    Van Tharp's Position Sizing Game

    it's yer subparcap utility efficiency. I use btwn quarter to half % of total acct equity, while actually only risking up to a third of my cap utility (0.075-0.15%) to make 50 bps avg daily expectancy ROE daily (annualizes to 125%). ROI% per play is typically mid/high double - low triple digit...

    Renko Charts - How to day trade ?

    it's narrow range periods, not fast days - my algo kills it during fast trend runs. Looking for a way to disengage it during chop zone w/o intervening manually, on auto-pilot.

    Minimizing noise in Trend identification?

    Timeframe?

Logic is super clear, already got it in NT/TS automated - backtests are stellar phenomenal but based on flawed bar OHLC parameters. Using discretionary manual execution for now, need to replicate intrabar entry logic across...

    Minimizing noise in Trend identification?

    remarkable how simple directional trading is when fog of time is lifted. Simplicity is hidden in plain sight. The lens through which the 95-99% are looking @ price action - is it any wonder as to their results? Path to Salvation lies through Valley of Darkness along the Trail of Breadcrumbs
