The real reason for this drop was a completed Elliot wave structure coming into a Sam Seiden supply/demand zone on a daily chart. When this happens...watch out !!:eek:

to the OP: On Betfair, you can trade all kinds of bets just like you can trade stocks, forex, futures etc. Quotes in betting markets have trends just like stocks and there are a number of people, mostly in the UK, who make a living trading (not: betting) horse races, dog races, football...

Great trading MFBreakout ! Learning ACD is definitely on my to do list. You write that you also employ market profile. What do you look at specifically ? I have studied MP for a quite some time and think it is a good concept to look at the markets, however I only look at the levels....the...

My favorite setup - not always easy to see in real time - this one is from hindsight- but if you can catch one of these, the R:R is usually awesome ! The entry is a short at the intersection of both trendlines. Also note the measured / two legged move of ~ 17 pips to the intersection. You...

Makes sense, most reversals, especially on smaller time frames, fail, not only Al B. says that. :)

Wide Tailz, are you referring to these guys here: tradestocksamerica.com ? Did some searching in your old posts ;-) I will have to agree with the topic of this thread: day trading sucks big time. It wears you out in the long run.

Shopster, you seem to be the master of DBs and DTs...nice journal ! I for one have simply too often shorted and bought DTs/DBs only to watch the market continue in its direction. Seems like with 30+ years of experience, you intuitively know which ones to trade and wich not ?! Or are there...

Well, what else is a WTI-Brent spread trader doing other than picking a direction before he enters a trade ? The spread can go up or down, just like the WTI/USD ("outright") trade. So what's the benefit ? Does the spread trend more smoothly ? Is there less chopp ? Or are you better...

Is it easier to become a winning poker player than a profitable trader ? Lately I have asked myself whether I should have invested my time in learning poker instead of learning to trade.

At what level is your A up on EUR ? Thanks.

Right off the intraday POC + hidden divergence on my stochastics...textbook long for me but asleep at the wheel. :confused:

Sam Seiden teaches highly useful stuff. I light bulb went on for me after I looked into his concepts. If you only look for setups at these levels, your chances of a profitable trade go up dramatically. You need something that triggers this trade at the specific zone though. This...

DerSlutharsch = The Slutass ?! :D

Very insightful, thanks for sharing your wisdom. One of the few quality threads on ET !!
