i'd have to agree with this. the main math skills i use are addition and subtraction. you can pretty much cover any multiplication needs if you're good at addition . . .

seemed like the place needed a post . . . cows coming off an ID/NR4, ID/NR7 . . . <img src=http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=702289>

at long last . . . a stock chart if i'm posting an equity chart, it must be about the end of the road . . . <img src=http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=690448>

one knows the night before what the expectation for the coming day is, it is not done after the fact. based on the condition of the ROC (and pivot#), certain price movement is anticipated, but sure . . . price action has to confirm it, not going about this blind if you will look back at...

this is as good as it gets paying attention to the ROC pivots on a daily basis will help lead you into these setups there was a "buy day" on Friday, and a "sell short day" on Tuesday. doesn't always work out quite that well, but when the Mo has it going . . . <img...

skyfisherman, looks as though you posted a link to the website, i've never gone that route, doesn't appear to work too well . . . probably better to save the chart to your machine (if getting charts from Barchart), then post it from there but you do get more variety posting the link . . .

you been eating alot of sugar today? no, that's not the chart layout i use and i don't use Barcharts.com . . . (to my knowledge they still don't offer volume ???), but they are nice clear charts for posting examples i don't look at any indicators during the day except for a 20 period ma...

hello "inandlong", thanks for the note, most kind you know, sometimes the ROC and your kind of setups work together, or to say it better, the NR7 & related are good filters for the ROC but the ROC can also be used to highlight low volatility points. on the Euro here, 2 days ago we had...

thanks for the expression, TraderD in regard to your question . . . remember you define the "game" and so, set the requirements. but in general, the better quality setups will have what you call "retraction". using the latest hogs as an example, its nice to see the price moving down for...

ideally, one would like to see a "buy day" test down first, and a "sell short" day test up first with this in mind, its important to note the location of the day's pivot #. if we are looking to buy, as in the hogs today, we want to see the pivot # below the market, and look to use it as...

okay, i can take a hint . . . here's a nice equity chart -- soybeans beans had made new Mo lows, so after 2 days up on the ROC, looking for them to test back down it was all down today . . . <img src=http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=672900>

no follow-thru here, but its good to look at one like this. even the ROC has its bad days. kind of had to figure, after 3 tries up this morning got nowhere, the Mo was gone <img src=http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=667016>

anybody see this jewel setting up ? appears to be some who were expecting it . . . <img src=http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=666344>

not radome at all . . . only Merchant thinking make it radome

my humble apologies there was not attempt to baffle, the chart was in reference your famous TMTTTADWSOIH chart, thought you might pick up on that right away i'm a bit slow . . . please excuse
