I bought his course - a waste of money. You can learn more from Steve Nison's candlestick book that describes the 3-line break. As a trading strategy, I find it like most trend breakouts, in that the whipsaws take all your profits.

VT - I thought you had said in a previous post, either here or on MSN, that you were taking a break for a while, and I guess that's why it's been quiet in both spots - everyone probably went on to other things for a while, thinking that not much was going to happen until you were back.

Loved that show. But alas, all things must pass.

There's no divergence on the 1-min Stochastic. Does this mean you're taking the DT trade based on the fact that the DOW came up short on the DT ?

VT - I'm still trying to figure out your filter. For example, why would you have NOT taken the 1-min short at about 10:13 this morning ? Thanks

I've opened a room called "VisionTrader" and the password is "vt". Give it a try.....

VT, I noticed too, that Breakout's trades were on the 133 tick and did not necessarily follow all of your rules, so you should not be too worried that he had a bad day yesterday. This also goes to show that given any method, most traders are going to add their own twist to it and trade it...

VT, There are a few trades I've seen that you do NOT take (and that can be as important as the trades you DO take). For example, on Wed. June 25, there was a sell divergence trade at about 10:02am and another one at 10:25am. Can you explain why these were not taken ? Thanks.

As far as I'm concerned, nothing I've said is proprietary, because it was all said in their free public demo at a trade show. You didn't even have to pay for what I've told you. Yes, version77, about 6 points coming along alot less often, but that's part of the beauty. Following a 3-min is...

version77, you're right, you could have shorted at 15:58 for 2-pts on the 1-min chart divergence signal. Just to expand on the 1-min versus the 3-min issue, the TIMES method (of which VisionTrader's method is "similar" to) is based on the 1-min chart, with a 2-pt profit target and 2-pt stop...

I knew as soon as I posted that, that someone would ask what it is. I don't know if I should divulge something I paid $3000 to learn.... The "shoulder" is on the stochastic itself. Once it makes a little shoulder like this, without actually heading back up, then take the trade when it turns...

I'm beginning to really like adding the 3-min chart into the mix, with a 6-pt target. Today, on the 3-min, I show a divergence short at 9:33 EST good for 6 pts, and a "shoulder" trade (for those with some TIMES knowledge) at 12:57 EST good for 6 pts. Add in a few 2-pointers, and you've got a...

You're right, thanks. I don't spend enough time here to know these things.

VisionTrader, The reason I asked for the time of day that you take the trades is that your posts are time stamped several hours later. For example, your Good Morning Vietnam post today is time stamped for just before 1pm this afternoon. But I DO understand your time constraints. I've tried...

Right, Wally. See attached. I've tried to duplicate the same chart that VisionTrader last posted showing June 19. The Light Blue stochastic is VisionTrader's, whereas the Yellow one is mine. (sorry for the poor quality image - I've got to work on that) Again, sometimes you get fewer...

VisionTrader, Thanks for your posts. Most informative, and good luck. I followed the link in the TradeStation forum that you posted. (I took the test, and yes, I'm an idiot too.) With respect to the TIMES Course, I paid for half the course, while my friend paid the other half. He went...

I believe you can get up to two weeks of "minute" or "tick" data from eSignal, and up to a year or so of daily data. Beyond that, I haven't done it recently, but I used to get historical data by by going to "File" then "Download from HISTORYBANK.COM" in GlobalServer. The HISTORYBANK data is...

I got a hold of TraderBambu, and thanks for the info.

oddiduro - do you know if there is any way to get into TraderBambu's PalTalk room as a "watcher" for a day ? I promise to say nothing.

it only collects data while you're connected, so if you want night session data, you have to leave your computer on - otherwise you'll have a gap in price data until you turn your machine back on If you want only day session data, you can set that up by double clicking on the symbol in...
