Edit : QT and BT This'll probably sound pretty rookie-like, but has anyone developed a good strategy to place a magic tick limit order quickly using BT and QT? I find accessing the high of the strong bar and placing the magic tick limit in the DOM window in BT to be very cumbersome...

That's what I meant in my post. I guess it was a poor explanation. That up swing you are talking about I would get more confirmation by it hitting the now resistance that was support. -Tech

This is my focus right now... trend breaks. For #1... in an uptrend with a higher high and then a break of trend, I will wait for a retrace to the old trend support which is now resistance. Although I haven't decided anything about the swing high where resistance is hit relative to...

Thanks Mark, I'm just now figuring this out. :D Everything is now becoming more solid in my learning. Seems so logical now, but it is funny how something can be right under your nose and still not see it. Anyway, this is a breakthrough in my learning process. -Tech

As a newbie, I thought I'd speak on behalf of over-trading. Even though the AHG concept is simple in its roots, there opens up many potential trades throughout the day for me. Especially since I'm still trying to discriminate between the good and not-so-good signals. What's been keeping my...

A ... of course. The process of elimination is painful. So many dead-ends. I feel like I've bypassed so much trail and error now. -Tech

Welcome back Anek. Looks like that W has a decent break... so far -Tech

This system is very enlightening. It has helped my trading immensely. the logic of it strikes home. What is Anek's PnL? Who cares. To satisfy my curiosity is how well the system works for me. We all know the posters who are trying to sabotage the thread. And we can all recognize the new...

Thanks AAA. Ironically, historical is accurate. Except for today. Thanks for your help. -Tech

AAA, One more thing. Today the Paintbars are showing complete inaccuracy in relation to previous days. Sounds like a bug. Also, lower Paintbars always show as really thin. Is there a setting you know of to expand them to the height of the pane? btw, I changed the script to show...

Hey, that's great! Thanks. I'll throw it up and see if it sticks. Thank you kindly. -Tech

Thanks AAA. I thought I'd get a solid answer. -Tech

Anybody have an idea how to create a marketEmotion indicator in QT? It's a long shot, I know. -Tech

Is this in response to my post? If not, sorry for jumping to conclusions. I meant a failed inverse head and shoulders breakout only to fail and reverse. It's no longer a dragon in my book. -Tech

Anek(anyone), Is a failed inverse head and shoulders a viable pattern? Nice little HS fail move this morning on NQ. I didn't catch it, but I've seen these before. Seems to me that they need attention. -Tech

Try analyzing today's chart like did. It showed me the contrast between what I see after the fact and in realtime. -Tech

You hit the nail on the head! It is an amazing obstacle. I'm sure I'll learn a lot about myself. I expect it won't come over night. -Tech

I tried to fairly analyze the NQ today. If I traded like this in realtime with a disciplinary stop at most recent swing H/L, I would have cleaned up. But instead my eyes and mind seems too be lacking in discipline on many fronts. I guess it is all part of the education. Chart is analyzed...

Major frustration.:mad: I can't believe I'm losing money n NQ today. I think I move my stops too tight too early. Seems today the min logical stops are between 3 and 5 points. I think discipline is my #1 objective. -Tech

I have to agree. But, on the other hand, this thread is evolving due to the over-emphasis of its original point. I have to admit I got distracted, but I should be able to filter what I don't need and concentrate what I know I should be working on. Also, I believe a little deviation would be...
