    Why do folks reveal Profitable Strategies, are they NUTS?

    I've read some vile, unhinged stuff on this board. This is out of line. I have reported this and I am not easily provoked.

    Hi Bearbelly Mak's excellent Excel PRV tool does this. I've noticed that there are a lot of questions re. PRV. For me it was a pain to calculate PRV without the right tools - it was, shall we say, CPU intensive. I've been using Mak's PRV tool for a couple of months and it frees your mind...

    Trading stocks on unsual volumes

    Pro-rata volume (PRV), with a correlation table (showing expected volume by 30 minute increments through the day based on many normal days distribution) could be thought of as a leading indicator of volume for equities. The first derivative (positive rate of change) of volume in other words...

    Looks like I picked the wrong night to go out for a beer! Here's my hi-tech neural-net datamining hotlist review (from last saturday): <img src=http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=1368881>

    Dax

    Are you spreadbetting the DAX? You could exit at a FTT or the LTL or +10pts to start with. You need to maintain a neutral bias. Good luck.

    By any objective measure you appear to be having tremendous success - it's very inspiring. There is a sweet spot between manically compounding returns (and costs) and having a life outside of your investments. It is up to each of us to find that spot and this method is ideally suited...

    Extraordinary Popular Delusions & the Madness of ET

    Subjective? Well in that case you'd expect the charts of traders following the same rules to look very different. Do they? I think there is a body of work in higher mathematics that proves you only need 2 points to objectively draw a line and a third to define its parallel partner. A...

    Why do folks reveal Profitable Strategies, are they NUTS?

    What return (does $15M p.a. represent)? Who's capital is it? And a follow up question: how do you ensure that any trader who leaves does not continue to trade with your "confidential" methods? Imagine if someone else was going after your $15M, you'd be NUTS to let them leave...

    Extraordinary Popular Delusions & the Madness of ET

    Ah my dear, you have not had the fortune to meet a skilled and attentive Anna-tator. Some people project lines on charts in the deluded belief that they can coax price to stay within what they call a channel. When price doesn't cooperate they just draw some new lines and pretend they...

    Why do folks reveal Profitable Strategies, are they NUTS?

    LOL! $15M. That sounds like a big number but it is hard to tell out of context. I'm surprised you would take the time to talk to the amateurs here who eke a modest living picking up the scraps you high rollers leave on the table (who cares - if your clients are consistently beating the...

    Good debrief. I've had plenty of those days too :D A Forest level FTT does speak to you. You have to remain alert and patient: not too reclined though, as the good prices aren't available for long. All subsequent prices will give you grief in the retraces as price seems to go where the...

    I don't mean to drone on, but you really should do the work I suggested. Then you will notice a common feature of a lot of the moves that give a stock rank: volume(t)/volume(t-1) > 1. (2+ is good). Price moves all the time basis current supply and demand. You need volume to determine...

    Why do folks reveal Profitable Strategies, are they NUTS?

    I did not assert this. The point is even if people know your edge, use your edge and thereby prevent you from using your edge as you used to then you adapt to the present conditions. It is like the difference between saying "I always change lanes 300 metres from the junction, no matter what"...

    Why do folks reveal Profitable Strategies, are they NUTS?

    Maybe he gets a kick out of teaching people, letting others know how clever he is and enjoys writing. Anyway we all know the real pros at casinos operate an infallible system. They approach the winning high-rollers (they are easily identifiable with big piles of chips on the table in front...
