    Pivot Levels

    So basically it sounds like you look at the place where you will be putting your exit stop (one tick below lowest low) and then calculate how many points you want to risk. Then wait for the bar with the higher low to completely form. After that has occurred you place the limit order for entry...

    Pullback Entry Strategy

    In response to your question on the other thread: --Thanks for taking the time. I don't like entering pullbacks at all (it's a long story), but if I did, I'd want to be very careful that I wasn't entering the wrong way on a reversal. --I will try to be as careful as possible. There...

    Pivot Levels

    Hi Db, Once the bar with the higher low forms, do you enter at the market on the next bar? Or perhaps do you use a limit or a stop to enter at the next bar? I'm trying to work on a pullback entry strategy for myself, and would appreciate any help you can give me on nailing a reversal...

    Pullback Entry Strategy

    I have been a "breakout" kind of trader forever. I have been wanting to add a "pullback" type strategy to my arsenal for quite some time. I have been thinking about the rules for entry, exit, and initial stop for a while and have come up with some ideas. I just thought I would type them out...

    Entering stocks in strong uptrends...

    I have been using Prophet.net's real time charts. I haven't had more than a couple of problems over the past year or so. Stability is very nice, I bet a lot depends on your computer. I know others have crashing problems, but I leave it run most of the day and have crashed maybe once or twice...

    anyone trade single stock futures?

    Hi Def, Since you are reading this thread, I have a couple questions about trading SSFs with my IB IRA account. Can I sell short SSFs with my IRA account? If so, will short stock be delivered to my account on expiration, or will there be a forced rollover or something? I would like...

    www.prophet.net will work for that. I know you can do it with their java charts. You might be able to do it with their snap charts as well. Banker

    I did not enjoy "My Own Story" nearly as much as Leferve's book. I do not plan on ever reading it again. My two cents, Banker

    Noisy power supply fan

    Thanks for the tip. Where do I oil the fan? Do I have to take the fan apart? Is there a risk of shock when taking the power supply apart? Do I even need to take the power supply apart? So many questions..... :confused: Banker :confused:

    Noisy power supply fan

    Well I put my ear to the problem. It's definitely the power supply fan. The CPU fan is running fine. On the website you sent me to, it suggested a Silencer 400 ATX Power Supply for my Dell Dimension 4400. This is listed as $135 That might be maybe a 1/3 of the value of the entire PC...
