Well was an uneventful day for my walk forward. Not a single trade was generated. The strategy I am currently forward testing is one that takes a trade about once every other day.. sometimes once every 3 days. It does not trade very often,but when it does trade its normally right. This is...

Well I took a nice long break from auto trading to gather my thoughts. Hoped it would help me see how the market worked... Now I am back and excited once again on my journey. I have a new strategy that I will be starting to walk forward tomorrow. Completely different than any strategy I...

Just got an email from the treasure hunting site. Appears they doing a promotion where any user you get to join and if they play and win a cash prize on a hunt you get 5%. So if they win $100 prize you get $5 just for having referred them... Here is my referal URL, join and check it out...

That online war game seems pretty cool

What do you guys do to stay busy during the slow parts of the trading day? I have recently been looking for sites where you can win money. Just started playing www.wildtreasure.com today. Win cash for being the first to solve online treasure hunts, seems interesting but challenging... anyone...

Lets say you and 3 other people form an llc to do xyz. The company makes a lot of money doing xyz, and instead of paying the money out to the members of the llc and instead of just keeping the money in the companies bank, you want to try and generate a return on this money. Can you invest...

only 4 days? I've seen long term losing systems not have a losing day for several MONTHS trading e-minis averaging 3 to 4 trades a day.... Even a bad system can have streaks of greatness

Unless something drastic happens I wont get a chance to enter positions in either company.

Big gaps in those stocks I was looking to enter this morning. Since today will no doubt be highly volatile, I have not taken a position yet. I will wait for the gaps to fill, or see how the market is towards the end of the day.

Will be going long TZIX and UEPS tomorrow morning. I had thought pretty long and hard about if I should open any new positions with the current market climate, but I have faith in my strategy. So lets see what happens.

wow.. I don't know what to say here... well I guess i'll get straight to the point. You should try googling PDT rule because you do not understand it. To be considered a day trade you must buy AND sell the same security in the same trading day. if you buy today and then sell at the open of the...

It was not time to get out of qgen yet, but it had a nice gap this morning. And with the market seeming fairly shaky, I decided to go ahead and get out. I sold at 19.59 for again of: +5.9% Total Gain Since Starting Journal: +42.43% Return on Trading Equity so far (ROI): +10.6% 11 winning...

Sold ALNY for 25.35 which is a gain of +.71% I was actually lucky to escape with a small profit in this one. It was down 12% at one point over the past few days. What makes this strategy work is it identifies times when its highly likely to start bouncing at least some. For this one I just...

Long qgen at 18.50

Never going to happen IMO

qgen has appeared on my list for tomorrow to go long

Walter, I'm finding that using a multi day time frame.. even if its short like 1-5 days like i'm doing is a bit easier to profit than intraday. As I'm sure you know most of my automated trading strategies I have worked on in the past were all intraday strategies. This is really one of my...
