    E-Mini questions, please help!

    Margin is the denominator and normalize the proportion. Per contract, you double your capital every 30 points/contract. Usually the daily range can be made As a profit segment(s)) in the first couple of hours. Usually this is over 1/3 of the margin required to double. Stocks are not...

    Market efficiency

    I only have personal experience from 1957 onward. In stock trading, the volatility has been about the same. In terms of making money (my standard) the opportunity has shifted in the direction of making the same money in less lengthy intervals. This affects the most important variable in...

    I see four solutions that you noted. Only one was not forwarding. To make it easy for me, I recommend that we start a tree for dispersing the CD's. We did this out of Colby Kansas to start small scale alcohol in the US. They used a room to copy and mail those videos (the tapes that plug...

    New study says: Technical Analysis is garbage

    Do you have the ability to define what the statistically significant boundary is? If you saw some results, could you judge their significance. I'm sure that I am a nobody. On the otherhand, occasionally, taking the lesser travelled route can be a branch point in moving forward. In...

    Best there is

    How you feel during trading is something that comes from below the neck. The fear, anxiety and anger that you feel is from the ancient "survival" syndrome that is now inborne. The source of this NEED to survive comes from the simple huge danger you are always exposed to. Always "knowing...

    Strange Attractors

    If you ever get into humor, you may wish to read a very cool book written by Miran Lipovaca. He lives in Ljubljana, Slovenia. He writes up a RDBMS called Haskell. The English version of the book is entitled: "Learn You a 'Haskell' for Great Good". I think wordie is very cool too. But...

    Strange Attractors

    With respect to trading using DCS and the other more appropriate control systems is duck soup. The arrangement is to keep records. In MADA, the most important money making records are the D and second A records. This explains why OODA doesn't work very well and it explains why most...

    Jack Hershey Method Since 2008

    FF: You have made a lot of good suggestions. I see some risks for the POA's. I also feel I would have to modify my display on the trading screen to deal with lessening these risks. The other screens involved are where I annotate. On those screens, presently, I do not make symbols...

    I liked the 2 x 2 = 4 (The new multiplier of the normalized fact.) The shortcoming of the test problem is that, through errors, a correct solution can appear. 2 + 2 as Jamie Dimon would say "also morphs" into 4. I used to discuss the SAT's with ETS. They wre convinced the tests meant...

    Several people introduced aspects of logic theory here. We found the OP is not disciplined. We also found that the market's operation is not understood in terms of logic. One of the greatest things separating the herd from the specialist is that some specialists use logic only as the...

    Briefly speaking. TA is the study of market variables. A side show is PA which truncates to just price action and, therefore, is a lagging technical abstraction which is not very accurate or effective or efficient. The term "relative data base" is very accurate. For systemmic...

    Can you really trust a computer to trade for you?

    you may wish to consider learning that your entry and your exit are identities in software programing. They do have one periferal (sp) difference, however. You would have to think to discover it. This binary difference is the sentiment. You probably are advanced beginner of beginning...

    Can you really trust a computer to trade for you?

    You are pretty much stuck in a bad place by your beliefs. (Who knows how you got them). For position trading stocks, the beginning of a trade is NOT at the end of a day. Similarly the end of a trade is NOT at the end of the day. As you can see, brokers do NOT accomodate making money...

    Jack Hershey Method Since 2008

    Let me delve a little deeper. Why not do it live for 2 or 3 days means????? What do you mean by the words you posted? Many years ago I posted prints. These are called "photoshopping" by the dead heads on ET. Did you have in mind that I would post daily prints of 1 account or 10...

    Questions to Jack Hershey

    I was unable to get the video to work. my comment is probably off the wall. For any mind building, drills are the key. Repeating a task is best. Both of you are really the best qualified to make suggestions to those who are now getting on with mind building. I simply cannot insert...

    How many points is reasonable?

    You were correct, Since this came up for you as a question from within, why would you switch to find your answer somewhere else? You have to just help yourself understand what you see. Appraise. The market is "telling" YOU the size of things. You do coding. The market is...

    How many points is reasonable?

    To the OP. You may compare what you trade to any other instrument. A trading system can be applied to any market if it is liquid. If you appraise ES, you can evaluate what I am about to say. Margin is the capital you have to trade. Market movement is measured relative to margin...

    Are traders particularly superstitious?

    You're young and you started posting by recounting your limited performance (in your terms). The CW generally rules in what survives here. A complaint can eliminate a quality comment or a person surviving being listed on some list. Historically, there was a time when contributions were...

    TA debunked

    I am a strong TA advocate. As has been said, stockopedia is OBLIVIOUS. The standard of performance is the market offer. I cut and pasted everything below this colon: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote from the1: If a person...
