    I agree, for you there is no edge. For others who can use the pool extraction algorithm, they are following the textual outline asociated with the illustration. Some use it mechanically and others use the ATS versions.

    trend following & dealing with retracements

    As you see the OP posted once again to fill in a little more about where he is located. It is unfortunate for him. THe CW setting is very hard to bypass. Danto, at Columbia, taught a philosophy of history course and covered, comprehensively, most of the bases. Your role assignment for...

    trend following & dealing with retracements

    I'll step my comment up a notch. The OP didn't get it to do a reversal at the top of the long where a new max price value occurred. (Where he was in his post) Had he done that he could have collected the profits of the long diagonal I drew. (thin light green line) Then he would have...

    Designing and Building a Profitable Automated Trading System

    As spyder indicated in SCT trading there is no chop. This thread came about from Scott's indest in programming using indicators. As previously seen in the failure of the SPM mechanical signals generated "chop" was a severe handicap that defeated profitability. Several kinds of chop are...

    See attached The attachment is an annotated code sheet. I annotated with underlined bold italics in paragraphs. If anyone is coding the work here using the logic illustration and Scott's XLS sheet then you have the references in the once over lightly that I did. I am not going to do...

    Technical Strategy

    I feel that it is very good to embark on a study of self consciousness. I understand that my perspective on things is uncommon and usually brushed aside. However, it is possible to have a coherent disposition. Some times I post the OODA diagram just to make evident the many factors that...

    Scott we're in the same boat. It's funny and not funny at the same time. i got to enjoy what I thought would be a little banter on a check up....BUT.... back to the dressing changing routine yet once again. I'm sure you will enjoy the coding and then we can begin to cycle the code on and...

    Designing and Building a Profitable Automated Trading System

    This wraps up the first pass on indicator trading. the illustration shows how the XLS book entitled Signal chart (1) provides the binary signals to logic which, in turn, feeds a trade platform. There are several ways to feed a trade platform. This platform would have a "T" for trade and the...

    Designing and Building a Profitable Automated Trading System

    Here's the exit reversal logic. As may be seen on the annotated charts I do daily, there are times when we reverse because of an entry signal preceing an exit signal. There is an advantage to taking the earlier signal; to get on the "right side of the market". But soimetimes we need to...

    Designing and Building a Profitable Automated Trading System

    To code the volume suppression circuit just make and OR circuit with the binary inputs from the XLS chart columns V W and X. the XLS chart created by Scott is entitled Signal chart (1). To code up the entry signals use an OR with inputs from the AE and AF going into an OR. these are the...

    Designing and Building a Profitable Automated Trading System

    There are a few tests of using this ATS for trading given days. We are using one specific day to be able to compare how logic improvements work on this day. So far we have several tests.. The above suppression logic can be added to the bunch. We can see that we set the defaults to...

    Designing and Building a Profitable Automated Trading System

    Here is the initial beginner level suppression circuit. The objective of the logic is to have a "gating" signal that prevents an entry or reversal signal from the STF5 or an signal from the STF14 which covers a trade. To make clear what the input and output looks like it is a good idea to...

    One of the aspects of trading for those who follow the CW is prediction. Historically in your past and in that of those you worked with then was the CW aspect of prediction The nature of what you and these people did to build their minds was, in part, prediction based and prediction is part...
