    How to Build an Automated Trading System

    I will get these in the mill by email to you and you can package them to get them up for support. I am a little unreliable at this time. I have to keep from getting puffy.

    How to Build an Automated Trading System

    Hi, I 'll be doing better as time passes. Just got up from a nap and have spent a fair amount of time today looking at a three screen display (two machines, separate feeds) that is doing a fairly good job. I have the thread's OP on BPA and BPR down. I am not going to put periods in between...

    How did TUMS get to be a moderator?

    Very good idea for your convenience. Anyone who does not care about the subject would do the same. I, unlike you and the position you state, care about the subject and so do other contributors to threads where the OP is in the mode of inquiry. How do these OP's who start threads feel...

    How did TUMS get to be a moderator?

    The people using it through transference or those who just adopt parts of it to add to their methods have determined that this would be redundant. From what I hear, some people require audited statements as part of their DD; as far as I know the classes of these people include: a...

    Markets Not Going To Crash Tommorow!!

    Repeat post just for the fun of it. In '87 things were fairly regular coming in to the 19th. tests that required 4 to 10 days to do had occurred 4 times leading into the 19TH so mostly every one in boutique type brokers had pulled long trades into cash prior to the 19th using the good...

    Anyone experienced the Oct 1987 crash?

    In '87 things were fairly regular coming in to the 19th. tests that required 4 to 10 days to do had occurred 4 times leading into the 19TH so mostly every one in boutique type brokers had pulled long trades into cash prior to the 19th using the good opportunities to do planned exits. Full...

    How to Build an Automated Trading System

    In "Think" (IBM, 1957) there was a discussion on people and their way of perceiving (sensing). Vertical and horizontal are the choices. To maintain a neutral bias it is best to work in a horizontal orientation. You can check a person's orientation by reading what they write or how they...

    How to Build an Automated Trading System

    I read the thread this am. To help out I'll post quite a few pics that will be helpful. I'll also cut and paste a few of your remarks to focus them a little from my perspective. Your initial posts are very informative and the two programming tools you use to convert business activity to...

    There is no such thing as price action.

    Not to go OT, but at some point all decisions to take action are, in the limiting case, the same for exit and entry. A decision is a response to an end effect of price excursion. Luckily, the trading platform has a particular type of trade that involves both an exit and an entry. This type of...

    There is no such thing as price action.

    I was watching vingbel and I was hoping he might get around to some key Q's. Sometimes, it is not fair to suggest what a person think about nor the order in which to develop a thought process. It turns out, as we now see, Slapshot has made a suggestion that works and slapshot takes...

    What Happened To The Quants In August 2007

    Yes it is true that Lo is not a student. His student days were at Wharton. His academic travels have been notable. Usually he juxtaposes an idea of his against a traditional precept. I am familiar with the faculty/student modus at Tech. Roughly speaking, they do the grind there and...

    "Unless something is settled, it's going to be a bloodbath Monday"

    Tuesday during hearings on hill moreso than Monday. The quality of the Q's will be the tells for the future. Recently, Congress gave Treasury an blank check and now it will begin to come home to roost. Treasury does not have any answers for any excellent Q's. Quandary time. Nice...

    Who is Jack Hershey and what's his method?

    Thanks for your considered response; I appreciate it. We do not do "tuning". We prefer to use binary vectors which assure certainty in the brief period in the future just before the Present and at the other side, the Present.

    Please commenton this Stop Loss Strategy.

    I put some blanks in the above. It looks like some sort of strategy. To constructively review the strategy I wanted to open it up a bit. I view a position as something price moves away from. It also moves away from anything on the other side of where price started from. At some point...

    There is no such thing as price action.

    Yes it is all there to see. Most look at two time segments: The present (as you mention) and the near past (see the PA pseudo "elegant" impression ving.. has). I prefer to look at two time segments as well: the present and the near future. You raise the use of orders as a purposeful...

    Who is Jack Hershey and what's his method?

    FYI We archive scripts in various places. There are many many script writers. The scripts are used as add ons in various platforms that do not have the appropriate software support. This is being pointed out to you. Below, in green, are the basic characteristics of the three...

    There is no such thing as price action.

    So how do so many PA traders fail to look at the other two boundaries you didn't mention in your analogy? would you add those two boundaries to your analogy, please? I particularly liked how you discussed the dog changing his mind. you mentioned the mindless times of the dog too. What to...
