Since I took part earlier in this discussion I feel the need to say the following, lest anyone thinks I maintain this "conspiracy theory" point of view. IMO: 1. None of this tracking individual accounts with purpose to trade against them happens on NASDAQ an regular basis and to any...

You mean they bought RIMM for their inventory all the way up 8 points, to provide insitutions with nice exit, then ate the losses? What selfless creatures... :D

froggie... those consipracy theories are not only wrong but also a sign of a mindset quite harmful for one's trading... IMO

Imagine, IMO - that description is as deep as you'll ever need... no book will give you exact idea of how to spot this kind of games; experience will however. First, this is live and ever-changing game, highly liquid situation. While that description I posted has general "quidelines", from...

soler, it's being shipped this week, I don't think anyone had a chance to view it yet. I'd expect first reviwes closer to the end of the next week at best. Meanhwile, will be glad to answer any questions about it. Basically, here is what I did there: First CD contains videoclips...

You made me re-live 1996-1998. 11K left in battered account, no other means to live on, no profession, no even right to work - talk about scared money! But hey, I know firsthand two things: 1. It's immensely hard and 2. It's doable. Cornered man is capable of much if he can function under...

1/2 is a figure of speech, I take it? In my encounters it's more like 1% - unless they avoid me :D Each time I speak at the Expo, there are probably 2-3 russian-speaking in the audience (that identify themselves); in e-mail exchange hardly 1-2 a year; in the room at different times there...

Thank you. Can't complain really... after two years of living horror got it right... Techniques of Tape Rreading has all the details of everything that happened during those two years and after, lessons learned, approach to trading etc... If interested, grab it in the library or a bookstore - I...

I didn't "get" into it... I invented it :D Half joking. Here is the story. Being fed up with combination of mafia and corrupted police in Ukraine, in 1996 came to Canada with visitor visa. Applied for immigration and, as a businessman from highly corrupted and criminal country, became a...

I've read about similar study at least three times over several years. I haven't run any kind of testing on it so can't cite anything negating the idea but I always wanted to ask this: If as study says then why not simply make money with no thinking involved: buy every close, sell AND...

Very true. Entire notion of evil market makers is nothing more than a sign of misunderstanding of the very nature of the market. MMs are part of trading landscape, part of that collective consensus formed every minute and reflected in every tick. This consensus is the market. A trader's job is...

You are welcome - just tried to make up for Brandon, aka Royal Pain in The-you-guessed-it-right :D Just kidding, Brandon is stand-up guy and great trader. Know him from 1998... I have utmost respect for all the survivors of brutal bear.

Good advice David. I fully agree with notion "do not try to make it your sole method of reading". Not only it's hard to tell the case where there is a readable behavioral pattern from just a fluke, similar on the surface but with no substance under it; it also ceased to be effective for...

Michael, this is Trade-Ideas engine, right. We added several setups of ours in co-operation with TI and prolonged trial to two weeks. The story is, we used to have our own for 4 years; then I saw TI's scanner and loved it so much that went to them with suggestion: we abandon ours and switch...

Steve, IMO: there are no secrets. There are no edges based on something conspired and hidden from others (well, fraudulent activities are but that's not the matter of discussion). Those tricks described above is simply one more piece to the puzzle. I don't believe one can trade solely on...

Thank you... yeah real time narration is reserved for scalp trades, couldn't do it with swing one :) I intend to do real time day trades videos as well, to bundle them up with The Master Profit Plan same way as I did with scalping course. We pioneered video format for education in 2001, not...

I see video format as an educational tool is catching up :) Let me throw one more. Brandon, forgive me for stealing a little of your thunder - not all of it, mind you, since you speak with no accent :D This is a descriptrion of a swing trade done on NQ, day by day, thinking process and...

--- continued--- 3. Using big order size for attraction This is a directly opposite scenario. When a player has a big position to sell and he senses some buyers are looking for a size to buy, he can try and display big size in order to attract a buyer by opportunity to build his position...

The following is an excerpt from printed manual enclosed with video course How to Scalp Any Market devoted to scalping the NASDAQ equities. I'll break it down in parts for readability. Hope it helps. 6.3 Market Participant Behavioral Patterns Given all that is said above about Level 2...

Got it, thank you... new site version is being mounted not as smoothly as we would like it to. Will be fixed today, sorry about that
