    The ACD Method

    First of all, I like that action. I like to see a number line going higher into lower lows. Having said that, again I think you are reading this wrong. The number line is a conditional statement. It's giving you an "if/then" statement. When the number line is outside the wings AND the...

    The ACD Method

    You might have to be a little more specific. Are you talking about if the 30 day conflicts with the monthly or 5 day or are you saying if the 30 day is strong but yet the market looks weak?

    By definition, intra-day trend following does not exist. At least not as trend following is usually defined. Day trading is the antithesis of trend following. Water and oil my friend, water and oil.

    I was the one who told this clown that changing the rules, even in favor of the trader, would NOT help guys pass the combine. I've told this to him 100 times. It's NOT, I repeat, NOT, the rules that are the problem. As soon as you guys understand this, this thread will come to a close...

    Lets go on the record, 3 ways you can be destroyed.

    No, you need to look at the empires. Go back through history and look at the leading reserve currencies. Yes the Deutsche Mark was a decent currency before the devaluation but the pound and the British empire dominated. The empires can manage their debt better because their currency is...

    The ACD Method

    I'm not sure what to tell you. But just so you understand, the number line is not a stock or a relative strength indicator. Just because the value is increasing does not mean the product is getting stronger. Think of the number line as a strangle with the wings at +9 and -9 and the values...

    Ok, so I got this bit wrong. Mea Culpa. They claim to have funded over 400 traders in 4 years with 76 last year and 47 this year so far. That's a lot more then I estimated. That's about 7 traders a month or two a week.

    The ACD Method

    I'm seeing oil has a confirmed QTR and Monthly A down as well as a confirmed 30 day negative number line. I'm not sure why you think the number line is firming. It's less negative but usually a firming number line is one where you are holding positive digits for awhile. I haven't had a...

    Hey King, if you're out there, that steel I left in your backyard, I'm going to need it now. :)

    are binary options just vertical spreads for dummies?

    The trades are similar but they are not the same. They make their money just like every other market maker, they sell the binaries above fair value and buy em below. No different then a market maker in AAPL options.

    Urgent, need help, unique situation, seeking prop shop

    Replace trading strategy with dealing narcotics and you are saying the same thing. Hey your honor, it wasn't my money or my drugs. I was simply the go between guy. Look, the good news is all this doesn't matter because that whole prop structure is over anyway and it's the high cost of...

    The ACD Method

    I think the daily is less important. I mean my open starts at 4pm which I guess synchronizes with New Zealand but I still don't like that. But it doesn't really mess up my charts.

    The ACD Method

    Hold on here. I'm not sure why the times would matter as long as the open is the same. I assume you score your charts by pulling up an intra-day chart and looking at the price action correct? Where your data provider cuts off the chart will impact slightly the ATR readings, but over time...

    options market making, seed capital

    Most the JBO's left the business. The new regulations made it insanely expensive to run a JBO and the profits just aren't there. FWIW, options on futures are given risk based margin that are similar to the haircuts you got in a JBO.

    Kudlow left CNBC a long time ago skippy. And again, I actually have more posts on ET being against QE then you and all your other aliases combined. I just want you to be factual. It annoys me deeply to agree with someone who can't string two facts together. For the record, the Fed made...

    No, dude you need to study history. I never said I was pro-war, you just make up shit as you go along because that is the primary tool of the ignorant. Not much of an erudite are you? You made two statements that are patently false, I corrected them. Time to get your prescription re-fill.
