I posted the list of ETF's earlier in the thread. I think you have those. From that ETF list specifically I like to focus in on the VIX, Steel, IYT, XLF, XLB. On the commodity side, Copper and Bonds. And of course the currencies. You can throw the yield curve in there as well.

I tried to look for an example that best describes this. The singularity effect seems to be something that approximates what I'm talking about. "At the Singularity Summit a few days ago, both Ray Kurzweil and Eliezer Yudkowsky made the point that progress measured by exponential advances...

Are you talking about option spreads or futures spreads? If futures, the number lines work even better then on flat price. Honestly, the number lines drive everything in ACD because if you think about it, all the number lines are is the sum total of all the daily ACD values. And since...

Gold confirmed on my number line on Jan 14th. Up 80 handles since the confirmation.

Neither. I would describe both as second tier firms. Group One is a market making firm and really more of a technology firm then a trading firm. Geneva is also highly algo driven and is also looking primarily for programmers. Geneva is primarily futures. The firms are very different. It...

It's not really a problem. Very little volume trades overnight which is why there can be such large moves. Like I said, you need to find ways to compensate for that. Also, I don't think there is as much manipulation as you think. The spot market drives energy prices. You get a lot of...

No. Do a search in the archives and you'll get a lot of info on this. The 5 day has nothing to do with the 30 day. It's a momentum number line. It either "confirms" or "rejects" various A levels. The 5 day has significant readings at the +/-5 level. They rarely track the 30 day as both...

Again, sorry for the late response. So another good question and one we've talked a lot about in the archives. What I've said before is the number line is not a buy and sell indicator. And the number line does not get you into trades that break out on fast breaks without some sort of...

Honestly, number lines are extremely time consuming because it's qualitative work, not quantitative. You can try to skimp on time if you want, but then you get the old, "get what you pay for" problem. Usually an hour to hour and half a night just do them. Then you have to analyze them and go...

Ammo, sorry I didn't get back to this. I've been swamped lately. I haven't updated these number lines in a few weeks. I'll try to update them this weekend.

Ferdinand, I've been on this board for 12 years. I HAVE named names. I HAVE gotten guys on ET hired at those firms. I continue to do it. I use to run a regional office for a prop firm in Chicago for 6 years. And many traders from this board traded there. I know the Chicago prop firm...

Damn, some of my greatest hits. Good stuff. :)

And why is there trading floor empty? Don't answer that. Best deal around? Come on pal, there are firms in Chicago paying guys 500k plus with 60k to 75k in base pay while you are training, not even placing trades, with full benefits and a chance at becoming a partner if you do well. No, that...

I'm beginning to think this is all Fisher does is buy dips in oil. :)

Spreads I trade the futures.

Which one, I've got 100's. LOL.

Good lord...heating oil.

Simple, trade off the weekly and intra-day levels. Weekly's work outstanding on huge gap events.

I'll apologize to Nitro if he can link to the post on this thread where he said he covered. Otherwise it's a joke. Both Rearden and Nitro know me and I don't harass people in the trading threads. But this thread is so far beyond bizarre I just can't explain it. I know Nitro. But it's like...

No, this was one of my first energy books I bought. It turns out it was the best one as well.
