LQDT appears a little light on the 65 day average volume. Quote.com has it listed as 138,000 shares. Since I use a minimum 200,000 shares for a 65-day average volume, I have not added LQDT to my Final Universe at this time. Good trading to you. - Spydertrader

I'm no Guru - far from it. I slug it out each day in an effort to make a living just like the rest of you do. I have my share of mistakes - some of them quite public - just like everybody else. To allay your concerns over closing the Journal, I plan to keep Journal Two going until the end of...

:D :D No. LOL. I normally don't trade any equities on FOMC days. On the other hand, ES performs spectacularly on FOMC days. Tomorrow, I look forward to returning to the world of Equities once again. - Spydertrader

Just a friendly reminder about the FOMC today at 2:15 PM Eastern Time. - Spydertrader

As you continue to read through the posts in Journal One, you'll arrive at the point in time where I altered (ever so slightly) the methods with respect to creating three lists. At that time, you'll understand perfectly how DTLK made the list. Yes, technically, ALY should make it in...

I don't use Tradestation, but you might try altering the smoothing length to see if doing so alters your indicators. - Spydertrader

Actually, I little higher than that today based on Price and Indicators settings (See Attached Chart). However, I did not trade GROW today, so these observations occur in hindsight. Nicely done. - Spydertrader <img src=http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=1205437>

I spent the vast majority of the day monitoring the ES, so I apologize for not posting sooner. To echo the comments of dougcs, tomorrow is an FOMC day. Please, excerise caution if you decide to ignore the rule prohibiting equities trading on such days. As a beginner, no. I would not have TIE...

I understand your concerns, but 'Dry Up Volume' isn't a single number. Believe me, I conducted an exhaustive search and experimentation program looking for the one formula which would unlock the key to Dry Up Volume calculation. No such formula exists. Since we use statistics to capture 98% of...

I apologize for missing these posts earlier ... :D :D :D Nicely done rb. I appreciate you posting your (and the many other traders who post their trades) contributions. Keep up the great work. - Spydertrader

I reviewed Time and Sales for LMIA today, and I see no trade for that size. I do see a trade for just over 7600 shares five seconds after this morning's open. Just to confirm, does your data provider 'bulk' all pre-market trades into the opening print? - Spydertrader

Both ISE and JOBS hit the top of their respective channels on Friday. ISE reached and exceeded Peak Volume levels by End of Day while JOBS came extremely close. Since both equities reached the tops of their respective price channels combined with volume reaching Peak levels, selling either on...

As a rookie, I still need to learn a few things. For example, I don't have it in my mind yet what Gaussians do for me, nor do I use Stretch / Squeeze at this time. I learn what tool to use, and in what context I should use it, as I move along. When I encounter some confusion with respect to...

14 actions (entry, exit or reversal) for 13.50 points ES (one wash trade). I began with the Opening Bar at 9:30 AM Eastern Time, and I stopped trading the ES at 2:00 PM Eastern Time. I'm not to SCT yet. I often leave the computer screens to chat on the phone, post to the ET Chatroom (or threads)...

Hello DKM. Glad to see you still out and about. I hope everything continues to go well for you. - Spydertrader P.S. Here is how I viewed the day unfold.

I've made similar mistakes to this in the past. Concerned over pennies, I missed moves in the dollars. Trying to finesse my way into a trade often resulted in less than desirable outcomes. I don't do that anymore :D - Spydertrader

Determining when to bank one's profits remains a matter of personal choice, risk assessment and individual trading style. While banking a portion of the profits early (and allowing the remaining shares to run) does provide some measure of assurance, doing so, also reduces one's overall gains. In...
