    The ACD Method

    In fact, I'll even add that I'll fade any popular pattern people like to follow if the number lines give me a tail wind. I find those are some of the best trades.

    The ACD Method

    I don't think Fisher has ever mentioned a pattern. At least not the standard ones you read about in technical analysis books. He believes in formulating a bias and then managing the risk around that bias.

    The ACD Method

    As someone who knows several people who own clearing firms, I can tell you that very little money is made from them. Clearing firms stopped making good money right about the time Fisher started his. That's when short term interest rates plummeted. Being that Mark at one time was the "largest"...

    The ACD Method

    I think the biggest challenge facing every trader is discovering their identity in the markets. Every trader has their own unique strengths and weaknesses. Unfortunately, it's not just a matter of focusing on one market, you kind of have to "date" a little first. It's sort of like just saying...

    The ACD Method

    Back on March 4th I posted this. Nice follow through huh? It's the only commodity holding a bid in this strong dollar environment.

    The ACD Method

    I read "The Asylum" as well. Great book. I don't think 24 hour markets have changed anything with ACD. In fact, I think ACD works better today then it did 10 years ago. I'll quiz you on that. Why do you think I would say that? Here's a hint, the answer actually lies in some of my most...

    How do you trade Eurodollar Packs & Bundles?

    Hey J-dog, guys stopped trading those in 2007. LOL. That market is long gone. The only edge in that game was trading the basis. Burghardt goes into great detail in both of his books but again, they were written 10 years ago! :)

    If it's in chit chat, anything goes. You can talk about gay midget porn on that thread if you want. EVERYTHING is on topic in chit chat.

    The ACD Method

    That's not new. He has had that on there for awhile. He hasn't done one in 3 or 4 years. I hope the fact that they left that up there means he would still like to do one again.

    Fading Yen - It has gone parabolic

    This might give you some colorful background on the OP. He has a few journals where he blew out 100% of his account or close to it. He over leveraged, he went for broke, with no trading plan. You can read it all here. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=239446 It...

    The ACD Method

    A little FYI, implied volatility on the RUT made new all time lows today at 13.97. Took out the 2007 lows. The all time low in the VIX is still around 9 from 2007. Act accordingly.

    Fading Yen - It has gone parabolic

    There are no haters on this thread. We've all given the guy good advice. Disagreeing with one's position does not make one a hater.

    Yeah, no one is looking for that job in NY right now. LOL.

    Is settlement price a fraud?

    There is no fraud. RUT has the highest dispersion of settlement prices of any product and you should know that. It's 2,000 different stocks that don't all open at the same time and their opening print creates a synthetic artificial price that becomes the settlement. If you are concerned about...

    The ACD Method

    Nice try! Hey, you know there are no wrong answers. Anywhere from 1 to 3 hours would make sense. Fisher starts his on Sunday night. You have to use something that makes sense to you. You don't know what kind of meds I'm on so you better not trust just what I say. :)

    The ACD Method

    Weekly A ups are rare but on large moves, they happen. Weekly's start over every Monday. No rolling.
