I like the functionalities of T2W website, Knowledge Lab and Traderpedia. However, I do spend a lot more time on ET.

Not sure how your post will solve my question. I'm profitable doing discretionary trading, but I'm now searching for some hints on how to rank different markets based on the number of days in a trend and the volatility within that trend. I currently do not know any method to quantify such...

Any other input? I guess for those who know, don't want to post their secret. I can understand. Any hint from the pro? TIA!

I trade the US market for stocks.

pbw, I sent you a PM a while back, should I just wait for your reply on 23rd? Lack of response from you right away could lead people to think that this hookup thingy is not for real. I'm bumping the thread here.

Thanks FaderTrader, I've tried this, and not be able to make money by creating a mechanical strategy for it. However, I personally can trade this method and make money. Though not what I'm looking for, but thanks for the input.

Thanks agpilot, that would be a quick fix, but not exactly what I want to measure. It would be good for stock picking, but I want to rank different markets based on one measurement. Much appreciate for your input.

No, I'm not asking how to determine volatility beforehand, I'm asking how to find the trendiness of a market from the historical data. Imagine from the 2005 data, I know that S&P doesn't trend a lot, and the most trendy it can get from point A to point B would be 3 days and assume the 3 days...

Thanks man. When you mean return of the market, do you mean the moving 10 days return in my example? I think I should restate my question: Is there ONE measurement to rank the markets by the 10 days trendiness and how volatile within that 10 days? Imagine if I know the 10 days will be...

I know some ETers have developed their own trendiness indicators. For example, acrary knows how to measure the trendiness of any market based on the number of days a trend persist (I hope I understand him correctly). I wonder if anyone knows how to combine trendiness and volatility. For...

Yes, if you are really good in trading. I doubted. To me, the only way to pull that off is to trade futures, not with stocks, unless you are the penny stocks master. The fact that you have to ask such a question reflects that you have no idea what you are doing, and what's doable in the...

TA experience, you just need to practice more, and be creative with the materials. My problem is not I don't know my stuffs, it's more like I want to nail the exam. I'm pretty bad in writing exams. Whatever company you are working on, it's meaningless. Big name companies only sound good on...

All I can find from the CMT website's shopping cart is the books for the exam, not the practice exam. Any taker? I will feel so embarrassed if the info is really on the website...

Thanks indahook, but... I really can't find any practice exam on the site. Can you point me to the exact link... I know it sounds stupid, but I really don't see it... Thanks!

CMT's Level 1 registration will be closed soon, however, I don't think I have time to really study for the exam. Despite that my free time is limited, I do believe that I've known most if not all the course materials for all CMT levels. That's why I'm tempted to take the exams, just because I...

I got this error message, and I'm using the server address: news.newsstrike.com No reply from server Maybe the server is offline or maybe teamspeak is not running on it I haven't used the service for while, just want to relogin again, not working. Any idea? Thanks.

I confirmed that with the NYSE Summation Index.

Been there, done that, starting with $7k. 1. I have an account at IB. 2. I trade penny stocks, but only trade those that have exploded up and crashed down, then I buy the bounce. Only use daily charts. I made more money on penny stocks than playing large cap stocks this way in a very...

You should consider joining a prop futures shop, I think you should do well in it. The day you get rich, hire me :-). I know that's what I would do once I'm done learning from the fund. Or maybe I would just trade my own account.

I guess I'm lucky then, I later brought in some prop boys' resumes to the fund, 3 of them passed the interview process, and they are still filling orders for the fund. They got in not because of me, my fund would interview any prop trader. There were times I didn't understand why did some good...
