    Fast You’re right! If market conditions permit I plan to execute more trades whether early on or later in the session. However, I will not be as aggressive as most traders I know but rather take a conservative approach and select good signals. As to your recommendation regarding...

    No trades today. I was able to stay disciplined and not play in the tight range and chop early on. However, I didn’t execute on some entry signals in the afternoon session. For the remainder of February I want to focus on discipline and placing trades. Discipline encompasses a lot more...

    Executed early on but trades were via simulator. Wasn’t able to get much going later in the session. Trade#1 – (Live) Tried avoiding the multi-hour ranging as I’ve seen this pattern several times in the past. However, I wanted to push the envelope on this trade, I was hoping we would...

    Pirolmaniac, I'm going to reply to your first post! Since you have several questions I decided to post a temporary image of my screen setup at http://home.houston.rr.com/aarondwashington/ That image will answer all your questions. I don't track other markets (e.g. debt market, currency...

    DB, Thanks for pointing out to me that my S3/R3 levels corresponded to your S4/R4. I was able to make the necessary correction after fully reviewing it and the website JackDaniel provided proved valuable too. The spread sheet reflects the wrong calculation and for those of you that use...

    Wasn't able to really get anything going today. A lot of signals late morning and in the noon session but I didn't act on any. Stopped early today because I couldn't make quick decisions.

    Fast I'm not sure if you know, but I'm not a disciplined trader. Truthfully, I lack a lot of discipline and self control. My goal for February is to stick with the daily plan and continue developing my discipline and self control. I plan to do this by executing no more than 2-3 live...

    I was able to follow the rules today and stayed discipline with my trading. Because of the tight range mid-day I switch to CHERRY-PICKING mode later in the session and remained highly selective. Trade#1 – (Live) Got long after price broke out above the 1126.50 area, I wanted to be in by...

    I'm going to research my S3/R3 formulas and figure out why I have a large gap between 2 & 3. Thanks for the insight!

    S/R

    Well, I've seen different variations and calculations for computing s/r and intermediary levels between them but I can't really speak intelligently about those other variations. In short, I've grown accustom to my formula and calculations and found them to be reliable.

    S/R

    DB I too rarely use my S3/R3 levels, however when price decides to trade outside of s/r levels 1 & 2, I immediately focus my attention on the next midpoint & S3/R3 level as a potential stopping point (they’re on my spread sheet just in case). From my personal experience, when the...

    Trade#1 – (LIVE) Took trade on impulse and I was hoping price would correct but it was obvious the bears were winning. No real signal and I didn’t even look at my market breadth indices. All the internals we’re negative and in the red but I wanted to get long for some reason. *Long...
