johnbob i understand what you're saying but do you think that waiting for the bar to close will lead to many poor entries? i cannot find a good example right now but lets just use yesterday's 2:45 bar as an example. look at how much of a move you would have missed if you waited for that bar to...

okiedokie romik. believe and do whatever you want buddy. Quote from romik: B1, question here, as most that eyeball intraday charts, I've noticed that price starts to shift when hourly/240 approaching closing bar (smaller TFs as well), right now there is a possible long grail on the hourly...

who sees a divergence on 15 min right now?

romik the 1145 (EST) bar that just closed is what i'm talking about. in hindsight there is no grail because the bar closed at 1400. but there was a grail when price traded at 1399.5 between 1130 and 1145

i would love to tell myself that all i need to do is hold on to winners longer, but i know that a day where the market drops 10 points straight down and then climbs 14 points straight up is very unusual.

did they come to a conclusion on that thread on why it's inferior to scale out but not inferior to scale in? i bet you the next time i try to hold on to a winner longer it will reverse on me. :)

sheesh i only got 3 points from a 14 point run. i have got use better exit signals on winners...

it looks like i don't have a problem with cutting losses but i do have a problem letting profits run. interpretation: pain from losing a gain > pain from a straight loss
