so I download the latest version of Sierra Charts, then I get a Microsoft Silverlight update, and now I can't get into my charts OR my trading platform. I have some trading methods I'd like to review, and I'd rather not wait till Monday. Anyone familiar with this problem? Help! (I'm no...

My thoughts exactly, altho I can't express it quite so well. 3 in a row can GO!, with the proviso it's the 1st pullback in what looks to be a decent "new" trend. 2nd pullbacks have to be Prettier than bar #50, with more Strength shown than what is seen on that chart, for me to consider going...

One of the best statements I've yet to read on ET. :)

Good point. Tomorrow I'll hit Ctrl/Alt/Del and see what my resources are.

Thank you for the good info.:) Not quite ready, laptop is still working, but I'll check into it.

I appreciate your suggestion, as well as your expertise, but I need a Mini PC for portability. I'll wait a few weeks and see what comes out on the Mkts, since it changes so fast now.

I guess I"m just web browser based, not sure. I don't have a direct link to the CME, at least for now. If that speed seems "light", what would you reccomend for 1 or 2 Futures contracts, intraday?

Thx for the informed response, Jack. I have Sierra Charts and Infinity Bkrg's AT trading platform, and that's it. Pushing 2 Monitors, 1 keyboard, and 1 mouse. Pretty much barebones. Not even using Excel. 1 or 2 contracts in Futures products is all I trade. Sooner or later the old laptop...

1.6Ghz chipspeed fast enough? I figure since I've already got keyboards mice and monitors, why not use one of these as the computer, if I can. http://www.engadget.com/2012/04/13/zotac-zbox-nano-xs-ad11-plus-mini-pc-launches-with-e-450-apu-ge/

with as many kidney stones as I've had/passed, yea, I've traded while on vicodin.. I was a Deputy Sheriff for 12 yrs, and one of my problems was trying to figure out if the people I was dealing with was this: Are they stoned or just stupid ?!?! Of course the usual answer was BOTH!:D

Maybe it depends on how one defines a "trend". If PA shoots past the last HI or LO pivot, it's trend enough for me. Pull up a 5 Min chart and see for yourself. Amazing to watch it real time. The FIRST pullback is the most Valid one. I'd be happy to show you what I"m "seeing", if you...

Thank You NoDoji, for the help you gave me. I Love TA. (Trend Analysis)

I use a 9 and an 18 EMA on a 5 Min chart, looking for pullbacks in a defined trend. the EMA's are just to help gauge the strength/depth/angle of the trend, I guess. All I know is it works for me.

Jack...as in Daniels? wow..ya'll must be rich...

I'll take it! How's it done Uncle Ho?

2.5pts on the NQ every trading day? Sign me up. I'm a misplaced Texan missin' my Lone Star State somewhat feerce. I could use the $$ to fly home every couple months and visit my extended family. Chart settings? EMA's? Preach it Brother. Respectfully, Bubba Ian

Socialism is an artificially enforced shared impoverishment of mind, body, and spirit. True Liberty is the equally shared opportunity to rise or fall by your own desires and talents.

Which in itself might be the most "useful" of all, and even more important than his method. There are many free profitable methods out there, but evidence that it CAN and IS being done is inspirational. That alone could be the edge someone needs.

I'd vote for it! Pro Business and Pro tiny Gummint. YAY!:)

Anyone care to opine?
