To digest the posts, structure the information, remove trolls posts and finally have ready to print file. Thread is 100+ pages so if possible to do it without copy-paste page by page it will be fine... P.S. My purpose is to have structured info for benefit of myself and other ETers, not for...

and what about the entire thread, is there any way to automate it's download?

I’m 8+ years ET forum reader, most time lurker and seen lots of great contributors and threads. This one thread is the best I ever seen here. Wish I have read it 8 years ago. The trend following analysis presented here is sound and non-standard, all reasoning are logically proven so any reader...

Volpri, Thank you very much for pointing my attention to Trading Ranges book. I definitely overlooked it, because of the name of it. I thought ‘I trade well trending instruments, so ranges is not my territory’, but now I see that the containment of the book is much more than its name.

I like another analogy of ‘forced trading’. Let’s suppose a trader sees the signal and thinks whether take it or skip. Context is good, but not ideal. Pros overweight contras, but contras do exist. Good idea is to pretend that trader is not independent, but part of institutional team/crew. The...

volpri, thanks for tips and good night i have no video course but will look into Trading Ranges book, always like to research something new and promising

Primary reason is barrel of gun :) Secondary reason is i know that most breakouts fail but dramatical breakouts have more chanses to succeed that non-dramatical. I see that bulls won the battle in the moment and if pick long vs short my choice is long. But only in front of gun :)

i have all 4 books in pdf so any of them will be good where discussed the question of wide and tight stops

Regarding your question about barrel of gun. This is question for fun. In this hypothetical situation I will say ‘go long’ but it is pure coin toss and prediction and (even more important) context less decision. You did not show the broader context on the chart. In reality I will avoid trading...

Volpri, thank for smart reasoning, very good as usual Could you please explain one thing about Brooks trading style. Brooks as well as you talk about stops and entries based on extremes of bars/candles. This is totally unclear for me. Bars/candles are artificial construction of trader, there...

i sound like trendfollower which i am i am definitely not Brooks follower, however some of his ideas i appreciate - no countetrend, no barb wire trading, thinking context first, setups second. Some time ago i already posted my detailed opinion in other 'brooks thread'

and the second is never go counter trend? :)

absolutely correct, both statements 100% automation is very challenging task. More realistic goal is human+algo. Those how are old farts like me remember movie ‘Robocop’ and understand the difference between robot and cyborg. In trading world cyborg can be symbiosis of human (who analyses...

Best is to diversify, after living cost: 10% to charity preferably directly not via charity funds. One must give back some money to society 10% to physical gold coins regardless of current gold price and hide them in the forest (joke? Not!), avoid paper gold ETF and so on 20% to increase...

When any kind of dangerous virus is active, including covid, one should Always: wash hands, intake excessive doze of vitamin C (2-3 times comparing to normal), listen to recommendations of healthcare/medical people (aka professionals) Never: wear mask (hits immune system, useless against...

Understand, and try to explain why it is not possible. VIPs demonstrated ignorance from the very beginning, from the first lockdown in early spring 2020 in Russia. So, for validity of secret vaccine hypothesis we must admit that vaccine (or antidote) existed before pandemic announcement. And...

I had been ill covid several weeks ago. The effects were: lost smell feeling, body temperature about 37.1 Celsius (36.5 is my norm). Now I’m healthy. I remember the flu 2.5 years ago when I lied on bed and stand up only to visit the toilet. After this flu covid feels like light wind. It’s my...

Mark, Firstly I will not contact Baron or check the validity of your words by any other way, we discuss covid and not your life. As stated I’m thankful to you for series of post about manual back testing and its enough for me. Where you lived, worked, etc is your private deal. Back to virus...

lol, sorry, its my confusion. my english is far from fluent... as for Mark's life, nationality and so on, I don’t care. Years ago he explained in details the importance of manual backtesting versus automated and this info saved me lots of hours and $s

you just confused me with some other person :) if not - show exactly where I told about military, residences, Indian, my father and please show me site with my trades (actually i have no site at all)
