    Need somewhere to think out loud,

    I use dorman/ninja too. Comission is fair if you are on the lifetime licence. CQG is datafeed. FGBL is overlooked contract by many retail traders and I think it remains to be :) If you want to discuss this deeper let me know because this journal is Turveyd's and it will be offtopic here.

    Need somewhere to think out loud,

    FGBL is Euro Bund future https://www.eurexchange.com/exchange-en/products/int/fix/government-bonds/Euro-Bund-Futures-137298 IMHO it's better than FTSE future for daytraders but it depends of trading plan. However FTSE future is still much, much smoother than FDAX. The trading instrument(s) is...

    Need somewhere to think out loud,

    If you will look at FGBL from your SMA envelope based method POV, consider not only time based, but also volume or tick based chart. You will see how relaxing daytrading can be after FDAX insanity :) And also how pretty is real exchange traded future compared to artifical CFD. Like squeezed...

    Need somewhere to think out loud,

    Have you ever looked at FGBL instead of FDAX? Some food 4 brain: 1/ FDAX intraday is big boys free zone like YM or NQ or Russel. All big boys trade FESX. So 6 points per 8 seconds is not some exceptional for DAX. I’ve seen 40 points steady move and this is 1000 euro per contract. I know you...

    On 10-case geometry and beyond

    stepan7 created very good tool indeed. And he is not alone. Probably you are aware of ETLURKER who automated channels and posted results (trades) years ago. As well as this person What is common in work of these guys and also Al Brooks? Pure price action. Volume is of no use. Guess why :)

    The very BEST trading advice you have ever had.

    1. non-concrete: understanding what is possible in daytrading and what is not. which problem has solution, which hasn't. 2. concrete: the average trade should be not more than 4 ticks. This makes impossible to trade size bigger than average size on DOM so no competition with big boys. For...

    How to read this VOLUME chart ?

    Simples, you trade ES if I understand correctly, and may be (I do not know) for ES it is good timeframe. ES is 100% speculative. CL is totally different. The volume distribution across time scale is extremely far from uniform. The spikes are sudden and huge, because of hedgers activity. For any...

    How to read this VOLUME chart ?

    CL and NQ are my trading horses so... try this 1. remember both futures are very fast, especially CL which is full of hedgers who operate with huge volume per transaction. So try 30 sec timeframe and compare with 1 min. For NQ also try 'long term' 2 min. 2. for time based chart put the range...

    How to read this VOLUME chart ?

    continuation or reverse or consolidation any thing this is the 'problem' X leads price means firstly X does this and after price does that. Such X does not exist for the obvious reason and volume is not exeption. As well as bid/ask volume, premium, big volume activity, trin, vix and so on really...

    What is scalping?

    100% correct "immediately" is relative to the working timeframe, so "immediately" on 5min is not the same that on daily, etc

    What is scalping?

    Scalping is trading style characterized by zero tolerance to opened profit declining. This means trading "retracement-less" movements. These movements can be on 5 sec chart and also on weekly chart. It's not about many trades per unit of time, it's about not holding during retracements, scalper...

    On 10-case geometry and beyond

    Addition to the previous post, WMCN test. WMCN if we have pt3 of downchannel? Increasing red, and we see it next 3 bars after questionable 09.42 bar. However the upchannel is not broken and we see increasing black @10.02. It is not WMCN of dowchannel, right? Only @10.15 the picture is clear...
