btw --- for those interested i have noticed that Billy added a "basic" market profile type introductory section to his website --- here it is --- http://www.instituteofauctionmarkettheory.com/Courses/MP/index1.cfm and i also see that Billy has moved the IOAMT free trial to 30 days from 14...

Absolutely!!! and i do this often but every time i describe this method in threads here at ET i get all kinds strange reactions, so for the most part i just do not bring this up anymore --- people will have to figure that out some day on their own. :) and you are welcome! :)

but is it safe to surf this beach --- that is the question in trading!

you are right about the timing of a scale-in {short for this example} and a breakout above a resistance area you are scaling into below would just cause you to flip/reverse your position and ride it for 4 to 8 ticks to defensively get you back to b/e with a few runners left {if you want} to gain...

screw the defense --- stay on the field in offense the whole game and keep scoring!!! watch the other teams defense sit on their butts all game drinking gatorade! :D btw, i could not agree with you more! :) very smart thread you have here --- good to make people THINK!

thanks --- well after a 10 {now 11} day run in front of a weekend and a few days from the CPI/PPI and other news i decided it was time to get in here and take a swing. :) yes - send me an email and i will get that document to you ASAP. :)

i played my new swing trade and then i scalped the es all day long --- so it was worth the time.

is TT the only charting that has the CVD {cumulative volume delta} indicator? anyone else using this with a different charting company? thanks

that is a wrap for the week ---- cost basis sitting about 1037.00 for my position from all the levels i own and the various position size at each level ---- i have about 70% of my position in place and i will now use a bust of 1231 to bring the position to 100% if i am not able to add the...

built up 1038.50's now -- will take the 1036.50's out at 36.00 and that will allow me to take out the 35.00's at 35.25 and still have all the previous positions covered with commissions paid for. i am order replacing my way up in this slow grind as possible --- need to take advantage of this...

ok --- i am holding 1236.50's to replace my 1235.00's --- i need 1234.75 to replace my previous 35.00's with one tick of profit to pay for the commissions {order replacement or previous position replacement method} .

yes this is a scale-in or previous order replacement method similar to what is taught for intra-day trading in the www.ioamt.com chatroom. send me a pm and i can get you a 4 page document that explains this entry method for intra-day trading or send me an email at macroevent@yahoo.com and i...

well one hundred three tick scalps later ......... LOL! :D ZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzz :)

yes but it depends what type of trades you are going to make from the information observed --- for making two or three tick scalps during the day for the ES my methods work fine. i have been thinking of looking at the Hang Sang index though to see what that looks like while trading --- that...

for the ES --- yes this together with the NYSE TICK can be a very good set of tools for tape reading or having a good "expectation" of forward going movement.

excellent tool for tape reading will be available on the 12th http://www.mmti.com/TapeReaderInfo.htm here is a partial screen shot {this shot does not have the scrolling T&S showing} -- http://www.ttrader.com/mycharts/display.php?p=37264&u=macroevent&a=MacroEvent&id=1511...

true and i had never posted the link ---- sorry! http://www.mmti.com/TapeReaderInfo.htm the link will be active on 11/12/05 with all the new tools Billy is using. here is a screen shot ---- http://www.ttrader.com/mycharts/display.php?p=37264&u=macroevent&a=MacroEvent&id=1511...

and now go back and look at what has happened in the market after a 10 day run of the SPX never breaking a major support level. :) so far we are on day 11. :eek:

my order replacement method is why i am not worried about the price level you mention --- my stop has the ability through my trade management style to be continually adjusted higher {along with the trades overall cost basis}.

well i am posting what i am committed to ---- i am taking a swing from what i see as a "higher probability" attempt. if we grind up higher i will then also be afforded the luxury of "order replacement" all the way up, thus moving my cost basis and stops higher ---- FOR FREE!!! :D
