    Call me confused OB1 but weren't you an advocate of not listening to other people. Why do you insist on telling people to trust you? And what were you doing Shorting the highs. The post of your system doesn't really allow for that. Were you predicting? Were you using some kind of indicator...

    Hello All good stuff. I am still extremely new at all this, but have been seriously attempting this career for somewhere around 2 years now. I just realized this morning looking at my charts that I have come all the way back around to what I was attempting to use at the beginning. Maybe this...

    Thanks I was trying to identify the time frame trend that B1S2 considers most valuable to identify the "Trend". As you all pointed out. There is always a larger chart than the one you trade on with it's own trend on it. The question I guess would need to be answered by me for the time period...

    Buy1Sell2, Hello. Haven't posted in this thread before have been a long time lurker, though. I have been interested in your trading as it seems simple and straight forward and I tend to get so complicated I can't keep from seeing trades in both directions at the same time. I went back over as...

    Do you hate stock message boards?

    I have felt the same way alot of the time here. Got to be selective and stay away from browsing around in other threads stick to a couple. Even then you pretty much have to wade through the DUNG to get to some reasonable people discussing reasonable things that may help you see a different...

    +163 yesterday +100 today ----------- +263 total (Com. removed) Need to take profits when they are more considerable. I hold my trades to long. I let the last trade go from over +3 to negative a little. Not good. Need to look over most of my trades and find a reasonable average to act as a...

    *Simulated* Trader P/L 2007

    I hate that your right. Today sucked. Draw down would be far to heavy. I couldn't do this with real money and have to rely on a huge day like yesterday. I undid almost all of the gains yesterday today. I still don't think systems are the way to go though. Back to the drawing board. I may need to...

Had to leave early from one trade to get groceries or it would have been more. Moral. I gave up on a system. Took trades with the flow as...

    What background colors are you currently using for your charts?

    Don't have eggshell. What are the color undertones? Does color matter for vision longevity or only that it's an off white? Thank you JIM

    From 15% (November) to 40% (December) to 80% (Now) Cash

    A little sad for everyone a day late a 3-4% short of where they were. This just re-enforces when you get the hebby gebbies get out you won't miss what you don't lose. Have a great day. Now maybe things can open up and get enough range during the day to make some headway my trading. Cheers!:p JIM
