    Scalping_My Way with ACV

    Jack I sure hope you will consider continuing posting your observations on DOM and T&S. "DOM in the form of a button" could you explain further? Perhaps a screen shot? Not a ladder DOM? I assume the T&S is "truncated" or gated to filter out low volume prints? "Hang stalactites" for...

    NASDAQ & NYSE closed on Tuesday... How ironic

    In a philosophical sense I find it proper that NY honor President Ford. NY felt it needed a handout, and Ford assessed the situation and determined that NY and the other "ailing" cities needed to buckle down and solve their own problems. History has recorded that Ford was in fact correct...

    Spydertrader's Jack Hershey Equities Trading Journal III

    Thanks for the earnings program Clym. A note to others, the file will have an execution error if you rename it. It appears to need to be named earnings.xls to work correctly.

    bi9foot... sorry, I succeeded in accidentally entering a duplicate post. I thought I was successful in deleting it, but it was up for a while, so you might have seen it. I apologize, I did not intend to repost. :eek: I asked my wife to see if she could port your model display into MAK's...

    Spydertrader's Jack Hershey Equities Journal II

    Very nice results bi9foot! Did you base it off of Mak's (makosgu) excel program or di it from scratch? Either way, very nice. What data provider is required? PS: I for one would be interested in it.

    Merry Christmas to one and all! Be sure to tell someone today that is not expecting it that you love them! Give them a big hug and make their day... you will likely leave with a warm glow for the rest of the week!

    Spydertrader's Jack Hershey Equities Journal II

    Thanks Ezzy and Spyder. As always appreciate the clarifications. I have had a note in my records to seek insight on scientists post above for a while.... Sometimes folks write in a shorthand style, that a newcomer won't pick up on, but an "old friend" will understand at a glance... things...

    Spydertrader's Jack Hershey Equities Journal II

    Mak, It would be enlightening to hear you go on farther! Perhaps you could comment/work in the statements below from Scientist? Picked this up from a post by scientist a while ago:"One very powerful way of reading near-neutral volume is to read the depth levels. If the ask cumulative...

    Need opinions on new flat panel monitor (19"+)

    I picked up a couple of Acer AL1916CBD / 19" / 5ms / 700:1 / SXGA 1280 x 1024 / DVI / Black / LCD Monitors from Tiger Direct about 5 months ago. IIRC, they were around 150 bucks each after rebate. Totally satisfied with them, no dead pixels, bright as the sun, good contrast, etc. I picked...

    REPLAY Mr. Medved

    It would be great to have replay in QuoteTracker and/or AmiBroker... then again if we had it in QuoteTracker we would have it in AmiBroker too because of the API links with QuoteTracker! :) :)

    Spydertrader's Jack Hershey Equities Journal II

    Gent's I thought I would ask for a little fine tuning on my chart. The question is about determining the point 1 on the first IT. I had Spyder's 2 and 3 point, but choose an earlier point 1. I have studied the bars again, and I need a whack on the back of the head from someone to see what I...

    Spydertrader's Jack Hershey Equities Journal II

    thanks txuk and bundlemaker, I will add your explanation to the summary! Very different than what I deduced. I was way off and did not associate "two pair and a spike" even with the DOM, I inadvertently thought it was a bar pattern.

    Spydertrader's Jack Hershey Equities Journal II

    I noticed a number of new folks joining lately. Welcome! I remember how hard it was to just make that first step. All that data piled to the ceiling... where to start. I started the following compilation to just help myself in the process. I keep updating it as I learn more of the...

    What did you learn this year?

    I have come to respect Spyder and Jack this past year for their educational efforts. Last month the Aha moment was: "why am I stopping out, I need to reverse." I only day trade when I can take a day off here or there or with my aircard when I am traveling for other business. Therefore I...

    Frosty's auto-trading bot goes live with REAL money

    Wondering if one of you gents that are running a successful ATS would be willing to post a sanitized equity curve for your system and the instrument traded. It might help to have a "real world benchmark" presented here, perhaps for a 12 month run or so.

    The IRS might come after me

    Read up on wash sale rules... you will likely need 30 days of not trading each equity over the fiscal year change over. If you traded it on Dec 15th with a net loss, it goes on the shelf until Jan 16th. Though you are flying close to the deck now, you might as well get tax law down and...

    Where does everyone live/trade and how old.

    54 and a Santa Claus look alike... 30 years investing, 6 months trading on days off. Located on the North Coast... about 40 miles from Cleveland, OH out in the middle of a cornfield.

    When will Ford go bankrupt?

    If I recall correctly, Alan Mulally was not just the CEO of Boeing, but the hands on Program Manager of the 777 in his career there. He is a performance oriented, deliver the goods type manager... .i.e. -> the real deal. If he can't turn Ford around, no one can... I have heard a couple of his...
