Check out InvestorRT from Linnsoft. They have an EOD version that can be upgraded to real time, which I use. Many data choices. http://www.linnsoft.com/index.html jd

I haven't kept track of whether the close was near it's pivot. Do you show this to be of significance as far as tomorrow's trading is concerned, the fact that the ES closed at or near it's pivot point? jd

I had asked Linnsoft to add to their indicator the S/R 3.5 and 4.0 periods to the rest of the pivots. But then I told them not to put me on the list of wanting them to bother with it, precisely because of what you pointed out. By the time price gets that high, there are other forces going...

It's like you've been saying in this thread and others, (which I've been learning quite a bit from....thanks) the lines are just lines. What we need to do is find a reason for using them at their respective levels, in other words find the basis for why we give them weight. Otherwise they are...

Here's the PP formulas from Linnsoft's site. These seem to be the most accepted ones from the previous forums here on ET. http://www.linnsoft.com/tour/techind/pp.htm jd

Here's one from the web site of the program I use, Linnsoft's IRT. http://www.linnsoft.com/tour/techind/adx.htm jd

No PM, what MarkB just said.... off trading subject, but did you see Apple's new app, GarageBand? Looks pretty cool. John Meyer did a great demo with Jobs live at MacWorld. Anyway, just wondering what you though of it. jd

Makes sense to me Lancer. That's what I mentioned in my first post today is what I'd like to avoid happening....getting whacked that is :) Your paragraph above about counter trend reversal signals etc. etc. is over my head at this point. I'll need to look that stuff up. Sounds like something...

I meant Wednesday, not Thursday for the stuff I just posted. jd

here's the 3m chart for 1-14

MarkB, (all times pacific) Below is a 5m chart. (see next post directly below this one for the 3m chart) Here are two charts, one is a 5m and the other a 3m, both from Thursday 1-14. Now this is a situation not of the NO PM setup getting you into a bad setup, but one where it keeps you out...

MarkB, It makes sense what you said about the setups not being as reliable around the start of the lunch hour vs other times. When I see a DV (divergence) on my indicators like Chaikin or OBV, and it's near 9am (noon for eastern time people), I am usually skeptical. The volume between 7am and...

Thanks Lescor. Question: you use those three things to avoid trend days or, as you say in the first paragraph, you take all setups anyway? Or you take all setups AFTER using the three things above? thanks, jd

Lescor, That thread was what got me to register here instead of being a lurker. That, and one from VisionTrader got me interested in divergences in general. Since then, there was also a thread about ADX/DI that got me into looking at the DI (DMI for some people) and not the intersect stuff...

Speakeasy.net DSL at 1.5 mbs here. DirecTV dish outside with TIVO for TV. I avoid cable companies pictures when possible. I'm in the television production business as well and their picture quality is close to the LAST thing they care about, in my opinion of course :) I'm very happy...

Agree. I feel lucky to be here. There is an interesting "we're way over here, away from everyone else in the country so we can be ourselves" kind of thing here too which is nice. Less conformity for conformity's sake. The coffee and beer is good too :) Now, back to trading. What do you...

Where are you now? jd

It's true about the distance from the switching office with DSL. But cable companies doing internet is far from perfect either. First off, unless you pay extra, you don't get a static IP address with cable, it's DHCP, which means your IP changes from time to time. This can be a problem for some...

Seattle no, West Seattle yes :) jd

DollarCents, I misread your post I'm afraid. I thought I read, can I trade with a Mac? But it looks like you were asking if specific software, Hammer and AT (whatever those are) runs on a Mac. Probably not. I'm pretty familiar with all the options for Mac trading and I don't know those...
