About daily channels - I don´t know if you still have problems getting them from the historical chart to the intraday chart? I don´t have any historical datafeed so i draw them directly on the intradaychart by setting the time so that one bar shows one day. Isn´t it that simple or am i...

Interesting thread, do you have more data so you can look at a year or something? best regards, Stalker

Frugi, you use the same set-up as me, bracket trader, ib, sierra, i even have windows xp and zone alarm like you :) I really like you´re charts, saw one of them a couple of weeks ago and they made me realise that sierra isn´t so bad after all, it was just me who had to put up a little...

Volente, got time to answer a question? I draw trendchannels and s/r-lines, and find both of them very useful. But the real trick to be able to use them with a high winning procent must be to know when they are going to hold or not. I sometimes feel I "know" what´s happening by looking at...

Dantheman, I´ve attached a chart from ym today (i right out hate the tick increment on es so i´m still cheating and mostly follow YM). My limited experience is that on rangebound days, the support and resistence-lines are very valid. The lines drawn on my chart are all drawn before market...

agree with movery, i have my line drawn at 10295, so i don´t see a mystery in covering around that area

iffy? that´s a new word for me. i think i get the mening though :)

would you say that this is a valid ascending triangle here on ym?

Being new to this I think it´s fun to see people posting their entries and exits. Sometimes I ask questions, sometimes i look at my charts and try to figure out why they did what they did. Doesn´t really matter to me if the one posting trades are papertrading or bluffing. Everybody here at...

I´m trying to grasp this thing about bid/ask, and one thing I´m wondering about - I use IB, and on TWS you can see the bid/ask volume. But is there a way to see the number of traders on the bid/ask side? And could this information be of any use? /Stalker

Why don´t you papertrade for a while Movery? Might take of some pressure, you´re not in a hurry. I think everybody loose in the beginning - months or years - no matter what strategy you use. When you look at charts in hindsight it always looks good, but when you sit there live it looks like...

I guess what I´m trying to say is I want to narrow down my focus a bit so I don´t get lost with all the possibilities :)

on the chart there´s an uptrend starting at 11.10, it´s from there and forward my trendlines are drawn.

There´s one thing I´ve found that I have problems with. It´s easy to find point 1-2-3 for the "smaller" channels, you just take 1st, 2nd and 3rd bar, no problem. But when you want to draw "bigger" channels it´s not as easy. You find that there are lots of possible point 1-2-3. I attached a...

250 k/year, i wouldn´t complain :D

just dropping in between jobs, hope you´ve made some money. Everybody seems to speak about crude oil and the inversed relationship to futures. Anybody of you watches it in conjunction with es? /Stalker

esu2 - my stop is 15points, target usually around 20p, but i´m new at this, don´t listen to any advice from me...:)

i usually try to stick around for 20-30 points, but i chickened out for 8 points this time when i was long from 451, should´ve stayed, but thats how it is...

price stopped at the bottom of a congestion area from yesterday afternoon. But i didn´t short there unfortunately, it was volente who shorted :)
