Here is the basis of a method for trading price posted some time ago by Charlie Dow - You will have to put some thought and effort into it - he doesn't give away details such as which oscillator, which chart increments etc., but if you are willing to work, you should be able to figure it...

Hi Dan... Looking forward to it.... Best, HM

Uh, no.... I will just continue to use price as my indicator and let you carry on with whatever you think works...

And if we flip quarters you will be right some of the time....does that mean you can predict heads or tails? No indicator based on past price reliably leads future price....period.... Don't confuse coincidence with prediction....

We tested the top yesterday afternoon....we tested the bottom this morning....and now we are on our way back up to test the top.... It has absolutely nothing to do with yesterdays close or today's open....

The problem was erroneously reported as a TradeStation data problem by the poster I responded to...it isn't... I am happy other data providers have artificially corrected the CME's mistakes....I find no fault with TS in not doing so.... I see no reason to trade ANY contract where users...

Just an update...the problem with spikes on the Euro (EC) contract has now been acknowledged as a CME problem by the CME...apparently it goes back to some change the CME implemented in July to accomodate spread trading... I haven't checked the TS forums....once I saw the problem on ESignal as...

Not doubting you but if true, ESignal and TradeStation have the same technical problem with the same contract. I am looking at a ESignal/Multicharts chart of yesterday's EC with the same spikes that I show on TS - same time, same amplitude, identical in every way. Anyway, I wish all of...

Absolutely...sorry it isn't working out for you and the others....

The object of the exercise for me is to make money. If TradeStation was preventing or inhibiting that in any way, and something else is working for others, I would go for it. I can only relate my own experience which has been good. On futures contracts, I have had no problems with order...

I trade nothing but futures as well....ES and EC. I trade with several other futures traders and we have different data providers including ESignal. We all experience these spikes in the EC - not just TradeStation users. I believe it is a CME problem and not specific to any one data...

I am a long time user of TradeStation as well as other platforms. Their data feed is extremely reliable and on the rare occasion when I do have a problem, their trade desk usually answers the phone on the second or third ring. I have learned to appreciate their response when I have a power...

Agree...you may want to try buying higher lows and selling lower highs....that could prove more interesting....not to mention more profitable....

Envision you have a few contracts laid on and your power goes out, your computer crashes....whatever..... You call IB and the phone just rings....but hey, your making 5 percent on your money.....even though they don't answer and the market just dropped five points... You call TradeStation...

For the most part, those who were affected to the degree you suggest put all their retirement money into one vehicle....Enron stock... I do feel sorry for stupid folks...they constantly screw up.....I wish they could all have been a tad less greedy and more intelligent.....a modicum of...

I offer you the advice that looking to others to make the path easier is not the answer....even if the path is made clear you won't understand it without doing the homework..... Anyway, sorry I butted in....I will let you guys carry on amusing yourselves....

He is adding plenty as did Oddi. Some things never change...give me a method I can understand in a half a day that will make me rich...if you can't, you must be a charlatan... What a load of elite losers...certainly not traders..... My favorite....trade real time and prove you can...

Comments like this amuse me - it is also an example of how message boards like this discourage those who might otherwise succeed.... To paraphrase what you posted, "I can't trade a chart below ten minutes profitably therefore you gotta be a rocket scientist to make this work"..... Uh...
