I know there are discretionary traders out there who keep stats to make themselves more mechanical. If any if you here is primarily a pattern trader or price action, without the use of any indicators, how do you keep track of your setups? I have been taking screenshots and largely...

If it doesn't allow volume charts, download ninjatrader, save data, and use the replay function. If you are going to do this you might as well do it right, right?

Day... oversold doesn't mean it can't go lower. Where's the support underneath it? I definitely think a bounce could happen, but to me it looks like some longs just got pounded trying to call the bottom a weak ago and now we have a continuation move. It would have been better if we had a...

While I grab my 1.5 hrs of sleep, here is a chart of ANO. Going long tomorrow limit 3.25.

Thanks man haha. I have tons of charts and stuff to post but haven't been finding the time to do it. Daily charts have been responding real well to fib confluence and analysis combined with pivots. I will post my trading day tomorrow. Running PnL is at -600. I had a very good day end of...

Tommy... either we just had this convo or you have the exact same levels as me :D .

SSSS, though you are very eccentric, I do appreciate the effort. Maybe language differences? My native language is Russian so maybe if you speak that as well? Hehe... I also do not understand the relevance of the quote. Thanks anyways though, I will keep your suggestions in mind. While...

Thanks for the clarifications. I did manage to figure out marketzar and will give it a go. Might as well try it out even if I still use ninja for my charting. Also understand your explanation a little better. As is, I don't have any edges based on market open. I just try to operate within the...

SSSS, I appreciate your advice though I honestly don't know how to apply most of the things you said. I checked on Marketzar but it seems its like a casino. Seems very fishy to me and even though it says its free, to download the platform on the agreements it still lists 50 bucks even though...

Every time you bump your head you learn... and that's one less ceiling to bump your head on. The problem is (can't find the quote .... but from reminiscenses...) not that learning from mistakes is hard, but that every mistake has hundreds and thousands of sister mistakes.

Dozu I addressed your post a little in my prior response. I have no intention of paying anyone for mentor ships as I have complete confidence I can figure things out myself. My understanding of the market is limited. This is why I make observations and test them to see if there is any...

Sniemiec: I don't trade breakouts because I like setups with high R/W. This allows for more fudge room and seems intuitively like a better strategy for my personality. I also know that breakouts have a high failure rate and even if you are good at trading them you have to be prepared for good...

Here's the solution: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/932406/en-us Thanks to a person who chooses to remain nameless... Hope that helps you too NQ.

I could not think of a better place to post this so I figured I'd try here and maybe someone with some computer skills could solve the problem. I recently bought a new computer. Athlon dual core processor with vista. I have 2 nvidia quadro nvs 280 cards. Every now and then (to my...

Whatever happened to trade what you see?

Definitely a good job on letting winners run. Did you have a set target or just felt now was a time to get out? I don't trade breakouts/breakdowns anymore, but there is nothing wrong with it if you can do it. Only comment I have is that you should have covered probably on the first...

Thanks for the comments. I have observed successive highs/lows for a while, but have not been able to get an edge just using these things solely by themselves. Even if I don't get anywhere with median lines, fib retracements, etc. I need to know for myself if they work or not. I am keeping...

Hmm... charts really not that not worthy for the day. Here's a comment for myself as something I have observed during OEX. Last 2 days on OEX, even when price is somewhat readable, volume is not orderly at all. This is only a one-time observation, but comparing these two days to usual...

12 sequential winners? Hope that 200 dollars isn't your whole pot...

Kept it more simple today. Waited for opportunities, but unfortunately not many. Will post charts when I get back. Today was +40. Running PnL -$690. Well at least I havn't met my drawdown max yet hehe...
