I entered FMCN based on unusual volume and a pt. 3 being formed with the aqua channel. Once again, the trade showed no follow through. When PRV fell off I decided to look for an exit. I exited on breakdown from the FBP.

Might as well put up my other two trades. I'm not finding much follow through this week. I entered ICOC on unusual volume as a FBO of the green channel. I entered at the first red circle area and exited on the break down from the FBP. I might should have exited when the R2R formed, but...

Nice price on XING. It didn't notice its unusual volume until later ... and it cost me. A Flat Top Pennant had formed and I entered right after the B2R gaussian completed (marked) on the bar that shows increasing black volume. Unfortunately, a huge sell order came in and my protective stop...

I was in and out and back in GIGM yesterday. I picked up most of the shares I held around 18.70. Since PRV volume was down and very unlikely to exceed yesterday's volume (much less FRV), I decided to look to exit before lunch (unless something changed). I exited once price broke down from a...

Hey Mac, The only way to get in quicker is to take on the additional risk/occurrences of failed volume and price follow through. Since volume is our confirming entry signal (once your other criteria has been met according to the chart) there are two ways to catch a potential trade earlier...

I had a couple of questions with my attached ES chart. First, as you can probably tell by the volume levels, I had not rolled over to the new quarter. Is there a general rule to follow on when to rollover? The second question I have is regarding some of my channels - specifically the dark...

My take on BPHX. -A

I held on to both BONT and JASO. You calling me a pig, Haroki :D. It was obvious they both were going to have much less volume than the previous day. But, they both showed relatively strong volume on up moves and weak volume on any down moves (I monitor on the 5 minute fractal during the...

I would be happy to LittleMac, but if you have time, I recommend you edit your post and delete your email address - not a good idea to have that listed in a public forum. Send it to me again through a Private Message, which also probably works just as well as email. -A

Hey, I'm currently trading the equities method at the intermediate/advanced level. I'm also working my way through the Futures Journal and annotating the ES during the day. If anyone else, trading on a similar basis, is interested in discussing aspects of the methodology or potential stocks...

I also jumped in JASO, today, around $60. and continue to hold. I feel alot more comfortable with it. Price has Broken Out of the down channel (with no resistance nearby) on increased volume and all indicators look good.

Nice entry point on BONT, you got in where I should have. I was in yesterday around $12.00, but volume just wasn't there and that last fall off and retrace at the end of the day worried me so I exited for a wash. Today, I hesitated getting in wanting to see how pullback volume looked. I ended...

12/7/07 ES Chart Today was tougher for me than the last couple of days. It took me awhile to figure out the gaussians in a couple of spots.

Spyder, I would be interested to see how you would draw channels and gaussian analysis with EXM. I can't find where there is a B2B BO of the original down channel.

I believe Spyder mentioned a good way to handle these situations, earlier in the journal. After a volatility expansion of the Left Trend Line, you might want to consider looking for a point 3 in order to draw a steeper channel. The case of EMKR fits this and I think it's reasonable to...

Hey LittleMac, It appears you might have some confusion as to Gaussian analysis. The current gaussian analysis confirms the up channel as dominant. I have attached your chart showing the current gaussian analysis (smaller arrows) and what we would expect to see if the gaussians were...

Hey Ivob, I was drawing the tapes intentionally. In the first part of the journal most of the charts posted draw in the tapes. Is this a practice that is generally dropped once you can draw and annotate the channels accurately? Thanks, -A

Thanks for the feedback FerdinandAlx. I'm going to try to annotate my gaussian analysis as my speed improves or when I have time after market hours. Right now, I'm trading the equities method while annotating ES during the day. Doing my equities homework and trying to catch up with this...

Hello all, Today was my first day annotating the ES and I thought I would post my chart for any comments. -Atari

Thanks for the reply Avi. When it was covered later on, was my question regarding how it fit in with the original trading rules cleared up? -A
