    Daily Crude Oil Day Trading Analysis 18/06/18

    Linusoverload, Quick question... You are using Market/Volume Profile. Curious as to why you wouldn't be looking at reversing to a long bias after price broke above the 64.90 level? Or at least be neutral between the 64.90 and 66.60 range?

    Millions made, much of the world seen, what now?

    Slartibartfast, The Nordic Countries are some of the few places I haven't been to.

    Peter Thiel appears to be more of a psychopath than someone with Aspergers Syndrome. Some of the characteristics of both overlap each other. He in true psychopathic form might just be hiding his psychopathy under the currently acceptable Aspergers umbrella. If a psychopath wants to grow his...

    Confused...Moving Averages and outside market hours data

    If you are not finding any statistical edge on the Moving Average periods that you are testing whether on the day or night or combined sessions I would suggest just try using VWAP, and as Xela suggested using constant range or volume bars if your charting package facilitates it. I would think...

    Midwestern Trader, From your postings you seem very systematic in your approach to trading, may I ask why the allowance for a "$25K drawdown bust out event". Is it some sort of 2.5 times previous historic drawdown number? Is it just a random amount you are willing to lose for entertainment...
