you mention you are trading in china Buy and hold in the shanghai stock exchange would have netted about 200% in the last few years. From my point of view, any short term trading strategy which does not beat the index your trading in by at least 1 standard deviation is just not worth the...

is the FTT supposed to always occur at or near a high volume bar? Its just that i keep on finding that my FTTs always are at or near a record volume bar, it is normal? thanks and happy easter

heres the other file

getting into the volume gaussian analysis as recommended to me earlier by bundlemaker. Just wanna check up whether ive learn't it correctly. When in an up channel the volume bars should be increasing Black for dominant traverse and decreasing red for non dom traverses. When in down channel...

what scale do you guys use for your volume bars? linear or semi log?

id seriously buy that system volente. AND REVERSE ALL YOUR SIGNALS.

you could register a company. I'm not sure about tax laws in the US but: an investment company could be started up with the equity in your current account (i.e take it all out pay taxes etc) register new account under company name. All the revenue from trading operations would be used to buy...

yup distinction. umm trading is difficult, frustrating and downright brutal at times. but thats why its fun :D traders are all sadistic barstards!

thanks

with the volume gaussians i cant seem to get tradestation to color them in (running 2000i). wondering if anyone has the script for a paintbar function to color them in. If any of you guys here have that that'd be greatly appreciated

I am trading FTTS barely profitably on SPI200 end of day charts. I have a problem in that when there's an extended rally in one direction i keep on seeing alot of FTT'S which are almost always wrong. This only occurs when day to day volatiilty is low and the index just slowly marches upwards at...

hey guys been a while since i visited the forums. ive been able to make about 2% per month net of commissions and brokerage. not spectacular, but its something. Mostly been using Jack hershey's methods on end of day charts, i think im slowly learning. making plenty of mistakes along the way...

I can see that there are about ten trades and they go: S L S L S L S L S L. I dont know about you but with mechanical systems i get suspicious when i see trades with alternate positions like that. Mechanical systems which stop and reverse usually get whipsawed to death at some point during...

any1 know whether any of these prop firms have offices in australia?

what do you guys do if you miss an FTT? i stop and reverse if the price breaks the last reaction low if its going up or the last reaction high if the price is trending down. any other failsafe's you guys have? i can usually spot an ftt after the third bar after has formed. but on an...

in case ur wondering what market it is, its teh SPI200 daily. Also last part of spyder's ES chart looked like a volatility expansion. i couldnt pick up how the FTT came to be thanks

Hi ive been spending the last few days looking and drawing channels in on daily charts. I just wanna make sure that i'm getting the right idea with the channel drawings and FTT/BO/FBO identifications. Thanks

I'm trying to learn the volume formations i should be looking for when im looking for a FTT. However im looking over some old charts posted here with FTTs marked. The volume formations seem to differ between a /\ or \/ gaussian. just not sure which one i should be looking out for or both...

thanks, will look into it. so it is essentially impossible to adapt SCT to daily fractals spyder?

I've tried that, however the initial universe of stocks is very difficult to obtain the reason being that i am in Australia and the initial universe criteria dont quite fit that well. I've tried fiddling around with the criteria, but i seem only able to generate a few stocks in the final...
