    Returns and Drawdowns in Trading

    answering percent return and drawdown information is useless for you to know. from anyone. you would listen to me if i (someone anonymous to you) say that i make X% a year with Y% drawdown? that is foolish. Listen to the words of the people who post here, don't give credibility to their...

    risk--- now a bad word??

    the amount of risk you take on any position is directly proportional to your ability to read/anticipate/takeaction to what the market does after you've taken said position. the market follows sequences...if you can read the sequences, you can also read the blockers to continuation of the...

    Returns and Drawdowns in Trading

    Original Poster, I would not bother with trading if I thought I couldn't avoid drawdowns in total equity. it is a myth that market risk is a "risk vs. reward" thing. YOU bring the proportional amount of risk to your money with respect to your level of skills, experience, and...

    (directed to all or none) here's the indicator sequence for our UP cycles. but rather than just feed it to you, i'm going to make you feed yourself. so it is in the form of a quiz type puzzle.:D enjoy.

    Jack or spyder, I have a few questions on the initial assessment sheet. (IAS). questions are in the picture. I read through the new 'building minds' doc. but i'm a bit confused, or i confused myself on these items. thanks.

    Jack Hershey Method: Beginner Rockets

    what would it be like for you to throw out all your pre-conceived notions about what IS or IS NOT possible? and to provisionally take on the beliefs of someone else to find out if what he says is true? you can not arrive at the total truth of the matter from standing where you are. you must...

    Thanks for linking those videos spyder, i had been waiting for those. I did not GET how indicators helped with this stuff, but now (at least in part) i believe i do. I will have to make more passes over the videos. here's what i've come up with for a GO/NO GO/GET OUT decision line. any...

    cipher, keep in mind you don't need to trade during US market hours for this method to be viable. many people who do this have full time jobs and this method is done on an EOD basis.

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    well i went long on the opening of that bar (it was fast/extreme to the upside at first)....however, when it started to tumble i just froze up. guess i kept thinking, it'll slow down a little so i can get out with a small loss. blah. the only good thing to come out of it for me was...

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    Ireland's quote of mak was exactly what i had perceived for a couple days now...and what i'm planning on doing from here on out until i gain more experience. figure, if you've got an average 4 intraday trends, you'll probably wind up with at least 4 fast/extr paces coming out of vdu/du...

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    thanks guys, i downgraded the TWS to 856 (i think) and it's working again. the thing was slick and super smooth for me yesterday (and now it is again). it was soooo cool watching a bar start out in VDU (from 30s into the bar) and then accelerating to fast pace....and either continuing or...

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    this is really weird, i downloaded Mak's latest excel page and it worked great yesterday. now i upgraded TWS, and the excel isn't processing the data, although it IS plugged in and receiving data. i'm getting market depth, but no pace readings or bar counting. anyone know what's up?

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    perhaps it would be faster and easier? for mak to make a camtasia video of a particular day explaining 'stuff'. if he is willing to do so of course. it might be easier than writing stuff out. it may also be a better avenue for transference both for the sender and receiver? the camtasia...

    the value of the MSN websites are the documents located there. (there are two sites). one is the futures website and the other is the stock site. Off hand, i don't remember what docs are located on which site. A lot of them have been posted into ET, but not all. There is a lot of value...
