Yeah ! I also think that the Zen thing is something that hasn't much to do with trading. Trading psychology refers to attitude, belief in your edge, being responsable, serious, accepting and embracing risk ... Of course you have to be calm, but these things aforementioned are not...

rcanfiel: WHAT DO YOU WANT US TO SAY IN ORDER TO DRAW A CONCLUSION TO THIS COMPLETELY NONSENSE THREAD???? Ok! You are right! Now go home to your books and your scientific studies and let us traders use TA, FA or whatever we were using before you started this stupid thread! Please leave...

do marketsurfer and myminitrading have something in common ?

That's more like it Work a trendline sound MUUCH BETTER! Thank you.

i meant "a retard" i wanted to say an idiot, but changed the word :))

surf, are you an retard or didn't i know how to express myself the best way possible? My point was that random entries are well.. random... it can't yield you anything.... over the long run. TA, by identifying patterns (and not to mistake that for "chart patterns"). By patterns i mean...

Honestly, your TA sould not even raise your winner/loser ratio above 50%.... Hell, you could have 3 winners out of 10 trades and make money. What TA does (using TA) is helping you keep consistent. When you have a pattern and trade it consistently, you only have to be disciplined and...

Now here's someone thinking about becoming LTCM !!!! Does this thread get any better ?! :))

WHAT SENSE DOES THIS THREAD MAKE? Really now... Is this really a debate? I don;t even understand what "WORKS" means!!!!! If the original poster, by "works" means, yields you money.... then NO. TA does not WORK. Why should it work? YOU have to WORK, and TA is just a tool you can use...

boy. OBV will tell you nothing in cash markets. In futures, maybe .... Even that is debatable. But cash.. forget it. I think you can use momentum studies better... My 2 cents: Neither trendlines, nor MACD or any other indicator for that matter or study actually "WORK". You can't...

Could someone on earth explain to me what the !@!?@ is On Balance Volume doing on a cash fx chart ???

Yes. Dr Elder. Definitely. Come into My Trading Room is an exceptional book for starting out. Even after years in the game I still refer to that as being the "root of all knowledge" inside me... Two thumbs up.

I think you have nothing else to talk about... The man said "I don't know" and that it "may be over"...

Excuse my intrusion, original poster, but all you had to do was to buy on a retracement, after all this time, price was revealing a very strong trend.... Regardless of iphone, or who's owning most AAPL shares, and what not... See chart. Buy the rejection at the EMA after ADX turned above 30...

You don't understand. As i said in my original post, i am already using a multi-timeframe strategy (derived from the Dow Theory) but i am also using singles. I am interested whether people use singles timeframes or multi-timeframes on a statistical basis. I don't really need advices on...

I have been working with multiple screen trading strategies like Elder's Triple Screen and some other derived techniques, and they have proven successful at least 50% of times, which is just enough to yield profit when used with strict money management rules. For a while i have been trying to...

aahh. you know what ..... i will actually do the right thing. i am mailing him my own harcover. by post. thanks for the links everybody, but FT71 is right..... plus, i know it by heart so i don't need the book. i just value the information ...

FuturesTrader, i totally agree with you. I have bought one myself from amazon. I was hoping i would find the book to buy it on ebooks, but i couldn't... This guy is in a rather remote area, and it takes a lot of time for a package from amazon to get there, if it gets there... The political...

i think you meant 5% :)

Is there anyone who can point a brother to an ebook copy of Mark Douglas' Trading in the Zone... ? I will buy it if necessary... I want to send it to a friend and can't actually scan the whole damn thing...
