    Another N-days down and then what happens thread

    Given the sell off over the last week I wondered what happens after 5 consecutive days where the close is less than the open on the ES. So, I wrote a Tradestation strategy to test this. The results are interesting. Buy after 5 consecutive days down and hold for anywhere for 1 day to about 3...

    AutoTrading 500+ instruments

    For the OP: Not sure if this would help you since you need ranking and sorting. But I use Tradestation to automate 240+ charts with fairly complex code on each. I don't do ranking and sorting the way you probably do but the fact that it can handle this load tells me it's worth looking at if...

    What happened with CL ? Big move down

    Hi Clubber Lang: You are 100% correct. TA is a risk control tool - not a forecasting tool. You can use it to make probability projections but that's all it is - probability projections. It's major use is as a risk control tool.

    What happened with CL ? Big move down

    Or, from a technical perspective, you have this: It was a ridiculous multi-month triangle that faked out to the upside and finally broke to the downside. Now, we're in the middle of another consolidation - god knows how long this is going to last before we get the next impulse.

    Accoding to Munger

    Yeah, I'm suspicious of buying silver here - not only because of volume but because it broke from a wedge like formation recently. Of course, the darn thing is a in a wicked, wicked broader range but as long as it stays below the lower trendline of this "wedge", I'm more likely to give the...
