    I was using yesterday's swing high because the chaikin hadn't closed above that high point. The 9:25 price was above yesterday with a lower chaikin. The early up move is a continuation of yesterday's trend, so I felt comfortable using the chaikin from yesterday.

    I'm still here. I went to the hospital yesterday afternoon because I couldn't stop throwing up. They found I have Mono. I'm exhausted and haven't work all week. They tell me it'll take 2-3 weeks before I'll have much energy back. Typing this took almost 5 min. If a trade shows up I'll do my best...

    There would have to be a new high/low not a match.

    1. ADX crossed above 30 last Friday 8/22. 2. Divergence was easy to see. The open 5 min. bar continued the divergence with a lower price and higher chaikin. 3. First up bar completed on the 835 bar. Next bar became entry at start of 840. Entry at 992.00. Keltener width was 5.9 so stop loss was...

    Sick as a dog today. Going to try and hang in here. ADX above 30 from last Friday. First bar today made a low lower than all the run on Friday. There is clear divergence. This bar looks like the first up bar so going to go long at 8:40 if low is not taken out. Keltner range is 5.9...

    Key Reversal

    ES is shaping up as a Key Reversal day. The swing traders looking for a short signal are probably drooling..... http://www.twistedtunes.com/player/playMain.asp?ID=334&Speed=2

    It should be pretty obvious to anyone looking at today's SP chart that it's been a trend down day so far. It's not a rangebound day. If it were to close right now it would form a key reversal on the daily chart. Because of it trending down from the start, I won't be taking any setups using this...

    I don't have time right now to respond to your post. I've got to shower, shave and head off to work. I appreciate your concerns and am thankful you took the time to post. I'll try to post a more thoughtful response tomorrw.

    Emini Pattern Divergence Journal

    This journal is going to track a method of divergence trading for the Emini using two patterns for the entry. Since the other method in the Emini Divergence Journal hasn't been giving signals for a few days, I thought I'd add this method to track. I use both of these together. It takes some...

    One trade in the other method +5.25. Nothing using this method again. I'll start the thread, but because there is more to it than this, it'll take time to cover all the rules. Unfortunately it uses more discretion than this, so I'm sure it won't be everyone's favorite.

    I don't have any rule. I guess one bar would be enough. This morning I thought I'd get a short signal, but the ADX went over 30 after price had peaked, so there wasn't any opportunity. Here's the chart from early today. I was getting excited when I saw pretty clear divergence between 9:00 and...

    a. I don't look at after hours prices because of the lack of volume. I'm not trying to incorporate support and resistance trading so the overnite high/low don't have any influence on my method. My only interest in after hours is the size and direction of the opening gap and whether it gets...

    There was microscopic divergence after ADX went above 30 on this drop down. On the 10:20 bar I had Chaik. Osc. at -5.73. And on 10:45 bar it was -5.00. The 10:45 bar was the LOD so far. I couldn't see the divergence with my eye, so I didn't start the setup which would've gone long at start of...

    I am. Just not doing it for my living right now. Once I hit my $ goal, I'll try trading for a living; "my dream". Trading is stressful enough. I don't want to force myself to "have to" make money before I have a decent nest egg. My mom and dad passed away so I don't have the luxury of living at...
