It might seem obvious to you guys but I just realised something after thinking over Maverick's post: The trading range between the A Ups and Downs is the expected variance for the day, given the volatility of the security. When an A level is actually confirmed, that's a sign that there is...

So Maverick, for FX would e.g. the crosses be better than the majors in terms of being less crowded for example? The thing I'm trying to do with US equities is I want them to be optionable, volatile, and liquid. Not sure if I can find some smaller stocks that are the same as GOOG, TSLA etc in...

TSLA made a nice confirmed A-up, I got in with a call, sold off shy a bit of the top when I judge the movement to be close to peaking from the low + the ATR. GOOG and AMZN don't seem to be up to much today. GOOG went up a bit early on, but seems to have failed at my QAup level then it went...

I'm still slowly working through the previous posts in this thread while trying to learn and apply stuff. I'm still a noob, so bear with me. It seems like almost everyone here is doing longer-term trades with ACD. I'm going to try to apply it intraday first, then see how it goes. Today I just...

Hey everyone, I've been lurking and following this thread for weeks, going over The Logical Trader and reading the posts here and trying to apply what I learnt to the charts. Thanks a lot to Maverick74 and all the other contributors here. I had been planning to trade options intraday following...
