Wabu, Sent you a PM.

. What chart timeframe are you using now? Your post made me look at MRNA and TSLA on the 5 minute charts. Very different paths for them today...

. Hi raik, You story reminded me strongly of the one below. There is considerable evidence that the prefrontal cortex of our brain doesn't become fully developed until we're in our mid-20's. This region is very important for decision-making and for impulse control. Was thinking about that...

- Just checked to see that BOIL and KOLD are 2x ETF and inverse ETF funds that track natural gas. I swing-trade several futures markets and have traded natural gas futures in the past. Do the ETFs offer particular advantages over trading natural gas futures?

. Same. Good luck Wabu.

. Hi Volpri, This journal is a unique and invaluable resource in the forum. I always enjoy reading it whenever I check in, and though my more indicator-based momentum trading methods are different, they have a lot of similarities too. Agree strongly with your comments about the importance of...

I think the comments of TSGannGalt and Vikana earlier in the thread (back in 2006!) have it about right. I consider profit factor to be one of the three most important metrics I use to evaluate a backtested strategy, along with win rate of ~50% or better and a reasonable profit/maxDD ratio. I...

- Yes, it's called Crash Landing on You on Netflix where I live... a really great kdrama. I watch several kdramas each year, either on Netflix or at viki.com. Many very good ones out there now.

- Do you mean Crash Landing on You? or a different series...

- A well-formed hammer appearing during a pullback in a strong uptrend, in conjunction with a momentum indicator extreme low, can make a very pretty picture.

- Hi Ark93, If perchance you've revisited this thread, would you consider updating us on what you have learned since your last post here... your original question certainly stimulated a lot of comments and suggestions!

So I was listening to a song that I like by a girl group called Blackpink on YouTube last night. I noticed that this one and a couple of their other songs have over a billion views and thought “Holy crap that’s a lot, they’re probably among the most viewed videos on YouTube”. Boy, was I wrong…...

Hey Tradex, But since the candles went right up to the top of the channel and broke sharply back down toward the other side, wouldn't that be considered a good and consistent result to a pattern-based chartist?

- Just saw an interesting way to rank trading books based largely on Amazon reviews. Found this list from last year on a Twitter page (Steve Burns): It is located at https://www.newtraderu.com/2020/10/24/35-best-trading-books-of-all-time-based-on-amazon-ratings/ ------------- 35 Best Trading...

- Pekelo, Thanks for this. I take it every other day as a source of glutathione. Couldn't find it at Amazon today and so ordered more from Lifeextension.com.

Hi Lee-Bax, This is a nice journal. I trade with a different approach, using indicator-based systematic trading systems, but have enjoyed reading about your method. Apologies for my ignorance, but I can't quite figure out the meaning of your closing acronym GLIYF. Browser searches were...

Hi Johnarb, I read a while back that Canada has or will soon have ETF-like markets that one can use to trade cryptocurrencies. We have a futures market for Bitcoin in the US now, but it's very expensive to trade. Do you know if there are plans to have a way to invest in cryptos through...

- Related to Ken's post #118 and his new article, Perry Kaufman (author of the tome "Trading Systems and Methods") published a study of moving average systems in the May issue of Technical Analysis of Stocks and Commodities. The rules were to simply go long when the slope of a MA turned up...

Trying the link again... Link:

(with apologies to Charlie Brown’s dog Snoopy, hope he finished his novel) It really was dark and stormy recently when I settled in at the ol’ computer desk with some pistachio nuts plus Jack Daniels and pomegranate juice and logged in to Amazon.com. I like to go there occasionally and...
