Those are actually good suggestions also. I've been to both Cyprus and all of the Canary Islands. From a cost perspective I think these places are also pretty good. It might be a little bit too hot, though. I find it easier to focus and stay indoors when the climate is cooler. But with summer...

That's precisely what I'm doing.

It's just an option I'm considering and hardly a very controversial one. At least from my perspective. If trading goes well, I might very well consider settling down semi-permanently abroad, yes. I've lived in the same city for 10 years now and feel it's time for a change. 8 hours per day is...

Good advice. I haven't been around too much, but I do love San Francisco and NYC, but at this point in time, cost of living is most definitely too high there. Las Vegas seems like a place without a soul and I was honestly glad when we left, but we were partying hard, so I'm sure it has other...

It's certainly not impossible, but I have a lot of family and friends which consume my time. Not to mention my girlfriend... I'd really like to go nuts for an extended period of time with full focus and no distractions. Also, I like traveling and seeing new countries and have not been doing so...

Absolutely. Can you be more specific? I love the US, but I think the cost of living is too high at my desired locations at this point. That's not to say there aren't other great alternatives, so please feel free to share. While not my number one option, I've heard people say Las Vegas have a...

Norway.

@Pekelo I tried updating the OP, but was too late... Howard

Thanks for the contributions, good people. I could not edit the 1st post, but for me, tax is of no concern at this point in time. I will pay tax to my native country as I'll be living on a tourist visum. Sadly, cost of living is still a concern and in this phase of my trading career, it would...

Puerto Rico might be an alternative, but tax wise I can't exploit that unless I expatriate permanently. I don't plan on doing that yet, although it is an option for the future. Thanks for the suggestion and link. :)

Hi all, I'm interested in relocating to another country for a period of time to focus on my trading business, but I'm not sure where to. Initially, I'm thinking for 2 or 3 months and will re-evaluate as time goes by. Considerations: I day trade US index futures, so compatibility with that...

Your chances should be good, then! Just kidding. :D

Thank you for the input, fan27. Noted. If it was any other guy I would be very, very skeptical, but I always appreciated what Lawrence had to say in the past, so that's the sole reason I'm even considering it. But I probably won't unless someone with positive experiences with it presents...

Perhaps you already answered the question. :) I suppose I was mostly interested in what experience people have with these indicators and if anyone is using them to assist their trading (entries and exits) in a meaningful way. Do you have any specific rules for how you use it? What's your...

Hi, MACD, Thank you, I guess. :) It's been 4 years already? Well, I've been trying to put together a 'game plan' way longer than that. My focus is on day trading ES with daily profitability. Entries and exits need to improve. I was hoping market internals could possibly assist. Any thoughts...

Hi, Does anyone use market internals for (day) trading the US stock indices (NQ, ES, YM)? I played around a little with the NYSE TICK back in the day, but didn't find anything useful back then. Would be interested in testing it a little more now. Just pulled up a chart, but the raw data looks...

Hi all, Does anyone have any experience with this course (or other material) from Lawrence Chan at Daytradingbias.com? The price is steep and I can't help but be skeptical towards educational material in this industry, but I've always enjoyed the free stuff I've read from Lawrence and I like...

Any theories on why ES found a bottom at 2751 today? Any theories on why it's likely to close around 2769?

At least that's what the order flow vendors are teaching... :) You're analyzing patterns and price history even when using order flow. If you're trading larger swings intraday or even multi-day, I think order flow is not the first priority. There are specific patterns intraday that can be...

As expected, this turned into a useless debate. I'd just recommend ignoring Rob's comments and getting back on topic. FWIW, my current approach is to utilize indicators to confirm my signals and supplement my current methodology by assisting in creating hard rules for my entries and exits. In...
