Do you prefer stockfetcher to stockcharts?

Yes, more more thinking this as well. How you identify the trend? Thanks.

Wow, that is exactly what I look for. An engulfing candle that reclaims the 20 EMA or SMA in the direction of the trend! If it's moving on big volume even better.

I'm a moving averages fan. Do you mind expanding on how you use this set of moving averages to enter trades? Thanks.

Can you give an example of some of these patterns, thanks?

Which single MA do you use and how do you use it as a guide, thanks.

Mmm. At the end of the day it's all a massive gain whichever way you look at it. The OP had the foresight and courage to make the trade and then hold. Most cannot do this.

Good points, if your timing is off it may be quite a while before you see any real profits.

This is an interesting approach and has some merits. I have a couple of questions if you don't mind: 1. Is this method using futures or options? 2. What do you mean by roll each month? Thanks.

It's a great plan but not sure if you, it anyone, can consistently make 2% a day?

Er, not sure this is how it works...

"I'd go to the 15 minute chart and if they were also aligned, I would buy/sell when price interacted with the 34 moving average." Do you mind expanding on this please? Specifically when you say price interacted with the 34 MA?

What time frame are you using the 10 SMA on, thanks?

Thanks, this sounds very interesting, have a few questions if you don't mind: 1. What made you go for the 34/144/610 rather then the more traditional 20 50 100? 2. Can you please expand a bit more on this "I'd go down to M15 and buy/sell into the first pullback onto them." 3. Can you please...
