Hi Spyder - thanks for pulling this out for us. snip: "This means the natural offset of the index is greater than the value of the cash." To be honest, I've yet to give our latest tool a close inspection, as I don't feel ready for it, but that's neither here nor there. I am confused about...

Gosh, Dr. Phil - can't a fella have any fun anymore? Oh well, I did anyways today - best to ya ... :D Now, off to more serious pursuits (but not too serious - heheh)

Interesting choice of words - defense?? I thought I had just thrown up the white flag - hahaha. But I didn't wanna just leave ya without trying to offer some friendly advice. However, that apparently just brought us back full circle to the idea of close-mindedness. Oh, never mind - you'll just...

I guess ya got me there, bro - heheh! Too bad a life devoid of humor can be such a solemn existence! And before I scurry off to lick my wounds (from the battles of oneupmanship :) ) , may I impart a bit of aged wisdom: don't take yourself too seriously - life is far too short! (And I'm thinkin'...

LOL - now that's what I call some funny s... (tuff) !!! :D

Help me Rhonda Help, help me Rhonda Help me Rhonda yeah Get her (him?) out of my heart (head?) :D :D :D

Good point! Another one of my personal weaknesses - forum addiction :D - at least here at ET I actually found something of value! Cheers ...

Thank you, sir. Yep, playing the IB/ Bracket Trader video games :D I've live traded the ER2 enough to realize early on that I wasn't ready for that game. Talk about needing to be nimble on your feet ... :)

Personally, I'm not too worried about 'ole Jack' (other than wishing him health and happiness) :D Where DO you people come from - heheh!

Thanks, Jander - back at ya, buddy! :D Remember, the 'Grail' is to be found within one's own belief mechanisms ... Happy Easter!

Heheh - I think, perhaps, you might have overlooked a couple ideas in my journal. Sometimes a simple reread can help drive home the more salient points. A few of those being: - although I have been at this game for a good many years (off and on, that is), trying every combination of canned...

Not much to say (as usual :) ) Found the session to be quite laborious. Still inept at nailing down the major pt 3's, and if I enter late, then seems I end up staring at red, and have to manage my way out of yet another trade. Heading out in the a.m. for the weekend, so no more trading this...

jtnet and Jander - thanks for droppin by. Your questions are kinda related, so hopefully a single reply will suffice. Yes, the goal of SCT is 'always in' - however, that is attained by those who reach the expert level of applying the methodology. At my level (struggling beginner :) ) hitting...

Another day, another lousy pretend dollar. Can't even reach the daily min goal this week so far - have to work harder I guess :confused:

Shaking head and muttering under his breath as he shuffles off...

Yes - I've tried to clearly state earlier that I am 'paying the spread' with these trades. I will also state that I will occasionally place a limit order 10-15 min ahead of time when my desired entry is determined by a confluence of conditions (channel lines, pivot points, sma's, etc) For...

Kudos for the thorough explanation (and the effort), spooz. Very evident that you continue to DO the work ... regards ...

Good points, dkm - thanks!

Yes - BT provides for just about any type of order entry. Stop ... limit ... stop w/ limit (not for sure on this one - have never used it) Buy @ask, @bid, @ last price ... Sell @bid, @ask, @ last price ...

Guess it depends on what resolution you are monitoring. No change (i.e., continuation) in the forest, while seeing change in the tree. That leads me to ask: if one is trading at tree level, would he act on a BO after a single bar closes outside the tape RTL? Or, is that too late, as he should...
