I am looking for suggestions for parameters to trade ER. I am thinking of 1000v for trade chart and 5000v for anchor chart. What about all session vs pit session? Any suggestions? Thanks to all members of the thread who have been so helpful, esp Anek (beerman):p

Thanks for the info.:)

Thanks. BTW can anyone tell me the what it costs to use Tradestation? Thinking of switching.

Thanks for that helpful reminder. Reading back over the journal I noticed there has been mention of the 3 bar reversal by StealthTrader, and now a helpful reminder to enter when minor resistance is broken. What about when the pullback (in a long) is just a series of red candles with lower lows...

So, for example, if you are generally using a 2 point stop in the ES, you would not enter a trade unless the next significant resistance was say 3 points away? Could you give an example on a chart? Thanks.

thanks, anek. Am I to understand then, that you do not view choices 2 and/or 3 as viable alternatives? What if it looks like the trend is going to continue and you feel there is still some room to go before next major resistance? Would you still stay flat or try to get in as per the choices...

Hope everyone is having a good weekend and get well soon, Anek. I have a basic question regarding entries. I have been using the 50% retrace and find it's pretty good. The only problem with it, of course, is, in a strong trend price action will take off and you don't get filled. When that...

what kind of stop do people use when trading the nq. I am asking since I have only traded the emini s&p. Thanks.

was only trading the morning. net +4 ES. Saw the symmetrical triangle forming but had to go to work. EOD saw that shorting on a pullback to the TL would have netted at least another 3. Long way to go but thanks to Anek and AHG, feel a lot more confident. Also, support Kid's last suggestion.

Anek: A continuing problem for me is deciding what to do in the following scenario: I see what I think is downtrend (2LL/2LH) but when I get my nose away from the screen it's obvious that it still qualifies as a retracement in a longer term uptrend (usually a longer 123 pattern where the low...

can someone tell me how to post a chart on the thread? Using AHG I am net +4 this morning and done. Trading ES with 5000v chart and trying to strictly trade trends the way Anek teaches. What I appreciate the most so far is actually "seeing" the chart for the first time. Doesn't mean won't...

Glad you chose to continue.:D I will repeat my previous question wrt trading the TL breaks. I noticed that you often get into this kind of trade after 1LL and 1LH as opposed to 2 swings. Do u have any criteria u use which helps u decide when to take this kind of trade and when to avoid it? I...

Anek: I vote A. Altho I haven't posted very much I have read the thread twice thru and have adapted it for trading. It works!

Anek: Thank you for your prompt reply. Much appreciated. Notwithstanding the core AHG entry (2HH etc), I notice you take many entries on a break of the TL with the so-called "magic tick". Obviously, this is something u can do with your experience before the standard trend is established based on...

Anek: I am new to trading but reading this thread over a few times has been enlightening, to say the least. Hope you don't mind a few noobie questions. For trading ES would u suggest 5000 or 10000 vol? In a strong uptrend when the retrace is shallow (less than 50% fib) do u recommend...
