Since the futures are up overnight I will not attempt an entry in QQQ on the open. Instead I will wait for the next signal. However if you were long at the close of the original signal at 12:30, that would be about the 1463 area and the futures are back up to 1461... Or in terms of the QQQ...

At 12:30 a long signal occured. Since I was gone obviously did not enter. Furthermore the signal is still long into the close. I will consider an entry on Monday.

At 7:30. I would exit right here as and if it want to go more wait until it breaks the 36.5 area. i.e. another signal occurs.

At the close a Long was generated. However I was gone preparing for tomorrow and I will be gone after 8:00 so no trades. If I were to be here, 35.90 would have been a fine entry as an overshoot of the 36 .00 area. However given the general direction, the jobs report before the open, a...

I exited at 36.24 Reasoning being the ES and NQ are showing a tendency to break out of the lunch range to the downside. So Loss -.05 Cheers PS: entry should have been lower at 26.25 area IMO.... PPS: Trade 9 ends officially with an exit signal at 11:30 It was such a weak signal...

Long after 9:30 AM (was gone running :-) Filled Long at 36.29. This is a reasonable place around the 20 EMA on a 5 min chart. Sure the EMA is not a wall but it will suffice for an entry at lunchtime. Cheers

Out at 36.10. Exit Signal is developing. with 9 minutes to confirmation. An exit here seems like a good place. Near previous LODs and after econ report.

Chinese call it. Active Stillness like the crane waiting for the tide to come in...

Although it has cannot confirm for another 30 minutes. Trade 8 is developing as a short. Gee what a suprise!!!! A reasonable entry is at HOD at 36.66 (heh heh) or at 36.50 or HOD Plus some to say 36.75 Entry at 36.54 Short. Although this is early.... :cool:

It will be official at 7:30 the long will be terminated. Not time to go short yet as this just puts me in neutral. Cheers

Even tho no sell signal I took this off at 36.49 for +.25 Then entry was certainly poor and off by .10. I will wait for the next signal even tho I should still be long at this point. PS: Reason to take off is pretty clear, Resistance at 36.5 and this is late in the run. Besides a...

Long QQQ at 8:30 (Pacific Time) Long 36.24 at LOD. LOL That was the LOD Clearly a better entry was the overshoot of the Prev LOD at 36.21... Oh well...:D

This trade (long) is over. Exit signal has arrived. Obviously it was risky with the nature of the TL moving flat etc. BTW: If if did enter it , i'd be exiting now.... Trade 7 will be here soon...:)

Well I said it was going to be less than 20. Trade 6 Entry Long at the close. My decision is to pass because the AM holds reports etc. If anything I could have held trade 5 overnight but since the move has happened I chose to close it out for +.25

Hello, This journal is going to be short. 20 trades at most. The purpose is to generate discussion on entries and exits and drive a wedge bewteen the notion of a signal and the actual taking and manageing a position. I will provide the entry signal using a 60 minute chart on the QQQ...

I just posted this to TS but thought other should know or chime if they are having issues with 1747. http://www.tradestationsupport.com/discussions/Topic.aspx?Topic_ID=26834&SearchTerm= ========= I just hit this. I am sure it is hard to repro. Steps: Start Build 1747 with Matix, 8...

In windows if the disk is not the primary, use the Admin tools in the control panel. Under the Disk manager you can wipe a disk. I go thsi route often. Place the disk in another machine and wipe it then put it back in the target machine. For other Win OS, Fdisk still works. For yet...

My standard desktop has two monitors. Regardless of if it is used for trading. Just makes sense because most apps will interoperate and most apps are designed for one window. As for Trading, I use two for technicals and one laptop for order entry. When I travel I take the laptop hence it...

I am not saying the bugs are easily encountered, however when they are the severity is too high. I was running fine for a week on 1747, then this issue occured. I was able to reproduce the problem, ONCE I got TS in that state. After re-installing, I have not had the problem. Clearly it...

my 2 cents. Any newbies should be looking for help from a site that says they will: 1) Help you not loose your capital 2) Help you not make the standard newbie errors 3) Keep you viable while you learn a method suitable for your personality. Methods are like eye glasses, what works...
