    Mondo- Not sure what you mean by "profits that small". 1% a day, if it's really possible, would add up. zorak

    Low-Volume Swing System Journal

    Trend- Yeah, that's one thing I was wondering about -- would the paper gains get eaten up by commissions and slippage. But I was also wondering if someone out there might have any ideas for how to beat this. Could using limit orders on a brokerage like Ameritrade that charges $10 per...

    Low-Volume Swing System Journal

    Sure...after the program does it's thing, the list is generated onto an excel sheet. ;) The program is pretty much a "black box". It only uses price data, so it's doing some kind of technical analysis. Discussion of such isn't something I want to get into at this point, but if there...

    Low-Volume Swing System Journal

    Hi All, ***** HISTORY / OVERVIEW ***** I'm starting a journal that will track one portion of a stock picking program I have, which I find myself unable to trade well enough to generate the kind of return that papertrading gets. The program follows thousands of stocks and ranks them...

    Something very simplistic

    In my neverending quest to exactly replicate Quah, I dumped Qcharts and went with esignal+ensign. Attached is a screenshot. Quah, you will be my biggest hero ever if you would be willing to look at it and offer help with: 1. The times. No idea why it seems to keep synching me with...

    Quah: I assume you are using esignal+ensign for svss also? zorak

    Something very simplistic

    Well, what I mean is, what do you consider clear. Attached is the shot from that period...the line is on 10:08. Why did you not choose that time to enter? For that matter, the 10:06 was also well below. zorak

    Something very simplistic

    Yep, it would have worked out well...but of course I wasn't in it, heh. More proof someone up there hates me: in each of the days I have been doing NQ, I missed 2 or 3 of the first trades while waiting for the first to conclude. In each day, all the ones I missed were winners. (I...

    Something very simplistic

    Yep, same on both ES and NQ. Nice to see Quah makes a mistake every once in awhile, I was starting to think I had the market cornered! Attached is my final spreadsheet, for the time being...the last loss dropped me below margin, so I'm toast for a few days at least. In my attempt to...

    Something very simplistic

    Quah, both trades I made today, I went the opposite way you did (9:33 and 9:43). They were both coinflips at the time...or so I thought. If the lines are nearly intersecting or otherwise very close, what do you use as a tie-breaker? Also, as someone else mentioned, it is incredible how...
