I have a couple of questions: Is Mandlebrat also Becky? It seems like he / she tries to answer a lot of questions directed to Becky. If this is Becky's reversal strategy, then on her 6 point loser the other day, why didn't she stop and reverse at the 4 point mark, which would be the...

All day Friday, the high tick readings and the low trin just wouldn't let up. I kept wondering, "who is doing all of this buying?" Now we know. Hank's friends. Must be nice.

1277 it is...thanks

maybe my numbers are wrong h-1281 l-1235 c-1236.5

my s1 @ 1220.50...are you only using pit hours for h/l/c?.

I forgot to add that on page 17 of this thread becky posted the following: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "So if it moved that big within the first 30 mins (most of the time it happens in 15 mins) it means that the market is most probably will...

Try $ISSU symbol on qcharts...5 minutes...candlestick. It is the same chart that Becky posted with different numbers on the x axis. You can go to qcharts.com and plug it in for free. It looks like $issu combines nyse advances/declines/unchanged to get its' value.

Didn't e-sig buy qcharts a few years ago? I thought Becky said she takes a signal when her adv/dec indicator exceeds 3,000? I don't see it above 3.000 on her chart from Tuesday?

If this is the a/d indicator that Becky is referencing then it's pretty simple: If there are about 900 more advancers than decliners or about 900 more decliners than advancers than she gets her signal. Simple, no chart needed for this....just look at the adv and dec. When she posts...

Do you have any statistics as to the p/l of the trades you take when the es opens up or down beyond 1% of the previous close?

Yep. and markets are constantly changing and you must change with them. Becky's break-out is just her own version of Tony Crabel, Mark Fisher's ACD, etc. Nothing new, she has just wrapped it into something she says is working at this time. Buying or selling a 4 point break-out might work when...

There are a lot of folks who read these threads and I believe observation of the markets and observation of others' ideas are a good way to formulate your own trading method over time. If the other filters (nas, xlf, avd/dec) don't line up with the fade, then I'm more cautious. More cautious...

I would just watch the normal adv/dec on the nyse. Like right now, it's 2256/838. XLF is up 2.87%. XLF was a huge per cent of the S&P 500 last year when all of those stocks were near their highs. Of course, as they crashed they became a much lessor part. You are correct though about the...

BoyBrutus, you will want to use the PP's that are most commonly used which are the classics. The others might work, too I've just never used them. As you put up the PP's day after day, watch how the markets react to them and do pay attention to the Nas, XLF, and adv/dec for a general bias...

Thank you for the clarification, sir. I had originally thought this was a thread on Becky Biggs sharing some of her ideas on trading and how she determines when and why to take a trade. As per your explanation, I now see that is just a posting of someone's entries and exits. Again, thank...

Thank you so much. I do know what the advaning and declining issues are. What I don't understand and I can't find where Becky Biggs has ever elaborated on is, what is the +3,000 / -3,000 number that she refers to as her main filter for a trade. It would be great if Becky Biggs could...

not at all. please, let us know what adv/dec indicator you are looking at that has a reading of +3000 / -3000. as I said, I'm pretty dense. thank you in advance for the explanation and the sharing of ideas.

I guess I'm not too smart and a little slow. I guess I don't "know it by now". What adv/dec do you see that has a +3000 or -3000 reading? I don't even see what basic idea you have shared other than buy 4 points above / sell 4 points below the open, which you have now stated is not really...

Please, review how the adv/dec gave you a buy signal this morning. Thanks in advance. (didn't the es open at 9:30am at 1272?)
