Very true... We always try to find a better solution but maybe the best solution is just to accept the risk after a while. But I think we still should question things because things do not always appear the way they claimed. Sometimes even the originators of some methodologies were fooled...

Does software engineer count as an engineer? I don't make a good trader because I am too used to 1+1=2... now I am getting used to 1+1 does not = 2 but is damn close most of the time. Anyway engineers work hard... I am still doing night-shift software consulting with my old firm because noone...

They ended his short segment before he has a chance to get much into the stars.

I think this is market specific, I trade ES countertrend 70-80% profitable 2:1 risk-reward. Here is for the fellow countertrend traders who are pulling their hair out. The trick is once you have one losing trade, do not trade for the rest of the day. If I keep hammer it away the percent...

Spydie, Thanks again. I am really thinking about this. Good trading to all. Regards, William P.S. I think the initialization code might not be necessary since we pinpoint the problem to be in the data. Wealth-lab script probably zeroes out thing in the global area??

Spydie, No I got the hint before... I think that is an inherent problem with myself which got magnified when trading someone else's system. At first, I thought this is a swing trading system but as I delve into it... It becomes more like a day trading system as many probe trades didn't go...

Holy smoke! Maybe the problem is in the Wealth-lab volume data. I have the two images side by side. Look at LIFC's volume for today. They are different!

I just notice the VOLUME AVG(65) are different too... that part I don't know why? I double check and they both have today's bar as data in the chart. Hmmm....

Spydie, I am not gonna post the IBD stuff here but I feel if the system doesn't work just because I change from stocktables.com to IBD (I think they are very similar) ... that would bother me. Didn't you mention a couple of times that CANSLIM people seems to help pump JH stocks when the two...

As suggested by MBTrader: IBD 100 Final Universe: BOOM CTHR CUTR HANS LUFK NWRE No signal for tommorrow. I am gonna try trading this.

No, your idea is whether this stuff will work with stocks not limited by the stocktables.com parameters. I never like trading low-price stocks.

You mean replacing stocktables.com with IBD 100? I think it's a good idea. I will try it.

From what I read, they did not make good on it at least very slow in the process. All the security means shit if it is an inside job.

I can only answer the first question... the restriction is on your cash account only but you should ask your broker and they should answer that. P.S. Have you read about E-Trade having security problem here? People got money wire out of their account by a third party and E-Trade said it's...

Hi Mark, Which data service did you change to? Thank you for your input. This helps a lot. Regards, William

Then maybe the market was not as crazy as I saw since I was looking at my chart using eSignal feed...

I am surprise the eSignal quote cannot keep up with the market during the storm. Tradestation quotes seem to be the correct one when I placed my short (nicely covered). This is one weird day.

I felt sorry I did not enter my long setup but sitting thru this!! It's still whipping around. P.S. How would you feel make and lose $300 per contract per second back and forth for the next five minutes?

Holy shit. Did you see those 6 point air pockets in S&P emini futures? Are they real? They are happening in seconds whipping back and forth!!

I have no trade today on the ES... Dump all the stocks... FMOC please come and get me. :D
