    Great sequence Cnms2. Form me, the most impressive part was the start where it took a couple of reverses before you where proved to be on the right side of the market. Then again later, after the HVS reversing and reversing back. Quality stuff. Did you ever have trouble (emotional) with the...

    I can understand where babs is coming from. For me I have 'taken it on faith' for now. It is something I am interested in proving. However I am not sure you can even do this empirically with different fractals. A 2 minute fractal is useful for timing when trading a 5 minute fractal anyway...

    Thanks Ezzy. On a different note a couple of people have posted about doing better when they are not constantly scouring for FTT's. I guess we should anticipate continuation and look for evidence of this then if it is not forthcoming then perhaps look for evidence of a fault (which is...

    Last few days I have been considering a few things. One i have been pondering is this.... I think there are 'early traders' and 'late traders'. Each has advantages and disadvantages. BTW this is speaking from the point of view of using course tools only (ES & YM2min). Without the benefit of...

    EDIT: I have been catching up the weekends post and now see that this has been answered already.oops. I think the answer is probably no. I posted a similar question a few pages back and got a couple of PMs from people who had unsuccessfully tried to locate these. Perhaps someone who is...

    Callmate your approach sounds eminently sensible. IMO belief is one of the cornerstones of success. I have noticed during the course of this thread Tums has very sensibly referred people 'back' to build that strong foundation of 'belief'. I think I would probably be safe in saying that he has...

    This particular puzzle is also on my list for further investigation, though I have given it some thought. Great observations on your chart made perfect sense to me. The bigger issue is probably distinguishing between M/W day and non M/W day. Larger context can give some clues but I am sure...

    Good Morning, I am trying to locate the following :- IF1 IF2 Strategy Report, Staying on the Right Side of the Market Report (APA trading), and HVS Report. Does anyone have copies? I did come across this http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=22612&perpage=6&pagenumber=2...

    Thanks, mine are the same as lost traders though I had an extra up sloping one from somewhere.

    I was interested to see how you dealt with the 12.00-1.00 guassians all the R2R and B2B ing had me upside down. Not so unexpected for the time of day I suppose. If its not too much trouble would you mind posting a chart with your carry over channels for today? Thanks.

    I made a couple of bucks earlyish, mornings like that re-enforce the over cautious (fearful)behaviour. I missed the big move that started at about ten after 1.00 even though it came off one of my main multiday channels just didn't have a good read on the previous hour or so's volume so wanted...

    By widen the tape I guess you mean put on volatility expansion lines? I do this (I think this is the the preferred method). However I also 'fan' lines with a steeper slope, I do this quite freely when pace increases. As you say a stall can give yet another set of lines that is between the...

    Haha I see 'family time' is a euphemism for writing your nuts off where you come from :D Great intro for the month.

    Mathematically Predicting the Future?

    Just use a monthly bar and have your model spit out next months high and low. thats close to 30 days. As for un-related stuff used for prediction ask in alt.gann.astro.tinfoilhats :D I hear the serious planetary parctioners like to call it "natural law" so people dont thik they are loopy.

    Why do people use Volume, Range and Tic charts?

    You could do worse than reading "New Blueprints for Gains in Stocks and Grains" and "One-Way Formula for Trading in Stocks & Commodities". I think you can get them in a single publication. Something for everyone there. I particularly liked his price action stuff and the general rigour he...

    Probably was RT! Having said that I know I would have found it murder with open positions through all those 10 15 or 20 minute 'flaws'. (hope my terminology is correct). Actually the post that someone copied recently where Jack is talking about finding 3 or 4 opportunities where the pace is...

    Nice to see you around Spyder, thanks for your annotations. I know that a long 'measuring bar' denotes the confines of a lateral I missed that one with the subsequent DB. I may have remembered subsequently if price found its way back down there! :) I was pleased to have the dip confirmed...

    For some reason I didn't feel like pulling the trigger today. One piece of advice I intend following is really look for the quality changes for entry. So anyway I decided to be an armchair general and splatted arrows on my chart where I would have entered. Amazingly easy to do this (real...

    I'd be interested in that. I promise not to speak unless spoke too!

    Indeed - however most everything that you could possibly need and then some is already in the thread. Personally my chief area of focus (where I'd like to squeeze some more juice) is the Decide Act portions of the MADA protocol. I am very much enjoying some of Cnms2's posts in this regard...
