This is the best advice you will ever receive for what you are trying to do

Interesting conversation and the concept of "You and your thoughts are not the same" is a conclusion I arrived at many years ago. Rande do you see the commonality between golf and trading.

Hi CL, I have not waded through all this thread but I probably will. If I have the gist of it, you are saying that it takes certain skills and mindset to successfully start up a company and it takes certain skills and mindset to succeed at trading but they are not the same ... in fact they...

you are very brave ... the stuff that heroes are made from

How about this action for a fun opening

why 1320

Well we have agreed that inflation is measured as a "bottom up"thingy ... in other words inflation is what it is to you and your peers and friends. Actually, most things are this way in our lives and gov. tries to exploit this by feeding us disjointed scraps of information leading us to...

Well if there are to be biases in the numbers, then John's figures must lead away from BLS otherwise he would cease to exist, and the gov. bias will naturally lean away from wasting money on indexed people, particularly if they are unlikely to vote for them. However this group is growing too...

Ooooh am I going to enjoy this reply

very interesting set of numbers. Why 1312.00 for the stop

99.50 ish is a good entry for a short normally, but right now we are all standing in front of a train.

Yes you have taken this line of thinking to the limit and yes things must change, preferably gradually in order to reflect the current situation. I agree with you. Companies come and go from DOW and S&P in the same manner. That is the consistency of change and growth. However, we must...

Yes, we need to prevent ourselves from trying to hard and just learn to relax back and let price do the work and come to us if we have positioned ourselves correctly. If we haven't then no harm done as a buy/sell order will not trigger. It is a lot like learning to ski. The harder we try...

Praise the Lord. That must come as an immense relief to Arturo .... a weight has been lifted in a manner of speaking.

How does Arturo feel about you trading his instrument

If you don't have a pullback then what are you going to breakout from. Even 1 tick is a pullback. The real question is "what constitutes a meaningful pullback" within the current trend.

Very good points. I see your posted chart is 5 Min, do you use a longer one as a leading chart. Are you constantly watching the charts ... this can lead to confusion at times, especially if you have locked onto one pattern and miss the new underlying pattern that is building ... this where a...

But Arturo the masses want the holy grail. They don't want code that they cannot understand. No more bread please, they want cake and the holy grail. Please do not desert them now in their hour of need

You wish. You hope. In reality we do not know what the outcome will be. History records that the reaction to such moves is usually contrary to the original plan. You know the old saying. "Cheers up things could be worse" and sure enough, things did get worse.
