Jack, Thankyou for your help and suggestions!!! So far I have... (1) Ok...so I went to Christopher Lott's Q and A and read up on macd and tweaked my macd to 5-7-13. (2) Played around with my screen to get the right 1/3 of the screen blank so we can see the future (or write our...

Beeflover, Trader28's system basically is a good system. If their is a problem, it is the entry signal on the zero line crossing. It seems that the professional traders/money managers play games at the zero line (my opinion). So... knowing that, what do we do??? Ah... yes the...

Once this January 2007 rolls around and the Democrats get the power I think the volatility in the markets will be back. I can trade volatility...I can't seem to trade a flat market. Maybe what I need to do is learn how to trade a totality flat market...then I'd have something... snarlyjack

I would love to hit this market for 100 points long or short, everyday. However, my life seems to be about learning how to trade and taking what the market gives. And I thought this was going to be a walk in the park... But what choice do we have...learn to trade and trade well or get...

Bmwhendrix, I would have to disagree with your statement that this trading system does not work. Imho, the market (ym) just seems very flat. We are at all time highs and I think the market is waiting and watching (marking time) to see what will happen in our crazy world. I still...

BB, I forgot, my system doesn't have - or + offsets. So I end up Jimmy Rigging my system to look about the same. snarlyjack

I think the secret to this whole thing is: It's all in how we look at the screen and prices. God knows we can look at this thing 100's of different ways. But if we could only look at it the right way we would really have something. I think it's all in the visual presentation of the whole...

Hey BB, I tweaked my system (just a tad) that really helped. (1) Same basic set-up as Trader28!!! (same trade). (2) Keltner channel (10). Better view of the whole thing! (3) Close Price (like typical price or weighted price) only close price. (4) EMA3 as my stop. (5) ***Real...

Pekelo, Thanks for your advice on W%R . I'll put it on the screen and watch it. It does seem like it moves early... I like Williams cause both he and I are from Montana. He has quite the reputation around here! Not many millionaire commodity traders run for the senate in Montana...

Pekelo, thanks for your answer. If you don't mind 1 more question? I've been studying Williams %R and Stochastics. I'm a short term trader (ym) using trader28 system. Which is MACD 9-12-26. Along with Keltner Channel (10) and EMA9. I would like to add 1 more indicator to my...

Mo06, I agree. But when I take a trade, I really can't tell a good trade from a bad trade. I look at the trade setup then say to myself, this looks great. So I enter the trade and it flips back on me. Other times I enter the trade and it goes like crazy. What do I know...I am still...

Jack, I see the 1 good trade ( 40 points) this morning at 8:00 mountain time. And a few fast trades (10 points). I've been thinking about the small fast trades. Let's say they go for 7 points. $35.00 - $5. comm. = $30.00 If person could trade at least 1 every hour. You would...

I only trade the (ym). When I first learned to trade, the ym is what I learned on. So... with that in mind the points in the YM that I look for are between 7 and 20 points. After 20 points, I am very nervous as the ym will flip back on you. When I get very good at this, I think I'll...

EqtTrader, It was this post that brought me out of the dark "lurker" category and brought me into the light. I had been a lurker for about 6 months and had read through this post and said to myself, snarly...you need to start posting. I've never looked back...glad to be here...

Trader28, Would a 3 sma with a 2 offset be the equivalent (approx.) to maybe a 4sma? I called the help people at Omnitrader and my program can't do offsets (figures). Thanks snarlyjack

Did I tell ya that Captain Morgan goes in coffee very nicely!!! Ya all should try it... Party On!!! snarlyjack

I think the market could be pretty unpredictable today. I have a funny feeling that their are some pretty pissed off people. As in the elections didn't go their way! As for myself, I'm gonna be partying all day long. It's about time we started straightening this mess out. So party on...

Myminitrading, I totality agree with you!!! You said it very well... snarlyjack

Trader28, Winter in the USA = now or coming. Summer in Australia = now or coming. With our new found wealth! I've heard that Australia is a great place to go. Especially if it's winter in the usa. So...Where would you recommend we go when we fly down under for a winter break...

See page 158 and on... I took the candles off and put colored bars on. I think the candles were messing me up and with the colored bars with (h.l.c.o.) I can see the action clearer and still have the red/green colors. But I guess this is where everyone is different... Hope this helps...
