I like GLD at this level, too, but then I like GLD at almost any level.

I ignore intuition, gut, etc.

TradeStation, and I suspect other platforms, allows any number of minutes for bars (1, 30, 60, 479, anything). Three days is 1170 minutes, so set it for that, and you have 3-day bars.

Get over yourself. You sound like a snowflake who voted for Hillary. Cowboy up and trade, or else forget it. No good will come of feeding the concerns in your post. Good luck.

Price action can be programmed, automated, and back tested; however, it is not trivial.

One can back test pretty much anything imaginable with TradeStation's Easy Language. I have been using it about 15 years.

As you foretold, you'll probably need your fire-retardant suit soon. Meanwhile, good stuff. Merry Christmas!

I have been writing, scanning, and back testing trading program code since 2001. I have about 200 strategies written in TradeStation's Easy Language All of them have been profitable at one time or another. I am not associated with any broker at the moment, though I did have a Series 7 license a...

Ditto.

I recommend you switch to TradeStation.

I write indicators and automated strategies for use on TradeStation. I have over 200 of them, all of which have been profitable in various markets, and some of which are profitable today. Finding a winning strategy, algorithm, indicator is easy. Making money by trading with them it is a horse of...

Everything you need to know for trading is contained in the price chart. Nothing else is necessary.

I suggest you concentrate on trading, and trade small. You have a lot to learn. Learn how to trade well, and don't worry about making money. Making money is almost automatic if you trade well. Trading well means being patient, and taking only good setups. Cheers!

C'mon! Stock does not destroy anyone or anything. People who are stupid enough to invest in a company producing one product, a product which is of questionable value in the first place, lost some money. That's all. That didn't "absolutely destroy American investors and their families." Those...

It comes from central banks, and none of it is "money." It is fiat currency, and it has no intrinsic "value." If you want to retain some sanity about this subject, learn to think gold and silver.

You are headed down a tunnel where there is no cheese. Your journey may provide hours and hours of amusement, frustration, and hope, but it's a dead end as far as profit is concerned. Enjoy!

I'm expecting a market crash within 12 months at least as bad as 2008, no matter who wins. The president has little to do with it.

I recommend you stick with the 9-5 job. Dabble with trading 5-10 years. If you reach the point where make $100k over the course of a year by trading, then consider trading as a full-time career.

You're welcome. FWIW, I have found that it's fairly easy to create a strategy that will work over 3-4 months. After that length of time, the market usually changes, and a different strategy is needed. If my strategy stops making money for 2-3 weeks, I make another one. For example, the one I am...

I'm sorry I didn't see your post earlier. I don't monitor these threads very often. Here are the answers to your questions, as well as I can understand them: 1. TradeStation EasyLanguage. I have been writing strategies for about 15 years, and I have at least 100 of them. Some work sometimes in...
