Here are todays trades in EST..... 710 hrs sell stop 1.4 pts result- -1.6 pts 941 hrs buy stop 2pt result- -2pt 947 hrs buy 1.4 pt stop result- -1.2 pts 1117 hrs sell 1.6 pt stop result- 2.9 pts 941 and 947 were fades / buying against the sharp downmove . These were both...

The sell stopped out -1.6 pts with slippage . Looking at a 240 min. I can see a head and shoulders buy from 100 hrs but I havent had much success with such low volume signals . I am going to watch the channel on a daily chart and wait to see what shapes up on the lesser timeframes .

Today - 710 hrs sell 698.8 stop 1.4 pts target 693 ( previous days low ) sell signal on 60 min. Fill is 8 ticks better than trigger price ( fill = previous close - 1 tick )

I am only concerned with points per contract and use a one lot . Trailing price with one contract leads to leaving profit on the table but I am focused closely on 10 , 15 and longer timeframes to help me move the stop in my favor .

With limit orders set at resistance or support of some sort . Dont forget I am using a simulator right now and I see the spread on the DOM . The limit orders seem legit because they always trade through at least a tick and I double check the price on Esignal .

I hear Roger designed the Code for the TI indicators while he worked for them a while back . I find it complicates things if you have to align too many things to take a trade . Its better for me to have a clear signal or two that I look for in the right comditions and repeat it over and over...

In following the trend the HD is useful but we are trained to take them if they are in a trend channel and price is positioned near its top for a short or its bottom for a long . Also if no volume exhaustion is present and price making clear trending action like stairstepping gives the HD a...

Thanks Reaver and jimmy jam . Good thread , I agree about the rules and thats what I use to keep out of major trouble . FT is no holy grail because I know there is no such thing . I am a newbie for sure and learned the hard way that finding what works for ME is what works .

Sure , I know Roger . He got my coins already but seems to customize his calls on his recap to suit his method . His hd calls dont have a consistent form to commit any rules to . Theyre hard to use in general .
