Yes, but you did stay pretty cool - had I been short, I would have exited T4 for a loss on that IBV bar long before it closed back inside the LM. Thanks for the commentary! - palinuro

Thanks to Icarus and ehorn for posting the trade sequences. I find having a sequence is generally enough to figure out what the person is seeing, and what 'rules' he/she is following. And working that out from the execution reports and the chart is perhaps even more useful than having it...

I find seeing people's actual entries and exits very useful, but I think it would be more helpful to see all of them rather than only the occasional great trade. P.S.: Great trade!

The details of the basic version of PVT have been spelled out with great clarity since the second post of Spydertrader's first Equities journal. So it's not as if they have suddenly been revealed. To backtest the system properly, you need weekly Final Universe lists for the period in...

If I'm not mistaken, the chart for SOLF, which Spydertrader posted as soon as this discussion started, also shows an unconfirmed blue up channel. Perhaps comparing it to the first chart will help clarify what he is seeing....

Auto Pace Lines for NT. For daily charts, you set the period; for intraday charts you set the session times and it uses all days loaded into the chart. There's also an option to print volume and range values to the output window. -palinuro

SSB, do you mean current WLD users will have to purchase WL5 as a new program, at full price?

I think that probably is the best, but then you're tracking 30 instruments, and subject to any delays in those updates. I've found everything but IB can lag the market 30 seconds and more during high volatility periods. So I settle for their snapshot delivery in exchange for more or less...

Str-Sq is all in the calculations. I've tried running 3 simultaneously--fixed offset, sma offset, and sma offset with a synthetic index-- and the 3 values were VERY different.

My take: 10:50 - ES lat BO in DBV = Change; YM IRV = Continue; Hold Short 10:55 - ES IRV Continue; YM lat continue;, Hold Short 11:00 - ES VE on DRV, Change; YM FBO on IRV (change), but forms new p3, Continue; Hold Short 11:05 ES IBGS IRV, Change; YM IBGS IRV change; Reverse Long...

I'm late to the discussion again, but I have a different question about this sequence: I saw change to Long confirmed with that incr B bar, but then the next bar's much decr B volume suggested change back to Short. Doesn't that bar indicate a nondominant traverse, looking for a retrace...

I'm curious, what are those numbers above your volume bars?

dkm, Thanks for posting that, I find these helpful. My analysis is virtually identical, but I have trouble with the confidence (and perhaps patience) required to wait for bar close. And my anticipation of where we'll be at bar close is not accurate enough. Yesterday I started to...

I apologize for the multiple posts and uploads. I added methods for Earnings.Com. -palinuro

This isn't an indicator as such, but contains C#/NT methods for getting earnings dates from Yahoo and ClearStation. The methods themselves are generic C#, so can be easily transported elsewhere. The indicator is currently set up to print the charted stock's earnings dates to the output...

I just put together some C# methods for ClearStation and Zacks yesterday, with Yahoo next. (Are there other good or better sources?) But the only 'package' I have for them is NT - I thought I'd set it up to read the symbols from a file and Print the result to the output window (or...

Here's my chart and log from this morning. Any comments / critiques much appreciated. E.g., did I enter long too early? was I correct to hold through the chop? ... and all the things I haven't thought of ...

I assume you are looking for critical reflection on principles rather than a list of rules. I think I would start from a somewhat different premise - more along these lines: Perfect proportionality between Price (volatility, direction) and Volume (quantity) is used by this method as a...

NT users, Is there a way to get new blank charts for replay without deleting the previously drawn lines (and with it my actual history)? Even when I open a new chart, as they suggest, my lines are still there.... TIA

I think this was just covered in Spydertrader's exchange with Romanus: Quote from Spydertrader: In the previous example I provided, you have chosen to view the market as only providing signals at the end of the bar. Quote from Romanus: It is quite clear to me now that Jokari window is...
