    What is the edge in your trade?

    What on earth made you start going long at the top there? Yes, the trend clearly looks up, but you're going long at essentially the previous swing high? Edit: I think I can answer my own question. There is that big bull bar you like to point out, and I know you like your bull bars favoring...

    Tell me why averaging down is a bad idea .

    Thanks for taking the time, but I honestly don't see it this way at all. Refer to my notes. You took the long at A roughly, and I see nothing at this point that says its a range. Yes, I see the one big bull bar that you indicated, but where we are breaking out, I just see that as a reason to...

    Sorry, I don't agree. You think that just because price goes back down again that it means it will head lower? No way! How often do a see a level you're watching get poked, and then it takes off, but then it breaks down again, maybe even breaks the previous low by a couple of ticks to catch...

    Tell me why averaging down is a bad idea .

    Its a good explanation, but I just don't see it. Even the way you draw the top of the range that you state, meaning the top of the gray rectangle. I mean that top attached to nothing significant. I like the top of a range to be a bar that sticks out, and then a test of this which shows that...

    Tell me why averaging down is a bad idea .

    I understand your explanation, and it clearly worked out for you, but I just don't think that at the point of your first long entry, you can say that there is a range. If I use your chart, chop off everything but the long entries, and then highlight the series of lower high and lower lows, its...

    I look at this a bit differently. Lets say you have a level at 2910 you are watching and price bounces off nicely. Now its at 2912. You enter long. When you do this, you don't know if it will test 2910 one more time, or even poke it perhaps. But going long at 2912 was your only option at...

    Tell me why averaging down is a bad idea .

    You're always saying that most breakout fail, and yet, here you go long after price is breaking out of bear channel. It seems like you did the exact opposite of what you always say to do. Now don't get me wrong, at least you are showing how you're trading this, that is even more important than...

    Do you really think this is the correct conclusion? Like I say, I've watched many of your videos, and I see patterns, but the patterns are sometimes a lack structure. There didn't seem to be a method to your scaling in, nor to your stops. (of course I don't know what your initial plan is, so...

    I have watched many of your videos and have actually screen captured the final few minutes where all trades are displayed on the chart. Kudos for sharing so much. One of the things I see is that there isn't too much consistency. I think you said in some video a while back that you're trying...

    I have to say, one of the things I admire about your trading is that you're respecting your stops. On the one hand, it can be said that all you're doing is averaging into losers, and I see lots of this in your videos, but when the stop comes, you take the hit. It is a bit unfortunate that you...

    You say its so easy that even a cave man can do it, but didn't you get it wrong? LOL... You're supposed to buy at the RTH close and sell at the RTH open, no?

    The thing about trading breakouts...

    @Baron You really should be charging this guy for being a Bookmap rep. He also needs it written in his signature.

    What I would love to see would be the full recording of a day called out in advance, not one picked after days of filming where that scaled in position finally worked. (I can show you a picture of an extremely hot girl I once fucked, but we all know that this wouldn't be representative of most...

    Live Interviews w/Optimus Futures Traders

    Yes, he does go back and forth between CL and ES, but at 32:50 he makes the direct comparison. He talks about how a huge order is gone when comparing the current order on the DOM in Sierra vs. the historical offers on Bookmap, but this is because he is on two different instruments. Like I say...

    Do you have less than 5 years trading experience … then you need to talk with me

    By seeing a sample of trades, both winners and losers, along with what happened to price between the entry and exit, tells you very much about the trader. Your intro about yourself sounded very nice, but its all just words unfortunately. Its important to know what kind of a trader you are...

    Live Interviews w/Optimus Futures Traders

    Sorry to be so critical, but I watched the first video with Tom and am left scratching my head. In my opinion, and just my opinion, his ideas are elementary, and I question his understanding of some issues. Since you introduce him as being an educator, I think its important to point out where...

    Google Chrome has become surveillance software.

    Thanks for the tip. I just tried it out, and its amazing how easy the switch was. Going from Chrome you feel right at home. I'm also seeing a fairly significant savings in terms of memory usage. It seems to be superior in every way!

    Do you have less than 5 years trading experience … then you need to talk with me

    One request before I read any more. Can you post a few charts with trades marked by the platform, on something like a 1 minute chart, where the entry and exit is clear?
