If I had to pick, and I have no idea, I would say the first one may be most likely to be a bottom. On daily charts I sometimes see higher than average volume on a down day that marks the end (or near the end) of a down trend. This is counter intuitive to me though because I would assume...

Well I don't have his email address but I've been told that he doesn't trade the way he discussed on ET. His thread was indicators and HH HL stuff.

As an investment, maybe. In 10 or 20 years Detroit might be a cool place to live and houses might be $200,000 and if you bought one for $5,000 that would be a good return on your investment. But I wouldn't live there now.

Are you saying the journal was mocking ET users and feeding them disinformation? In other words, Anek trades differently than how he presented it in the thread and just did that to confuse people?

I'm not deadset on leaving Scottrade. They're awesome. I just want to pay less than $7 per trade.

Source?

I was under the impression that no one used the original AHG method (because it didn't work?) and instead they switched to price action and calling tops and bottoms.

Bump. More charts/discussion?

In for this. I use Scottrade and usually trade pretty small size so if I could get less than $7 per trade that would be cool.

I'll participate.

Buy highs in an uptrend. Seems like selling highs wouldn't work very often unless maybe you're in chop or happen to get a top that happens to be a double top. If price didn't make a double top and instead made a higher high and then started going back down, you wouldn't have entered.

lol!

How are you using $TICK? I tested it extensively and found no useful price relation. Kind of disappointing after John Carter hyped it up so much in his book.

I think you should, but be aware you'll get different advice from everyone who posts in it. When I made a PA thread I even had someone PM me and offer to teach me for $2,000 and then get all mad when I said no. As you may expect, they offered no proof that they are profitable, nor able to...

I am interested in this, too, since I've tried similar things in the past but without hard stops. One time this happened:

What are your targets for your open positions?

It's interesting that you mentioned this. When I was studying jjrvat's method with HH, HL, LH, and LL and only taking trades in the direction of the trend, one of the things I thought of trying was adding one contract on each pullback and not closing any of them out until the trend changed...

Are you going to buy any Bitcoin? What do you think about that as an investment opportunity?

For my relatively short test period, I had negative expectancy when using a 240 WMA and 21 HMA and taking trades when both slopes lined up. In order to have positive expectancy (for my relatively short test period) I had to add in another price action factor. The negative expectancy was...

Over trading to lose money on commissions probably doesn't count.
