    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    ok, If I step away from the computer I can see the market for what it truly is today = chop. When I sit with my nose 2 inches from the screen it looks like, uptrend/downtrend/uptrend/downtrend! :D

    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    I see, so it also doesn't "count" as a failure because there was no close below the earlier low. No position to reverse. I get it.

    however, after a double top, we did make a LL, and now a LH, right? LL by .5 pt.

    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    Anek has warned several times (make that, many times) don't go by the wick alone, must have a close. This one got about as close as possible without an actual close below.

    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    I agree, bright green bars heading up, but... only two HL and ONE HH at that point. Don't we need to wait for a 2nd HH ? now... double top and TL break? edit.... I see Anek, I see! :) harder than it looks! :(

    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    CX, one thing we need to be very careful about is hindsight trading when we look at these charts. When I look at Area #1 I see the chart shows a lower low first, so I would not be looking for a long entry at that point. It looks like the last HH was made after a double top, although I am not...

    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    Here is where I see us, right now. Trend has changed from down to up, but following AHG you have to wait for two (count em) two, higher lows and higher highs. I see a trendline break, and finally 2 higher highs, now looking for a long entry.... right? ......... still waiting. It's...

    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    wow, you really nailed it! :) Congrats! Is each circle an entry? ie, green = long entry, red = short entry, so exits are not marked on the chart? I hope you let some of those runners run.

    At least my investment portfolio is up on the day. :) Interesting, portfolio matches high water mark of July 19 when the stock indices had their closing highs (DOW 14000) One major difference between July 19 and today is the UST long bond is 4 or 5 points higher today.

    frugi - that is an incredible fill! (everyone will be saying, "why didn't i do that?" ) saliva - I am firmly on the sidelines today. My order to buy SDS remains unfilled. I need ES at about 1570 to get filled. apex - you can't make 20 pts on ES and expect that other garbage to go...

    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    It is with great trepidation that I post this chart. I only took 3 trades today, and they were marginal. But I have to say, with the full benefit of hindsight there were not very many true AHG entries today, if you waited for 2 HH/HL or 2 LH/LL to define the trend. My first trade I was...

    Greenspan is making all this noise (granting countless interviews, going on 60 minutes, etc )to coincide with the release of his book. Really really bad timing I think. To me Alan Greenspan looks, talks and acts like Woody Allen. Once you get that image in your head you will never get...

    I can unzip the file, but when I try to open the ELD file I get no Analysis Types and I can't proceed with the Tradestation import wizard. Any idea what is wrong?
