Trade ES 1M, 3M, 5M 6 trade per day average Target on most trades is 2 points. Signal on 5M looks for 6 points. All info on what I do is in an earlier journal. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=18677

I am interested in what method others use to trade. I know this is a general question............it is intended to be. I trade in short time frames and use a divergence system that relies on double tops and double bottoms. An analysis is made and signal is generated based on comparing price...

Here's how my charts are set up if you want to see how it looks.

I make out fine with TradeStation, $115 Month. I don't need a lot of customer service, which I have read here on the forum is not to good. If I have a computer issue or ISP issue, the Trading Desk always answers. Also, the moderators at www.tradestationworld.com are responsive and helpful. I...

INSTEAD OF COMPLAINING ABOUT WHAT YOU DON'T LIKE ABOUT YOUR TRADING, START COMMENDING WHAT YOU DO LIKE AND SEE HOW QUICKLY IT IMPROVES. It's easy to find fault with any job. Whatever your occupation or profession, there are always some unpleasant and mundane tasks you would rather omit. It...

I think it is important to understand that we are all a part of the "information revolution". Much like the 'industrial revolution" wrote the history books, we are experiencing a huge shift in paradigm in the world. Do not be too quick to judge your occupation as a trader as not creating any...

Why not tell us your plan in detail. We will help you evaluate it. Consider starting a journal using the plan and live call some of your trades so they can be discussed. We will all help you if you ask.

Reverend, I am, however, it is not my intent here to share any religious beliefs.

I would point out that you can trade the Asian session also, basically, starts early evening, around 6:30 - on. The movement is usually slow, not always though, it is kinda like lunchtime here in the US. Go to www.metaquotes.net. Download there charting program which provides a free data...

If you really want to trade at night from the US, and you better really understand what this will do to you mentally and physically, you should be trading the FOREX. Learn this and trade the London session. Things start to heat up around 2 AM EST. This is not for the weak of heart, but you...

Why would you want to go short on Friday afternoon, end of your trading week, DOW and S&P screaming upward. A wrong call would ruin your day and week. I waited to see if a sell signal occured on Friday afternoon. It is almost there, needed a couple red candles, never occurred. No need to...

It's not how much you make, its how much you keep.

Supported by Monthly. Bouncing off a double bottom, especially.

YOU EITHER RIDE LIFE OR IT RIDES YOU. YOUR MENTAL ATTITUDE DETERMINES WHO IS "RIDER" AND WHO IS "HORSE." There is no compromise or negotiation when it comes to who will run your life. Either you take charge and live a productive life of your choosing or you allow yourself to be ruled by...

IT IS ALWAYS SAFE TO TALK ABOUT OTHERS AS LONG AS YOU SPEAK OF THEIR GOOD QUALITIES. The old adage "If you can't say something nice about someone, don't say anything at all" is especially valid today. In any organization, regardless of size, the rumor mill works overtime when it comes to...

The plunge is coming. Not a question of "if". just when. You will tell your grandkids about the big one. Look at the big picture, especially the strength of USD in the World and "Trade in the Now" Are we investors or are we traders:confused:

I would also add, I have successfully picked up a few points after hours. I only will do this when I am at my computer for another reason. I use my divergence system, just reduce the time frame to 15 ticks and look for 2 points. It is actually very responsive to my technicals.

TRYING TO GET WITHOUT FIRST GIVING IS AS FRUITLESS AS TRYING TO REAP WITHOUT HAVING SOWN. The Bible states that we reap what we sow. The most fertile soil in the world is barren unless seeds have been properly planted, cultivated, and nurtured. The relationship between giving and getting is...

Unfortunately, I have never experienced this.:mad:
