    Notebook Computers for Trading

    i use a $500 sony vaio 550 mhz with 128 mb ram. works like a charm (i run esignal, ib's tws, and ninjatrader). imho, the most you will ever need is a dell inspiron for $700. more than you will ever need. i would make sure it has a pcmcia slot (or 2 if you are going to use wireless or...

    POLL: What is the World's Most Evil Religion?

    sure, you can argue that all religion is SUPPOSED to be peaceful and loving, but almost every religion is one-minded. it has to be one way or else. anything that humans will fight to the death over is evil in my book. so, pretty much every religion is evil. you don't see monkeys...

    if you are talking about a day where the 5min starts a new trend sometime in the morning then yes, you are probably right. but most days are started from a trend the day before. try taking a look at the trend into the beginning of the session and find a good entry point into that existing...

    Establishing a trend

    well, if you are serious about using multiple timeframes, check out the daily chart with the 5,20,40 on it. that 1130 bounce was right off of the 20 sma on the daily (and a floor pivot, and yesterday's low!). must be aware of these things -- they are a dead giveaway most of the time. and...

    Establishing a trend

    i was suggesting using a method with the 20 sma as your trigger. forget about the 12pm low. the 1:30 low, which breaks the 20 sma is your trigger. there are two ways to reverse position now. wait until a retest of the high that gave way to the break of that 20 sma, with a stop on other side...

    Establishing a trend

    true, a better risk/reward entry would be to reverse after price crosses the 20sma and then reverses back over to test the last high. then you could treat the breakout the other way as a confirmation.

    Whipsaws and Screens...

    its sounds like you are making a newbie mistake of trying to find the biggest moving stock and not realizing that with this movement comes more risk. you aren't going to find magic stocks out there that provide you with better risk/reward trading. it just doesn't work that way. sorry...
