    Software Used to Trade Jack Hershey Methods

    At present am using a NinjaScript (_psmPrice) to generate channels and what I'm having a problem with is that the channels are being lost when I close out and then re-open some hours later. This does not happen all the time but it is occurring frequently enough to require me to hard copy all...

    Overseas margin

    Got it. Thank you. So then when one looks at the overseas/overnights and observes not infrequently, a volume increase at 3 AM ET, it may well be someone buying ES contracts at something less than $4375 USD/contract. Correct? If we move Stateside, then if one is flat at the end of RFTH...

    Overseas margin

    Sorry ocean5 I'm not getting what you are saying. US RFTH (regular futures trading hours) are from 9:30 AM till 4:15 PM ET. As we all know, during that time one can daytrade futures and pay as little as $400/contract. Are you saying that as far as you know, anytime outside that time...

    Iterative Refinement

    Thank you very much TIKI. That is very thoughtful of you. Sorry for the delay in replying but I was up in the Great White North today seeing family.

    Iterative Refinement

    Hey TIKI, When you generate a daily chart do you use the OHLC from the floor trading hours (9:30 AM to 4:15 PM EST) or do you use the CME OHLC which are for the roughly 24 hour day? I'm not trying to be a schmuck, but the stuff we look at is going to be different, or not?

    As requested earlier MBS, what is your success rate [#correct calls/total calls]? WIth what rigour do you determine this rate? As we both know, even if you were correct only 50% of the time (a coin toss in other words) you could still be profitable, depending on the nature of your setup and...

    Wowee. That's mindless powerful PeeWee Herman kind o' stuff, MBS. So let me see if I follow your train of illogical thought. When the market 'shows its hand' is when you make your 'live' call. So like you're on the 'ES' thread and you say something like, "blah, blah ... 923 or 1015 or...

    Ooops! I forgot to mention the overuse of bold lettering (and underlining too). You mean like a kind of play by play thingy. You're performimg as, to use a word, anticipated. I'm curious, market wizmaven that you are, do you have any stats on the accuracy of your bold, insightful calls on...

    MBS = muy BS = Mandelbrot Set; H.A.R.M. = (the) Heroic Association (of) Real Men. There was a great skit with Belushi and Akyroyd having to do with the latter.

    There is an ebb and flow in many of the discussions on this site, and by implication, this thread, and if you had been following what was being said most recently here, that might have been apparent to you. Aside from demonstrating laughable problems with spelling and syntax, your major...

    So if I'm hearing what you are saying correctly, we'll probably go up for a couple of days and then go down. Tuesday marks the return of the boys from the Hamptons, or so the CW goes. It is also a Taylor 'short sale day', a day on which the high is made first and then a tank follows on, with...

    Couldn't agree with you more chartsy, on all points. Until MBS rolled in the discussion had been pretty well focussed on the merits and accuracy of JH's projection of future market direction.

    You're well known MBS for the daring and accuracy of your calls. Care to share what the basis of the '1015' call was? FTR, the posts you refer to have nothing to do with what you are talking about, but that's beside the point. Of course the possibility exists that what you're mostly...

    I'm glad you qualified your impression bwo. No doubt it did not escape you that even though 9-2 was not the most fun sort of day for most traders, it did mark the bottom of the current run down for the ESU9 contract which as you'll remember started to fall off several days ago. But enough...

    Agreed. Tomorrow did not mirror today. As for the second part of your snippet, the 'turning point thingy', that remains to be seen. 9-2-09 demonstrates what I would call an unpleasant, lateral price movement - hard to infallibly know when one of those will pop up. There are those who can...

    Clearly he is talking about two different things, one which occurred about midday on 8-31-09 [the 10:01 AM 9-1-09 comment] and the other which took place in the AM of 9-2-09 [the 5:09 PM 9-1-09 comment]. The two events are related and whether or not the consequences of their occurence turn out...

    Here is the correct quote and time stamp for JH's "prediction", as you call it. 09-01-09 10:12 AM Recently (yesterday) was a big turning point for the markets. All fractals but the bull/bear fractal came to the end of their runs (legos) about midday. This final long channel that is underway...
