    Trading off of the FIRST FIVE MINUTE BAR?!?! Newbie Trader Question

    Trading in the first 5mins is like trying to grab an alligator by the tail and just getting filled with my broker would not always be easy with requotes. But regarding gaps for US stocks in S&P500 a little study once showed (no explanation from me so DYOR as to validity or usefulness):

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    Aesop's Fables Translated by George Fyler Townsend The Eagle and the Arrow AN EAGLE sat on a lofty rock, watching the movements of a Hare whom he sought to make his prey. An archer, who saw the Eagle from a place of concealment, took an accurate aim and wounded him mortally. The Eagle...

    how to find liquid stocks?

    As far as I'm aware TC2000 can only use last price and volume, not spread or seperate bid or ask. The filters I use are: average daily volume >1million for S&P500 and >2million for all other US stocks. Price between 20$ and 100$. Average daily range >50c for daytrading. Automate the...

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    For a consistently losing trader, reversing the buy/sell orders should in principle produce a consistent winner. I recall both you and NY saying something along those lines. Trouble is it won't work if the trader is still monitoring the position and acting according to the way they think. For a...

    My previous post on here applies, but to reiterate it seems to me that you are chasing your tail. As Worf says 'the true test of a warrior is not without, it is within' Now imagine you are Worf confronting JH, see (from 11:40 onwards): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hplBdum1Nyo

    Had a quick look through this thread and it seems to me you are looking for a complex solution to the problem of how to trade. In reality trading is very simple and success or failure is down to you as an individual and not the tools you are using. In fact using unnecessary tools will only...

    This is a sad thread indeed :( The OP with an unfortunate handle, searching for a way forward. FWIW I admire your tenacity, but to enter the quagmire of the one obsessed with self imortance is a mistake. There are very few here who offer sound advice. There is just one that I see that can...

    Should I go to college before becoming a trader?

    JH, in my first post on this site which you quoted, I was of course criticising those people who make a career of posting negative comments without thinking deeply about what it is they are criticising. By quoting my original post you seem to be implying that I am behaving in the same way, that...

    My own indicator

    You are obvously a lazy so and so. Just plot the indicators yourself using excel or whatever plotting tool you have. You could do it using EOD data from yahoo and show us all how your indicators perform (or not), alternatively using 5min data extracted from whatever charting tool you use. Its...

    OMX confirmed breakout

    Stocks4life, do you manage to make any profit following your own predictions? And BTW I note you deleted one of your threads in which I posted some better stocks to trade, can't remember what the stock was that you were posting about but I'm curious why you deleted the thread? Bit sensitive...

    My own indicator

    The maths in the pdf is nonsense, the parameter t doesn't seem to depend on parameter i. In that case the summations will simplify to be simple functions of parameter n, and F(t) and f(t) have no meaning in the context of your descriptions. So I'm curious how you managed to generate the plots...

    Should I go to college before becoming a trader?

    JH, I'll tell you straight what I think of you. You're full of your own bullshit, too full of it to realise how stupid you are, devoid of rationallity, a cretin that devalues and dumbs down this site, that makes common sense seem like an offense. You bore me, you are an irrelevance, you are a...
