    Let me beat the dead horse again. While trading use price only. It is OK to use indicators during a planning false. To find S/R levels. But then only trade price and how it behaves around the planed areas. If you go long and the price proves you wrong you should go short. If that also is...

    5 reasons why I am moving to Norway to pursue my trading career.

    How is the weather like? I am into south California type weather. My guess is that it is nothing like that. I spent some time in Northwest like Portland and Seattle. The winter was way too long.

    Anybody else short US 30 Bond

    I have big problem joying in a move. I am afraid to be the laggard. I am OK if I get in early but when the move is strong I can't jump in. Also I have problem reversing. If my trade fails I know that the move will be good against it, but I can't jump in. I am afraid not to get chopped. The...

    ZN but the whole thing is no good today for me. I was too late for the good move. Now I am just steaming. West coast time sucks. You have to be up by 4:30 AM.

    Are you sure you care about the withdraw format? You should be more concerned about the deposit format.

    Anybody else short US 30 Bond

    I am missing the whole damn move. Too fast for me. The long trend down the short trend up. I am lost. If it is a short covering, who are the shorts? I do not see tons of volume on the lower levels to suggest that there are to many in the hole. There must be some initiative buying here. I...

    XYZ. I meant if "some" like ABC or XYZ indicator. How is the information from that (XYZ) indicator going to help you with the "real" problem of trading. "key" areas. We are all looking for them. I do not want to steal this tread. I will admit I am bias against using volume on the time...

    Few dangers: 1. If your stop/reward sizes are too small you will be trading noise. Meaning you will be gambling. 2. If your stop/reward sizes are too big you will be hopping. 3. The sizes (volatility) changes. So you are back where you started. I would always ask myself. How is XYZ...

    The important part is the risk reward win% rate. If you spend to much time on the divergence you will loose track of the above. What if the risk is 2 points. What if you need 10 points based on your win%. Will you take the trade and HOPE that the 10 points target gets hit? How the Delta...

    Your chart shows an obvious down trend. The point you decided to short at is a small pull back and a price break to the down side again. A good point to short. Delta or no Delta. The important part is that you can have a stop just above the top of the pull back and if your reasoning is good for...

    Do you think that a market order to sell can be executed at the ASK? If yes do you think that this is very unusual and can be ignored as small error in the delta calculations? Another thing that bothers me is that in less liquid markets the spread is bigger than one tick. Any trades executed...
