I think Richard Dennis has proven this to be an incorrect statement. It simply requires the necessary discipline to do what has to be done; the proper amount of money, following rules precisely, etc. Make 'em pretty, Chris

I missed the previous Woodie discussion, but have the impression that it was not pretty. I have known or talked with Woodie, via the web, since he started this round of rooms, (he did it many years in the past). Been 2 yrs and 2 months now - and I have been impressed with his willingness to...

I am just shattered, I can't believe it!! WOW, the disallusionment (is that ok?) and diappointment of it all!! Make 'em pretty, Chris P.S. Greeting Sub Man.

tampa, it does me good to see you once again behind the keyboard. Did you happen to give up the orange juice (the coffee sub)? And it has probably been years since I read through the meat of your journal here, but did you not at some point in the past attempt Woodies cciclub? Make 'em...

Long at 1.1923, with a stop at 1.1846? Am I missing something? I don't think it ever came close to that. You said because your stop was cancelled you didn't stop out? Make 'em pretty, Chris

Just curious - with the 15 min trade and 3 bar stop, is that three 5 minute bars = 1 15 min bar? Same going up 30 min, five 5 min bars? Make 'em pretty, Chris

I continue to be amazed at the quality and content of your contributions. Make 'em pretty, Chris

My homework simply consists of going over the couple of charts I watch and analysizing my trades or trades I thought I should of taken. Then perhaps a bit of going over a different chart with my set up to see how it may have performed. I trade futures. I said 0-1. Make 'em pretty...

The second in not a conclusion of the first. The second is simply a statement that I have come to believe. I use a couple of indicators to trade with - they, as we all know, are based on price action. Regardless of what price does the indicator will respond the same way. i.e. a 20 ema...

Unable to automate backtesting I cannot compare the two. I have found manual backtesting to give me the confidence in seeing the setup and the results of the setup. Setup the chart with what is desired and scroll back a few months and then scroll forward one bar at a time (day, 5 min, 89...

Is it at this point that a guy can point out your post in Awash's Journal???? Make 'em pretty, Chris

The bonds can move 24 ticks (24/32) where the 10 may only move 30 ticks (15/32) and the 5 yr may only move 18 ticks (9/32). There is a larger money range in the ZB. How does one really know what is a day or longer term trade? That being said - Bonds I get the feeling that more are day (just...

1. ZN, the 10 yr notes has 2 to 3x the volume of the 30yr. And the ZF, 5yr notes has almost double the 30yr. 2. ZB (30), ZN(10), ZF (5) are all electronic - US, TY, and FV are the pit versions. 3. IB or any direct access broker will work - I use IB, only electronic markets are traded on...

I like 5 ticks in the bonds and 10 ticks in the notes - 4 for me seems to get taken alot, perhaps it is that round # thing. Make 'em pretty, Chris

ACTIVE hours are the same as the pit. I tried something on the es a bit and it worked ok, but bonds are where I have always been and I prefer them. No that method of scalping does not transfer well to the notes or bonds. Make 'em pretty, Chris P.S. charting is sierra with IB.

Sorry to but in here with this FastTrader, but...... porgie, What is it that you are trying to achieve? If you are so much better with your setup then please start your own journal and let us just see how great you are. I personally find your persistant posting of better ways to be an...

Most folks are using the trading pit times, 7:20 to 14:00 central time, to calculate the pivots and some are using the pit data, and still trade the electronic. Make 'em pretty, Chris
