I'm going to start this journal as a sort of offspring to "Something Very Simplistic" (SVS). The general goals are the same - something simple, unsubjective, and profitable. I think this qualifies as simple as far as executing the plan, but it may not be simple in terms of getting the...

Hey! :D I'm also following "Son of Something Very Simplistic" at the same time so I have a bit of an excuse. :)

I adjusted the workbook for the proper entry (noted accordingly). Are we all in general agreement abouthe 10:59 and 11:54 trades now?

Wow. Mine says 826.50 too - lol - have no idea what I was looking at to see 827.50 - guess I should increase the font size. :(

I have it as a double-whammy - L 805.50 (shoulda been 805.75 though, but same end results) and NQ too, L 827.50. Stop wishing us luck! :D

The only way there could be a real tie is if they were both equal to the same value. I have my charting software set up to color my price bars based on the relationship of the stochastics lines - so I'm not even looking at the actual stochastics themselves. That resolves any issue in trying to...

Lol. Well, instead of changing this system - or even making adjustments (especially so soon), I'd rather just work on something separate. I figure there is room for more than one "method" - even if they are similar. Be on the lookout for "Son of Something Very Simplistic" where the most...

Evidently. If you are trying to trade this system you'd have 11 trades, not just 3 - even if you were not going to open a new position if the previous hadn't closed out you'd still have at least 3 more trades after the ones your showed.

What are you saying? Why are you not able to duplicate any of the trades?

I didn't really "know" for sure - but many of the trades today are trades I wouldn't have normally taken in that direction had I not been following this system. That said, I've thought that about other trades with this system in the past - and those usually turn out ok.

I don't think it's quiet because it was a losing day - at least not for me. It just is what it is. The only parallel to be drawn between today and the other losing day is that they ended up being losing days. :)

Not a good day at all. Many of the losing trades were "obviously" being entered in the wrong direction - but my indicator had just not reversed quite yet. One of the main points of this is to have a purely mechanical system - so I guess days like today are just the price for having that. I'm...

tampa - How are we supposed to know when to humiliate you when you don't do what you say you are going to do - when you say that whatever you decide to do it just the way it is? :)

Today isn't a very good day for such a test really - there are all sorts of serious internet backbone delays that have been going on since this morning. So, depending on the route(s) taken to get from your quote vendor to your PC, you might see all sorts of issues that would not normally be there.

InandLong - I'm using Ensign for my charting with an Esignal feed. I'm looking at a friends 2 minute from Qcharts - and while it is very similar , it is not exact. I suspect the the calculations are not exactly the same. For example, my stochastics indicator allows for a "simple", "smoothed"...

On my 2 minute (I assume you are talking about NQ) it was just barely a short - but like 1.5 points on the stochastics <G>.

For ES: +2.00 points 13 trades, 8 winners, 5 losers For NQ: +24.00 points 12 trades, 10 winners, 2 losers I wasn't around to take the last trade of the day. I'm having some connectivity problems today - and am not going to trade - however, I'm going to note the trades and...

You don't want me to point out that same question has been asked at least 3 other times in this thread, do you? :D
