thanks for the 'dawg'. cool.

i think ges makes an excellent point. if you get a stoch cross during the bar and enter a buy, but it closes below the 75/80...and the mkt proceeds to go down...in REALITY you have a losing trade, BUT in the BACK TEST version it doesn't even show up as a trade. so we have unfortunately...

what does the software do with the following: during the bar the fast stoch goes above 80, but closes below 80....would it exit you at the close or once in the trade your 2pt stop kicks in? thanks in advance. dawg

wow. great job, gives you a lot to think about. thanks for all your work. dawg

your comments accurately convey what i was 'feeling' during the trades, but somewhat hesitant to act upon....now i have a set of pictures i can think of when faced with a similar situation. while today was not a profitible $ wise, it was definitlely an addition to my knowledge that can be drawn...

1. 10:45 s(88.00, 85.39) macd hist +0.567 i entered during this bar @ 865.00 when the mkt broke the HOD. 11:30 had a 5m macd xo, but was still within my channel, but at 11:45 another xo and breaks channel. exit 867.25 long @ 865.00 sell @ 867.25 day: +2.25 9 days: +21.00 2. 12:05...

1. short rocket mkt opens with a gap down and stochs and macd are giving short signals...wait 15 minutes, amrk the low and short on the break. at 10:10 there is a 5m macd xo, but i was looking for a new pt 3 so i gave it some room. Up volume started to increase and i exited at 860.25 during...

the volume kept me out 1:35 s(0.00, 7.14) and the volume was 2,031 (which is just pathetic) and with the choppiness of the day so far i wanted more volume. volume picked up at 1:45 to 6,609 (still not great) but at that point i did not want to chase. hope that helps.

yes. after you have been trading rockets for a while it was suggested that instead of just exiting your position when a rocket ends (or fails) you could reverse into the opposite direction(double your contracts on the exit)...while there are potentially different points to reverse/exit a rocket...

1. vol bo, stoch 50% bo, macd bo from 0. 10:25 macd xo w/ increasing volume stoch broke below 50% and macd broke away from 0. short @ 870.25 cover @ 870.25 0.00 day: 0.00 7 days: +22.00 had my trend channel drawn, but mkt had very poor follow thru and volume, but as long as it...

easiest way to explain is an example look at a 5m ES chart of 3-25: 10:50 stoch(81.82, 75.13) macd hist: 0.71 volume 13,352 high of bar: 869.50 This is a clear rocket signal 1. I wait for the bar to close for clarity of signals. This keeps me from getting a signal during the bar and...

The whole method is basically trying to identify a trend and sticking with it as long as possible and avoiding the shakeout, certainly nothing revolutionary, but for some reason this particular way has clicked with me SO FAR (fingers crossed). There are probably a dozen(or more) ways to get into...

just figured might be easier for jack and others to comment instead of searching just for my thread.

1. failed rocket--->macd xo--->rocket 10:15 s(14.81, 22.22) but NOT a good macd hist reading of only -0.34 so i was in short alert mode and then the following happened...10:20 had an increasing volume reversal bar, the stoch moved out of the short zone(failed rocket) and then at 10:35 we had...
