When do I decide I was wrong? Basically, when I see that I am on the wrong side of the market. That is, when my premise has been proven to be wrong. In the case of TRs that is when the market trades in such a way against my position of fading the tops or bottoms and doing so in a strong enough...

Here are some trades I took today. All profitable. Total points earned was 10 points. I was not able to watch the market until close to 1:00 p.m. Chicago time as I had other things to do. Around 1:19 I made my first trade. First, let's look at the context (first chart). We can see the open. It...

I have not taken any trades today 9-16. Just now at 12:41 central time just looking at the chart. Busy doing other things. Maybe I can get in a trade or two. Will see.

Here are some things to consider on that last entry of 6 contracts on 9-13-2024 as to why I am willing to double up and average down. I am showing volume at the bottom. And volume by price overlay. I am not opposed in anyway to using volume. MY handle on ET expresses that "volpri" aka as...

What is it that you know that allows you to do so - and when do you ultimately decide you are wrong? It depends on the larger context as to where I am willing to average down and especially do double up and average down. Look at this case. Not only did I average down but I doubled up on my...

Even though I lost the original recording of the chart in my post #2012 and the complete video of my post (same trades) so only posted a portion of the orginal that did save in my post #2014 I was able to recreate the video and actually mark up the chart and record again at a higher speed (even...

Thanks!

Explain the difference in public and unlisted to me?

Thanks! It is less than 4 minutes as somehow in the midst of recording it stopping...and starting back..etc trying to keep it shorter I somehow failed to record all my trades. Maybe next trading session I will get this down right.

I think I got it changed now to unlisted. Good grief it is taking me bit to learn this stuff.

I thought I had it unlisted. You mean you can't see the short video above? Check and see and let me know if you can see it.

Guys it may take me a while but I will eventually get this recording thing down. Not sure that it is a valid excuse, but I will soon be 70 and it takes me longer to learn new things. They say you get wiser as you get older, but I had rather be younger and a little dumber. I just cannot do the...

I mean't record LOL not video tape ROFLMAO. I am learning how to record my screen and I keep making mistakes. I got 3 minutes or so recorded (thinking I had recorded all the thing) and I might add with live recorded comments as things evolved. I was stopping the mic and video and then turning...

Some of our visitors just left others are still on the front porch but I slipped away to type a brief explanation up. I took two trades over a period of about 1.5 hours (look at the time scale on the screen shot.) The first trade was a long entry at the bottom of an established TR on a 5m...

I have visitors just got here a few moments ago so I cannot trade anymore today nor have the time right now explain these trades. But I took these two averaged down trades. Profit was pretty good. I am posting the snapshot and will explain later after the visitors leave. I thought I had...

You sure that is not a beetle bug from the 60's?

I am still learning how to video tape trading..make annotations on the chart...pause and start again...save it...publish it on you tube...etc. I am not a spring chicken so it takes me awhile to learn these things and not make mistakes in the process. Plus I am a diabetic and there are days my...

No, I'm not interested. You and Dest can bet between yourselves. I am just showing how I like to scalp. If you don't like it there are plenty of other threads you can look at. A few thousand threads on ET.

Here are some scalps taken today. On the video I showed capturing 19.5 points for this sessions trades. That was $975.00 not $1000.00. The trades took place in about 1.5 hours time span. It is not necessary to trade large positions to make money scalping. The instrument one uses and the...
