YM looks like its putting in a double bottom Nevermind!! :p

osho, I don't think so because I believe AHG is trend following in nature, and being high probability means going with the trend, and not trading against the trend. Trading against the trend is also called picking up nickels in front of freight trains (going short in an uptrend), and catching...

Hiya Anek, I think there may be a W at the top of the YM right now (well, 5 minutes ago)... Anyhoo, I don't know if this is the answer, it's prolly a bit simplistic, but I'll take a stab: the two equal points of the W or the M represent a point of support or resistance. It becomes a high...

After that first updraft, all of a sudden it's turned pretty messy on the NQ...

NQ begins the day with a triangle...

Agreed. This journal is the reason I haven't blown out, Anek. Triangle on the NQ just now...

I dunno, I wouldn't get sick over making a decent trade that made a few... Coulda woulda shoulda. If you exited because you saw something that made you exit, what'sa problem? If you exited, because you got excited that you had made a couple bucks and it doesn't happen often, then you...

I'm pretty sure number 3, "flags," are actually AHG basic (my own terminology), so I think HHs and HLs are included... I could be wrong... AHG advanced is reversals, double tops and bottoms (and failed ones), and triangles...

Zeroline Trader looks pretty nice. I won't rank the front-ends. Others with more experience can do that much better. My message to Lebon would be - learn to use TWS first, so if your front-end dies while you are in a trade, you can manage your position, then get a front-end, which makes...

Hi Piscuy, That's a great great question. Here's what I think: a great trade for me is - I see a higher low and a higher high on the chart, and then price goes back down and makes a higher low, and the bar closes, and price reverses, and I check buffy's bline (stochastics 5,3,3 over a...

Hi Suresh, The journal advocates using Volume based bars, so that you can use price based studies and indicators, and so, volume will always be a component of any chart study you try. It makes things that much easier for those of us who cannot concentrate on 5 things at once, and it means...

Boot Camp doesn't slow down a mac system or run slower than pcs since it's not emulation software. It's basically a separate partition, and a dual boot machine. You either boot into the mac os, or into windows. That means the macbook pro I use with the ATI x1900 with 256mb of vram runs 3d...

Welp, if you qualify as a student (or faculty or staff for that matter) you can pick up Office Ultimate 2007 for $60 now. http://www.theultimatesteal.com Not a bad deal.

Scaling out works if you are trading more than 1 contract. It doesn't if you only trade 1, though, and isn't it detrimental to the bottom line, as you say, since scaling in, then all out once price reaches the stop maximizes the trade? I think some peeps have mentioned using the end of last...

Nice double top on the ES just now, 2 points below, but it seems to be pretty muddy down here now at 92.5... I'M STAYING OUT FOR ONCE! :p

bump

Basically I had no discipline this morning, none. I forgot the rules and just averaged down like an idiot (kinda wish I could kick myself in the balls, it's what I need). Anyway, Anek please if you would, check your private messages.

Yah, me too. First losing day in a long while, but it was a doozy. Welp, we'll see what tomorrow brings. And boy do I need to ingraine into my memory when to stay on the sidelines.

The point is that no matter what you think of Oscar's calls, his calls are just calls. Oscar does not actually explain how his system works. He doesn't give any rationale for what he does. So, he's not actually teaching people how to trade a specific system. He just has people following his...
