I've answered WGTrader's question elsewhere, but in case anyone else would be curious, these bars are called Flutes, available within Ensign software. Basically, just a graphical presentation of intra-bar volume activity.

Today's ES chart ...

The entry on the first trade of the day pretty much nailed the first Pt. 3 of the dominant down channel, so I was pleased w/ that. But I struggled with the Gaussian reads for most of the day :confused: Especially this a.m. , it seemed the non-dom traverses would occur on greater volume than...

Today's ES chart ...

Nothing much to comment on that hasn't already been said - still making mistakes, and just trying to find my way through the transition. For the end of this week, my thought is TGIF ... :)

Another small loss day - I feel like I'm getting stuck in a rut. But the gang is working hard, and the ideas and discussions are going full bore - I'm 'blaming' this week on option expiry (joking). BTW, apparently had a power blip or something while out this evening, so the results page is in a...

Slow getting results up today - had to wait on the last trade of the day, which, by the way, goes out to nkhoi - from the trader 'within' (sorry, semi-private joke). Now, if folks could only appreciate the scorn and ridicule awaiting me tomorrow a.m. in the war room. All I can say is that this...

Chart from today ...

Well - ya gonna have to bear with me for awhile now - I've stumbled off the trail, but I'm a roundin' up some good dogs to help me with the scent. Thought maybe I could at least end the day in positive territory, but got snookered on the last trade. Stay tuned - I swear I'll find the other side...

Very nice trading, WG! You say these are typical, consistent results - I am impressed! Congrats ...

Well, I have apparently rounded the corner and am now heading in another direction - unfortunately, the wrong direction - heheh. So, if I am to adhere to the given tenets of the methodology, it's time to begin the re-wiring process. Such is the value of simtrading - a beginner's testing ground...

CFerret - I can help ya with some of this - go to pg. 264 and locate PrOcrast's post where he provides links to Vol. 1 (January) and Vol. 2 (February). Perhaps I missed it, but I do not recall seeing a recap for the month of March yet.

Hmm - I believe I've just told myself on how I will proceed. Hahaha ... nothing like airing one's dirty laundry :D

Ezzy - this is a very interesting topic to me, and I'd love to discuss it at more length when time permits. I think it boils down to how a trader reacts to the situation where he has just experienced a losing trade, but still has the signal to be back in the mkt for the same directional trade...

Ezzy - the above comments raise an issue that has caused some confusion personally. Considering this type of action the past couple days (slow grinding trend) , there were several examples of new highs in price on lower volume. Whenever I push the chair back to see the forest, then I can easily...

Ezzy - If I may, I'll just make a couple general comments, and leave the slice and dice for the more astute technicians. The first thing I noticed on your chart was the absence of the 20 sma - perhaps you removed it for clarity in your example. But it once again pretty much contained price...

It is already apparent my work is now cut out for me, to see if I can remain profitable after discarding everything that is most familiar to me :) Should get interesting - we'll see where it all leads. As long as each week remains positive, hopefully progress will continue. Have a nice weekend ...

I meant to respond yesterday on your suggestion, thinking it could be very helpful to discuss this stuff realtime. Is there a charge for Paltalk? Thanks ...

Thanks for all the comments, fellas! And the consensus is: no add-ons :) So I will try to respect this approach, and just hang tough w/ singles. As iterated earlier, now w/ a bit more emphasis - this could become real ugly, real quick! But it's sure to serve as a good wake-up call, and...

Is this what you hi-fallutin' system programmers call a "loop"? Emil - may I say you win hands doiwn on the gut-buster counts :D :D And just one more thing, I'm gettin tired of wipin the spittums off the monitor!
