A live (sim) trade from earlier today. OUT 4221.75 higher low DL break around 20. Look at the force thru the "line." Not a spectacular trade but just trying to get into the flow of it all. There is also "better" entries. Work in progress. I played a game today attempting to detect turning...

Last one. Have some formulating and replay to do.

Remember this is the building/thinking phase. Some context and the line chart 1/3/14.

ok ok and the 1 min. I stopped my previous journal bc honestly it's almost double work. Call me old fashioned I like pen and paper lol. P.S. I probably won't proofread

Let's see how many people click on this thread. Going through some testing a "faster" interval alongside my 1min chart. I am on a quest to add more Wyckoffian logic to my trading as well as enter at a "better" price. The attempt is to go with the flow and understand the behavior of those...

Aside from techniques/planning/strategy remember everything starts from within. If you can't see or visualize yourself as a successful trader you more than likely won't get there regardless of any plan. As well if you are all wrapped up in failure vs conquering those failures/mistakes/doing the...

I tested it mechanically over 1 year without regard to context and trading through chop. My win loss was 46% to 54% and p:l 2.32 to 1 per trade. This again was without the use of context and trading mechanically thru chop. My entry was as written by the rule and my exit a 1 point line break.

Can you post your tested results of the SLA method? Both back and forward tested for an entire year. If not then how can you make that claim?

Well by then essentially you'd be trading off a higher low toward a lower high. Could have been choppy. I wasn't at my desk at the time of that proposed long so I can't say what I would have done with that in Rt.

here you go

Take a look at 68ish. I see that as a retest of the swing high of the DB. Pretty much TDTDB.

Initially sim wasn't so easy for me as I knew my results would push me to or prevent me from going live. So even in sim there was a psychological battle to do well so I can go live (exiting early/not taking trades I should because I won the last one). So it was ok I made some money (in sim) if...

I agree. Was asking more from an observational/discussion standpoint. Of course anything can happen.

Since we are asking questions how often does history repeat itself? I haven't looked fully into this but last December we were generally at a similar location and so far have had somewhat similar results this year. The first week of December last year we had a dl break followed by a bit of a...

In a range there's no time to wait for a RET. We wait for the first RET once we leave the range. To me we tried up and down both waves being equidistant meaning the trend is in doubt. Leaving this range could be the beginning of a trend. Waiting for the RET after the break will let us know. A...

Welcome back

I concur

Yes I'll take a look at that. I remember him going through a scratch exercise. Thanks.

I'd be interested in this exercise. If you wouldn't mind sharing?

"I don't think there is any way to know that price was about to break out higher right there." Is there ever really a way to fully know? The rejection of both ends of the overnight consolidation, yesterdays high, and I saw price as trending up from yesterdays low so this lead me to believe we...
