Not a bad day, eh?

Today, my hold button was the snooze button on my alarm... Every 10 minutes I woke up for a brief moment to decide on reverse or hold, and if hold just slapped the snooze button again. So I was racking up points in my sleep :D That is living the dream.

Wheeeeeee :D

Personally, I'd acknowledge that my entry was most likely close to a PT2, and give the market some space to find its PT3. Imagine where the up channel would be if it had a sustainable angle. If it goes much below that or if you have increasing red vol, you know to reverse. We had neither of...

My hold button is working rather well today too :cool: :cool:

+5, right you are.

I rock at hindsight trading. Attached is today's chart with thought process debrief for each trade. Please critique! It would be awesome if more people did this type of thing so we could compare notes. NOTE: this is forest reversal-only trading, while keeping a close eye on the trees...

Friday's chart, cleaned up, with double-gaussians. A great chart to review if you are trying to understand channel/gaussian relationships and multiple fractals at work.

Excellent post.

This is an extremely true statement. Being someone that is used to doing fifteen things at once, this has been the hardest thing of all to learn. Things that seem to work: watching a movie on monitor #2, listening to zen-inducing music, brewing lots of chinese tea, lighting candles, and...

Haha, another alias T280? Is that you? I thought you self destructed over a week ago? Have fun, I'll be back in a few days to check on you.

Every couple days I come back to this thread and get a nice chuckle... I don't give a damn about 3x the range, P1 doesn't give a damn, Harold doesn't give a damn... do you see a trend here? Maybe railing on "3x the daily range" is kind of a retarded, pointless argument? Either Jack can...

Your FTT question seems flawed to me. 11:05 and 12:55 on my chart do look like FTTs. They attempted to traverse and failed. Sometimes there will be multiple attempts at the LTL. How will you know that it is the final attempt? You won't. Sometimes it is much more obvious thanks to clues...

Sorry, I don't have the link handy-- but I included it in the February compilation, which can be downloaded here: download

IMO the best combo is to take a log sheet like that (however detailed or not detailed you care to) and also record the day with camtasia. Then you can compare your notes with real-time action to better analyze the right/wrong processes in your thinking.

Sure. My original post: The first point I was trying to make with this chart was that gaussians aren't always "perfect" formations. R2B = DOMINANT red, RETRACE black (we are talking about price). For some of these gaussians, this holds true even though you see decreasing height in the...

Here were the "correct" forest trades as I see them in hindsight (green = buy, red = sell). If anyone sees it differently, I'd like to hear how. In RT, I was there for half of the day and netted 12-15 pts if I recall :) Not too shabby.

I originally posted this in the equities journal, but since it has to do with Gaussians I'll post here too. This is GROW. Gaussians might be a bit tricky. If you don't understand what I have drawn, speak up and we'll discuss. <img...
