Steve has a good explanation in his post above. Here is a magnified look at 1 signal from today (it was kinda choppy). Hopefully looking at just 1 signal will clear things up.

I hope those of you who are trying this out were able to see the signals generated today and how the entry usually gives you a shot at making some money.

No, IB doesn't have tick charts.

ie: once up 6 ticks or 1.5 points, I generally move that stop up to break-even or a couple of ticks beyond the last swing high or low. When you're in these trades, you should start to see some movement coming in after a few bars. If not, I will often bail with a few ticks up or down. By doing...

Pretty nice day today, using this strategy in its simplest form. There was a little chop on a few trades, but they could have easily been scratched. The 12:28pm trade was a "no anxiety" trade and you might still have some runners on from 878.25. For those looking for 100% winners, please...

I wanted to help some people who were struggling, get a start with a set of simple rules that work for me. I use the 9ema and 34 to give me a little guidance as to trend and acceleration. You'll find ways to use them if you want. Don't try to test this out. As with all testing of...

Good point. I've only been trading since 1982. I'll let you know if I'm successful in the longer run.

If you have a question, please post it, as you probably aren't the only person who is thinking about it and it will save me from the PM route. 1) How many signals per day on average? Should get anywhere from 3-10. I stay out on FOMC days after 11am est. 2) Does it work on other...

Cause I'm done trading (FMOC today) and I am bored: 1) I will give you a profitable ES trading strategy 2) I learned it from LBR, but adopted it for me and the current markets 3) Any indicator that you need is available for free from any chart vendor 4) If you try this for the next 4 weeks...

ok here. maybe log out and back in?

I had some problems with my first trades of the day, the past two days, too (I needed to log out and log back in to display my fills). A live chat person, informed me that I needed to log off and back in each morning. If I leave TWS on through the night, this problem can occur. I will...

Chat finally replied...She said to log-out at night and log back in the next morning.

I'm not getting notification of my fills, yet when I try to cancel the "C" goes to "Pink". I assume I'm filled. Then I need to shut TWS down and log back in for the transaction to be shown in the proper "filled" status. Anyone else having this problem? Oh....been trying to connect to...

Yea, I did catch that. It is exciting to think about, in the near future, when they increase the specs.

Here's a couple: Not restricted by cord length anymore. 1) While I'm working out in a separate room from my trading room...I can connect my PC to my TV in the work out room. 2) I can watch some Netflix movies, Hulu, etc... instantly, without the hassle of the S cord, although I will...

I can think of many ways that I will use it...

This looks awesome. Wireless link from PC to monitors or TV. http://is.gd/oTe8

Do you guys understand how Trin is calculated? If so, please look at C and its volume. You will then understand why Trin is not going to be as useful an indicator as in previous years. This has been the case for a few months now.

Do you realize how few people watch cnbc or fox news? "About 6,300 people on average were watching Fox Business on any given weekday during its first two months, according to early estimates compiled by Nielsen. By contrast, CNBC attracted about 283,000 viewers during that period. The ratings...
