Yes I am convinved fills are going to be horrible in the long run.... especially when the market is volatile... I bet you if ZOrak was actually trading his system with real $.. his results would be much different than his paper trading.. therefore... his paper trading is not a true...

How come we didnt hear about him before? Any why isnt he the front page of all the newspapers... $800 to $350mil... is incredible.. --MIKE

Unreal.

I want to count how many bars in a chart are wide ranging bars.... meaning the high> yesterdays high and the low < yesterdays low.. I have esignal and metastock... do any of these programs have this feature? If not... what program will do this? --MIKE

Let me phrase it better... " profitable characteristics " of randomness. In my book it is the same thing. These characterisitcs include, basing, triangles, flags, simple pullbacks alongside the major trend. These are apparent in random charts and stock charts.... So here is the...

Been trading successfully for many years... I got a lot of email from sincere ET traders that wanted me to post some charts... so they can learn from them.... When I swing trade.. I am right usually about the same as I am wrong.. but my profits are usually 2.5x my loss. Further... some of...

Zorak, There is nothing you can do to avoid the slippage for these low volume stocks... Honestly.. I would look for a completely different strategy.. You will be making so many trades.. and you trades will be highly dependent on low commisions and more importantly the execution price...

Chasinfla, That website really opened my eyes to some interesting things. After playing with it many times and looking at various distributions... Quite often I saw beautifull uptrends and downtrends and even consolidations... Here are a few observations.... As line went in uptrend the...
