Look at MACD (13, 27, 9, C) on a chart with (10000V bars ). What you note is if you faded the P/V spike associated with the crossover you also bounced off the high of RTH. Nice Huh? Nice juke lower into 12:30. What does this have to do with trendlines nothing except when we broke to the...

Stock Index Futures Sorry for the unknown acronym.

For instance oil has been inversely correlated to SIF for quite awhile now. If NASDAQ and OEX are outpacing the S & P 500 then returns for the year typically double. If interest rates are rising then equity returns are muted or negative. "Don't fight the fed." Any other correlations...

Can anyone recommend a good reference book or source for intermarket analysis. I am interested more in equities and their derivatives than currency and agricultural products. The intermarket research that I'm interested in can and would preferably reference these other products to equities...

I use DSL to trade. It is definitely not fool proof. It is sluggish at times, goes down, etc. My cost for a T1 is too high for a solo trader @ home. I'm thinking about a combined Cable/DSL solution. Anybody here who can critique this solution? Tripack does the router you suggested...

He said he's "hedging" against the slide in value given the current economic environment in the US, hence dollars. All multinationals do this.

Jack, I actually use volume charts, 10000 contract per bar and 200 contract per bar. Jack, I have incorporataed many of your suggestions PROFITABLY. Just for the non-believers. Sheesh. Thanks for your help.

Question? Do traders prefer longer or shorter hemlines? I mean trendlines. If a shorter hemline is preferred, then should a stop and reverse to doggy be employed?

Mt Zianos Can I ask what prompted you to take those trades? I.e. where did you initiate your trade and what was the reason? Why did you put your stops at that level? Just curious.

I'd like to develop my sense of where the stops are and how many contracts lurk. There is the fuel and it's just a matter of positioning within or before the stops are activated. Stops, crowd reaction, more stops, more reaction, pause----profit taking. Trendlines help me with that...

I'm lost?:confused:

Lefty, I understand your points. I'm pretty sure I even know at least one of the "non-random events" you are referencing. BTW I did perform your "detrended analysis" and it does help with entries and exits. Thanks

Sorry not me, I've been trading awhile (7 years) but I only recently discovered ET. I appreciate everybody's willingness here (for the most part) to discuss trading. I started the trendline thread because I use them and as can be seen they are controversial but what in trading isn't...

Jack, In fact I have been using a crude auditory monitor which in fact has been probably my best monitor. I have a volume bar chart set at 100v and when volume hits the sound of the processor humming tells me what's up and when it slows then that is the time to reevaluate i.e. is this a...

Jack, Your left side of the channel thoughts are really, really important. Thanks. I'm working on appreciating this realtime without the use of lines. I've been extracting more dough with less stress. :p

An older trader was at a reunion with his new 25 yo beautiful blonde,and buxom wife. One of his former colleagues replied you're wife is so young and gorgeous you must have told her you 're 48 yo. "No 90."

I have an account with MAN and it's pretty much what Lefty says. Very old school. I think you could do O.K. with Man but not if you're daytrading the account.

The visual was absolutely frightening on that one.
