I know about the videos, I like them. I'm correct about the OMNI. It's a proprietary indicator. I'm correct about Oscar's pivots. He doesn't say how he reaches his specific pivots. The rest is my opinion, but its common sense. In order to learn, you have to understand the processes...

Oscar frequently makes good calls (he made one today) Oscar also makes bad calls It doesn't matter. He isn't teaching people the process he goes through to make his particular calls. The OMNI is a proprietary indicator. As such, it is useless to students. It teaches nothing about the...

This has not happened to me yet, but it is a real fear that I have, since I don't have a purely mechanical system. I am always a little nervous before the market opens about precisely this.

Windows Vista, yes or no... HELL NO!! Vista is slower than XP by far. You'll regret it, especially if you're a scalper. and I'm not talking boot times (although it is a slower boot as well). Just moving the mouse around on the screen and clicking on items is slower.

well...

Hi you all, just wanted to chime in on how I determine the swings in Ensign Windows. I'll post a screenshot of the study when I get home: By the way, Stealth Trader already posted about this I think. I remember he posted something... Study - Pesavamento Patterns, turn off all the...

First, you will probably want to decide how much money you want to make on how many trades per day, week, or month, and how much you want to risk to make that money. This goes into how much money you require to live on. If you are treating this as a proper business, you will want to make a...

Hi, just wanted to say that in my opinion, AHG Higher Highs and Higher Lows are not as sensitive to the size of the bar to me, as long as the length of the bars are approximate... What's a few contracts here or there? :) But I'm also using Ensign, so I don't really have a good perspective...

People trade for only two reasons that I can think of: 1 - to make money. 2 - to prove a point. I used to trade to make money, and to prove a point, but now, my style doesn't allow me to prove points. So now I only trade to make money (unless, as happens occasionally, I fall back into that...

University of Alaska Anchorage, or University of Alaska Fairbanks? Either way, they are both crap schools, so you'd be better off going for a master's in the lower 48... :cool:

Yes, people make money daytrading. As an aside, there is some required information missing from your post that leads me to believe it isn't a very serious post: I will be trading [blank] instrument, using this type of chart. Why? Because my trading method, basically [blank], needs it...

The way I see it, if the trend changes, I will be stopped out. No ifs, ands or buts. If I am in a trade already, I will be stopped out of it. If I just initiated a trade, my stop will be hit on that. Then, I wait for confirmation in the form of another HH and HL (or vice versa), and enter...

I risk 1 point to gain 1 or more points on the ES, depending on price action, although if price action dictates, I exit with less than 1 point.

Wouldn't you say that, generally speaking (of course there are exceptions), the higher the timeframe, the larger the stop needed, the bigger the account needed, the more risk you incur on any single trade? Also, wouldn't you also say that if you have a trading method that gives you a...

the part where the world map is superimposed on a world map is pretty damned special. I guess I'll stick with MOMA's big blowup picture of the intel 486.

Hypo, I believe that is the answer to all these threads on whether the Jack Hershey method is quantifiable or not. A true sceptic meets Spydertrader, sits down with him, watches him trade, asks him questions, perhaps buys him a cup of coffee for his extreme generosity (if the offer is still on...

A possibility to overcome this subjectivity is to use constant volume bars, which leaves one looking at price action (or any price action indicator one prefers) since volume action would then be built-in to each bar...

Anek, thanks again for the journal. The ross hook, eh? Well, interlibrary loan, here I come: ISBN-10: 9768108274 Trading the Ross Hook, by Joe Ross Anyhoo, after the antics at cbot today, I think I'm gonna head on over to the ES. I pulled up a 5000 constant volume bar chart and it...
