I have never been doing this. Obviously. Thanks for sharing. I mean I have been, but while I'm watching PA, I'm continually watching the bar form to see which direction it heads. It's more advantageous focusing on the close, also the H/L/open, in context to each other, than the middle of a bar...

I understand. Thanks jas. If a pb fails to continue there's a reason...who cares why...but signal no longer valid. -JS

I hear you. But in RT a range isn't established until you take the PB and it fails. Right? Or can one identify this range beforehand?

I've been studying a bit, and also reflecting on people mentioning my "context" is light. I've never thought of that. I always thought, trade your set-up. There's your set-up, trade it. Again---trade it. NO. So wrong. Isn't context everything? I must learn this context. "Trading signals...

Update: Back on SIM Monday 12/15. I'll have three opportunities to trade that week. I'm studying hard these next two evenings and over the weekend. I really have to understand more about the set-up. Where it triggers, it's risk, management, target projection etc... I kind of just choose those...

Where you been? I've been in SIM.

I'm trying to understand the question. Are you wondering whether or not I went broke yet?

I don't know if tradestation can replay tick for tick. Though that would be really helpful. I should look into that. I want to trade S/R and scalp. I'm not sure I'm a momentum trader. I'm still trying to just study one set up. That's all. Momentum isn't it, it makes my heart beat faster. For...

I can tra Sorry for the many questions. Some were "rhetorical" for me so that I'd visit them later. I'll identify those from now on to avoid confusion. question: When you say context was light, do you mean I didn't have enough to go off of it in current PA? Or are you saying I need to learn...

Love reading these successes. Keep it up.

With the encouragement of a friend I want to apologize to all for my indecent humor regarding something that I find so really serious, and important. This humor, learned from a poor example in my life helps to mask pain and disappointment in myself. I accept full responsibility and wanted to...

Hey TD. I didn't jump short. I waited patiently for a pullback entry after a large price drop through a support level. m1 m2, m60, m3000, there all shit if I can't adapt a trader's mindset to trade them. I want that. The mindset. Then I'll trade any time frame anywhere. Until then, the steady...

I'm definitely agreeing with you. I have to be very careful about what is coming out of my mouth. I was talking to someone the other day, and mentioned how I'm paying more and more attention to those things. I've actually caught myself 5 or 6 times in the past week thinking poorly of myself. I...

Yes red/blue in, white out. I can annotate by hand if it helps in future. TS just has a simple setting I can turn on to show trades. The 3rd trade is actually intrabar hidden behind trade 2. Is it wrong entering in the middle of the bar? The bar didn't swing down yet, and my sell order was a...

Before Responding to everyone, I'm going to play observer like I did monday. It helped me see clearly what transpired during execution. I'm trying to adopt these beliefs and think/say/do them in SIM. I'm a consistently successful trader because I... Objectively identify my edges. (for those...

Sorry for confusion. Kidding about the Mountain Dew ding dongs. I do not find losing funny. Hopefully my actions will prove that. I'll respond this eve. Appreciate the feedback. I have some questions but at work.

Today's trades. In preparing for this morning's session, there was an obvious zone to test. This became very clear after the rejection of yesterdays HOD. Trade 1: -4 pt Signal: Break out pullback to previous support. Sell 4280.75 Initial Stop 4284.75 Target measured move to the zone to test...

I'll be here AM Wednesday, tomorrow. Wish I had more time to trade but so is life. Hopefully in the new year, I'll be able to change shifts at work and be able to trade every morning session at least. I'm ready for that. I'd prefer more consistency but that's what I'm working towards. Trade...

Good preserving mental capital. I never knew it was that important until RN pointed it out. Good stuff.

Hey TD, would it be easier if I left my PA lines in and that way you can maybe see what I saw before each bar printed? Wed. morning I'll leave all that up. I just removed it because I thought it would make it simple to see the trades taken. Did you read my review on trades one and two? I wasn't...
