Dottom - Thanks for the heads-up. I'll look into the 3-7 time frame. What about afternoon/evening after the 4 PM close?

Hi guys - I'm just getting into trading the ES and NQ. Would like to be able to take some trades in "off-hours" but not sure what kind of liquidity/market efficiency there is around the clock. How liquid are these markets around the clock, and when are the best times to trade (other than...

Anything up on Son of SVS? This thread got off to a promising start...then pffffft. Wondering how the Kid is doing. :cool:

Quah has been extraordinarily generous with his time and effort, no doubt about it. I don't think any of us need him to hold our hands from here on out in terms of testing the method. Having said that, though, it would be really helpful if we could get into the mind that created this thing in...

Quah - Thanks for checking back in - I'm sure we all hope to see what happens with SSVS and whatever else you're cooking up in your lab. Haven't looked in detail at NQ - but so far SVS looks like it had its best day in the ES on Monday, less so on Tuesday, and barely positive on Wednesday...

I'm still around, wondering the same thing... I've had a chance to take a look at SVS on the ES over the past 3 days, as well as today, and it looks like it's still holding up pretty well.

The SVS and SSVS threads have gotten awfully quiet all of a sudden. Waddap?

Thanks Vikana. The feedback is appreciated. If you could detail how you tested it, that would really be insightful. I was planning to tweak the criteria - namely, test only stocks priced over 60, which Cooper admits improves the results – and possibly add another filter relating to the...

I'm not a big fan of following gurus, either - I'm just looking for an underlying basis that can provide an edge for the options strategy - which will hopefully have its own edge. A successful pro trader buddy of mine recommended this book to me, but I'm interested in getting as much feedback as...

I appreciate the response. Conceptually, I'm thinking the method is probably still fairly timeless because of the basic logic of it; as you mentioned, it's simply about finding a trending stock that's pulled back, with specific rules defining the parameters. My aim is to find explosive...

I'm curious if anyone has traded using Jeff Cooper's 5-Day Momentum Method. I'm thinking of testing it as the underlying for making short-term options trades. Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks a lot for the tip. I've sent an e-mail, no response yet.

Contact me offline and I'll look forward to talking to you further. Soph Jinx

Holio - Will tell JBJ you said hello next time I see him! Whether or not he'll be intrigued if I tell him your handle remains to be seen. Regardless, I wouldn't be surprised if Richie Sambora might be. Wink-wink. Soph Jinx

Brick area - are you nearby?

I've been to the Optionetics 2-Day and attend the free repeats whenever they're in my area, which is/was part of the offer. I found the strategies to be profitable - I have mostly traded straddles. While they are not aggressive peddlers of seminars, etc., there is some of that - their Platinum...

Thanks again, I will look into it. :)

Thanks, I appreciate the response. Bright is supposedly going to be opening up a branch in Red Bank later in 2002, about 30 minutes north of me, and that is an option I've been considering - although the 25K startup money is a bit of an obstacle. I've also been in contact with a group in North...

Figured I'd get a bit more specific about what I'm requesting. I would be interested in talking to a highly successful professional trader in New Jersey - or really, anywhere from CT to DC, within a couple hours' commute - who has been trading full-time at least 3-5 years, who would enjoy...

Hi there, I've been enjoying the board for a couple of months, finally decided to become a member due to an unexpectedly accelerated need for help. I own a small graphic design/desktop publishing company near the Jersey Shore, and have been quietly preparing to transition to trading...
