Memory is usually a worthwhile upgrade. Depending on what you're running, a jump from 256 to 512 could help. The processor upgrade probably isn't worth it, not a significant increase. More importantly, it's very rare to see a notebook that will take a processor upgrade. Also keep in mind...

It's possible that the CRT requires you to save the settings you've set for that resolution, before you power it down. Not through the PC, but with the monitor's controls. I've had several monitors like that, they had memory slots which allowed you to save settings on screen sizing and...

My apologies if that seemed harsh or beside the point, rickty. I think I was focusing on encouraging no pm, and perhaps lost sight of other factors of interest to the participants of this thread. Sincerely, MarkB

electron, sorry if I took you too literally. porgie, perhaps he enjoys the feedback, and sharing with us. Seems like his setups have come along at a natural pace. I really don't see how his trading has declined. rickty, perhaps you'd like to start or participate in a thread on mechanical...

Why not clue us in to your observations, electron? If no pm is concerned about what he's doing at this point, and he's offered us so much, I'm not sure that it's particularly fair to give him something else to try and puzzle out! Best, Mark

no pm, I think that if you look at the ramifications of what 3dog is saying, it doesn't invalidate your method at all. It just explains why there's such a difference in volume related indicators between the big contract and the mini. Volume divergence vs. price action has been a valuable...

Thought that might work with your double top method though :D

It's not lost at all. We're all looking forward to no_pm's participation tomorrow, I'm more than certain. Please let's follow Magna's instructions here. Best, Mark

I think that's a fallacy. At least to adopt it as a universal principle. Many traders use pivot points, standard S/R calculations, and they work. Perhaps because they are self fulfilling. In any case, my point, and I THINK NihabaAshi's, is why hint that there's a better way at all, if...

NihabaAshi made a perfectly valid point though. Why hint at a better method and not share it? Especially in a forum designed for mutual education. In any case, once Magna sees this we'll probably all get a wrist slap for cluttering the thread. So perhaps we should lower our postulations to...

Any of us who have been active on various forums, newsgroups, etc., over the years knows that it's really easy to misread "tone". Offshore, I certainly did not mean to offend; I should have made it clear that it was a matter of my perception only, not your intentions. JD, I know what you...

Since it seems that no_pm doesn't post on weekends, perhaps it would be best to wait until he has a chance to offer his observations on Offshore's posts, rather than jumping all over each other :) Personally I don't care for Offshore's tone, and I don't really see how criticism of this sort can...

Perhaps you can tell us which testing platform you are using. We have experts here who are experienced with a variety of platforms. If you clue us in on how this testing was done, we can help you with exporting the data. And as rickty said, we'd all like to see the code used for the...

Can you publish the hard data on your tests here? I'm sure that it would interest all of us, including no pm. If your guys have tested it over that long of a period, they've either automated it, or have collected records on checking every potential setup manually. Publishing the info would go...

Well I had no power until 4PM, so really no choice in the matter!

Okay, last version of the spreadsheet for the day. I didn't want this to be such a big deal on the thread. I won't post much on it in the future. This one's improved though, delete the old ones.

Just to clarify, you're looking for a new high because.....? The divergence happened before ADX went over 30. Right? So what you're really looking for is a new setup, essentially. A new high could possibly get rid of the divergence too.

Major typo in that last version of the spreadsheet. Corrected here. Many apologies.

Revised sheet based on rules clarifications covered by no pm this morning. Now with new rounding magic :) I'll pretty it up to improve the flow after taking it for a spin, but wanted any feedback or suggestions before going off "half cocked". Feel free to PM me with any comments, so as...

Interesting differences in our charts again. My ADX was a little higher at the 11:00 (CT) bar, and continues higher until breaking. But I see now that it wasn't quite at 30 when the divergence occurred, so I was wrong to see that as a setup.
