Here is yestarday afternoons chart. THere is a about 2 hours of slaloming with a 25 minute interval for every reverse. Following slaloming was a pace flaw, then centering, then BO into the rocket long. I had done most things correctly trading only from the 5 minute. I did use the 1 min for the...

Today was a very very tough day for taking rockets. We seem to be in a rangy day(slaloming) today. From open until about 9:50 we were in a 5 min top too trough interval. At 9:50, it looked like some funk shit(change) was happening. I felt that this change would be a great time to short. I...

I only post the 1 minute because thats where i look to watch when i make executions. I base my trades off the 5 min. Find yourslef becoming more content using the 5 instead of the 1 min. I think the 5 gives a more optimal view of the market than the 1 min(not to mention jack sais to use the 5)...

Walter, While i appreciate you trying to help, i think you are off base with your suggestions. Jack stresses plateau after plateau of sucesses. IF you have just started out, begninner rockets should be the only trade you learn FIRST. I assume this is the level you are at since you dont quite...

The second point 3 is often a parallel channel too the two pt 2s. So if you see that you were in a rocket, had two pt 2s like dawgs pic shows, draw a parallel line from your original point 1 and a pt parallel too where the two pt 2 lines would be. this is the right side of the channel. You can...

On thursday, As I was C&R, I noticed something very cool that you are refering too in terms of tacks having the same spacing. It seemed that the perfect time for reversing was 5 min(peaks occuring every 10 minutes). It seemed that their was constant spacing in terms of time and peaks. I think...

I see what you mean. I will definately look into this, as i did miss the short rocket this morning waiting for the 1 min macd to xover(1 min xover rule is something i use). I am gong to start bracketing the open anyway and look for continuation. this would have also got me that short rocket this...

Since you said you are going to deal with a million details asap, you might be already covering this. When you would have slalomed between the failed rocket and the centering at 12:00, how many trades would you have taken? I count 4 optimal trades; failed rocket reversal long to 10:30, short...

today i posted the 5 minute. I think we had a failed rocket short due to the economic numbers, followed by a long medium iceberg. jc

After looking at the 1 min chart that i posted on page 150, I noticed something very interseting. For the medium/slow pace iceberg (i am still not sure exactly which one), the 1 Min macd Xover would have been a PERFECT signal to get short or long. It would ahve been great until it turned into no...

Just wanted to post where i think possible C&R spots are. It seems that i get more(C&R spots divided by time) C&R spots in slower markets like ccc than fast rockets or medium pace. This might lead me to think i may be doing this wrong. jc

Today i think we have been in a medium/slow pace(iceberg) and no pace(ccc). At synch we had a rocket signal long that turned into a wash. At this point i think that we were entering a medium/slow pace. Eventually, i think we might want to short on the failed rocket long. The medium/slow...

Thanks a lot Jack. I think this post cleared up a lot of questions for me about the ouiji board. In terms of flaws that are cell blockers, i am gong to take a shot at the 2 i think i understand: For fast pace rocket too no pace(ccc), the cell blocker would be when price fails to traverse to...

Jack, I was trying to figure out sequences for market paces and the only ones i can think of are Fast pace(rocket) too no pace(ccc)and vice versa from no pace(ccc, more centering) to fast pace(rocket). What is the sequence when the market goes from or too slow or medium paces? Sometimes i...

My apoligies, they are different situations and i appreciate you trying to mediate the problem. hopefully, you guys can work something out and everyone can be happy. I just have seen many posts by jack where he was trying to HELP someone, only to get ripped and flamed unnecessarily where the...

Since the moderators are not cooperating with a simple forum, i think maybe you could start a msn message board. IF this forum was really for the benefit of the traders, THEN your requests would have been fulfilled. There was a similiar problem with a former trader(hitman) who originally would...

Yes, i know that i might be wrong with operating points as i do not fully understand them. I was just trying to throw a few thoughts out there. The next step for me though after reading the toolbox journal is to figure out the pace of the market. I can recognize fast paces(rockets) and CCC(none...

1. I was still in quasi slaloming mode. BUT, I ALWAYS LOOK FOR VOLUME SPIKES. especially after midday. Jack stresses the PM start using volume as the indicator. 2. Yes, i was short as soon as volume spike down. I was looking for stochs to go to a continuation mode(which occured). 3. Yes, i...

I was gonna stop posting charts until july 1 but I couldnt help such a textbook play. well......its a textbook play for people who take the time to understand what he is saying. Up 138 cents on the spys today thanks to JACK.

I really appreciate your posts Jack. Each post has so much information and i know i am only understanding a little bit of what could be grasped. I had a few questions to your post above and i also wanted to post the 1 min of this afternoon with annotations to make sure we all can see visually...
