    how did you learn trading

    Self 'taught' by trial and ERROR. A mentor would be great, but picking a methodology is almost like picking a major at college...a great professor is awesome but what if its in basketweaving and you wanna major in underwater basketweaving? I think i had one slight advantage....I came...

    On Balance Volume Divergence...thoughts?

    Here's the ES weekly bar chart. The black study below is on balance volume showing a clear divergence. Below that is accumulation/distribution showing a divergence as well, albeit much lesser. Thoughts here?

    I'm not even sure if this thread is real or not. I'll just assume it is. Ripley, be careful, you may be unconsciously trading untill an account blowout tells you to stop. Ex. You know your day has ended unsuccessfully when you've had a blowout....but what is your signal your day is...

    Oil towards 65 or 35

    consider this: this chart shows the UT or 'demand line' that started to assert itself in September 2003. Several tests of the line since have confirmed its strength. Several rallies off of this line have corrected back to it...in the past year getting more volitile. Since the top...

    "Stupid" system for ES

    I have a tendency to post quickly and not explain things. The concept I was trying to describe above is more of a scalp type system, w/ only exits/entries based on previous bar....direction would be based on the trend of the 3 minute bars, it would be a fade. I.E. 5 consecutive 3 min bars...

    Do Trendlines work?

    "Stupid" system for ES

    A 'stupid system' I've thought of pretains to buying based on Highs/Lows of previous bar. Ex....buy on open of a 3 min bar when the previous 3 minute bar fails to make a new low. take profits at high, or whenever. Stop below low of previous bar.

    Anybody looking to sell a proven, scalable trading system/model?

    call me skeptical, but I think its gonna be tough for an agreement such as this, offered up in this way, to come to fruition between to honest people. So if you are the honest part of the equation, be careful w/ the applicants that have probably filled your PM box by now.
