sorry hadn't noticed this question before... here is my current approach i want all my trades to become rockets, but by waiting for a rocket to appear you leave way too much money on the table...just trading rockets is the way get tuned into and learn the market...ideally you want to be able...

not posting the journal every day, just tryind to post when i can add some value...i think knowing and understanding how each part of the sequence leads/relates to each other is one of the keys. i have been working on sequences a lot over the holiday so i thought i would post what i had for...

vorzo, thanks...your comments are almost exactly what i was thinking....just wanted someone elses opinion.

jack been trying to get to the next level by incorporating a faster fractal...my biggest problem is trying to determine whether something is a reversal or a point 2-3 channel traverse...should i just be looking at volume as the driver?...for ex in the attached chart mkt traverses on lower...

nice of them to take as long as possible and break the trades. f-ckers. it's unbelievable the mkt could have been higher and you would have had a loss b/c some jackoff screwed up....i am sure they take care of regular customers that way too....they should have had to execute all of them at...

and now they are gonna break the trades. f-ck.
