Thank you Anek and Arnie for the replies.... plenty of homework for the weekend... :D

c, I get caught in this also... like in two minds whether to exit when the swing pauses or to let it pullback and run again... this indecision usually makes me exit on the pullback so as not to lose all my profit, then it goes my way again... Tonight I am going to force myself to think ADD...

That explains it!!! Thanks for the info Jaxon.... I was in that move (simulated trade) and the T$S was showing 2081 last sale with 2075 bid. Didn't understand what was going on so exited the trade.... cheers.

hehe... thanks.... just looked at it again.... the W top is the formation on the current time frame which is mapping out a retracement on a higher time frame trend for continuation in that direction.

Great chart Anek... missed one of the longs in the morning for 5 points - its speed caught me out, and closed another 5 pointer out for no reason capturing only 2... all in all was +6.5 points on NQ on 8 trades - finished just as that rectangle started forming... Love it... :cool:

Just wondering about these formations Anek.... would it be that the second swing low/high goes beyond the first - triggering all the stops lying 1-2 ticks outside these areas creating very powerful reversal patterns?

Haven't used this feature yet... just collecting data so that I can in future... so far, a great all round package allowing one to diversify into other areas of trading as well as honing the AHG skills... :D

I am using ninja in sim mode for order entry and charting... love the way it allows me to adjust my positions from the chart - awesome... and excellent logging of trades and reporting capabilities too... what took me 30 - 45 minutes to anotate my chart EOD for my daily trades and produce...

xcel, to get an image of your chart in Ninja, just right click on it and select "Save as image". To do more than one chart on your desktop, hit printscreen button and save the clipboard file to the desktop. Use Irfanview to convert it to a jpeg. cheers.

got it, thanks. Currently watching NQ on 100 & 1500 tick charts. Saw the "big ass" sym triangle on the 1500 tick and also smaller triangles in the 100 tick. That's why I was uncertain. Cheers.

Anek, firstly I'd like to congratulate you on a fantastic thread... thank you for all your work. I have one question if I may... do you take breakouts of small sym triangles which are inside of a bigger sym triangle?

Be careful of the laptop you buy fearless... some companies that are supplying vista loaded notebooks don't produce drivers for XP, so if you don't like vista, you can't load XP onto them with all hardware working properly... HP's out here in Oz is one example.

Read Marty Schwartz's book regarding trading other people's money...

You're a champ mischief.... thank you very much!

good question fickle... am currently 2/3rds of the way through the book and have found it an eye opener with regards to system development and testing... and was the first thing that popped into my mind when Frosty posted about the loss the other day...

thanks for the link chief, and good points made too... cheers.

I use that utility already - saves a lot of time... Good point about company websites, thanks JAC.

Thanks JAC, I've got most of them, just some I have trouble with... like GROW... I suppose we could cull off symbols that we can't find data for...

hey virgintrader, i have been using mischief's scripts for a while so am following the basic methodology pre channels and all the rest of the intermediate and advanced stuff. Still in testing so no damage done, but makes it frustrating when you can't find earnings dates for some of the...

Did anyone have GROW's earnings release on their radar today? Could not get any financial information for it... big gap down... ouch!
