Question, The idea of a 5 day rolling is interesting to me since my time frame is daytrading. And obviously the shorter the period, the more of zoom lens is being put on the most recent activity.) I am curious about the change in line on a short term basis as far as decisions compared to the...

Thanks for the advice Shanb. I think narrowing down my list would be the best. Its finding the fine line b/w trying to watch too much, and not trade it consistantly well b/c you dont really know the products (as you mentioned) or watching too little, and you stare at the dead stuff, when it...

I am still around and reading/learning but I feel like I dont have much to offer, and I kind of felt like I was always asking questions and not giving anything back in return. (I didnt want to be "that guy" who was always asking questions, but not bringing anything to the table.) Mav, I have...

Looking at my charts, how do you guys handle new weeks not coinciding with new months, etc. For example, SINA's weekly OR was established 2 days ago, but a new month starts today, and overlaps exists. I am guessing since monthly wins out since its a longer timeframe, and represents more of...

Ah I see. Thanks

Just curious, Isnt the ATR expressed as a MA by default? Or are you creating a custom indicator to smooth out the somewhat smoothed ATR?

What kind of platform makes these 20 seconds charts?

Actually not to split hairs, but you can buy DIY-kits from newegg or tigerdirect that come tested for compatibility issues from a hardware standpoint. So that takes that out of the equation. Thats what I did, and I will never buy anyother way. Granted you do need to know the very basics...

Cool. THanks. I also always kind of wondered about the dropping off of numbers. I figured it was some sort of cyclical thing Fisher had identified, and he found value in it.

I wasnt aware that you reset the line at the beginning of each month. It makes sense though for the reason you stated. Question though, if it is early in the month and you get a strong reading, do you weigh it the same as other times in the month? I ask b/c the numberline doesnt have to...

Good idea.. You might have just saved me alot of time and money.. This makes a ton of sense... You basically provided a common sense solution to my last post lol..

Yes and no. Here is what I mean. Tradestation works in a user specified interval. You need to make sure that whatever your OR time is, that you are using a interval that is at least 1/2 that in your calculations . This allows more flexibility in telling the computer what is a failure vs a...

As I mentioned this is my next project. Its with Tradestation though. I can share this with you if it comes to fruition.

First thing I did was reduce the universe of stocks to a manageable number: $15-100, DailyATR(20) > .75, averagevolume(30) >1,500,000 THen I had an intraday indicator created for TS that had inputs available for OR timeframe, # of days back to look at, and other criteria. I used...

I was going to ask about this, and these examples give me a good chance to. (they had large OR) I have been looking at statistics on equities concerning OR/DailyATR ratios, and behaviors. One thing I am noticing, is that alot of the time a large relative (volatile) OR, leads to a larger...

I am trying to post charts as .jpg filer, and they arent that large (114KB). When I browse and hit the button, it just erase the file location, and nothing happens. I tried a few weeks ago, and same thing happened. I thought it might be on your end, so I tried again. A year ago, it worked...

Mav, I am trying to look at things on more of a relative basis since you recommend this, and also remember you saying something regarding intraday equities awhile back when I asked about product selection. Earlier you said that I should be looking for stocks forming A ups, when the market...

Fair question, and very valid point. I always thought its because firms had to find various edges to attempt to diversify their risk and use as many non-correlated strategies as possible, and avoid slippage. Also they have to find multiple strategies in order put to work all that money...

Yes, that makes more sense.

Going from memory, he mentions 2 specific services in one of his videos. (The last video I believe). One is a news service, and the other was a a website. I think the gartman report was one service, and "Depka.com" (a middle eastern news site, probably used for news related to oil I am...
