Good point. Bad principle. "I always buck the trend of intellegent notions". - T-REX That sounds great on paper but in theory.......its FALSE!!! Hindsite is 20/20. We as traders only know of a developing trend only AFTER it has developed. We never know in advance the magnatude of a move...

Nice reply.:) I love great dialogue. Heres my point. If you are upside down on your Risk Reward (RR) then you inturn will have a higher degree of trade opportunities. When you limit your strategy to only 3:1 you will have in essence limited yourself from achieving many great trading...

I respect that.:) That is a great argument. I can not deny the truth in that statement. :D Good luck DUDE.....T-REX:) :cool:

Great topic. If you are daytrading then yes you need to have closer stops. YOU cant determine how much the market will give you on any given day. What YOU have to decide as a trader is how much to you anticipate the market should give you vs. how much you are willing to risk to get too that...

Hey ES a little corney humor on a boreing day. tongue & cheek!!!!!! Black = a positive return. when a company is in the black it is said to be profitable. Fade the Black -......means to fade the trend in this case. dont believe the hype....short the rally......etc.etc.etc.:D a...

Although today is a "NEUTRAL" day it would not classify as a "Breakout" day by my systems standards even though the mkt is up right now. If I were to entry today @ all (I'm not) I would short @ 1014.25 stop-limit and fade the early rally. It should start to sell off the closer we get to the Fed...

No. that was the actual entry point. Obviously it did not pull back that far so I did not get filled. Those types of entries are common with my "Swing Vix Volatility Breakout System". especially on "GAP-MOVE" days. :D

Hey DUDE. I happend to live in N. VA and I can tell you DUDE that PEPCO, BG&E and the like will have there hands full. Remember a few weeks ago we had strong T. Storms and we lost power to about 120,000 people. What will a hurricane do????? Like the previous post.....Tornados are the worst...

Cool. so this will be more like a 1.50 pt scalp???? :confused: p.s. usually there is like no momentum of volume enough to get your trade off. do you really think you will be able to scalp this environment? And if you do when will you get out? because usually around 2:00pm EST the market...

Do you really plan to trade ahead of an FOMC release????? :confused:

Yes. Thanks for bringing that to my attention. I thought tha I had deleted that from today's report. You will note that I also stated that the system is flat today and will remain on the sidelines. :D p.s. regardless of where the market is currently trading that entry point was valid on...

FOMC day! Expect the unexpected! The system is flat. No trade entries today. If anything changes I will post it. :D

lindq I posted a +convergence chart on the 09 Sept 2003 section of my T-REX Journal. I also posted a negative divergence chart as well and since the mkt has been under selling pressure. It does work. :D

Hi JM Have you back tested your trading Idea? Have you ever traded this system in realtime? Looks very interesting. I must say that it looks very confusing though. But if it works for you.......GREAT!!! p.s. I have found that the old fashion way of reading the ADX works best for me...

better yet are you long "FLML"? Good call on "BBI" looks like it could touch 19.00 and break below the 40-day line. :D

Try PFG BEST. :D

Way to go! :D I dig your stats! What is the initial starting capital requirement to trade this methodology? And what is the minimum tick/pt size in terms of US $$$'s? :cool:

In my opinion FOREX is the next best thing to slice bread. If there were no NQ or ES to trade I would trade FOREX exclusively. Note: The Euro Currency Futures contract will give you the pivot off the opening bid/ask action that you seek. The Euro often has large gap-moves in the overnight...

Hey Dude. how is it going? you caught my attention when you said NQ & ES, thats my territory.....Haa.Ha.Ha.Ha...:D I'm interested to know what you see? I must say I love your website and I've had the chance to glance at your thread. Great stuff. Keep churning out those points......DUDE...
