    Josh, while we have a pretty quiet market I would like to ask a couple of questions related to your "Sim trading".I glance at your results without thinking about them. Did you set up your sim account to account for commissions? The leverage you use from time to time , is that comparable to...

    TRADING IS SIMPLE ... (TheRumpledOne)

    Ok . Poor reference on my part. So getting back to my written example where current price <20 pips of current daily low. If there is a green that closed ,say 46 but the high was 48 in that 5 minute bar.Is the prompt for a BUY at 48 on the next bar.That being 2 pips above the closing price...

    TRADING IS SIMPLE ... (TheRumpledOne)

    Damn, the very chart I was going to refer to on page 26 has been removed!! I seem to recall that there might have been 4 or 5 pips in your illustration on that chart. See if I can describe iit in words. <20 from low. A green popped up. For argument sake closed 46. Was high as 48...

    I can see where the 'prompt' is to enter a trade, but I would like to know if there is a minimum size to the 'wick'. Surely, a one pip 'wick'would not qualify as a prompt.

    TRADING IS SIMPLE ... (TheRumpledOne)

    I think what TRO is saying a LOW has already been established at some point. The price moved outside that area by > 20 pips and is "revisiting" (< 20 pips),setting off alert for a potential trade. Bottom line, you don't have to 'know' ,it already 'is'.

    Touched 6250 so I cancelled 6675. Meant to say touch not 'break. Good trading,y'all. I don't think there is anything for me now.

    No, I don't think you are insane if you decided to expand your stop. I thought you already did that to 137100.You know what you are doing ,but it sort of surprised me that you said that you were going that far out last night. I am also looking for 6300-6200. Selling 6E at 134.28.Nearly there.
