    The ACD Method

    Here are my notes from the 3rd tape of the NYMEX Symposium : Trading is the hardest business in the world. Not for the meek. Tap into people’s emotions, people’s perceptions. Get people caught so they want to run for the door. The more the indicators line up, the more you want...

    The ACD Method

    I’m flipping thru EOD charts looking at the Sushi Roll and doing a little backtesting and I’d like your opinions on something. I set up my scan and here’s what I noticed. In all cases today’s close is higher than the high of the previous 5 day rolling trading days, and in most...

    LOOK AT THIS CHART - all you predicting mofos, what will SPY do next?

    I’m using P&F charts more and more as a secondary reading to find another source of S&R and especially price objectives. This stock (market) has run its race for the time being. It’s tired. The sell in May and go away is coming early this year. My first count down is to the 122 area and...

    The ACD Method

    Your post came off as someone I listen to. That’s a damn fine nugget of information and I’m surprised more people haven’t mentioned that. What you say makes perfect sense as I’ve been spending far too much time in the obvious area. I’m hopeful that I’ll see the tie in and...

    The ACD Method

    Didn’t realize the EOD OR info is of a proprietary nature. I wrongly assumed some general EOD OR parameters would be covered in a later chapter or in the appendix. That’s apparently not the case. Thanks for your input. I appreciate it.

    The ACD Method

    Perhaps you can clear something up for me before I decide to spend a great deal of time studying the ACD methodology. Namely: What is the opening range when using end of day data? I currently swing trade using end of day data with a breakout here or a pullback there. My work is in the...

    Confirmation vs. S/R

    Regarding "Indicators" there's a guy around here who writes very much like you and he said: "While computers allow us all to track gobs of data and indicators, I believe their real value is in organizing the data and filtering out some of the noise. I'm a firm believer in working to make...

    Giving up on day trading?

    Thank you crater, That was very enjoyable. I appreciate your math comments as I took far too many wasteful college classes. I never thought I would be studying bone head math and statistics on my own time but I sure do now. I had not considered the info you provided in that particular...

    Learning to read Price Action with P&F Charting

    Courtesy of Old Trader I'll try to post more, but let me end with this story: I knew a guy on the floor who kept a point and figure chart by hand in the pit. He'd make his columns of X's and O's, and when the column of X's went past the last column of X's that was a buy signal, a sell was the...

    How to research and verify trading ideas

    Thank you for this post Talon. I do want to experiment a bit with volatility in my newbe backtesting. I understand and can code the first two items. But … “Average true range > 1% of the underlying or $1, whichever is larger.” What number do I use for the ATR? I’m starting...
