    Advanced trading and technical analysis books (not listed on ET)

    I am familiar with the 2B and 1-2-3 patterns found in at least the Vic books as described here: http://www.dacharts.com/setups.php I am also semi-familiar with the Butterfly (and Bat, Crab, and Dragon) patterns from a few online sources as well as "Trade Chart Patterns Like the Pros" by Suri...

    Advanced trading and technical analysis books (not listed on ET)

    My university library does not have these books. I appreciate the suggestion, but I'm far past that stage. Edit: I actually hadn't checked the library site for two of the books until now, and they do have Trader Vic's Methods of a Wall Street Master. I will check it out. Thanks :)

    Advanced trading and technical analysis books (not listed on ET)

    I'm having a problem deciding on my next book targets for trading and technical analysis, and was wondering if anyone could provide me with some insight; any information helps. My funds are a bit limited, but these are the books I'm currently looking into: Momentum, Direction, and Divergence...

    EUR/JPY Evening Trader

    I’m in the middle stages of my trading session at 3:45 a.m., and wanted to get my thoughts down on lot sizing. As of now, I believe I’m wrapping up the finishing touches of my trading turnaround. I have charts of ten currency pairs up on screen now (been looking at seven, just added a...

    usd cad 30 min triangle

    Not sure I agree da-net, it looks like the TLs bounding the triangle on the top have far more strengh than the other, and it seems like five waves to me. I would definitely monitor reactions to the next upper TL though. Edit: I know I said I was bearish but I likely would have looked for a...

    usd cad 30 min triangle

    Toughie. I'm saying down as it looks a bit like a head and shoulders (the uptrend part), the dominant trend is down, and there aren't really any touches at the top (for the part of the triangle you're seeing). If there is an upside breakout I suspect it could try to pull back to the broken...

    Does anyone analyze currency indexes to make FX trades?

    Surdo, I didn't see them in TOS. They also didn't show up on yahoo finance or with my gain connection on ninjatrader, though that really doesn't mean much. What are you using for them? Thanks

    EUR/JPY Evening Trader

    Ok, it's 2 am and i'm not staying up for london open (even though it's right now, I believe). The fact is that getting up in time for evening rush hour blows, and if I wanted to trade London badly enough I could just get up and trade 9am-1 (first hour after london still good movement I have...

    Does anyone analyze currency indexes to make FX trades?

    Yes I did see that stockcharts only had weekly and daily data, but I figured I would ask if you every used intraday. Futuresources seems good, but something seems really wrong about the times on their chart (3:53 am eastern and their chart says 2:40 on it). I emailed their customer service and...

    Is this a Gartley?

    New to the pattern. I think I found one here on the EUR/JPY 5 min chart. The left top is indeed the ultimate high, located at a spike. Thanks, Greg <img src=http://elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=2192096 width=800> click on attachment to enlarge image

    Does anyone analyze currency indexes to make FX trades?

    Exactly the kind of thing I'm looking for! Do you use ones for the other major currencies like the chf or aud, and have you used them for intraday data?

    Does anyone analyze currency indexes to make FX trades?

    Any data source is helpful. I'm trying to limit costs now (just realized I've spent $425 on books, and I only have $1500 spare to start with), but I'm very happy to collect any resources I can - even if they just stay stashed in my bookmarks for a while. If the cost is worth it though I will...

    Does anyone analyze currency indexes to make FX trades?

    Very nice, but where can I get it? I didn't see the DJECI listed anywhere. Do you have to order the data through them? Also do they have other currencies? Thanks

    Does anyone analyze currency indexes to make FX trades?

    I just had the idea that studying currency indexes could be a very good idea (match a bullish pattern with a bearish one and trades would have a both higher potential profits and higher probabilities of being profitable -- makes enough sense to be worth a shot). Anyway, what do you use to...
