Great posts and great input so far. Thanks for starting it. Paul

Decision Bar works of S and R and does what they say it will but it also gives false positives. You have to make the choice when and when not to take the trade. It is a tool like anything else.

What I don't get is why the Mods let the bashing go on. You would think the owner of this board "Baron" I guess is his name would like to keep the board professional and all of the bad mouthing to a minimum. Nothing can ruin a board quicker then people leaving because of stupid shit like the...

Thanks.

Is there a single location that shows when earnings annoucements and quarterly reports will be coming out each month? Thanks.....

Wouldn't using volume bars be building it into a chart?

Thanks guys I think OBV is what I was looking at. Thanks for the help. Paul

OK, I am going to get flamed for this but, if I look at a Volume Indicator I would think I would see 0 then numbers incrementing upward but I see positive plus negative numbers Like -1000 etc... What do the negatives indicate? How do you read this? Sorry for sounding like an idiot.

I would think being detached might be good for trading. If you don't give a shit it would make it easy to stay calm and not make bad choices.

Noticed your link came from and ADD site. Your symptoms seem like they could be ADD but there are others. If you were to get diagnosed w/ADD the drugs Ritalin, Adderall, Desoxyn would help w/motivation and mood. Antidepressant's are also used for the treatment of ADD but are not effective...

Everything seems fine here to me also. Movie theaters are full. Shopping centers are packed as well as places to eat. I live in Texas which supposedly is less impacted than the rest of the country but it seems like business as usual here. Paul

Its funny you say that because I did get stopped out this afternoon :) I had taken 3 trades this morning though and so I am still up for the day over $400 dollars. It doesn't always work and I will even move my stop if I feel the trade is still going to go in my direction.

As an add on to my last post. I have also only been trading the first and last two hours of the trading day. Not sure if this matters but to me it seems like there is less sideways movement and small crosses that switch back.

You could be right and probably are right. I am not saying what I am doing is the best way in a normal market. I am just saying I think it's VERY hard at least for me because 1. I don't have enough experience. 2. Huge swings in the market right now and I am not staying in long enough...

No, I don't have charts and 99% was tongue and cheek. I forgot I was on a stock board dealing w/numbers. Just do the research. Using SPM if you go back and use the rules the market moves at least 7 ticks in the direction of the cross and most of the time a great deal more. My stops are wide...

Sorry, no not points but ticks. $310 per trade including slippage and commision. Do it 3 times per day for $930 per day. I don't have the nads or the $$$ to stay in for 7 pts. I will continue to add cars as I accumulate $$$ and go for the low hanging fruit. To me the longer you are in the...

With SPM it's not that hard to enter. It's the exit. When the line crosses enter. Get out when your profit target has been reached or you fill it's as close as it's going to get. I have been trading 4 contracts for 7 points and get it 99% of the time if I just enter on the cross.

I live in Trophy Club and pretty much anywhere in the DFW area is good with me to meet. How about you?

I would be interested in meeting up if anyone if interested. I'm fairly new to Intraday trading and would like to meet up and talk shop/hang out. Paul

You are correct. So, what is the purpose of your post? Were you just trying to see what type of reponses you would get? (I'm not being a smartass) Just curious why your obvious statement?
