Okay, great. Thank you. Bruce:)

natalie, darlin'....you didn't answer me then and you haven't answered me now...lol Bruce c ya:p

I am foggy on the details...let's see you posted something about advancing versus declining volume and its pace being different for the hour than the previous day's. I asked if you had worked up your own study on it or had taken it from a web page. I asked that because I had only seen one web...

hey there. Sure you're right, Natalie. It still seems like it is a fight every day. I guess that's the whole point, fighting that tendency to take the easy way. Oh, yeah, that was a fine bit of trading the other day during the spike. I'm glad you came forward and shared that with us. I...

Hey, a rock fight! Safety helmets and protective vests, everyone. Spectators in the stands, please!

Jack, I was surprised by nitro's comments as well. It was interesting to be in the chat room and experience the confusion in there in general. That he excerpted his own comments from the log is instructive. There were several traders experiencing various symptoms of 'loss of horizon'. It...

Quah rules the freaking mouse! LOL, that worked. Also, when I opened Adobe it asked if I wanted to install a component to allow web viewing of *.pdf files...so that was the real problem. Thank you for your help. Bruce

Yes sir, version 6.0.

Quah, These links don't work for me. the *.pdf files appear as a small icon in the upper left corner of an otherwise blank web page. Using just the notebook link returns a page not available message. Can you help me out here? TIA. Bruce

Saschabr, An 'invisible hand' effect ensues from the cooperation of individuals in a collective endeavor. Let's say, the futures market. Everyone is, more or less, acting in their own self interest. As the market filters these motivations price fluctuations occur. Some individuals, who...

You either didn't read very closely or understand my post. Bruce

Come on, waggie. Give him a break. Unless you have actually worked in the pit or know for a fact what pit traders' average personal daily volumes are, you're just arguing. He's got a theory. If it helps him to think of the 'invisible hand' of the market in this way and he can trade using...

Gordon, Thanks for the PM. I can see from reading your words that you are actually proceeding with an everyday action plan. Here's a little weekend humor, have a good one! Beating a Dead Horse Dakota tribal wisdom says that when you discover you are riding a dead horse, the best...

OK, Gordo, that's fine. One doesn't want to pummel a dead equine. :) Bruce

Gordon. then we had the spike which was way overdone. i mean, that down move was just so overdone with no bounce, it screamed to be bought. as someone else said, how often do you see a move like that with no bounce?! i knew one would come when the momentum stopped. especially if it was some...

These are exciting days, when these market anomolies occur. Usually, but not always, linked to some unexpected and surprising news event, but not always. These days in your trading career, liven things up a bit. It is the day in and day out grind of disciplined trading that makes you a...

sunny did it.

Dot would be a first, nitro, lol. Bruce

I didn't play it but, like you, am learning from it. Start with Nitro's statement, "I had NQ and ES in my sights - by them time I moved the mouse to lift the offer on NQ, it was 3 HANDLES HIGHER!" Keep in mind his first instinct was to trade the QQQ's. The move up on the NQ from 1228 to...

saschebr, Very nice analysis. And an absolutely transparent move. This reminds me of someone recently saying here that we are all masters of the last tick while humility lies within the next tick. Best wishes. Bruce:)
