    Spydertrader's Jack Hershey Futures Trading Journal

    Didn't mean to get ahead. The reviewing done this weekend have gone a long way to clearing things up that I was confused about. I just thought it might have been an ah-ha moment but will wait to find out. I don't trade at that resolution so waiting to address this makes sense. Have a ways to go...

    The other thought I had was the relationship to volume and time of day. Being aware of this has helped me recognize things easier when doing daily playbacks with Ensign.

    When I first read this I felt like it was another reply to a newbie looking for a free lunch. I have reread many parts of this and other related threads but hoped someone might shed some light on my questions. However I did go back to review and started rereading the SCT q/a thread. It was...

    Spydertrader's Jack Hershey Futures Trading Journal

    This is the first chart I have posted. Previous software was not user friendly for drawing trendlines, channels and annotating. Just switched to Ensign which has helped make things more efficient. I have yet to set things up for gaussians and annotating but will do it this weekend. I don't...

    indu.x is what I'm using, seems to work but the offsett seems like it needs adjusting frequently. As the journal proceeds we will see if this is a common issue.

    I know it's off topic but along the lines of software. I had esignal and now use Investor /RT with IQfeed. http://linnsoft.com/ The programmer there Chad is very sharp and willing to add indicators to new releases which they do frequently. I have made a couple request with the volume...

    http://www.charthub.com/images/2007/03/12/1_min_ftt.png This is the 2 min chart I was using this morning. The 3rd pane, green and red histogram is the market delta(buy-sell vol). In the first 2 channels it gave several clues as to what might happen. The last 2 bars in the first green channel...

    Nice job on the debrief. Thanks for sharing. I found it extremely helpful when Spyder did this also. Kind of hoped it would be more than a one day wonder. I saw pretty much the same setups develop today however I used a 2min chart for the first down channel and exited on the big price and...

    There are many situations where the drawing of the trendline will make a difference in the official title of the setup. As Spyder said it is a signal of change. My software is not that accurate with trendlines or parallel lines unless I am zoomed in. Using the volume is the key. Either way the...

    Spyder I was just going to agree with Jander that a breakdown of the thought process would be of great benefit. As I opened a window to post this, your post of the breakdown came. For me it is a huge learning tool to see this. I have one question regarding the 9:50 short. I see it clearly but...

    Thanks Spyder Do you still consider that the forest level. I guess you do or you wouldn't have posted it. Just hard for me to see at that resolution. It was a good resistance area to be looking for that although I don't imagine that is part of the current methods. I have been happy with the...

    Spyder or however feels they understand please help. I'm seeing most of the annotations correctly in realtime. In reviewing Spyders chart I have a few questions. 1. the green FTT above the red 1 at 10:35, can you have a FTT on the same bar as the volitility expansion or is the FTT the...

    Spyder I'm glad you referenced the multiple ftt's in that one area and reminded that at the forest level they dont matter. When I saw those I wondered how you would annotate that zone. I saw those and felt it was similar to some action on Thursday around the same time of day. I got chopped...

    Spydertrader's Jack Hershey Futures Trading Journal

    I've been following this thread for the last month. Drawing the channels, watching the vol. gaussians. I am now able to spot the ftt's fairly well. I can see the gaussians and anticipate the next one. I haven't yet read all of Journal II so the answers I need may be in there. I don't completely...

    Best wireless provider for trading

    I live in the Seattle area and tried the Verizon wireless setup. They are my cell phone carrier. I use DTN IQ feed. The problem I had was the signal isn't a consistent stream. It fluctuates in bandwidth. I was told this is normal for wireless connections. For most interntet needs this isn't a...

    thanks that helped. I've been reading Mind over Markets so I'm starting to gain a better understanding of MP. Long ways to go. I know we've been over this before but could you refresh my memory regarding how many days you combine in you MP charts.

    5P Could you explain the 1395.75 mp level. I see all the others you mentioned but not that one.

    5P What do you have for MP today? I am looking at several mp charts, 1 day, 5 day, 20 day. Still trying to figure out what to use. Also do you use the volume based or time based MP? Being the last day of the month do you expect the big guys to hold it together or run higher one more day?

    Picking Tops.

    Thanks that helped. I got out after a few minutes of the price not dropping but didn't reverse. I see now I need to not be so focused on a certain setup, stay flexible. Seems obvious now after you point it out.
