At a glance, this seems to be a good way to draw a trend line. It is missing some aspects to it but the fundamental thought is correct FOR ME. I'm sure some one that has studied it and used will like it better then my lines and that is fine, Its nice to see some thing that looks like it...

I have tackled netflix in the past as I did gold. On July 29th, I posted http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=3474681#post3474681 Netflix to me seems like it is trading in its long term trend though it has had a fast lower low i would still wait for it to go lower...

OK so a new journal entry starts here. Hopefully I will be spared any soft solicitation here and not get too turned off by this. I'll try to post less but watch my spelling more and we will see how I do. I'm currently limiting my trading to gold. May add in some sliver. Seems...

sorry have been off for way to long. I dont make many long term calls but it should be noted that they are very different then my day trading calls. Think I'll start a new journal of my long term calls. they seem to be all spread out on emails, face book ect.

Is there a way to place a stop order where the stop increases as a function of time or volume? that is to say imagine a channel going up at a 45 degree angle. and you would want to place a sell order if price goes under that diagonal line. Is this possible with sterling trader pro? Or could...

ok this thread runs so fast its hard to find responces. I was trading the spy today and had great difficulty. I'm wondering how the ACD method would of worked on a day like Monday. I have the online book open on my tab and glance through it every once in while to get an idea of what...

ok maybe i was wrong seems like the acd method is something to be used in conjunction with a strategy. I still dont understand what it is but iit could very well be a money management system which is good. I just dont understand why it is so complex and why it needs 50+ pages to be explained. It...

So I have been trading since i mentioned that i started at a prop firm. I had days where I would place 100 orders a day. and days where I would have 1 order a day. Chasing 1-3 cent gains proved to be something I cant really do well. It requires fast movements, fast thinking and semi...

ok its been a while to be honest I have not idea where I left off but probably I was lost. Not that I am not lost now, but my advantage is that I know I'm lost lol Anyways not sure where i left off with the price of gold but we hit a high of 1800 or 1900 I consider it still in trend from...

havent read the whole tread. But if essentials for a system are lacking what are you left with ? Take a simple 2 moving average lines they have clear signals when they cross. There is no thinking in the method. when they cross you reverse your position. Sometimes you take one a loss and some...

i was wondering if it is possible to make a program that works with chart pasterns. for example say some one uses channels or fiboachis or some thing. can a program be made to automatically draw all these. also to buy and sell automatically, and to scan stocks for certain positions in a...

Savings in cash is actually an investment in a currency. i would rather be in gold then cash that has been doing well? instead of having my inter trade "parks"in cash gold is better. that being said it is high and alot of attention needs to be there. As fro the talk about countries buying...

I used a similar strategy, but on the long end . Since I had used the top 10 gainers to look at, and had very little experience at the time. my hats are off to you. I also had the same problem i could only find 5 opportunities a year but profits per trade were high 25-35% a trade.. I think...

and alttrader is chill. he is questioning our approach to learn, and he is seeing that patterns do exist. he is seeing the light and being difficult so as to get more info or ides. It is a good technique that any one that has the TA bug growing deep within them would be likely to...

one can build a model that takes the this 50/50 coin flip to another level increase the odds over 50/50 For example if we have 5 heads and 10 tales we have deviated from the 50-50 ratio by 5 tales. Now i did this with a deck of cards not a coin looking at red and black. at any given...
