A HA! Au contraire, mon frere! This is another example of reading the driving manual without understanding the material. It is completely FALSE to assume that risk increases the longer you are exposed. If you hold a long trend, are you more at risk for losing on the position if you are long...

You still miss the point. Over the same time span of several days, how many hours are they in over the total hours that were available? In other words, if you were sitting on the bench while the game is being played, you cannot make any points. In a week or so, march madness will kick off. I...

I commend T28 and his crew because he does something the rest of THEM don't do. He shows a way of making money of his own kind heartedness and willingness to share. I understand his defensiveness with Jack as I'm sure I would have been defensive also. HOWEVER, by your own admission, you prove to...

Overtime, your chart will start cleaning up (ie. minimizing lines drawn). What may not be clear for you yet is "what's next". Remember, the key for channels is identifying the cycles (ie. pts 1, 2, 3). Note to self, I have a pt1, next up is my pt 2... Note to self I have pt3!!! NOW HOLD AS...

This is not a game of probability. What I mean by this is that when you swing the bat and hit the trade, your eyes are open and you see the ball. The ball is price. In other words, most traders when they see the ball come to their "sweet" spot (ie. setup), they swing at it. So theirin lies the...

Alrighty... SO since you won't spell out what you did. Let's just start taking a stab in the dark. Take for example rockets... Did you filter out the trades where there were gaps in the data??? If not I'm sure you can take a look and see how a gap up/down would shock the indicator levels...

:cool: Spyder has excellent "summing things up posts". I'll try to find a few. My phone keeps ringing so I couldn't get my DKM post up in any reasonable time...

Very true! FOMC is another mover and shaker. To pick off the low volatility days, it is a matter of noting the volume. When volume (PRV) kicks in, volatility kicks in. In the low range days, for most people anxiety takes over simply because it takes more time for the market to clear the point...

how sweet was that first FTT... "BAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLINNNNNNNN" -Jim Jones

Very nice chart...

So why is our test of the material a Pass and yours a Fail??? A car manual doesn't show you how to apply pressure to the gas pedal. Is the car broken because you read the manual completely and did what it says and yet it did not get you to point B, or would you say that the manual is incomplete...

You know what the gotcha is right? We were trying to fix your backtest because your universe was not VALID by your own definition of what it means to be valid. "Things like qualified universe, 5x+ 20%+ cycling, etc.". Two things you admitted to have not incorporated. In other words, your data...

ok... your post was truly funny (ie. enjoyable). I had to smile. Laughing is good and need not be at anybody.:p

Unfavorable means negative P&L as implied by your comment. I would conclude that positive P&L is favorable, but you state that that is fantasy??? Reality is another qualifier and the input can tweaked to produce less than fantastical results. ok... so we get the prequalifier valid. Please...

So your argument is that you favor your unfavorable results over our favaroble results? The majority of traders have unfavorable results. Nonetheless, this is the reason why people are people. Two people can read the same thing and one can get a favorable result and the other an unfavorable...

go to the chatroom. there are a bunch of guys in their many times...

u da man...

The plaintiffs rests its case. The defendents rests its case.

Mon frere, you did not read furthur down in the thread... eek. It is not intraday... Some industry traders don't even trade that many in a whole year let alone 6 months. Let's check your original post... There weren't any prequalifiers...
