Andy, How do you handle it when a pair goes from contango to backwardation, or visa versa? I was trying to time my entry with crude oil, as it was in a state of backwardation. However, just as I'm entering my position, it flipped to contango. What was a very good entry under backwardation...

Thanks lindq, but it does not seem that linnsoft provides automated strategy trading...

I guess that I can sign-up for Tradestation, as they have "easy language" for automated trading. However, I would prefer to trade with Interactive Brokers. walt

I would expect reasonable to be somewhere between $500 - $1,000. I've receied two quotes in that range. Also, I dont' think e-signal would help my cause, as I wish to automate a semi-martingale stop & reverse in the forex, equity, and futures markets. Walt

Thanks for the referral Craig... although I'm still willing to pay someone to set the program for me, as long as the cost is reasonable... Walt

I'm willing to pay to have an API coding of a strategy that can be applied to the currency, futures or equity markets. I use interactive brokers; however, I guess it can be applicable to any platform. In a nutshell, it's a semi-martingale "stop & reverse" strategy. I would want to enter...

You're right... I neglected to mention that...

DMO, Aren't you really talking about an Iron Condor??? Short near/at the money and long on the wings out of the money... Is there a better position strategy than the Iron Condor in light of your assertion? Thanks, Walt

Maverick, Do you still assert that this methodology is "The Perfect Option position"? If recall correctly, you combined a butterfly with a backspread. Have you refined or modified your position? Would you say this is as "good" as it gets regarding a safe and profitable strategy? thanks...

yup...

This has MM, which controls against a "blow up". This is not a true martingle. Theoretically, if you have an infinite amount of consecutive losses with ANY SYSTEM, it's doomed to fail. The edge is the trend catching concept... If one desires, this can be combined with many other "entry...

That's wrong... the cumulative effect of 7 consecutive loses would result in a loss of $2600. Each independent loss is a fraction of the winning amount. My assumptions are based upon the laws of averages and probability. Regardless of the system, past performance is no guarantee of future...

you can choose any of the 3 major opening times: New York, Tokyo, or London. However, there are a myriad of other indicators to use in an attempt to try and predict a trend. The flexibility of this system is that it is not doomed if your indicator or market time was wrong.

Epiphany & Traderzones, I respectfully disagree with your position and assumptions. I am not a newbie, as I've been trading for over five years. Moreover, Don Bright's Open Order strategy is based upon trying to align oneself with the specialists at market open while placing orders for...

I've been testing this strategy, in one variation or another as I try to perfect upon MM and probability, since last year. Although my max gain, whether I close on the 1st or the 7th sequence, is a little more than $1k per intraday trade, one can enter into multiple trades during the day...

If I lose on all 7 sequences, which is the Worst Case scenario, while trading a stock worth $135 having an ATR of about 2, my max loss is about $2600.

I'd like to introduce a strategy that I've had success with in the forex market. I received the essence of this strategy from another individual to whom I'm very grateful. Thus, I'm willing to pass this blessing on... This strategy is based upon the premise that one does not KNOW where the...

Don, I'm interested in trading an intraday "stop & reverse trend" strategy with your firm. Would I be able to incorporate this strategy without going through your camp or the 3 day seminar? Thanks, Walt

For the love, providence and longsuffering of Christ, may we all take time to be thankful...
