    CL Redux

    Well, it seems to be rallying right now, as the 87.85 support held its ground. If I was going to sell the rally, I would wait for confirmation with a short 5 min bar Walt

    CL Redux

    I think the CL market is approaching its support price, which is around 87.85... If it breaks through the support, I believe it could drop to 87.00 any thoughts... Walt

    CL Redux

    You guys are simply hilarious :p Picaso's & Nodoji's levity may be worth as much as their trading insights. Please keep the humor coming... btw, it seems that the EUR and CL are diverging today... Considering that they're aout 80% correlated, perhaps this would be an ideal time to...

    Grinding it out, day after day

    I understand the concepts of OPG & RTM basket trading relative to std dev; however, what I don't comprehend is the appropriate setups for creating such an equity curve. Many folks have tried and failed miserably with OPG and RTM from 1 or 2 std dev. Therefore, it isn't the strategies that...

    Working on Consistent Profitability

    Perhaps a backtesting of the trades taken this year, comparing all in/all out to scale-out. This comparison would enable you to see the impact on your P/L with each methodology. Needless to say, manually backtesting it would be extremely labor intensive. However, I believe there are programs...

    Working on Consistent Profitability

    thanks Nodoji.... I appreciate the feedback Walt EDIT: btw... have you modified the "move stop to b/e" plan, as I believe it was about 10 cents. Is that correct? thanks again...:)

    Any pure mechnical traders or system traders?

    The easiest method would be to backtest the VIX... I'm sorry, but for clarity sake, you are indeed profitable, right? I understand that your profit is not as much as you expect, correct? Walt

    Working on Consistent Profitability

    Simply amazing... despite the chop, you had 3 winners & only 1 loser. And I'm almost sure that the size of the avg. winner was larger than the size of the avg loser. My set-ups fall into one of the following categories: 1) trend trades at the break of support or resistance levels; 2) trend...

    Any pure mechnical traders or system traders?

    Please correct me if I'm wrong; however, your problem is not that you are losing with your strategy, but that it's not as profitable as you expect. Is that right? If so, that's o.k. You're on the right track. Test the Implied Volatility of your live trades with that of your backtested...
