    Many times, after a trend day, a range day follows and smaller targets with shorter time frames works better.

    Online Gambling Ban Passed

    Those guys leaving the workforce to play poker....perhaps they've seen their future being shipped to India, China, South America, etc. American companies have zero loyalty or obligation to employ American workers, why shouldn't a guy say to hell with them. I'm going to leave them on my...

    For me, the emotional aspect of trading is by far the hardest part of trading consistently. I think this is true for almost all. Having said that, and given my current situation in the markets, I'd try: Becoming a Disciplined Trader: Techniques for achieving peak trading performance ~ Ari...

    Scottrade charts dont work like they should

    Looks like a data error, not a performance issue with the charting software. Having that extreme tick has re-scaled the chart. See if you can get at the data and change it manually to match the pricing reality.

    Porgie, you speak in riddles and I like your advice. I always find myself looking for the hidden meaning in what you say. Endless source of fascination and sometimes frustration for me. I do have a question. You have mentioned that only family members and one other you trust are privy to...

    If I interpreted 4re's method correctly, you should only move that stop to 1 point if the momentum gets flaky and looks like it's hesitating, pulling back. This is a discretionary move and requires experience and vigilence to nail it. To me, it's the hardest part of the system. Maybe it's...

    It's not uncommon to have a rangy day after a nice upthrust or two.

    I find myself with a new motto...."Don't be in such a hurry to lose your money." It's helped me to be patient.

    CO, I know what you mean. It's like dying the death of a thousand cuts. One of the things I'm looking at with S/R is observing the position of stochastics once the S/R area is approached. Odds seem to be better if you buy when stochs are something less than overbought and sell when stochs...

    Getting my act together

    Gutsy, I'm rooting for you here. I'm also rooting for myself as I share some similarities with your plight. Family member health issues, drastically reduced income and scared money. Not sure if it will help, but I'm compelled to try and offer my observations. You must change your...

    go Gary go..... I went for it too, except I made a boneheaded mistake and hit the sell button instead of buy. Bailed asap with a -.75. Can't believe I did that.

    Give it a little time and wait for it to become oversold. Could be another nice setup coming.

    I went long at 39.25 and went for 1.25. Should've stayed with it a bit longer given the volume, but it's not my goal right now. I'm trying to get 2 weeks of solid, disciplined, profitable trading on the sim. So far, I took 8 points on YM yesterday and since ECBOT is down this morning...
