    The ACD Method

    I NEVER move stops up. Why? My rule was, I would get out when confirmed A down took place. Usually it would be a monthly A down as these were longer term trades. But if you are a 3 to 5 day swing trader then my stop would be on a "confirmed" weekly A down. Not simply taking out the weekly A...

    The ACD Method

    ok thanks Looking at 3,5 and monthly pivots ranges relative to price a likely number line to go in conjunction with these pivots would maybe be a 5 day I think ? The reversal trade mark talks about is real interesting trade to look out for as well, buying when it feel wrong but yet makes...

    The ACD Method

    with respect to reset do you still use +9/-9 ? With a 5 day number line would I not have to use a different threshold? I like pivots both long and short term, however I am struggling with number line however I think its a great way to review price other than a chart to determining a...

    The ACD Method

    The number line rolls on the 5th or 30th or whatever sum you want ? So on the six day if you use 5 day rolling you eliminate the oldest and input latest to get new 5 day..

    The ACD Method

    Thanks... interesting below "The mistake a lot of people make with data is that they assume data is constantly giving useful information. Data by it's definition is noise. It's value only becomes realized when it's meaningful. Therefore, the ACD operator has to become adept at knowing the...

    The ACD Method

    I think I understand, if say 5 day and 30 day were near each other 5 day +9 two days in a row and 30 day was only a +3 you may feel good taking a trade off some signal based on number lines confirming albeit the 5 day actual properly confirming and the 30 day not measuring a real negative number...

    The ACD Method

    Thank you. I will set up a 5 day in conjunction with what I think its a good A' value ( maybe .25-.30 of a 14 period ATR for example) take a look at some pivot ranges for direction and go from there. too many filters an hurt too I think.. your view sounds interesting. I am definite...
