    A plug for the 1M Chart - Divergence

    I would encourage you to read thru my journal. I stopped it a while back. Got kind of big 100+ pages, but there is some good info in here including my plan and indicator settings. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=18677 I have tinkered with things a little, but the...

    A plug for the 1M Chart - Divergence

    Again, I will always trust this signal. Extend DT on the 1M finally confirmed by the identical signal on the 3 minute. I would add that I did notice today the power of the 20 period SMA on the 5M chart. It was tough for my lazy old, often ridiculed, laugh at me when I say "hook down"...

    A plug for the 1M Chart - Divergence

    Trade 5 is a classic read for a small reversal on the 1M. This is when you take the second against the trend. This set-up has three consecutive divergent peaks on the Sto and MACD. I will always take this trade. It produced today. Trade 6 is what I referred to in my journal as the "Holy...

    A plug for the 1M Chart - Divergence

    Trade 3 was my only loser. Lost 2 points. Also did a poor job of entry. Trade 4 was a classic. The double top, divergence appeared simultaneously across the 1, 3 and 5M chart and indeed there was a decent move.

    A plug for the 1M Chart - Divergence

    I have gotten a lot of positive comments on my style here, but I have also been "poked fun" at for trading from the 1M chart. I have to say that some of the comments from some of the senior traders here made me re-think myself. Today was a good day for us 1 minuters. I made 7 trades from my...

    The mere fact that you read this and then responded like you did should give you the answer you are looking for. Look deep within.

    Mohan of Daytraders Action / 21st Century Futures

    Okay. All good points. I think Whamo is going to take charge here. I tend to agree in what I have read so far, he is rarely wrong when you read his summaries. Go figure. Every scenario is always covered in some way. I was drawn to this because I am a student of the market. Just a wee pup...

    Need Help Developing a New Trading Style for the ES

    Thanks TS, My goal this week is simply to not overtrade. Biggest issue by far. We'll see. I traded the 5M chart all day on Friday. If you notice, there were no DT or DB set-ups. ES up 40,000 points and I did not make one trade. The one minute chart gave several nice set-ups on Friday...

    divergence in 1min charts

    Manange your stops. Two points are there very often. Then let it go and get some more if available. Get out on a divergence buy signal on the 1M. Clear as mud.

    SOMETIMES IT IS WISER TO JOIN FORCES WITH OPPONENTS THAN TO FIGHT THEM. What a better world this would be if we worked together in harmony toward the achievement of our shared goals instead of engaging in petty disputes and turf battles. When you allow yourself to be dragged into personality...

    Mohan of Daytraders Action / 21st Century Futures

    He predicted a rally, but after an initial drop to a target number of 978.50. Looks like he was right on this day. There was a sell off at open and then down to 978.50 around 10:30, double top back down to 978 and then the rally. Depending on how and when you got long, it would have produced...

    Mohan of Daytraders Action / 21st Century Futures

    On Thursday, it looks like he made a good call. On Friday, it was definitely not "bear ugly". Having a tough time understanding his system at first glance. Friday saw a definite reversal at the 977 ish support area and I can not sure if he instructed a buy at this level or not. It looks to...
