I had a real interest in what might have happened today, also. I went to Trading from Main Street this evening and found this: Brandon's Setups: Intraday Charts: - 120, 60, 30, 15, 5, 2 minute charts - Bar charts - 20 exponential moving average (ema) - 50 sma used only on 60 minute...

Time to go. Good night. Bruce

Oh, you didn't. But I was thanking Daal for posting the Tharp book, anyway. Tharp has admitted he is no trader. Just because someone is no trader doesn't mean the person is of no value, however. Bruce

Thanks. Bruce:)

A. If Brandon doesn't owe Optional anything then he shouldn't protest Optional's attitude either. B. I didn't look at the other threads because I am only concerned with this thread and in the coming week's performance. I have been in the chatroom when both were there, so I do have a sort...

Until he gets an answer. I haven't looked at the other threads. But there has been ample opportunity here to answer. If all this is of no concern to Brandon, then, he shouldn't be kicking when someone raises a protest. That is to say, if he is above board with his practices then he should...

So, you are standing on the shoulders of giants, eh? That sounds like a great way to learn how to trade! Thanks for answering my questions. Bruce

Have you yourself been able to trade something other than money to your mentor for the experience? If your mentor expects money in return for experince then what do you, the student, have to offer the mentor besides? Do you have some skillset the mentor can profitably learn? I'm interested...

The question then becomes, if Brandon makes this kind of claim, can he verify it? Can he prove that "many" of today's "most successful traders" have been mentored by Brandon? If he can't verify it, then the claim is relegated to speculation, and in this context is used to hype his paid service...

Thanks for the clarification. I haven't ever looked at the tick in isolation, so can't speak to your assertion directly. AAA has mentioned he has noticed greater volatility in the tick indicator. Perhaps, this is a result of decimalization. Gann spoke of a roughly 50% correlation between the...

Yes, I've studied it and developed some spreadsheets. The thing about it is, you have to have the attitude the market is your opponent. I've probably not implemented it as a professional would, though. I use a probabilistic approach to establishing my bias for the day. One chatroom...

Your statement is confusing to me. If it takes less money to move the $TICK, then for appreciable index movement to occur, wouldn't the $TICK have to move more to get the index to respond? If this is the case, then the $TICK is just as effective as it always was but because of decimalization...

I've read some good things about Tuscon Capital, fyi. Bruce

Gordo, I would say that your trading history as revealed in your thousands of posts is a statistically significant measure that you will continue to lose your ass and need to get a life. --TruthTeller Good entries, patient exits, strict discipline on stops, keep costs down, go both long and...

A picture is worth a thousand words, so they say. Bruce

One of the things I found difficult when trading equities was defining my exit. Lot size, price, and momentum of the tradable were all factors I wanted to account for when deciding my exit. I developed this spreadsheet for both long and short entries and would like to share it...

This was indeed unfortunate, OHLC. I had never considered your nationality to be an obstruction to conversation. However, I'm not so good at other languages, so I'm glad you have the capacity for learning them. Bruce
