    Anyone using indicators successfully for day trading?

    It is a waste of time in arguing whether indicators work or Not work, and majorly there are three camps: 1) That didn't work: tons of people are just frustrated because they thought they spent years and they beat their brains out working on single, double, group of indicators in combination...

    Barry Taylor, emini-watch.com and his "BETTER INDICATORS"

    I never used Barry Taylor's "Better Indicators", but years ago when I actively followed Tradestation Forum I saw some excellent indicators similar to the "Better Indicators". I don't recall exactly what they were called, and there were some other commercial available similar indicators of this...

    There are many much better indicators of these kinds for free if you work hard to search and test them, try Tradestaion Forum and many other sites.

    My trades

    As many people said before the ET is mainly for entertainment only, as many good threads were eventually ruined, and sooner or later this would probably face the same fate. Time to have some more tea and watch some more Neflix on such a nice Friday night.

    My trades

    I don't think OI faked his prices. It is a sarcastic question to des. You really think you can verify every price entry and exits that were posted on ET?

    My trades

    Why do you care if he faked entry or exit prices? He is smart so he just simply ignores your whining.

    Zuckerberg: Pledged $3bn to “cure, prevent or manage” all disease by the end of the century

    IN a thousand years, it is still impossible to cure and prevent all diseases; putting in another 3000 billion in research, scientists still can't fully understand the mechanisms and complexity of all the disease. "Manage", on the other hand, it is only a phony "PC" buzzword. Just a few...

    Intraday does not make sense.

    Intraday trading benefits: 1) You can sleep sound without worrying either the market is going to crash (if you are long) or rally huge (if you are short) overnight; 2) You can place huge bet (like 100 car of ES) as you watch them closely and can exit instantly when the trade hits your profit...

    what are your thoughts on indicators that claim to call tops and bottoms?

    Those that don't change the painted dots are lagging for sure, and they will be painted after a few bars, and most of the time it is already too late to enter or exit the trades. Don't take my words for it, try them all out on demo (there are many of them, some are free). But there are better...

    what are your thoughts on indicators that claim to call tops and bottoms?

    There are a lot of these kinds of DOTS indicators commercially available in the market for a long long time already. Most of them are after fact indicators, meaning they only paint the dots after a certain period of time; and some claimed to be real time, but the paint dots would disappear when...

    How do successful option traders do it?

    You suggested he was faking it and post hindsight profits without real trades. I can tell you that I see many people and tons of hindsight trades on ET, but this is not. Faking on ES or Forex trades with hindsight profits would be much easier. I can tell from the dynamics and flow of his trades...

    How do successful option traders do it?

    For people posting ES or index future scalping trades, you can try to match the time stamp, but not in this case. He basically just present summaries of his trades after facts, so either you believe him or not, there is no way you can really verify them. I trust him based on my judgement from my...

    How do successful option traders do it?

    Did you read through his journal? At least read from page 45 to page 55, from #447 ($18K to start with) to #549 ($58.4K), that is $40K within a month. Actually he started with only 2K to reach about $160K in about 9 month. Incredible, ah?

    From $5000 to Trading for a Living. Is it possible to?

    https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/my-trades.315067/ So this guy traded from $2000 to more than $100,000 in about 6 months, if you were as good as him, then $5000 should be $250,000 in half year, that should make you a comfortable living. But again, most of people would lose $5000 in a...

    my personal thoughts after 20 years of trading

    Market provides astronomical amount of information on pricing movement, the art or science of building a wining strategy is to manipulate/interpolate/filter these information to extract the hidden signals for entry and exit, and once you are successful at that, trading is an exciting business...
