    hey bronks, the markets will always be there...i think, the main reason, why so few succed is just that it needs longterm planning to build up savings on which you can lean on while stepping through a learning curve that could easily last some years...you cant force it...:) i once read a...

    The E-mini Adventures of Brutus

    i did not get that point with the "noise". if you look on a 1min chart, you can find trend + chop, consolidation + continuation pattern, breakouts + trend reversals. its all there as on any other timeframe and there is as much "noise" as on any other timeframe IMO. and it is as hard to trade on...

    The E-mini Adventures of Brutus

    hi cta trader, in general i agree with this...but i believe that the markets are "fractal", means that several tradable pattern that occur in market motion occur and are tradable in every timeframe...if you trade, lets say bull- and bearflags on 1min, its the same as to trade them on 60min or...

    Street Smarts

    the book just describes some setups based on pattern related to 3 elementary situations: tests, retracements and (3. i forgot) if you can afford the time, scan trough the "educational chart" material, posted on the LBR site, you can find there real examples that illustrate some of the main...

    The E-mini Adventures of Brutus

    cta trader, ok, i see. but i am posting comments on someone who is trying to trade 1 contract NQ with a risk of 4-5 pionts (this may appear plain stupid in your eyes ?)...so he has to learn how to trade in a 1-3min timeframe in relation to 5min + 15min...every timeframe higher than this is...

    The E-mini Adventures of Brutus

    hi brutus, what you call "trade trend reversal" is nothing different then try to pick a top or bottom and hope it will work out as a trend reversal...if you compare top or bottom picking with trading retracements or continuation patterns, you will find something simple: on top or bottom...

    E-mini Rookie Trading Journal

    so your gains on the 80% must be too small or your losses on the 20% must be too big...i think its the first one ? also my problem, the classic "cutting (some) winners short". i think the critical piont of steping out of the break-even zone is to capitalize on the few big winners, that you hit...

    patterns

    1 of my favorite pattern: condition: 5min is trending. lets say uptrend. 5min is starting pullback in the direction of 20ema. i then look for a 3 wave down or ABC pattern on 1min inside of this 5min pullback. after the 3 wave down it retrace to test the last high. :) trading

    hey bronks, thats a good point. i started out 6 month ago. i was thinking that i would need 3 month to work it out (had some background in trading stocks). now im thinking that it could easy take 1 year or more to get to an level, where you are able to pull out some constant profit...im stuck in...

    The E-mini Adventures of Brutus

    hi brutus, great that you have another 10k on the sideline :) with a risk of 0,5% you can trade very relaxed. there is plenty of time to apply some position sizing later on. the description of your trades sounds VERY discretionary. did you relate to any indicator or pattern ? :) trading
