Hi, yea good idea day rading not a great means for a return seems like many are in between-9/+9 everything from indicies to commodities including metals softs etc

Looked at fisher 30 day cum. number line, not one is nearing+/-9 I assume you have not taken any trades recently ? I will look into the Vol. line once better handle on calculating he number line, thanks

Oh wow, nice. I have a script for opening range however I need practice determining or assigning values... need to find out more about Mav vol. number see what that s all about too

I understand, just want to learn how many people actually track more than say 12 stocks currency etc; take a little effort is all to over each day and make sure you assign correctly

Thanks so each individual commodity or stock you have to load into a chart and visually look at OR and determine if made A' up or down or none at all imagine 20 stocks and maybe 5 commodities ? Not an issue, just want to learn if anyone automated this process and what platform ? Thanks

do you always use about a 35 delta 60 days out or look at different strikes and price levels and then back into delta (soft delta is 35 ?) soft to me would be a .15 or lower .... Thanks

Thank you. I agree with what you say. Its all about the leverage and risk management. Lose small win large you can have a 50/50 or worse "entry" and you can withstand the draw down and look for next trade. I find the pivots most useful.... I just beginning to learn more about number lines...

Thanks. I trade some energy commodities just looking for a good means to evaluate risk and take/manage risk. Not sure why you suggest stocks over any commodity Futures ? Have to take and adjust risk best you can in both, maybe people under estimate what a true commodity can do in terms of move...

Thanks. so I suspect with respect to ACD your not looking at OR breakouts etc but rather longer term pivots in conjunction with number lines. May I ask how is it going, have your tried studied other means to put on take off risk in the futures markets before ?

Thanks. Do you stick with prompt month options, or venture on on curve ?

Thought so, but wanted to be sure. How do you deal with pumped up Volatility, say you go long ITM and market moves quick up, sure you get paid, market moves up slow you get paid but much less as volatility compresses, or market just comes off slow vol compresses and you lose on premium as...

Thnx define hard delta and soft ? I use OTM spreads to some degree

Anyone using options when getting information buy/sell from ACD rather than underlying itself ? is there a post in these pages that goes off into another thread or anything .... thanks

I did not sell the exact top either it was not pretty

Hi Last I saw here they "number line" was at a "round pretty" number and there were "warnings" now everything a go ?

Why do you want to learn this contract- takes a certain "money" to trade it, are you planning working at a power company or start up or something ? There are few "jobs" in this area of expertise I know:) Nat Gas has the liquidity, power more complex and not paid out as well. check ...

right, but.... anyone have that ability ? Even a market maker may have trouble "making" money in low volatility environment

Glad you said this. I have found same, just can't lay the same parameters on each commodity or instrument, agree. I also find that volatility really allows for a few "systems" to perform well , or at least mine:)

Interesting. I think I understand. I do agree with simple, as soon as the algo gets too complex I find myself "curve fitting" hope your on to a nice way of trading the particular market. What is your opinion regarding applying same parameters to many commodities or at least electronic liquid ones ?
