Michael Hawaii? I guess that makes sense it being closer to you. Enjoy the sun mon, best Xmas to you and family.

Hi Michael This being week before Xmas I didn´t expect any trade at all this week. But managed to catch a trend and cleared a net of $148 which was a return of 10% of capital invested in the trade. It was very painful slow trading and watching small increments of 10 cent moves for two...

Michael I am using the same stuff as I have already sent you. It is a work in progress. Evolving as I go along. I'm currently using Big Charts to trade with. I also use a Point and Figure chart to see where I am in the sequence and for support and resistance levels. The P & F chart is...

Well this past week was my first real test. My $5000 account is up 9%. There hasn't been any trading the last three days of the week, as there was no volatility. Guess the crowd have gone traveling on holidays?

Michael Well the sum for this past week, was using a $5000 account, I had a return of + 7%. Basically my first real week using the new methodology and getting rid of my hangups with the credit spread trading.

Michael thanks for the stuff on those credit spread trades. I´ll see if I can find the time to work them out theoretically soon. The premiums kind of surprised me, as they are not what I envisioned. I´ll have to figure out what he is doing...

Michael You want to send me the particular spread you got anyway? I´m curious.

Michael Yes I did sign up for the free trial but have heard nothing since.

Michael We have an overhead resistance level and I was thinking this should be a time when Brad would send a recommendation. We are bucking up against it. I can´t see a trade by his criteria though as to premium prices. So I´m surprised you got a trade. What is it? With only a week...

Michael No I have nothing from Brad. What was the latest you got today? I was looking carefully at how it works in hindsight. While he tries to minimize losses by rollovers, the rollovers still lose money. What I was noticing was the zero months. These are when he does not trade. So...

Michael Still nothing from Brad on a monthly trade. You get anything? I don´t see any market action anyway to justify it. I guess that is why some months have 0 on them, when he doesn´t trade. I had wondered about that, but now it makes sense. Not every month you can get a trade by...

What a bollocks of a morning. I was fighting the trend apparently and short, in puts. When Iwent to close it, my wife was in the trading room, bugging me about things and I closed the trade in the weeklies instead of the monthlies. Ended up later after she had gone, in sorting it out and...

Elite Think There is another one called BATS EXCHANGE but it only has stocks. Though I see SPY listed. Tried it yesterday on INTC but that stock didn´t seem to move much. I was really looking for a chart I had 25 years ago that had by the minute OEX index movement. I'll look again to...

Elite Think I looked back 5 years and it seemed to trade in a range. No big moves expected for December? This is the month for slack activity mostly retail small traders. All the big boys have finished for the year. Adjusted their portfolios and funds and waiting for January.

I need real time OEX url for rapid data. Does anybody use it. I used to have this 25 years ago, but no longer have the url. Don't even see it anywhere? I have this OPENING GAP trade that works a third of the time. But my data is 20 minutes or more late using Big Charts and I need to be...

Michael I'm reviewing how I did credit spreads. I was compounding. A sort of all or nothing type mental attitude. After reading some of the English sites, I refreshed my memory and forgotten lessons. Those I´ve been ignoring. BRAD has the best detail for monthly credit spread trading...

donahuedc I had a look. I´m not sure spread betting in the UK sense is the same as credit spreads? I took a look online,but it more seems to refer to directional trades and the standard emotional rules for betting direction. At least the site I went to. There was some good learner...

Tell me more about the UK spread betting setup please. Where and how it works if you would? It sounds like an interesting way to go.
