thanks for the reference. it seems that cd is no longer available for sale. anyway, sound clips of music or singing gets irritating after hearing it repeatedly. the 5m alert alone comes at me more than 81 times a day including the few cycles in pre-market. i've found nature sounds do not have a...

Oh I don't know, from my viewpoint trading sure feels like a computer game. My keypad is setup as hotkeys for order handling to my broker and unique wave files correspond to order fills and partial fills. I use a left-handed mouse to scroll across my monitors and annotate charts. Annotating...

"Ax" or more often used "the ax" is a term I heard while working in NYC which I took to mean "a person who controls the action", the "main man", so to speak. In daytrading naz stocks during the go-go years, I learned that it referred to the MM a trader had to keep watch for on level II, e.g...

LOL evidently you have little experience with lawyers being questioned under oath. you ever hear the phrase "playing possum"? feigning ignorance ranks right up there with claiming dysmnesia as an excuse for not responding to a disagreeable question.

My setup is a bit different. No TV, no phone, no music, no distractions. There was a device being developed in the '60s by a super secret spy agency that would be quite useful for me now as I sit face to face with my partner the market, but the technology was never perfected and I don't know...

Do your elevators go sideways? quack quack :p

What are you doing trading from across the room? No wonder you can't maintain focus on your monitoring. j/k :D

I dig it.

Making money in the market is a process of extraction that requires the following: 1. Knowledge 2. Skill 3. Experience A "winner", to use the thread originator's term, is a person who has organized and built his mind with the three items to be at an operational level. Although there...

You ever wonder about how the guy telling you trading is a business no different than any other business is himself running a business? Maybe you should wonder what he's SELLING. And that's the whole point. My parents have run businesses, my sister runs a business, I have advised clients in...

I prefer this one:

Could that someone be you?

Probably a side trip for a person interested in a money-making path. Maybe get the book if you're curious. Used to sell for $100. You can't get back the time you spend on it, but I don't know if I can say that all side trips can or should be avoided in trading. No one gets into trading with...

The market: ES Start with 125% of full margin ($5000). Trade the minimum (1 contract). Grow account to $15,000 (200 pts net). No time limit. I call this exercise "triple x". Start with x and get to 3x. Use "rockets", "icebergs", "sct", edges, tea leaves, chicken bones, whatever...

I guess you can't be faulted too much for giving your honest answers. And it's not even curious as to why you would interject here with your ignorance amongst people hard at work. I've posted here long enough to know such things just come with the territory. Good job "pointing out" what I was...

Probably 5. I would not be too quick to put a "FFTT" among the World Trading Federation experiences. I have a hunch that your sequences are lacking. Some suggested questions to ask yourself: 1. What is a FTT anyway? 2. Where does a FTT fit within your sequences? I.e., what precedes...

Very nice. I like how you work, pilgrim.

It would be good to see a chart with your lines drawn.

For comparison.

I also looked at your similar post for Friday and I like how you've organized yourself. I especially like how you are taking notice that your monitoring is not the same while sidelined looking for entry and while in the market looking for exit. Your comments accompanying your actions suggest...
