To answer the obvious question, "Sell Wednesday" was a net loser by $1151 in 2007. One of my favorite occupations years ago was deconstructing and simplifying SCT and testing the bits and pieces of it separately. That effort enormously enhanced my coding skill, but not, alas, my account balance...

I recall fondly that when I began backtesting about eight years ago I discovered some really nifty systems. One of my favorites was "Buy Wednesday". It tested with tradeable positive expectation then, and I even traded it a bit. Cognoscenti of backtesting will perhaps understand why. In this...

The decorative doctor is trading an extreme form of SCT wherein he scalps inside long one minute bars for ticks. In response to his need for a low-anxiety system that will have him in the market no more than 30 seconds, I developed several methods for determining the prabable extension of a...

Those of you who frequent the more sinister threads on ET have already seen teaser references to a new strategy trading tool called Liberace levels. I emphasize that this is not TA, it is voudoun. But it is far less absurd than some approaches here based on imaginary events which pass for...

Do I take it then that you think it is a joke at Proffy's expense? Be careful, it's a trick question.

OK, I'm going to give you knuckleheads one more chance to determine if this is a joke thread or the revelation of a powerful analysis tool. Attached is today's one-minute EquiPrice chart for NQ. Do you notice anything about midday? Or near the close? Like maybe the idea was to generate as much...

Nkhoi, one can always count on you for an intelligent response to a stupid thread. However, I fear you have legitimized it by your participation. Now everyone will think it is serious. Prolume is my version of what you posted. See the bottom pane on the attachment.

It is obvious from the underwhelming response that ET is not ready for enervation in strategy trading. So I will say no more, and leave you with this example. At 19:25 PT tonight (see the price spike on the far right), the NQ spread widened to 1.75 points ("Now put in BOTH hands. Now try to...

Inspired by the sheer genius of ProfLogic's EquiVolume, and ever mindful that there is a subculture on ET that thinks volume is more important than price, I am introducing today EquiPrice charting! The attachment shows a snippet from NQ today for an EquiPrice increment of 5 NQ points, with...

Damn you, Cokie! Why do you have to get us all riled up? Here is the gist of my healing message to BM and ST, proving how much I love them both and want to see SCT improved. "The indicator PROLUME was invented specifically to resolve the PRV issue causing this SCT schism. The attachment...

Anything for a laugh. Which instrument would you like it charted for, and in what currency? USD, gold, and oil are my default currencies.

At the risk of tarnishing my considerable reputation on ET as a peerless analyst, I am going to assert (and leave it as an exercise for ET stoonts to prove) that turning points exhibit outsized PROLUME. Sort of a market boner, as it were.

Acronymous, your understanding brings tears to my eyes. The PROLUME reading for yesterday's NQ reinforces the subjective impression while trading it that the price action was all bullshit. Although the decline in VOLATAILITY was gratifying, the weak ULTINDICATOR reading tells all.

Thank you for your support, acco-lites. EasySignal got its shit together overnight (needed some sleep?), so I can now reveal the DAILY PROLUME undicator. Why do I call this class of tool an undicator? Because in my youth, when I first got started with TA (I was 54), I observed that all...

Finaaly! I experience the thrill Jack has of finding the perfect acco-lites!

You GET it, Anonymous Acronymous! If EasySignal's NQ #F weren't fucked up tonight, I would post an unsample of the inutility of my new undicator. In all truth, you will find it underwhelming. I use it to great effect to avoid undertrading.

Thank you, Opiumeater. And it's an UNdicator, thank you! You can never have too many squiggly lines, as eventually price will become distracted and trip over one. Encouraged by the lack of response, I will tomorrow introduce DAILY PROLUME, which is an immensely useful tool for unindicating...

Following hot on the heels of Ultindicator, Ultosculator and Volataility, we are pleased to introduce the inaugural study in a new class of tools called Undicators. We begin with PROLUME, which see below in the bottom pane of the chart. When PROLUME is predominantly green, you should be long...

Yeah, but not new to posting. Why do these (or this) idiots follow me around and trash my serious threads? Are they getting tired of hair-assing Jack? Or frustrated because he won't come out and play? Pour continuer, here is a term unique to NQ trading. It seems that every time I decide at...

You can look it up, but the simplest way, sufficiently accurate, is to assume that the volume for a green bar was all market longs and the volume for a red bar was all market shorts. You multiply the volume by the average of the high and the low, applying the appropriate sign for the bar color...
