Here are my futures biases for tomorrow, October 24 A "1" means bullish bias. A "-1" means bearish bias. The total is the sum of biases. A positive sum will be long (L) bias. A negative sum will be a short (S) bias. A sum of zero will be a neutral (0) bias.

A 15 minute audio interview of me is begin rerun this weekend. I explain many of my trading philosophies, and what goes into building good systems. It's featured on the home page. http://www.tigersharktrading.com/

We return to ultra-simplicity personified with the fifth either-or indicator. Instead of comparing a close to closing averages, we key it off high-low averages—in this case, incorporating 15 days. ((average(high,15))+(average(low,15))/2). This slight variation produces some interesting...

LondonUsTrader wrote a good discretionary trader is the king of the hill--no question. mechanical traders in my book have acknowledged that. again though, how many of us are born that way? that's pretty much the reality--you're born into that rarified elite or you're not. i know many...

Here are my futures biases for tomorrow, October 21 A "1" means bullish bias. A "-1" means bearish bias. The total is the sum of biases. A positive sum will be long (L) bias. A negative sum will be a short (S) bias. A sum of zero will be a neutral (0) bias.

The fourth component of our daily biases is sort of a compound idea. Or maybe it’s actually just a single concept affirming something my partner is always voicing. If a signal isn’t strong enough to meet a buy criterion or it stops meeting the condition, thereby signaling a sell exit...

setharb wrote no, they're just static daily indicators. you had an opportunity to take profit intraday (not on any indicators i was presenting admittedly) --you would have certainly had pain had you held them all day. but that's just one for the "L" column. oct 20 suggests another sell...

Here are my futures biases for tomorrow, October 20 A "1" means bullish bias. A "-1" means bearish bias. The total is the sum of biases. A positive sum will be long (L) bias. A negative sum will be a short (S) bias. A sum of zero will be a neutral (0) bias.

Today, we’ll look at results of the order of highest-lowest close of the last 50 day indicator. If the lowest close of the last 50 days is more recent than the highest, that’s a buy bias and vice versa. Link 1 shows the S&P. Table 1 shows our other financials. Again, this is five years...

bnun12 said no. we're not doing either/or indicators here. (which wouldn't fit as symetrical opposities in any case). we're trying to act off a bunched up series of lows--(20 percent or less of the entire range) or bunched up highs ( same).

brun12 wrote thanks back at you brun. 6. the three indexes signaled cap sells for today meaning the Oct 17 high and close were both higher than the two days surrounding it. Also the oct 17 high was higher then the previous three days' highs. (think of that as a qualifier that tends to keep...

Here are my futures biases for tomorrow, October 19. A "1" means bullish bias. A "-1" means bearish bias. The total is the sum of biases. A positive sum will be long (L) bias. A negative sum will be a short (S) bias. A sum of zero will be a neutral (0) bias.

Today, I’m examining performance summaries of the simple average idea. Specifically, if your close was higher than the 40 day average close, buy and if lower, sell short. Link one is a performance summary in the full sized S&P. The table shows results in our remaining targeted eight...

sunnyskies wrote first part--hard to answer because it was kind of like addiction recovery--lapses here and there. best answer is my partnership started in 1997. those accounts are totally mechanical and account for 99.9 percent of my activity since. i think your second question...

Here are my futures biases for tomorrow, October 18. A "1" means bullish bias. A "-1" means bearish bias. The total is the sum of biases. A positive sum will be long (L) bias. A negative sum will be a short (S) bias. A sum of zero will be a neutral (0) bias.

Here's the full sized Nasdaq from Trade Station.

Here's a performance report of how the 2-5 indicator performed in the full sized S&P over the last five years. I use full sized for most inter day studies strictly for logistical reasons: Trade Station data is more extensive in the full sized. The market should be more or less interchangeable...
