Whats going on with Natgas here? Seems like it cant hold a bid for the life of it...

Nice...even better! FCX now thats an A-up through the pivot

John, that XLF-XLE spread is looking good again today! Especially if the XLF can hold in and make the A-up

Nice, thanks for sharing. That's actually just a spread chart of the XLF-XLE for the day. The bollinger is a part of the indicator so I just keep it up on the chart.

Yea I was referring to the intraday moves, I guess not alot of intraday traders in here.

Does anybody trade any of the big momo names in here? SINA, GMCR, BIDU...some of the names that showed strength. Surprised no one is jumping all over these things...they're like crack :-)

Well yea kinda....using my workspace to do some demo trading and work on TS with strategies etc. You know my situation in general...so not hoping to be here for long seeing as how I can't even trade :-(

Back in the office...got my indis setup on TS and everything! So much more convenient to have everything at the click of a button rather that manually inputting everything :)

Mav looks like you will get that chance to pickup NFLX in the next few days. Pushed through the prior days highs and now made the a -down and hugging the lows. Usually a good sign of an intermediate top

The trade that day would've been being long the strongest stocks of the day, like AAPL(directional). Or with a spread Being long SPY, short FXE...or long a strong sector and short a lagging one.

Thats a really good example...definately saved some money there. We were also at the end of the week(Friday), I'm assumming late week moves tend to fail more often than early cycle(week) moves. Here's a good intraday example that I still remember from last month. on 12/20 we gapped up close...

IMO Half the battle for a developing trader like myself is developing a sound methodology/framework and then understanding how all the pieces fit. This takes a long time and I am still in the process of doing this. I put in 60+ hours a week into my trading and I can tell you there is always...

I think he just called you an old timer John ;)

John, are you not trading much forex anymore? I was watching the "money in motion" show on CNBC and was wondering why you hadn't mentionEd any Franc or Ruble trades lately :)

Gold is testing your level again John. You know what they say about 3 tests of a level...I think we get the break through.

I agree, this is a trading forum. Why is there an argument about semantics. I'll check out the paper when I get a chance. I actually came across that paper a while back on the new Quantpedia website, it talks about a strategy using country ETF's. BTW Good luck on your system.

I guess I should remove myself from the thread until I am doing some legitimate trading. This bug has me prone to some bad instincts!
