Re: Jacks post quoted above. I have seen him mention the "17 leading indicators" a number of times. Can anyone list them? All I can come up with is twelve. Second question: what is the highest profit lowest risk trades he speaks of? My guess would be dominant traverses in a fast paced market.

I have no doubt that doing prv manually is fine as Jack has done it for years but I cannot count the times that maks tool has alerted me to something going on which I might not have noticed ordinarily. Afternoon breakouts for one.

I just got a pm telling me that I left some personal info on the xl app. PLease do not download it. I apologize profusely if I caused Steves problem. Moderator please delete that post asap.

Cant imagine why that would screw up your IB account. The worse that could happen if something is not correct is that the excel wouldnt function.

Your quite welcome but all thanks go to Mak. Evidently you know whats required but I neglected to mention for those not familiar with it that you do have to have IBs api software and tws configured correctly.

I think hes talking about the big contract .

This guy does an opening range breakout using a 3 minute opening range. He waits for the first three minute bar on ER2 to complete then goes with whichever way it breaks from there. He seems to do pretty well with it. http://www.tradersparadise.blogspot.com/

Im beginning to wonder about you mate. I dont know all the facts but I kind of think a 70+man living with a 40+ woman is not something to be ashamed of.

This a bit off topic at this point but I thought maybe someone here could help me that is proficient with Excel. I want to create a running histogram of the spread between YM and INDU similiar to the one some of you Tradestation users have. I am trying to learn excel and I dont think this should...

Started happy hour a little early didnt we?

I stopped trying to pick tops and bottoms only after getting burned countless times. The stop is clear and your risk well defined but the problem is you have no idea what reward your playing for.

You were lucky you got fills.

This is a very intersting area and one that comes up all the time. Here is how I see it.(coarse method) Coming in with a cushion makes a lot of difference.

Good posts mak. We will miss a lot of boats in our careers.

Very interesting stuff. Do you consider any particular instrument to be the best indicator short term? I notice your chart is the 5year.

Did you take that trade?
