Ivob, I agree that the exits are the real issue. Pulling the trigger gets all the press, but getting out with a profit is the real tough part. Take the 9:40 bar. I have that as an FTT of a down channel. Whether I entered as soon as I determined it to bean FTT or when the 9:45 bar formed...

Life is so sweet when I only monitor and annotate. Unfortunately not actually trying to execute the formations I annotate- where my big problem lies- doesn't really get me any closer to trading nirvana. But at the moment, life is much less stressful :)

brutal...brutal...freakin brutal day. For me anyway :( Also, can someone explain what the 11:35 bar was. Volume levels sure make it look like a flaw to moi.

You calculate the offset by subtracting the the value of the cash Dow at its close from the value of the YM at the 15:58 bar close. The resulting value may have to be adjusted further in order to achieve a true "zeroing out" of the S/S. There is more detailed information on this process in...

Spyder, Thanks as usual for taking the time to review and answer questions. The following are my responses / thinking during each issue raised. 1. I keep thinking flaws are a single bar phenomenon. The fact that the 10:30 bar had dec. black lead me to think we were in a retrace to the...

Problems so far today #1 got me b/c the 10:30 bar retraced up after what I thot was a dbl. top followed by a dip. #2 confused me b/c I thought we had a dbl. bottom and i anticipated a move outside my red channels. Didn't happen :(

The following questions and observations regarding todays chart 7-19-07. 1. Why isn't 10:25 ES bar an FTT? 2. Why did Spyder use the 10:40 (Flaw) bar as a Pt1? 3. Isn't the volume too low (relatively speaking) on the 11:20 bar to consider Price formin an FTT in real time? 4. If the...

:D

I am using Camtaisa to record the daily chart activity. I use two screens, but I can only seem to record one. Does anyone know how I can record both screens using Camtasia?

The middle of the day was tough even for just annotating and monitoring. I probably go on for quite a while discussing this time period. The other areas that I had difficulty are labeled #1, #2 and #3. #1 Confused me because it seemed we had an Even Harmonic formation that wud continue the up...

How?

Bundlemaker, In addition to the +2/-2 lines I also have one at zero and +5/-5 so as to have a better point of reference when I glance at the S/S. I want to add additional lines at +3/-3 to capitalize on what Pr0crast posted in regards to TL alerts. I can add as many lines as I want in the...

I have five horizontal lines on my STR/SQU. I cannot set any more. Does anyone else have this problem as well? I find the available offering of STR/SQU from QT to be of little value as it they have coded it, but it would be nice to maximize whatever benefits it does provide.

8833, I am not sure exactly what is meant by the "Volume part of the Gaussian", but I do find the statement about sentiment change correct. This doesn't seem to be a rule but it is discussed throughout the Journal and it is my understanding that Volume acting this way does also indicate what...

The answers that are posed on the chart will be answered with more study and experience. The yellow circled area did pose some problems for me. Overall this has been a remarkable week for illumination :)

Can anyone give insight as to the 14:45 and 14:50 bars on ES. Maybe I have my nose smashed up against the screen so I can't see the big picture, but these two bars have decreasing volume in an operating uptrend. In other words the channel drawn seems to adequately accommodate the Price action...

Thanks for the effort B.

There has to be some kind of prize to understand this thing. If anyone cares to respond to the questions I would much appreciate it. -guava
