From yesterday

Bummer. I was hoping the problem not exclusively mine. Here is a screen shot from today's YM. Basically once the tick stream starts again, QT catches up with a big volume bar for all the volume it missed and zero volume for the ticks missed. I realize the volume was extraordinary today...

I wanted to see if anyone has noticed a issue with using IB feed for T&S and Tick charts compared to a feed that gives every tick. I have been using MB Trading for my T&S and Tick charts but the feed keeps freezing for extended periods.

Spy, In the chart attached, I have circled an even harmonic which would mean continuation. At what point would one have been able to decide it was change using the ES and YM? I had reversed short on the 9:34 YM bar when it looked like the YM was not going to head higher and what looked...

Interesting idea.

Here is what I mean. From today's video

LOL. That was a mistake. The green channel was actually steeper originally, its point 3 was the 2:35 bar. I re-adjusted the pt 3 to the 3:50 bar but forgot to remove the line from the previous pt 2. Thanks for bringing that to my attention.

Todays chart. YM to follow

Here is the Bouncing ball PRV code I use for Amibroker. It is a modified version of the code mischief posted a while back. The prv is not calculated for the first 10 seconds of each bar. Also there is a small bug, the prv does not work on the first ES bar of the day. I have not spend...

Spy, How would you interpret the gaussians in the area pointed out by the green and the pink arrows? I was trying to determine what was happening inside the the bar i.e. is it going to continue going down. It dropped on increasing red, then price stayed neutral on about the same volume...

I went over Friday's chart and and I highlighted what I consider FBO of formations. I got 8 but 7 is more accurate since the 12:55 bar was very low volume. What was different is I highlighted (purple) 6 FBO's that went in the opposite direction of the FBO and 2 (pink) that went back in the...

I don't really trade off all the pennants. In both those trades, I was thinking pt3 up channels resulting in BO of the down channel. In the first snippet, a successful break of the the ES FBP would have given a Pt3. Granted the taking the first break of the YM FTP would have been getting...

Here is another one a little while later. Both the ES and YM FBO their respective formations.

Over the most part of this week, I seem to have developed a phobia for formation breakouts. That is I have seen a lot of FBO's of the formations that I seem to be not sure of taking the next potential formation BO due to chances it could fail. I don't get that comfort feeling. I have...

Does this help. I have marked a formation and the dashed green channels and dashed gaussians to match the channel.

Thanks. That did the trick.

You have more than enough information above to make a decisive trading decision. One slight correction, the bar in question is a BO of a FBP (not a FBO of lateral formation as you claim). Also cannot be a FBO of the pennant because the price closed outside the pennant. Now back to the...

Thanks moose, Are you sure your reverse and close all are market orders? I tried 'reverse' and 'close all' in a paper trading account and they were executed as limit orders ( because a close all did not get filled). I have attached a screen shot for configuring the buttons for close all and...

Bundle, you say you had continuation at the red highlighted bar & you had FBO of the channel. If you had continuation, wouldn't you have gone long in the region of 1472-1473 even before the breakout of the FBP. So if I executed this trade according to YOUR analysis I would have had lots of...
