Quote from Avid_Consumer: does high freq trading add valuable real liquidity? doesn't seem clear cut to me at all. Dude, are you retarded? How can you possibly ask that question? People trade in different timeframes. Have you never looked at an instrument that just formed for...

Excellent post!! The thing is that they need short-term traders and scalpers, we are the ones providing liquidity in the market. Because of us there will allways be someone to sell your position to. If we weren't here, who would want to buy the shares of companies doing bad under these...

But in the futures market there is not a fixed amount of contracts. There needs to bee a seller for every buyer. So it would not be possible to regulate short selling in futures-market? Or am I compleatly wrong here?

But you don't think they could ever regulate shorting futures? That would not be possible?

This is insane!!! Do they not understand that they need short-term traders?? Because of us there is allways liquidity in the market, and therefore allways buyers, no matter how bearish the market is!

I love this volatility myself! What kind of regulation do you think they could come up with?

I had a feeling this thread would end up like a complete battlefield, as I think its clear that many people for some reason have so much hatred for one or the other trading method. As I stated in my opening post, I started this thread because I was curious about the differences between the...

My first trade of the day, pre-market. Trading pre-market gives you a lot of time to make decisions as the market moves a lot slower.

Is this what you had in mind IronFist? These triangles are not showing my exact entry points though.

Please post a pic of your charts so I can see how your looks!

My entrance is were the black little line is drawn! But I will change my settings from now on!

One more winner! I could have posted all of my trades today, but I don't think there is any point in showing all of my bad trades from earlier today, since I did not follow my "PAP" and therefore it would not contribute in any way to this thread. Most of my trades from earlier were based on...

A great lack of discipline has cost me much pain today. Not waiting for cleare waves on my timeframe, and confirmation from both of my MA. However last hour has been great! 4 Winners in a row.

Anek doesn't use the AHG method anymore??

wow.. Yeah that sounds a bit heavy I think!

what do you mean by SCT? Thanks for your input!

I do not have a set number of ticks on my stop losses. I set my SL based on PA, meaning 1 or 2 ticks above or below last high/low. However that does not mean I will allways let price go that much against me before I let it stop out. Sometimes it just does not feel right, price doesn't do what I...

Hi! What is the main difference between these two types of trading methods? Anybody here who have maybe studied both of them and have any meaningfull thoughts about this? From schratching the surface of both of them I am getting the feeling of Jack Hersey's method beeing a bit more...

2 trades from this morning, pre-market. 1 long, 1 short. The long was a bad trade should not have taken it because it did not follow macro direction. Second trade (short), I reversed my position after a dobble top was made. Following macro direction as well. Right after I closed my short, I...

Forgot to attach my pic :confused: .. Here it is!
