    "Give your system a KISS" by Mark Seleznov

    Actually only one of my three systems would require that, two others can easily be run manually.

    "Give your system a KISS" by Mark Seleznov

    How do you then explain the fact that there are not so many of those ATS on the market yet? Literally one or two. I have my own systems, just need some software to run them, will have look into that soon.

    Other platforms: Wealth-Lab and Ensign, they use similar languages. Visit Wealth-Lab and Ensign websites for more info. You can check out Amibroker as well, the least expensive of them all. See the software section of this site for relevant links.

    I use TRIN mostly for confirmations of what TICK is trying to tell me. This is not a primary indicator in itself, but I use it in combination with TICK. The thing is that sometimes TICK and TRIN are both rising or both are declining and in a case like that I would not trust TICK at all. I would...

    No, I was not watching that at all because last night one of my systems told me to go short and today another one gave me a short entry and I scored 25.25 ES pts so I am very happy today. The third one did not give any signal because of the morning gap down. Something very similar happened on...

    Is anyone successfully using MA crosses to trade?

    That's unlike with my systems. They are all about clicking a few buttons. Then you can basically retire for the rest of the day.:D Yes, you have to trust the system, but that's about all when it comes to the discipline.

    Is anyone successfully using MA crosses to trade?

    How many people talking about their systems tell you all the details. If they do, the systems are not so good and most likely have been in the public domain for a while. And I know for a fact that a system very similar to one of mine is being sold for $3,500. Except that mine is still better.:D...

    "Give your system a KISS" by Mark Seleznov

    a sound money management system (AKA cutting losess short and letting profits run) is very important in any trading system. I cut the losses at 6 ES pts, my targets are 9 pts except for one of the systems in which I close my position with an MOC order.

    "Give your system a KISS" by Mark Seleznov

    Today I am scoring over 15 pts with one of them (will exit with a MOC order) and just closed a position with a 9 pt profit in another one. All for 1 ES contract.

    Is anyone successfully using MA crosses to trade?

    It is probably better to use one (200 Period MA) as an entry trigger and the other as a stop loss trigger. Anyway, the same can be accomplished with breakout systems, they may even be better. I use breakout systems, 3 systems to diversify. They do a good job and when they all give signals on...

    50 week MA Test

    Try Amibroker (ca $80-90) or Ensign Internet ($40 a month). See the software section of this site.

    Is anyone successfully using MA crosses to trade?

    You are right, I use something like that too, except that for indicators like TICK and TRIN to anticipate where they can go next and it is not exactly the same, but similar. It's called the inflection, in the scientific parlance.

    "Give your system a KISS" by Mark Seleznov

    Actually, the idea was identical, except that applied to 30 min bars and except for details of implementation (this 1.005 thing). It was just an extension of the first 30 min breakout system used by others and presented in the thread 'The importance of simplicity'. wally_

    Is anyone successfully using MA crosses to trade?

    Of course, which means that you should not be exiting on crossovers, right? So perhaps you should not also be entering on crossovers, right? In other words, that probably does not matter how you enter as long as it is not too much against the trend. That's the basic use of MA crossovers: they...

    "Give your system a KISS" by Mark Seleznov

    Thanks for this link. I would guess that Netpicks.com E-mini trading service uses something similar. I once asked about them here, but nobody knew anything about it. They seem to be doing fairly well and their system is always in too, except that recently they have been trading only in the...

    "Give your system a KISS" by Mark Seleznov

    Thanks, I had a very similar idea just recently, last week I guess. I believe I even mentioned it in one of the threads here, except that I meant it for 30 min bars. My question in connection with that: did you check this system also for other time frames, say 30 min and 45 min? And how...

    Need Intra Day Data and Back Testing System

    Thanks for your post. I have been using their intraday data for some via H-Quote as a downloader, but I have had big problems downloading it for the last 2-3 weeks and have not been able to download any intraday data for a week. I thought that perhaps I could get it directly via qoute.com so...
