    The Stochastic Indicator

    There are some thread going along that you can use to compare what we are doing with their focus. The one called What an INCREDible..... in trading shows how poeple do not have specific ways to understand what is going on. A couple people lucked out and others nearly got buried. We...

    The Stochastic Indicator

    Those are the three trades that occurred on Friday for dkm. Each time he went against the 1min MACD. The situation was that he needed to wash on trades he when into . He couldn't. Why did he go in? The day's beginning was saying gap up 5 congestion during synch of 5, and there was...

    The Stochastic Indicator

    You can keep things under control by keeping the scale working for you at all times. We use a 10 point scale for making money at the beginning. If you go to the 1 min fractal it is to check out the situation more thoroughly and get a confirmation of what is up on the 5 min, or for Friday am...

    The Stochastic Indicator

    The day begins. It is Friday. Learn that Friday and then Monday are days related to weekends. Holding capital in the market on a weekend is something significant. Holding money overnight in commodities futures indexes has a ratio of about 2:1 for margin required. This is a measure of risk...

    The Stochastic Indicator

    Thanks for posting. On page 97 there are 12 items that I have tried to cover so far. The list definitely leaves out the basis of the 12 items. So waht is the game plan underneath it all. What I have tried to do over the years is get people to a place where they can reason their way to...

    I feel the entry is also critical

    Thank you for making those fine points. I value entry/exit below waiting (sidelined/ holding for similar reasons. There is no value at all to a loosing exit nor the entry that gave you this specific screwup. Entry and exit are just moments in time. I feel that I end waiting at the time my...

    lets be honest

    The two points banjo made are the best I've seen around. The first point is valuable to any type person; rich or poor. The message is simple. Get to a place where you can't lose. I think that alone is what banjo's friend had going for himself. He couldn't lose. I sense that some...

    The Stochastic Indicator

    Everyone has a break through in trading. This will be yours. Here is the general drift that I try for. 1. Safe high velocity rockets. 2. Washing on ice bergs for beginners. For intermediates staying with the iceberg. 3. Seeing rockets end in congestion ,convergence and centering...

    The Stochastic Indicator

    I have attached your chart for yesterday. you may want to consider your early exits. The first and scend point 3 of the first trend tell the story. I suggested that unless a flaw shows up, use that as a criteria for staying in. For weeks your exits have not pulled down all the profits...

    finding an edge...simple?

    I don't think it will work in those markets. It's a volume thing. If you test anything go for what I recommended and do the 15 10 5 and see how far down (minute by minute) you can get below five before it craps out. 1 min is no good. It will take about 10 passes (5 on each) to get a...

    How many separate strategies/systems do you trade concurrently?

    I have two algorithms: one for equities and one for commodities futures indexes. The equities algorithm is a TA based one and the CFI grew out of that. Be cause of leverage and timing the CFI has a money velocity of 50:1 over equities; the timing ratio is 1:30 respectively. Both...

    The Stochastic Indicator

    Have we put in enough time to see that the last traverse in a trend is a flaw. The last traverse doesn't make it to the left trend line. I call this a "failure to traverse." Failures to BO are getting to be understood. They happen, in trends, to be considered with regard to the right...

    finding an edge...simple?

    Give it a try. Skip the paper trading...LOL. Do NQ and ES minis; they will be more fun when you see their synch for this approach.

    Re-label your coin. You will still loose. Do you know why?

    I feel the entry is also critical

    I particularly like bracket entries and using the open order as an inital stop. My days are divieded into two parts: before and after first trade. LOL... This seems to be related to emotions. As a person who can't loose (except time lost) entries and exits rank way below "hold" in...

    finding an edge...simple?

    I'll take that as a no. Thanks for responding.

    The Stochastic Indicator

    I can see some points of confusion. As you have guessed I do the charts continually. There were exits on each channel. See blue line 14:30 and see green line 15:40.
