These statements can be read in several different ways and are confusing. Please could you explain what you mean... For example, from the peak of the previous rally, the price will definition have pulled back other wise it would not be the peak. At this point, until you pass this price again...

Spread on YM is anything from 1 some of the time - often 2, 3 reasonably frequently but not for more than maybe 10 seconds or so at a time, and sometimes can even be 4 or 5. Usually it is either 1 or 2 points. the real advantage is not that the spread is less, but that it moves in 1 point...

Agreed Db, and it doesn't hurt people who have been around for a while to be reminded either. If it helps someone, somewhere - so much the better. Natalie

Say what you like about it, but many of the newbies havn't got a clue about any of this, and there are a lot of them around right now... Natalie

I think there are 2 issues here. 1 is being able to accurately predict times when things will happen, and then anyone can have systems where one or other of their trading signals is triggered at aound that time, and they have a trade they can take. 2 is trying to predict what that signal...

Wrong side of the pennines - sorry Natalie

Is this taken from a backtest, or actual trades? Ideally you need to load the raw data into a spread sheet, and then start sifting through it to find good entry/exit probabilities, and from there, reset the entry/exit levels, re-test and run through the whole exercise again... Natalie

You could also calculate from that probability tables relating to different levels, and further enhance your strategy from there, based upon getting higher probability trades with smaller stops and bigger targets less often, and thus reducing your level of risk involved in the trade itself...

I think the point about the 2% is quite simply this. Risk no more than 2% of the capital you have on a trade. That way if the trade goes wrong (even with a good strategy it happens) you will not be out of the game... So, if you have say $5000 you should not risk any more than $100 per...

Why - Thank you kind sir. :) Natalie

I doubt that will happen - Too much vested interest in the Mutual Fund industry as well... Natalie

Walters time projections have been pretty accurate. He's not giving direction, just times to look out for where he has calculated that a relatively low risk trade may be taken. He's been pretty much spot on so far... Natalie

Thanks Chuck, I really think that would be a massive improvement for those of us involved in systems development and testing. the ability to import and export data (we already have export now) I think is central to any good system. But I take your point about splits and things. Thanks for...

Hi Chuck I still can't help thinking that opening up the package to be able to use locally held data would be a good idea, and giving people the ability to store data locally would ease pressure on the servers. It's less the real time data connection that is the problem, but rather more...

Aren't reversals usually also characterised with volume spikes? Wouldn't that indicate there would be more to come until a build in volume and a spike (which ties in with your 3rd dimension)? Natalie

Sounds like you need to apply for a job at Nitro's and Bobcathy's latest venture :) Natalie p.s. I believe all the best jobs are gone now though....?!?!?!
