A few notes:
Re: ym guassians:
Thanks for posting the picture, jack. I would say that everyone involved in the previous thread (nwb's ramp up) understood it, but who knows. Anyway, mak & others, at the sct level the R2R and B2B are confirmation of the prior reversal on the LTL or FTT...
I know this was a whole bunch of pages ago, but I think I remember enough of the Sherry book to give it ago. (BTW Lefty, your recent explanation of stationarity was pretty cool).
In this case, aren't you comparing apples to oranges? You do your analysis on 5m bars-- I assume you do a test...
I've been noticing a similar influence on my stuff, although the family dynamics are different. Parents are both Ph.D.'s.. Dad rejected his father's Weberian 'protestant ethic' and interest in business (granddad started as a kid picking cotton, and sold out his management consulting firm in...
I think nwbprop and CE are making $$. Noone's heard from dawg, AFAIK
As far as I see it, the learning process is this:
Find one thing that works (Jack calls some of them 'gimmicks'). Believe in it. Make money with it. And go broader and deeper from there (w/ sequencing, etc.). The...
BA: In general, I think one idea I've gotten from Jack's postings is to take the 'iterative refinement' approach to all of the processes (as opposed to product) of one's life. I had a minor 'AHA' when I noticed that my EQ issues (both trading related and not) could be easily mapped when...
The thing I got out of farley was multiple timeframes (I know, duh, but it was still an insight that was worth the price of the book), and I finally groked divergences too.
His writing style in that book is, to be kind, ugly. What a slog of a read. His editor should be taken out to the shed...
I agree with you, but long gone are the days where I was serious about linux (I built and administered a cluster of alpha 8400's, plus some 4TB of Symmetrix hw, back in the day when a TB was a big deal). Before that, downloaded linux 1.12 (slackware early 1995) onto diskettes and bootstrapped...
In the opposite direction, I get my linux fix by running fedora in a vmware virtual machine under XP. Vmware is flawless for me, and I would reccommend it for anyone who has a reasonably powerful machine (i've got 2.4ghz p4, 1gb ram) and doesn't want to deal with dual-booting hassles.
A monk asked the master, "What is the buddha nature?" The master hit him with a stick. The monk, puzzled, frowned and returned to his daily work.
Later the master invited the monk for a walk outside the walls of the monastery. Along the way, they passed a brook.
"Can you hear the...
Yeah, I think that's what I was getting at with the commentary in the doc about not having one of the items phased correctly.
Jack gives the clue above about finding the correct fractal in which the cycle is operating (i.e. 'taping'), which is something I can eyeball but have no way of...
Bruce,
Thanks for your work! That's really cool.
I do wonder what it's like to have this as one's operational model (from a discretionary standpoint) while watching the market during the day. Still too complex for me. Is it DOM? Is it longer term (less resolution) so the orderly...
Sorry, didn't mean to repeat myself. PV links all three together (I guess the name's a tad misleading, PVAD might be better):
solution sets for the combos you noted:
(5,7), (1,3,4,6), (0,2) in pvScore
i.e.
(101,111), (001,011,100,110), (000,010)
Ahh, but that bit isn't trend, it's just acc/dis.
example:
bar 0 is positive close, 1.5k vol, bar 1 is even close, 3k vol, bar 2 is negative close, 2k vol. If you just carried the sign forward, acc/dis wouldn't tick down until after bar2, whereas the present construction ticks down on...
Right-- say this bar has no change in close, and x in volume. Putting the raw acc-dis vol at 0 is an attempt to acknowledge that the volume/direction on the next bar is more important. I haven't tested the difference (I doubt it matters much practically, unless you lengthen the phases to 16ma...
