    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    I agree, but then why would one want to busy up their chart with a channel then? for exits? If it's a breakout off the opposite side of the channel, you should already be in the trade... Cheers, i

    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    Looks great !! (salivating) would be much appreciated!! Thanks! :D EDIT: I see what u mean on the 2nd pic. some trendlines there are not tradeable. Best of luck! TS does not appear like the easiest debugging / programming environment... I'd even venture it's buggy but i don't have...

    trading is not a vocation, it's an addiction. That was a quick turnaround... Trading with Mickey? if you're serious, are you saying its more reliable than the strong bars? EDIT: lol, just saw the death-to-cci... i think Anek has now officially started his vacation! Based on these...

    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    Good points, hadn't noticed the W - usually i see loads of them every day too! (Going to have to narrow my criteria for qualifying a W/M :)). Hmm, it was also virtually a DT that turned into a triple top. i

    Hi Mark, You write in response to the gap fill that you are looking to short. Do you notice that gap fills usually reverse? Cheers, i

    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    hey mark, at least you have the proper reaction to your mistake! This may not apply to you at all, but if you trade too big (not psychologically ready to trade that size), it's harder to admit you are wrong - thus these mistakes happen... I noticed the long on the TL BO. Anek, seems...

    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    Thanks guys! Yes I noticed he called DT's a few times this way too (and DB's) but i never found a post where he explained it... Perhaps a a combination of LH, 1-2-3? To me a DT is a persistant seller/sellers (strong resistance area bulls can't break, very visible on the T&S) whereas LH is...

    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    Anek, Are you looking at it on a different timeframe because that does not look too close to a classic double top. Or are you not considering the wick as part of the first top formation, therefore making the tops closer to being double tops? Or is there just a heck of a lot of...

    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    lol, he may not trade but I bet he'll use a lot of his free time doing research - probably more research than 99% of us on this journal - and he's on a break! i

    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    Try changing lines to the thinnest dots and selecting darker colors - helps declutter, yet still visible especially on the price axis... noticed the same for major intraday swings - you can see the large contracts trading right at those levels - amazing... thanks for sharing!

    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    just an opinion but I am pretty sure the magic tick is a tick, not a bar... does that mean you should market buy/sell once you see it? i don't think so. i think it's just a confirmation of the signal and its up to you to place either a limit order (somewhere in middle of prior bar) or if...

    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    For anyone interested, just dusted off "Getting Started in Technical Analysis" from Jack Schwager and it has a lot of the concepts that Anek discusses - patterns, h/l's, avging up (called pyramiding - author is a proponent of adding equal units with certain in-the-money trade conditions)...

    Read the posts in more detail before talking. ADK and I do not advocate irresponsible trading - we give you the framework to make avging down work. I'll assume you haven't fully read the posts prior to replying with your insults so I won't take offense... lol, it takes WAY more balls to...

    Averaging Down the real Holy Grail

    No offense JJ but i don't agree.. i think avging up's attraction is that you are never in a loss position - ie. you buy at a 2nd, 3rd, etc... points above your average cost and get out even, small loss (on first contract only) or large win. Whereas avging down means you have an unrealized...
