    Market Profile Plus by bolter

    bolter, good journal. I'm looking forward to its continuation. Regarding your statement that funds get smacked in the S&Ps, might I ask how you conclude this? I pay a lot of attention to the CoT report in natural gas, and I find that though a lot of people think the specs get killed, the...

    Does the CFA Open Doors?

    Sounds like a good designation. I'll certainly consider adding it once I'm done with my CFA series in June.

    Can any Bloomy users out there tell me if they have a Market Profile chart? How about constant-volume charts? Thanks

    Proper Way to Ask for a 2nd Look

    Thanks for the informative suggestion! This one was just as helpful as you're telling of another poster that she should be damn happy with whatever offer was on the table and that she shouldn't consider another path. I might be more inclined to listen to you if you lost the derisive tone...

    Proper Way to Ask for a 2nd Look

    For those of you who have some experience hiring traders or working closely with those who hire traders, is there a proper, potentially effective way to ask for a "second look" if you get turned down for a job? (No, I haven't been rejected, at least not yet, but I figured it would be good...

    Market Technicians Association

    Took level III in October. I'm in the process of getting the designation.

    Does the CFA Open Doors?

    I am taking the level III in June as well. I chose to do it as a backup to my trading career if it flops. (Some proprietary firms do like to see a CFA designation. It depends on their strategies.) From what I can tell, the CFA designation plus even a little pertinent experience will make...

    Natural Gas

    Natural gas is up $0.80 on the day right now. Also, the fact that winter is over has already been priced in. Natural gas often makes its annual low in Jan or Feb (see my update). As far as inventories, I think they're a non-issue at this point. The big worry in natural gas is always the...

    Natural Gas

    Hopefully, man! For what it's worth, here is an update that I wrote just before open this morning. It looks good right now, although certainly I know it could turn around. The trade I have in mind would be to have bought just above Friday's high today, at 8.65, with a stop at 7.53.

    Natural Gas

    Yes, but they are too short. Once large specs get over 40,000 contracts net short in natural gas, it tends to bottom within about two to three weeks. Further, natural loves to bottom in the first quarter, especially January. I feel fairly confident in saying we are closer to the bottom...

    Anyone using CQG order entry system?

    I use it. I haven't had any issues with stability thus far. As far as having to confirm the order after dragging the price into the appropriate column, just click the 'Setup' button that appears when the DOM screen is active. There's an option under notifications to turn that off. You can...

    Natural gas

    Certainly looks bearish, as we're threatening a confirmed double top on the weekly, but keep in mind we're still sitting on the "Katrina gap". Also, large speculators are over 40,000 contracts net short. This usually implies a reversal to the upside.

    Programming Job Opportunity

    thn, I believe so, but they usually bring people on in other capacities first, e.g., they'll hire a smart office manager, and if he works out, they'll start throwing him options books. So, I'm sure if you work out in this capacity, there's no reason why you couldn't start trading with them...

    I'm posting this as a favor to someone that works in my building. (I also posted it in 'Career Trader'.) If anyone is interested and contacts Peggy, just mention that you heard about this from Jason Braswell: Organization Hudson Capital Group, LLC (HCG) began proprietary trading energy...

    Easylanguage, Bollingers

    Uh, that's not what's written in my TS, nor is it what I wrote on this forum. Am I accidentally invoking some html command that's lopping off my code? I responded back at the TS forum. Thanks!

    Easylanguage, Bollingers

    Sorry to bug you folks with such a stupid question, but I'm having a problem with Easylanguage, and nobody on the TS forum seems to be interested in it. This is supposed to turn into a strategy, but I wanted to try an easy painbar to test the building blocks. The code is supposed to paint...
