and if the ma's cross against you while you're in the trade, the mkt is usually very forgiving at that moment and you can darn near scratch.

and all that occurs within or without support and resistance. Draw a horizontal line when the ma's cross and you will see why you are having a bad day.

kay, that's all I've been doing is blabbing about these stupid channels. You just set up a slow ma and a fast ma and some channels and you try to trade them. You can use the chimp method which trades from the cross out to the channel, but everytime I tried that I would become forelorn and...

banjo, The only chart I know that goes back to 2000 is yahoo, and it aint much of a chart. So I had to draw the lines in my head. Now keep in mind, in my little world, I am talking about a 10 or 15 minute window of opportunity to scalp from one side or another. If it weren't for transaction...

seems to be the theme of the day. I wonder what that means? Nice work. 1. Ask a person on the street to pick a number between 0 and 3. 2. Ask a person on the street to pick a number between 0 and 6. 3. Ask a person on the street to pick a number between 0 and 9. 4. Assemble those numbers...

right, sort of like trading under a favorable sign. Same here, nothing I post is really tradeable (at least not for a person of normal intelligence), but I didn't make it this far on my brains.

I only trade es. I think more people who have successful systems in other markets should come and use those same systems on es. I don't know if they would make money, but it sure would make my job a lot easier.

Many say all indicators are lagging. True. But isn't it about time? If a slow indicator gives a signal once a month, and a fast indicator gives a signal once a day, when the slow indicator gives a signal, then you have 30 signals to choose from on the fast time frame. So when the slow...

wherein E stands for Entry I stands for Indicator E stands for Exit I stands for Indicator O stands for options Finally got my channels working. It's amazing how much better life goes when the market trends. I love scalping all day long...

no, I lose money when I am right and everybody else is wrong. Their error in judgement causes my correct position to move in an adverse manner. I do trade from home, but I like to think I am not trading for me alone. I am trading to make the world a better place. And the world would be a better...

I was victimized by irrational exuberance. It's hard when you show up at work and do the right thing, and everybody else does the wrong thing, and they get rewarded and I alone must pay for the wages of their sin out of my meager trading account. Wouldn't be so bad except it happened twice...

there's only 3 people on this site. Me, you, and whoever's reading this post.

how many millions of posts would you have to your name if they counted all your names together?

Gann is nothing to kid about!

hmm, I was over at Tom Bierovics website and he has a pitchfork on the DIA chart. What's a pitchfork and how does it work?

your point about point and figure is a point well taken. I had my first nervous breakdown trading corn with point and figure. Like the guy who taught me said, "Now, this is going to take a real commitment." I think I'll try to relearn everything I have mercifully forgotten about point and...

I have been following ES very closely now for the last two hours. If I project this historical data into the future, I am quite certain that on Dec 31 2003, we should be in the 848-850 range.

I had so much crap on my charts I finally had to take off the candles and replace them with LOC. I always liked LOC because it was the simplest of all charts. At any rate, when I'm reading the market well, price becomes the most deceptive indicator. It may be going up or down, but my support...

listening to a trading guru is sort of like stopping and asking directions. Something the I personally as a man am not comfortable doing.

I was going to tell you some stuff about tape reading, but before I could, you insulted this board, so I guess I will wait until a more humble and patient student comes along to share what I know.
