Did you see the upkick that abruptly ended the Dream 6 middleweight grand prix, Mousasi vs Jacare? Ouch! :eek: [B] Then you have Overeem's more direct approach... :D

I'm a lot newer to this method than Interdim, but equally, hope to be able to make a positive contribution here in the future. In the meantime, here's something that curious newcomers might find useful. It's a (much simplified) version of one of Jack's recent posts, crystallizing the entire...

Added to my ignore list.

Why don't you move into a flatshare in town with some young professionals? Do some charity work in a sociable environment? Get a part-time job (outside RTH) doing something you really enjoy, and something that will bring you into contact with people? Travel the world, trading on the...

Also, here's a preliminary draft of a mind-map based on Jack's Channels paper. If anyone feels this might be useful I'd be happy to post an updated graphical version when it's ready.

Hi all, This is my first attempt at a Hershey-style chart. Just wondering if I've made any glaring errors? Thanks, Neoxx P.S. Sorry it's not todays chart... saving the last couple of days data for market replay this weekend.

Does anyone know how to make channels persist across timeframes, when using Pepe's channels tool?... P.S. Thanks for the great stuff, Pepe :)

Traderzones, With all due respect, likelihood of success has absolutely nothing to do with wishing someone luck or success. Doling out criticism and disparagement under the guise of realism isn't difficult. I imagine the OP has staked a lot of time and energy and emotion on this. So much...

Kudos. All the best.

I think it's possible to be serious without trading full-time. I also live in Europe; I tweaked a 5-day work-week to Mon, Tue, Thur (daytime and overnight) and Saturday. So I get two whole and two half weekdays to daytrade/week, and run a double-time Sim on Sundays. Also squeeze in some...

I admire your ambition and determination, but have to agree with the other posters. Surely the hurdle of consistent profitability should be passed before the move to full-time daytrading, else a promising venture turns into a gamble. Many here are testament to the fact that trading success...

If only I could get my girlfriend to do that. :p

The buying power in the display is calculated based on overnight margins. It doesn't restrict you during the day. You'll find that you can trade much more than 8 contracts, irrespective of how much buying power the program says you have. Try it on sim.

I had the same problem with Tradestation, until I called them, and they enabled my account for daytrade margins. Incidentally, they had an additional proviso that a hard stop was necessary (within 7 pts) in order to qualify for the day rate.

Insulting posters is a sure-fire way of getting positive responses. Interesting premise you have there. :p :confused:

Hilariously disturbing. :D

[/b] Couldn't agree more. [/b] That's really interesting. Had skimmed through two or three of those threads without ever paying much attention to their S/R levels, on the assumption that they'd all have come to the same conclusions. Again, assuming they're using visual levels, I think a...

Exactly. Kaizen, a system of continuous and incremental improvement, is applicable to many things in life, including trading. However, when using a tool which depends on consensus opinion for it's strength and validity (i.e. S/R) it would seem ludicrous to eschew obvious visual levels for...

I can see how people could plot too many S/R levels on a chart, but can't fathom how there could possible be so many different ways to visually plot S/R levels. There's obviously going to be variability depending on the time-frame of the chart, and the use of lines vs bars/candles, but surely...
