We already had ADX over 40 and DI-> DI+ in the moning, so the trend is down, After that you just trade in the direction of the trend. You will not get ADX > 40 more than twice a day. I will write in detail after close.

Sold 79 Stop 82.50.

Just to add to this, if the slope or the difference between the fast line and slow line had been bigger I'd have passed the trade.

It certainly looks like that right now but at the moment I could not really tell if the fast line was above the slow line. They were basically hugging each other. Once I entered the trade I could notice that the fast line was above the slow line but I had my stop to protect me. There is a new...

If anyone knows how to make the chart smaller, please let me know. Thanks.

I usually cannot trade on Mondays and Wednesdays because of my regular job but today I was not feeling well so I decided to stay home. I made 8 NQ points. 1 is where I got the signal with ADX > 40, 2 is where I entered the trade and 3 is where I exited.

This was a trade from yesterday. Looking back it was a mistake because the MACD was sloping down even though it was above 0. There was a long signal after the open that would have been profitable but I was busy with something else so did not get a chance. I have noticed that this works...

Long 1203.5, stopped 1199.50. Down 4 pts.

MA never crossed below so it is invalid now. ADX> 40 and DI+ > DI-, so I'll be going long on a pullback.

ADX > 50 and DI- > DI+. Waiting for the 3 MA to cross below 65.

I'm modifying one of the conditions here. If the 3 MA is below 65 MA and price is going up I need the ADX to be 50 or close, but if the price is already above 65 and 3 MA then ADX around 40 will work too. Just one trade today. Let's see what tomorrow brings.

Here is this morning's trade. At point 1, ADX > 50 and DI+ > DI- At 2, 3MA crossed over 65 and price closed below 3. Entered long at the next bar after the high was breached. At 3 exited from the trade with a trailing stop 1.5 below the low. Stop is only moved up never down. The buy...

How do I make the chart smaller.

Thanks, let's see if this uploads correctly. Here is today's trade. 1 is where you got the signal and 2 is where you cover for a total profit of 4.75 points.

I will be trading NQ. Here is my set-up. 3-minute chart. ADX 9 MA 3 and 65 MACD 12 26 9. Entry wait for ADX to get to 50. For long entries DI+ > DI- MACD above 0 and fast line above slow line. 3 MA above 65. Wait for a bar to close below the 3 MA and buy .25 above the bar...

Has IB reverted back to normal margin?

Could not trade today because of IB margin requirement. There was a long signal after the 9.30 - 10 est bar. The buy limit price was 10938 and the stop would have been 10918. In the next bar price came down to 10933, so I would have been filled but IB did not take the order. After that the...

I never said it was easy. I just wanted to feel what it was like but not lose everything that I have. Everyone has to start somewhere and somehow.

I got stopped out in 15 secs after I entered the trade. Here are few other filters that I will add to before I enter a trade. 1. I will only enter a trade if the price comes to my point in the next 3 bars after a new low is made. 2. If after we make a new low the next 30-min bar is...
