I admit, a bit of a stretch of course. But many inventions are still exactly the same as they were 100 years ago or even much earlier. And are still as usable. Charts are great tool to analyse the markets. So far.

When did cars appear? Didn't they change the way people move from place to place while staying the same idea basically? :p

Yep, makes more sense to just use MIT or STP (depending on direction) in liquid markets. 1-2 ticks of slippage sometimes more than worth it.

Not going to exploit the moment, but TA is a great tool for timing and overlooking it is a big mistake IMO.

Yep. Timing does matter.

Great research for sure! There was a time, when charts changed market analysis. Who knows, maybe IA change the industry just as much.

Very interesting chart, Maestro, especially considering I am shorting NQ myself here since it showed signs of serious sell off. But that gauge, does it show when market for example slows down in the decline before continues further? If I didn't watch NQ today, would say decline was relatively...

Market started to sell off. Surf may be fundamentally right.

Well, yes. :D

Surf, no need to be sorry. Controlled, normal losses are a good thing, they protect you from bad, catastrophic losses. If taking a loss where you did was part of your system, don't be sorry, give yourself credit for doing everything right.

Ah, right. Sorry, confused "flat" with break-even somehow in my mind... clear now.

What do you mean by flat with losses?

Anything is possible. I just follow the price, not predict you know. :) But personally, a bit higher VIX would sure be nice. :p

Indexes look pretty bullish indeed.

Eventually VIX will be up, the question is when. :)

Are we talking about an edge here or psychological moments of trading? If the first, then paper trading or not is completely irrelevant. And if the second, I can help one for less than $20K to cope with those issues. :D

I perform somewhat similar experiment, running a live chat where people see everything as it happens as real-time as possible. That's the first stage of the plan so far... must say that live reporting of trades makes me realize many things, so it's a great experience.

That's fine, not everybody has the traits required. But how is $20K related to that? :confused:

I use statistics to tell me when to exit. Makes it objective and not subjective process. Consequently no such problem.

I have no idea why OP wants to pay for the statement. It can be photoshopped or it can be a separate account with a lucky streak et cetera. And the most important: how would such a statement benefit to the OP? Boost of confidence that "it's possible"? :confused:
