I think inallday, what Jack refers to as seamless continous trading, is a very advanced concept and not something you can just decide to do. You have to work your way up to it. You start out taking small pieces and gradually learn how to hold through the minor trends. Reversing is the last and...

Thank you very much Jack. It is slowly coming together. I will have to go over this a few times but I can see a light at the end of the tunnel. This thread has some invaluable stuff in it for anybody who takes the time to study it. P.s. I am getting pretty good at washes and am doing some...

Thanks duard. I know how to do those. The ones I am talking about are when after the last high it drops out of the channel without any bounce inside the channel. These happen quite often.

Jack In an earlier post on this thread you said: [Then as money is made by trading the long diagonal of the parallelogram, at the end of the long diagonal the next trend begins. You have all the points required to draw the next trend channel by the time the price leaves the prior channel.]...

lol. I agree.What does any of this have to do with trading? You watch the market until you get in synch, then you trade.

You might want to include a 20ema. You will be amazed how many times it acts as s/r.

Yes that was a nice call. I find it too difficult to hold thru the midday congestion. Got stopped out for a scratch on the pm bo and now it will probably run up into the close without me.

I bought the bo but it fizzled.:mad:

The problem right now is that ES did not make a double top but is still working on a new high. This may be the top but could also be a trend day up. Have to wait a bit. Why are you so sure about the double top Maestro?

By asking this question I would say you dont need it for now.

\ I know a methodology. What you do is look at charts and note the pullbacks and then average them. Granted this is a lot of work so it probably wont fly.

I got into trading when that daytrader killed all those people in Atlanta. I figured anything that could get somebody that wound up was something I needed to check out.

I was just sitting here thinking about how amazing it is that I can sit here at home and compete. A couple of years ago it was a problem but since dsl came to my small town I have had no problem getting instantaneous executions. My hardware and software are state of the art and the only thing...

Wow. They named a computer after Nitro. As for that first site I cannot imagine a good scalper trading for 20% of profits.

There are many free sites for homepages.Every blog link on here follows a .com or .org. The only difference I can come up with so far is that blogs are more of a diary but lots of homepages are diaries too. I dont get it. Not that its important.:)

Whats the difference between a blog and a homepage?

It is my understanding that cbot does not accept stop orders period. Your stop order resides with your broker. From IB: CBOT (E-CBOT) Stop Orders and Stop-Limit Orders: Stop orders and Stop-Limit orders are not supported by the E-CBOT. Interactive Brokers provides customers with...

I deleted the post because after thinking about it I realized you might take it the wrong way but I was too late. I was commenting on your way of expressing yourself, not the content of the post which I take quite seriously.

I dont think the market is completely random. The key phrase, imo, is as nitro said, "a large percentage of the tiime". There are brief instances when it is not random and that is our edge. The last two days are a good example of when you have a huge edge. Wish they came along more often...
