Just saw your question. yeah i haven't traded u/j for last 3 months I guess. My last big trade was when boJ intervened on 31st Oct. I made 1.6k that day, my account size is super-piker size, otherwise i could have made 100x (160,000) that day. It was 'the' trade. Yeah e/c is kind of easy right...

UPDATE: I have got 7 responses till now (both on forum and PM combined). My sincere thanks to everyone who took the time to go through their stats and respond! Its been just 3 days since I started this thread, and folks must have been busy during the trading week. I am hopeful that I will get...

I am going to consider every post here as correct. No question of thinking any one is liar. So, relax! You are a great trader.

Alongwith reporting stats like mean, media etc. I would have simply reported all the results in terms of frequency distribution and bar charts. So, even if some results are not accurate, frequency distribution would have allowed folks to see where most of the traders are. But it seems getting...

Days like this happen to best of us. In your case specifically, I am sure that frequency of these days has reduced substantially over the last 2 years. Just keep working on your plan, and over time, these little errors won't happen.

Great Trading Man! Keep it up! Some advertising for the below thread. If anyone wants to contribute! http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=235310

What do you think of below ? Cleavage is an area where price trades for very little volume, which also implies that price stays in that area for very little time. Where will this happen? 1. This will happen in case of big news and price gaps through that area. 2. Under more normal...

Thank you very much for the free signal service. Even if your signal works only once a month, but you can post it here, no trader on ET will remain unprofitable. :) I sure hope I will have such an understanding of market one day as you have! Wow!

nobody commented on this. But definitely, this is the thing to note today. Today, we haven't witnessed sharp,volatile downmove, only to move back up. Also, volume has been much higher than everyday. Rather today's down move is much more slow and controlled, and it is not reversing. Probably...

one more try, go short man....wave said 1303

Look at DOM.....orderbook is incredibly thick today. Why ? 22000 contracts both side 10 levels down....genrally at this time it is around 7000-8000 or so.

Looking like a bear flag forming on 5 minutes

Ultimately, its your decision, but curious why not PM. Afterall, I am not asking for any proprietary trading signal/algorithm, nor am I asking to know your dollar pnl, I am just asking for pips(Fx), cents(stocks) and points(futures).

I will partially agree with you that profitable posters might not want to post. Thats why I said please PM if you don't want to give information on the open forum. But over the years ET has had some very profitable and consistent posters like acrary, wave, maverick, lescor, ericP, dustin, ammo...

Yes, he is pretty accurate, thats why I am trying to pick on his brains here :)

volume today on the down leg has been significantly higher today compared to volume on upleg over last few sessions. Does it mean - accumulation, distribution ? Any experts here on accu/dist !

Thanks King. Your commentary is very appreciated. :) But above theory doesn't answer why Wave thinks today was a good day to short market. 800 pound gorilla - fed has spoken - they gave free money to bank desks for 1 more year (from 2013 to 2014). Gold, Copper etc. everything reacted in view...

yes target is clear, but his logic for wanting to be short is not clear. thats what I am asking. What he sees now that he thinks we are going down today. Even if we go down 8 points say, why won't we snap back up like we have been doing for last 15 days. Thats what I am wondering. Most of the...

wave can you please indicate the logic behind your thinking. You never write down 'why' behind your calls. It will help us newbies pick up a thing or two if you can share some rationale. Thanks
