The "problem" with crossover systems is they don't do what you want. That is, they don't "confirm a new trend so that it's safe to enter the water" on a trade. And they don't reduce or eliminate whipsaws.

They have monumentally power-mad, self-serving, greedy assholes... Maduro and Erdogan.. as their leaders. Socialism/Communism at its finest/worst(?). Hope America is watching that never comes here.

There are always a few stores about someone who "hit a home run". I recently got an email touting someone's "advice" on the markets who claims to have "gone all-in" on a $1 stock which he eventually sold for $54. Don't know whether that's truth or balloon juice, of course. But the notion that...

What does that mean... "duped"? (I can't start a PM with you, but you can with me if you choose.)

What you said.

They otta pass a law... that all such girls should be required to ride bicycles!

Ditto! The brilliant Founders gave us our Constitution and Bill of Rights so that our people could be protected from the tyranny of government. About 100 years ago, the Left started chipping away at us and now are at the point of having ~50% of the voters somehow* believing...

Recognizing "order flow" is the Holy Grail only if you can front-run it.

You pose this question like you think everybody knows what "TST" is. Did yo' mama teach you no manners?

Ditto. Evil cannot be legislated away. The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun. Even the Lefties know this, but they still want to disarm America.... and we all know why that is! Rather than ban guns in America, I'd rather see it be "MANDATORY carry for all...

That's what you should be doing. You will learn "things" trading with real money, even if small, that you won't get trading sim. Suggest you continue to trade small until you've gone through a "bad market" for you... that probably means a bear market of sorts. Ideally you'll get through it...

One thing Trumpy has done is to get the Lefties to blast their agenda and methods into full view. Anyone in doubt about that now is either wearing blinders or has his head in the sand. Mid-term elections will be important. A vote for a Democrat is a vote for a totalitarian Leftist police...

Yeah but...."everybody is equal", you know. Venezuela's Socialism has worked perfectly, as intended... everybody poor except the ruling elite.

ABSODFRICKIN' LUTELY!

He's not "in the business". He's a regular guy. Married, 2 kids. I asked him how he learned to trade so successfully at an early age. Said, "taught by an institutional trader". (DUH! We could all use some of that.) Mostly hangs out and does what he wants. Can always make money as...

Not important that you "get rich NOW". It's important that you GET IT... however long it takes... period. Lever up when you're ready.

2 points per day is reasonable for a competent trader. I have a friend* who once told me he averaged 9.5 ES points per day for an entire year.... trading 50-200 lots. (You can do the math on that, right?) *Owns a Chicago hi-rise and lives in the penthouse.

Like I said... "counters are a problem". There will be times when "you withstand longer and deeper drawdowns" (presuming them to be noise counters, when in fact some of them will be "change of trend").... you look back and say, "wish I hadn't done that... should have stopped out waaaay sooner"...

Disagree. If you want to make $5K/month, what you really need is confidence you can net 2-points per day* in the ES, without regard to leverage.... while controlling downside risk. That's about 20%/yr. Once you can do that, then you can lever up as much as your capital will allow. * No easy...

Better than scalping, but your "fly in the ointment" is, when you "hold for days", you have to presume "trades against you are noise and are properly held-through, ridden-out". Big flaw in that strategy. "Counters and presumed-counters" are always a big problem.
