Sold YM at 12773. Total profit since December over the course of 3 contracts (March, June, September): +4347.94 Looking at the chart below, I considered selling the second high in early May but decided to hold. Fortunately I got another opportunity to exit at a decent price. Exited...

cool!!

I am currently evaluating javascript solution that looks promising. http://www.highcharts.com/products/highstock/ thanks fan27

Funny you are in Tampa, Fl. So am I. In 2003 I did exactly what you hope to do (was 29 years old at the time). I left a well paying software job to become a trader. Had about 38 k saved plus 20 k my parents gave me to trade (SHOCK!). I tried a variety of methods but eventually wrote...

can anyone recommend a good PHP charting library that will allow for interactive charts, indicators, etc. thanks! fan27

thanks guys. I will check out your suggestions. fan27

I am looking for a tool that does not require the user write code. Seems like the web based tools are typically geared towards that. thanks fan27

Are there any good web based back testing sites out there that will: 1. Allow me to create entry/exit criteria (both pre-built and custom). 2. Search against one to many stocks. thanks! fan27

I used to have about 5 systems running concurrently. The issue I had was that the systems were highly correlated and at times I would have multiple signals and have way to much exposure. The systems did well for awhile but I realized it was only a matter of time before they blew up so I pulled...

Great article! Thanks!!!

Sold my March YM and bought the June YM. Staying long here.

Exited AUY for 16.99 (essentially BE). With the huge down move in Gold yesterday and AUY failing to move higher, the odds of winning were decreasing. Still long YM and CLR.

what is your max draw down? how often does it trade?

Adding stocks to the mix. Long 600 AUY @ 17.10 Long 100 CLR @ 83.00 These are both break out plays which I hope will capitalize on strengthening commodity prices (gold and oil).

Long and strong here. Note: my entry was 12040, not 12400 per my last post.

Long YM at 12400. Looks like we are going to run for the 12200 level and I anticipate we will break it to the upside.

exited DX last night. Long DX: -2019 loss.

DX is currently at 76.5. Moved my stop to 75.98. This trade is on life support...hoping for some bad news out of Europe:)

This has been a bad week to be long the dollar. My stop order is currently at 74. Going to move it to 76.

I got lucky on the short cover. Rather than exiting at the market Sunday night, I put in a limit order so I could eke out an extra point. Once I was filled the market took off and never looked back.
