    TA - Objective or Psychological Skill?

    People do it all the time, but we are not going to share it with you. You have to just watch for good conditions to trade your system. Certain systems work good in low volatility and some work good in high volatility.

    Element Trading remains in theft of traders funds, 18 months later!

    It has been posted many times here in ET about a couple of con artists that start new companies after stealing investor funds, so if you see that they are part of management, then don't invest. Also, you could have posted here and asked about this company before investing your money. Red...

    ES Journal - 2013

    Chased a short a little on ES, and of course price reversed and market went up against me. I decided to average in another contract where I should have instead just had a limit order to get into the short in the 1st place instead of chasing thinking the market would fall without me in it. Took...

    Rithmic and EOTPRO Offer Virtual Private Servers at the CME Data Center In Aurora

    Anyone interested in splitting the cost of a server? I would need to run Ninja Trader (with zenfire), so if you run some other software, I would think we not have a conflict. I trade futures. Maybe we could get around 4 traders to go in. I don't do HFT, so I would not be hogging the server's...

    Market Context for PA setups

    I will now explain the problem of breaking trades. Breaking trades can work fine, but one sometimes needs a bigger stop with them. On a non breaking trade, I can always use a smaller stop when I don't chase price. However, if one wants to make money on a daily basis, sometimes you just got to...

    Market Context for PA setups

    No, market context is a lagging trend determination. What's good about it is that trend can continue for a long time on a higher time frame chart, and can set the tone for the day. When I use my own indicator (not market context), it tells me on a lower time chart if price is going to...

    How do you determine your entries?

    1 min charts are just noise, there can be no good entries off of noise. Get rid of your 1 min chart. There are ways to show overall trend on a longer term chart if you just want to use 1 chart or instead use the 5 min chart and then a higher min chart to show longer term price action. The...

    Market Context for PA setups

    http://www.marketwatch.com/story/energy-stocks-are-worst-sp-500-performers-2013-06-04?siteid=YAHOOB We went back down as market context changed to negative with investors worrying about the Fed. However, this could be just a very large range as bulls fight the bears. I normally don't like...

    Market Context for PA setups

    When looked at a bullish market context today ES was down 2 points, I see that it closed up 9 points. So as we can see the trend can last a very long time. As noted I did not have bullish PA setup for ES, but assuming I did not have to leave early today, I could have waited for a bullish...

    Market Context for PA setups

    It is possible to use a breakout strategy for news events, but it does not always work. You would need to have orders in place before the news. I think you are right, and some traders are using inside information while the HFT are front running the news. As some of you know the HFT...

    Cornix's TA Performance

    Cornix, Wow such a long thread already. Is it possible, you post a chart of ES and/or CL, with one of your past profitable trades on it. I know the haters don't like previous chart annotations, but some of like to learn new things. If you don't want to do it in public, can you just...

    Market Context for PA setups

    Market Context and technical analysis is affected by new information or reports that come out. However, once the trend is established, you can base your trades on that trend till it changes. This does not mean you blindly go long or short. You still need to use your setups. For example, I...
