    05-04-11 05:06 PM look in this discussion at this post. the code is different than my article in active trader over 10 years ago. the concept is the same the time frames have changed and the second stream of data has changed but concept is solid.

    yes the sp and other index's lag enough from 1 minute to 2 hours behind leading data which allows a good edge. in fact i would say the reason many have little knowledge of this is because one would expect the lag to not be as significant as it is and therefore overlooked.

    your the reason i don't answer in public, and most here can thank you and some others for keeping a real deal from helping anyone anymore. the golden goose will only tolerate getting stepped on so many times. if you humbled yourself and shut up you might learn something, but your jealous...

    time is a function but you could just use the actual time not a function session start time is also a function but you could also hard input the time of the session start as 0830 etc. other than that there is nothing else, the magic is in the alternating waves of the two data streams.

    * Paper Trading Once your computer simulation shows promise, you should go to paper trading. Paper trading, like an engineering prototype, is good for working out the bugs of interfacing with the real world. Even paper trading has it's compromises. Although you will be filled at the price you...

    You have three devils against you. We all talk about the first two, but permit me to really harp on the third: 1) A random series that pretends to be non-random. You can fight this by only accepting systems that are robust across many different markets, as well as performing sizable...

    No truer words were spoken. This is exactly why a system trader must be completely comfortable with a system before trading. The only way I know how to do this is to get all the numbers and historical data before trading. I believe all to often traders don't do this and that is why they bail at...

    What was the random entry/chandelier exit study?

    THIS IS WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT I BET? ============================== The Chandelier Exit hangs a trailing stop from either the highest high of the trade or the highest close of the trade. The distance from the high point to the trailing stop is probably best measured in units of Average...

    In all the books I have read about trading, I don't think I have ever read a truer statement than this from MB: "Maybe markets appear to have a directional bias. But really they do not, all markets are in a transition to surprising the person who thinks he has the direction figured out."...

    Characteristics of a Successful Trader

    ok lets talk about getting shaken out - you must plan and know you have a edge if you do this or that. you must execute that plan and stick to it. do not modify the plan just stick to it. if it does not work out and you lose all your money then you did not plan properly in the first place.

    so it really comes down to a plan - a plan that most likely is opposite of what most people have. a inverted thinker.
