    I am getting my butt handed to me on a daily basis!

    As a group the real Time and the technical real Time are now 32 pages long including about 12 illustrations that relpace writing a lot of text (shorthand flow charts of processes). This material was in use this week and it is being critiqued page by page so I can rewrite it. I am filling...

    I am getting my butt handed to me on a daily basis!

    Best thing to do is make up a list. And each item can be addressed rapidly. These days are rare ones for making money. The basic opportunity hinges on the topic called "unknowns" in our economy. We all saw the efect of the WSJ/CNBC polling. Also the deadlines being set and the plans...

    I am getting my butt handed to me on a daily basis!

    Thanks for your input. I've done an interview process at our trading room. I spent 4 to 6 hours taking notes. I'm including this thread's posts as a supplement to the interviews. Over the last five days I have been spreading things out in two dimensions to gain a closer look at the...

    Most of the people say Time Series doesn't work, why?

    Sorry I wasn't more explicit. In markets, mathematics uses events series analysis to gain additional degrees of freedom. For example, I look at the market's system of operation as a footbal team doing downs to make scores. A week for me is the series I use to double capital (make a first...

    Most of the people say Time Series doesn't work, why?

    It is an event series. Events happen on market variables. the market has an independent variable and a dependent variable. Knowing this, a person can look for events that are significant. significant events are called signals. Logically speaking, it is possible to understand that...

    Easy edges in the markets for retail participants?

    the OP doesn't seem to sense or reason that there is a set of participants and the fact that "to each his own" is at play independently. Larry Harris lays out 32 named types in his heirarchy. I function in one of those boxes of the heirarchy. All traders branch from one general box. I...

    Easy edges in the markets for retail participants?

    You have a problem. Consider examining it. Also you are a student of price (another naive problem). In golf there is an expression: "Drive for pleasure and putt for money." Being a student of price is like going to the driving range. Get a putter. Have your landscape maintainer put...

    thanks for helping me out. a lot of others thank you as well. my view is that multiple replies ofthen show nice variations in emphasis. All of us are peers by virtue of our different life experiences. Each contribution to the learning process has a value of some sort. The contrast...

    that is correct. I also note that the BO T1 is also found on the outside bar as the first(upper) row of the OB. When I look it up I see that BM to BO is NOT in the Set A. Since it is not, I do not have a c turn on the EE that happened. I assign an a turn to the upper row. Now I finish...

    I am getting my butt handed to me on a daily basis!

    I have for several years wanted to deal with 10 to 12 leading indicators of price. So far I have passed on this facet of carving turns. I do what I can to keep a person growing in his knowledge and skills. Putting up another TF and using channnels may seem like changing a methodology...

    Price gives permission bar by bar, lock-in on a bar allows the test procedure to commence on the indepenedent variable (volume). Price cases define the permission granting cases. we all see the translation facet most easily. An odd harmonic example is a neat one: the doji ending a...

    thanks for your snap shot. Make DOM and T&S same height as DOM. On DOM you are missing "wall" type data so add that for 10 to 20 ticks. Dump th profile on DOM. Put DOM in upper right and T&S below it. Cut width of OTR to 1/2 and Add the STR/SQU to the lower right corner. Add...

    Update. I interviewed the team as we traded on Thursday. A shift in operation begins next week. To that end I am writing up all the details that came up in the interviewing. they will be arranged under two main headings: Annotating and logging AND monitoring and running the trading...

    I am getting my butt handed to me on a daily basis!

    43 Lats require three bars to be defined. Bar 1 has H and L. bars two and three cannot exceed H and L. After bar 3 (bar 4 and onward) the close cannot exceed the H and L. If and when the close exceeds H or L, then a BO has occurred. To fit the lats into the trading approach I...

    Welcome to the world of considering the relationship of bar price volatility to bar price overlap. To calm your calculating mind add the 30 min TF and use a channel approach on the 30 min TF. Fail safe eases yo into a faster fractal relationship with the market. This means you have to...

    I am getting my butt handed to me on a daily basis!

    thanks fo Q. Many people use multiple Time Frames (TF's); three is most common. for years the former trading room in tucson used a two minute YM and a 5 minute ES. The Ym leads the ES anyways, so why not use adjacent fractals in adjacent markets. A TF is different tnan a fractal and most...

    Most of the people say Time Series doesn't work, why?

    Your landing pad quests are where you will wind up. Time series and time series analysis is what a class of people use who are also doing landings. The alternative is certainly a stepping stone going forward. BUT you would have to drop this latest topic of your quest. Let us know if...

    I think this is proceeding in super manner. Big plusses are that you DO use the tables. you Do see the sequences. you are beginning to interlock the OOE's for various things. I am oreinting to building with you instead of going from concept to detail. read the Behavioral Finance 5...

    Makiing a catalog of each of the 35 EE's is a good idea. Starting with the PP's is best since they occur most often. As do the failsafe two items since they are so frequent. Print in portrait and label by date and bar. File in chron since first examples are good exmples. Tab nuances you...
