Oh lighten up db. You are so predictable. I should have just come out and said that for a thread with the title "Keeping It Simple", the method you have been describing is anything but; however, previously any post by anyone that disagrees with you in the slightest incurs a defensive and...

And I thought this thread was about keeping it simple. Am I in the wrong place? No, just checked again to be sure. Let's see, so after the entry which is very simple, as any breakout entry is, then it becomes a simple matter of: applying simple reversal techniques if I subjectively determine...

Cathy I'm with you. I posted a similar idea a little bit ago on the Keeping it Simple thread. The monkey thing is very similar. It is really just a rehash of the trend within a trend concept. They all work if traded properly. I agree with your previous posts that even though the method is...

Yes that can be the case. It can be traded in such a way that will provide less than satisfactory results. I guess that was your experience dbphoenix. Tough break. And of course, "satisfactory" is so subjective. Say for example 3 pts in the ES or 6 in the NQ, very popular vehicles, might be...

:D :D :D What a holiday gift this is for me. Thank you so much. Here is a simple futures method that works very well. Using an intermediate length moving average and a very short one, trade in the direction of the longer one when the shorter one crosses in that direction. Enter at the open...

No post has been deleted that had any of your strategy in it dbphoenix. I copy and save all of the posts that I delete. After a time I delete those from my files too. Your most recent post on this thread is the first that you have shared your strategy. Were it not, the two members who have...

Opm, try PM'ing Volker Knapp. He is very good with the WL code. :)

Samba, He might have redone the online course in the last 2 years or so, but I think the book is very complete and there wouldn't be much to gain from taking the course. Each day the website posts the stocks that fall into the different categories of setups he describes in the book. It is...

Yeah but nitro, you're a programmer in your previous life! Everything to you should be boiled down to 3-4 pages tops. You know, the less code you have, the fewer bugs.... :)

Alan is a straight shooter. You cannot go wrong with his site or material. He has always communicated directly with me. I did the online course about 3 years ago. My book review is quoted on his site. A+ for that fella. I am glad to see his success growing. And the coiled spring is very...

When you speak of 15 sec and 30 sec bars then you want to scalp. If you are looking to scalp, using a momentum indicator set very fast will be a good start. Websites such as clearstation.com and stockcharts.com provide good discussions about momentum indicators. Warning: you will hear that...

The opening range breakout strategy, moving average crossover strategy, fibonacci retracement strategy, Bollinger Band penetration strategy, etc., are excellent strategies for trading. From experience I know that each of these strategies is applicable to equities and futures. Exclusively...

yo de. The network update said there was a prob with the data feed and the engineers were on it. I haven't checked now, so I don't know if it is fixed. :)

I like it. I like the CANSLIM method. I like the doctor's checkup. I subscribe. :)

Now that's what I'm talikin' about Mr. Mays! :)

Sweet Babak! Thx for the heads up. This is a divergence I have not looked for previously Babak. Is it one you routinely use? I guess I'm really asking if this has historical significance or is it just an acute finding. Thanks again. :)

Wow such support! I am sure this is exactly what one has in mind when he begins a journal... badgering to live up to others' expectations, and disparagement if he doesn't. Not quite the goals I would have in mind... but hey, that's just me. I would rather encourage than discourage...

The Startegy Trading forum is designed just for that. The participants so far have been very original, enlightening, and helpful. Topics stay on topic, and bashing of others is absolutely prohibited. :)

and higher still before I call it a day. C'mon west coasters, and pacific rim, and the early-rising european crowd too. :)

hannibal, Interesting reading. The predictions page is quite clear. I will print it out at my office tomorrow and have a look. I have seen something similar to your model before but I cannot remember where. But that doesn't matter. Thanks for the link and the post. :)
