    Romeo has asked that the voting results be zeroed and a new poll started to see if there has been a change in ET sentiment. Even if you voted previously, you can vote again.

    Trading stocks with the 15 min chart

    Today has been kind and illustrated this thought about preventing repeated whipsaws. And it also has illustrated what I mentioned early on about ignoring very small breaks, ie., show me some commitment. The channel was drawn with the lower boundary at 19.09. The upper boundary was 19.18. The...

    Trading stocks with the 15 min chart

    'Jinx - as always, my methods are simple. Stock selection involves putting up a 15 min 200sma chart and running thru a bunch of stocks. I want to see how much they fluctuate, how smooth it looks, the profit potential. All of it is subjective, but trying to look at it with an objective view that...

    I don't equate training with intellect. And, I am well-trained. :) Perhaps it gauges in some way intellectual capability achieved to date, but I wouldn't say that holding a Wharton MBA is the pinnacle of intellectual achievement. Certainly it can be presumed that the holder of a Wharton...

    Trading stocks with the 15 min chart

    Here is something I have been thinking about as a means that attempts to prevent being whipped more than once. You see the low close so far today... that was near the first short. Then price reversed for Whipsaw #1, let's call it W1. Now price has turned down a bit and is presently trading...

    winrate (not profitability) - intradaytrading

    Nice work on the psychology component. You didn't mention the $ component, which is totally your business and not mine. It sure seems like you are looking at a lot of things to help you capture 1-2 points on the ES. I don't daytrade very much, and now never the ES. It required too much...

    You know you love the big guy...he's BAAAACK

    Wow! I confess that I have read many of your posts and find them well-written. But to find out that it has been done with a 3rd grade education!!! that is remarkable. I think Jethro Bodine made it that far, and he wasn't nearly as literate as you are. :) Seriously, you make a good point, the...

    winrate (not profitability) - intradaytrading

    Exactly, and you are asking a lot of yourself to get it right over and over again, quickly, using the 60 moment chart. I suspect your account size might be the limiting factor. If it is, you will find it very difficult to take the longer intraday moves, because the looser stop means bigger...

    Consolidations - intraday

    SP500, Dow30, Nasdaq... for you index traders, this has to be the set up of a lifetime. Friday's action as represented by the 60 and 15 min charts should lead to something fairly tradeable.

    If AAA' is MrMarket, then you are Alan Greenspan. So tell me Al, does being the Fed chairman make you a chick magnet? Back to MrMarket.... the fact is the guy picks some good stocks. Perhaps his money management / risk management is not conventional, so don't use it. Use your own. Now...

    Trading stocks with the 15 min chart

    CSCO has put the 15 min 200 sma in play the last three hours of Friday. Hopefully the consolidation will continue to occur above the ma and break below it. The 15 min 200 sma is considered very important by many... so I have read.... so a little consolidation break with a moving average cross...

    ????????? :eek: Edited the next morning: Somehow I didn't see the introduction "from the yahoo group" last nite when I first read the post. Hence my reply. Without seeing that lead-in, it appeared that AAA' was MrMonster, as one PM i received put it. Whew... all is right in the world...

    anybody successfull with breakouts?

    SoCal thanks for the link. Pound' that's a very reasonable method. I have not been trading NR's this year but watch them when I see them. Regardless of the recent "testing" on ET, they work. One of the problems with the testing is that it presumed a hold till the end of the day thing, because...

    Trading INVERSLY

    Trading the opposite of what you or your method say to do presumes that the market is bi-directional. It is not. Don't forget about sideways.

    S&P 500 looking very toppy

    I got what you were saying Romeo. :) When you step up to the plate like you do, they will throw you the heat all day buddy. I gotta say though, I never see you desiring credibility. There's no doubt you want to be right.... who doesn't? Today's action certainly was suspect. Follow thru is...
