    Blow Up Day!!!!

    It's the reason I tolerate you skrilla'. Losers aren't so bad. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to illustrate the premise.

    You have described it perfectly, especially the stock selection criteria. As always GP, nice job.

    Blow Up Day!!!!

    Only in professional trading and professional sports is it okay not to be near 100% right all the time. And of course it starts from grade school. An acceptable losing percentage.... what is that? I come from medicine to this biz. Being accurate is everything in this day and time. Think of...

    Lots of monitors just to show off?

    Mine too. I have 3 19" monitors that do the trick. Besides, I'm in an office by myself. Who am I going to impress? :)

    S&P 500 looking very toppy

    Heck no don't stop Vision'! Your posts are the stuff this website is all about. Very nice charts. Although I love the divergence as well so maybe I'm biased. :) Anyway, I look forward to your ongoing commentary as events unfold.

    Trading stocks with the 15 min chart

    The caveat of course is the exit. The methods I am using here are simple. The time frame is short enough to be less affected by market trend than a daily chart, thus affording decent profit potential regardless of overall market direction. Girlpower, as you said today elsewhere, even the...

    Scalps or scalping?

    A 10 second trade for 5 cents.

    S&P 500 looking very toppy

    I agree that it looks toppy. My reasons are these: -the daily chart has formed an macd divergence; -yesterday's trade down to the 40 sma did not bounce; If we do break down, my target would be the 200 day sma. -subjectively I just don't think the 500 has spent enough time hating...

    Blow Up Day!!!!

    Amen. But I don't think new traders should be trading the eminis. Trading happens too quickly there for the young trading mind to learn effectively. Surely some will succeed but usually at a substantial cost. However, trading 100 shares is perfect. Stick to your plan and you can trade a...

    paying attention to details

    Same for me howard'. If I win too many in a row, and it might not even be that many, my trading gets worse. Mistakes, mental-lapses, etc. Almost the worst thing for me is to be up big early in the day. LOL - that gives me the whole rest of the day to get into trouble! I think you should take...

    Trend Days

    No posts deleted by me. Sometimes my browser spreds the pages all over the screen. Weird. Yeah, I haven't looked at futures even one time to see how it works. Awhile back, on a similar topic, one of the members posted that the method didn't work as well as it had previously. Of course I...

    Trend Days

    Hi man, nice posts here. Just to illustrate, GE on Jun 24 was an inside day, and also at least an NR7. The day following is an excellent example of what "seems" to commonly occur. I know db says he is an S/R trader for example and with him, at least from his posts, all else is nonsense...

    Trading stocks with the 15 min chart

    Still short CSCO from 18.42. This position is up 66 cents, the account is now up 50 cents. Max profit potential thus far has been 71 cents on this trade. And don't forget, you have 3-4 or more of these going.

    Cutting losses is for losers

    I think mm has moved on. Lets put this thread and ET out of misery and close the thread.

    S&P 500 looking very toppy

    Nice call! I read your Radid journal. Great work there overall too. Hopefully you might start another that will benefit the members the way your previous one did. Check the number of views when you want to see if anyone is reading you.

    the problem of swing trading

    When I am looking at historical daily, weekly, and monthly charts I never go back to any low or high and search the news archive. Maybe I should. But I don't. I don't even like to have the chart on bars or candles. Give me the close only.

    Trading stocks with the 15 min chart

    The 60 minute has sure turned out to be good. It is clearly at a consolidation (pivot) level. Whether you are long or short you'll know in a bit which way you should be.

    MrMarket's absence explained

    It was the threats to kill mrmarket that killed your post. That's an immediate no no. Had to be done. :) PS - it must be terrible for you though, because so many Iraqi men have moustaches. But I hope you're having a great trading day!!! :)
