    Beyond the hype of hershey futures method journal

    Your wish has been granted. There are posted hardline quantitative rules. So far you have just done a partial once over lightly, if that. Don't worry you will get there. Several people have taken this up to second derivatives and their work was correct. None are Americans. LOL...the...

    An FTT on level 3 is and FTT on level 2 and the FTT on level 2 is an FTT on level 1. what follows an FTT on level 1 is a BO of the level 1 RTL. you also have the S/S going off 20 to 30 ahead of the FTT's and you have the WALL on the DOM showing up at least four ticks before the Wall becomes...

    You will soon enough. The addition of the YM introduced Intermediate trading to SCT. the last stages (sheels) of beginner got two levels working and this provided 15 trades a day. Since YM leads ES at turning points we can use this concept to polish the turns learned in Beginner...

    Here you are discussing Advanced Beginner. You trade level 2, the traverses of level 3. The point 1's of level 2 begin your new trades. About 15 a day. Basically you are trading the long diagonals of parallelograms. This means that every trade begins on a RTL and ends on a LTL. soak...

    Beyond the hype of hershey futures method journal

    You need to review your conclusions. Money is made continually in SCT. It is based upon three things: 1. being in the market 2. being on the right side of the market, and 3. price changing. At point 1 of a channel you have a binary indicator that is communicating to you. It...

    On different skill levels different reversal times are used. Beginners use level 3 signals and only 4 to 7 occur during a day. Advanced Beginners and Beginner Internals deal with about 15 reversals a day. Intermediate involves beginning to become more effective and more efficient...

    This is simply a manual skill level issue. Anyone can make effectiveness and efficiency considerations to suit their taste. we always recommend working at a particular skill level for a period before moving on to a greater skill level. Optimization is not what is on the table in adjusting...

    Zug, Switzerland

    I lived over the hill in Adlisvil for a while; I worked in Kilchberg. Rail into Zurich is like a clock. Compared to Greenwich (Before) and Bucks County, PA (After) there wasn't much change in life style costs. Some things in Europe were more expensive; most were less expensive. The...

    Technical Analysis Doesn't Work

    Lets be adult. When I say patterns are defined; they are. The prima facia reason that they aredefined is that I DEFINE THEM mathematically. You may not have taken the time to do this. When I read papaers by others, I check to see if they have done the defining required as a beginning...

    Technical Analysis Doesn't Work

    The basic concept for trading patterns is simple when understood. All patterns are defined. A definition that has high utility is in the form of a sequence of events. Each element of the sequence is stated as an easily programmable "proof".. The term proof means that the software ststes...

    Making a living with a $30K account

    4 out of 5 people think I am full of shit. The ratio has shifted a little in the last five to ten years. That is "overwelming" by any standard. Where I hang out, the ratio is a little different. People who have looked at my record do either of two things: coattail trade it or, if...

    Making a living with a $30K account

    Your comment on ranfiel and his decisions and choices is very interesting. It, apparently, deeply affects his ability to contribute. Designers have always chosed what they wish to work on. I sometimes think of three different designers and what they designed. Clocks, hammers and the...

    Should I trade full time???

    I read the thread. There is good news and bad news. The financial situation is as follows and you did not figure this out. Your 600k that returns 60% can support the 200K salary by using 333K of that plus 10% (33K) totalling 366K. The remainder (234K) will grow for the future . Or...

    Technical Analysis Doesn't Work

    You can go back a ways and see where surf started using various words in his vocabulary. Also anyone can make up a dichotomous key to get to any answer he wishes regarding market action. This is not something that may occur to some kinds of people when they think. The increasing use of...

    Cutten's occasional journal of stupidity

    Cutten Registered: Sep 2003 Posts: 2271 08-23-07 05:40 PM I would say that the odds of capturing 3xATR every day are roughly equivalent to the chances of CNN capturing footage of a flying saucer, piloted by Elvis Presley, crashing into Mount Rushmore on Christmas Day. The...

    Poll: Is it humanly possible to capture 3x ATR everday?

    I made a few posts before this one. If you have 20 or 30 questions make a list and I will answer them for you. Your judgements on my commentary is something that you own. you also get the consequences. I would recommend that you get around to taking what I say seriously. It can make...

    Poll: Is it humanly possible to capture 3x ATR everday?

    My rationale does have a backside. It is correct that a person can go around to the other side and take a look. I regard sentiment on two levels and I find that this is productive. a close second to this is the drift of fair value since many arbs use this as a scalping trigger. generally...

    Your observation about market makers (and their profits levels, if you care to) is poignant. Watching these market makers is possible any time as well. Check out the chat room anytime and you can also review the transcripts and a chart to see how the calls are done.
