No noise, not for me as the zigging and zagging indicate the bears and bulls are pushing against one another. “How” it is done and what those bars in the zig zag look look like convey, at least to me, valuable information about who will probally win when the zigging and zagging stops thus i can...

There is no noise in the markets. I suppose it is a matter of perspective but I see no noise. Ever. Everything thing that happens, happens for a reason, so for me ...no noise.

Explain what you mean. Thanks.

I took some trades in both ES and NQ for the purpose of showing how in these SPB bull trends one can trade hold longer and get a little more for their effort. So when these type of senarios appear and the market is showing this type of dynamics ...slow grind up..small PB's looks like paint...

I am done for the day as I just have other things to do. However, it is a great day for trading These SBP trend days are good and strong trends. You just have to watch for reversal around 12 to 2 central time and be ready if they come. But as long as the trend is up and grinding it is a strong...

What you call them absolutely doesn’t matter. Their function and percentage of functionality are what matters.

Bear channels and bull flags are one and the same. That is, they both have the same function. The flag posted by Pek was in the form of a bear channel. But it was a bull flag simply because the previous trend was bullish. Bear channels have about a 70% chance that the successful BO, when it...

Like in stinkin thinking.....??

I am finished for the day here are the results. I didn't take many trades in the NQ. Got too busy yapping on the phone with a friend. I may post tomm trades if I trade tomm. Then that will pretty much rap it up. I think I will have posted enough trades to illustrate my points over the last two...

Thanks. That and some trades were pre RTH so slower dynamics. I generally like to be in the market in short bursts. I figure my money is ONLY at risk when it is in the market. I had rather grab a profit wait for small pb and enter again. That way I am locking in profits and compounding profits...

It can, at times, a appear to be easy but really never is easy. Traders are placing bets on futures outcomes that are largely unknowable. In addition to that, our brains are wired to avoid risk. We tend to think in linear terms. Because we believe math is an exact science we construct such ideas...

Larry when are you going to put your book on the market?

ROFLMAO!

A trader cannot be an intraday trader over the long haul and have such a dismal win rate.

Storyline to be successful. At least goals to strive towards. (at least for me, the way I trade) 1) high win rate 2) average winner bigger than average loser 3) largest winner bigger than largest loser 4) net at end of the day in the positive after comm. bye

I am stopping for the day. Unfortunately I am a diabetic and when my brain isn't working well...well it is time to stop while I am ahead. I struggled reading the chart and getting the direction right in the ES, and had too many losing trades. A perhaps meaningful day for me by some on ET'ers...

ok skippy wanna see trades today. No one is asking you to teach your coveted skills. Just post us a few live trades.

Yada yada yada. ROFLMAO

There is a plan. My plan is the markets plan. It writes it for me. I follow along. And dip into my tool box of learned techniques and tactics when the market is telling me which tool would probally be best to use for the moment. The work is learning about all the tools and practicing using them...
