    Why do I see "Trends" in Randomly Generated Data?

    I don't know which order to give you some pages to read. It is one of the funniest books a person will ever read. Read pp 273 to see how niave these guys were by nearly the end of the book. For kicks also read pp 197 from the paragraph beginning: " We should have focused on this...

    You can see that by getting to a great conclusion, it may be possible for others who show up to get to the same place.

    The 1, 2, and 3 is to use a leading indicator of what you describe. This is best done by comparing smart money and others from a timing point of view. The advance warning does provide time for 3 to 4 partial fills of a 5 partial fill trading level that is many times the capacity of the market...

    Very very nice post. The mathematics of channels is precise. There is nothing lost in terms of precision when using a family of concurrent channels. Wathematically using time and price to define channels creates parallelograms. They overlap fortunately and mathematically the optimum...

    I am an amateur. This is different from being a part of the financial industry. Thus, I have turned down doing business for about 50 years out of 52 years of trading. Not having people ask me to do business is a goal. I am in total agreement with you for people who are trying to make a...

    I think it is a bad idea for person to choose to do something for the wrong reasons. Person to person the same reason could be bad for one and good for another. I know alot of people hit the PnL to find a reson to follow one person or another. It may work for some people and not for...

    Cool. Do we have the same reason? I believe that there are lots of reasons.

    Why don't you sit down for a moment and think about what is hanging you up? There is no test mandated to trade perfectly on each top and bottom. Reversing is something that is a good idea when you get to the place where you CAN simply recognize that a reversal is an exit followed closely by...

    Trust yourself; you created that Stochastic. Use it and make a little repair here and there. Go for it.

    The only print discussed on the web was a 31 partial fill on 100,000 share trade that was done in 11 accounts at one brokerage firm. A FedEx was used from broker to broker where the recipient made the call. It was only a 7 digit net. The world is a funny place with respect to money...

    I posted your chart. All I did was note the trades signaled by your chart accoding to your propriatary stochastic. I guess where we are is that I read signals from your chart. They were all tradeable especially if the %D were showing too. I put the crossovers in as flags. You showed the...

    All indicators "flicker". In real time you know the entry ahead of the signal exact time. The problem most people have is that they simply do not know the math of the lines so they cannot "read" the indicators. Trader666 put up my defaults to convey the pied piper (me) part of his life...

    That's your chart I put up for last Friday. I use the Qcharts equations on YM 2 minutes and ES 5 minutes. I log (landscape) using MADA and there are 13 indicator columns under M The vocabulary of symbols includes up to 15 symbols for a given column. For any given day I do about 4 log...

    I recommend that people start with the "standards". For example on pp 352 of Magee (7TH) you can see the original and the updated original. If a person is making a third pass on the standards, then I would recommend a book like the one I named before: "Trading from A to Z" It is written...

    Lets see how the extremes of the %K are noticed. %K is used for expressing holding a position by dealing with keeping an instrument as long as it is overbought or undersold during the trends of overbought and undrsold. The safety of overbought and undersold cannot be over emphasized. When...

    Raw values accumulate every bar and they are placed in storage. How many are stored is determined by the segment of time used to get the H and L. After that the set is determined and can be fed to the %K calculator. The raw values that are more recent are used. How many? This is a...

    The numerator. the numerator relates the close (the last value) to the range as a %. Logic prevailed;either the high or the low could have been used. The low was chosen to keep things right side up. And the low that was chosen was the low in the denominator.

    As anyone can see there are three parts to any Stochastic. I labelled this person's X, Y, and Z since he has not presented the three values. X is the raw value Y is the %K and Z is the %D You have announced here my three values for the dual stochasitcs I started using long ago...

    Here is another person's signal system. I annotated on it to show the signals it generates in three colors. the signal is the slow line and the white flags re where the unshown fast line crosses to generate the trade signal. Obviously he has this automated and it turns out the segements...
