    Including typos and MB's portfolio balance, he spent 60 days digging out of his 911 hole to neutral and then he wrote off the 60 days as time that didn't count in his BP. In general, a person has to look at trading from the viewpoint of what the capital involved means in terms of permanent...

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

    We agreed a couple of years ago to not go any further in ET or any archive or any invitation only forums to go beyond expert mechanical trading and what it takes to build the mind to do it. The 2007 syllabus was constructed to reach that goal and several times we adjusted the learning pace...

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

    Back to basics. Lines of code and scripts in the code is not what is on the table. Let is go that you do not have a handle on that. that part is prima fascia. Your goal is to prove things like: 1. Any concept you read from me is wrong. 2. The way I use concepts to trade is wrong...

    I do not know. When he first came here he was a newbie. He grew out of that role. At some point he handed out his money wiring info to a local because he wanted to acquire some used books. So he was making his name and bank info available periodically. And at that time he was deeply...

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

    Wouldn't someone that trades 20 - 50 contracts have a different opinion about how much they can achieve via ATR analogies in comparison to someone that only trades 1 - 3 contracts. I'm just curious about the Poll here by the OP considering how position size should have impact on the poll...

    you recently posted: "I did use 3 variables: P, V, and A/D. In fact, I used Spydertrader's Wealthlab code to do the scoring (as I've pointed out many times before). As for the rest of your comments, thank you. I'll test them and report back. I have no problem with those conditions because...

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

    Just for conversations sake, how many trades a day do you think I don't do. If I'm an advocate of being in the market all of the time, how much of the day (as a % of RTH) do you think I am dealing with my execution platform? If the market is really moving am I doing a lot of trades? If...

    I'll continue to post here every once in a while. So far we are seeing the poll count rise by portions that are significant. This is not a SRS by any means but anyone keep track can see that the ratio is becoming fairly constant. Another aspect, previously mentioned is that the reporting...

    What is your market/trading paradigm?

    Philosophy threads are rare. Looking at the precursors to modeling and devepment and application is rare. A dichotomous key could be used to reign in the primary considerations and lead the constructer to the details of optimizing through effectiveness and efficiency. The hugeness of...

    Iterative Refinement

    This drill is very important. You get the see the relationship of the periodicities of the three levels of price movement. It explains the the basis of building channels up from adjacent bars (some times three bars) (The M of MADA) and the skill building down from coarse to fine. The...

    Fatigue

    Don't worry about being confused. It is just fine for you to believe we can't (or don't) call tades in advance. I would imagine many people share your views. One of the common ways to ramp people up in skill is to go to where they are mentally while they watch a live display. Picture...
