    What's your Exit Strategy

    Trading is like being a detective. Recently you changed your alias, but you didn't change your syntax. Walls are very useful for watch ing the future views of "big money". This phenomena is called "telegraphing" or "tells" for short. Big money plays several "games" and they show the...

    What's your Exit Strategy

    Walls are known price limits. They can be used. The volume OOE is an approach that involves determining the time of a reversal quite precisely since volume leads price. In trading, taking the full offer of the market is not a known practice of "big money". Big money creates the walls and...

    atticus' "ship it" vol trading journal

    I agree. Also, SCT had a S to L reversal one bar before the announcement. The "luck' comments are the viewpoint of people old commented upon right at the beginning of the thread.

    CW may suggest this to you. Both are used by those who do not know what is going on. Both leave money on the table. A new phrase is coming into the picture; it shows more about the CW type thinking. To extract the full offer of the market, it is best to use leading indicators of price...

    So, if you have, say, 4 good setups

    Thank you for your response; I appreciate it. Since I am older and have traded for over 1/2 a century, how the market works is familiar to me. The swan that was thought up recently by someone has always been my greatest money velocity opportunity. To be holding positions to have the...

    Trading Wisdom for Aspiring Hedge Fund Managers

    There is no association in the CW between trading and financial markets and what is called in ET, critical thinking. This thread has a few "CW type truisms" and none of them come from critical thinking (nor to they get any significant results) in the intellectual sense of thinking.

    How to trade a stock with almost perfect trend?

    Your chart is showing that you cannot buy very much stock and, for sure, you could not sell it when you want to. Chart fails to pass any tests. So you need a good stock selector. Read HTMMIS by WJO'N.

    So, if you have, say, 4 good setups

    I'm in the market all of the time. My view is that the market has a sentiment and being on the correct side of the market is appropriate at all times. I was wondering what % of RTH you are making money. I suppose I am asking to get acquainted with the quality of your set ups. The...

    Trading Wisdom for Aspiring Hedge Fund Managers

    Looks kinda neat these days......... Volume has dropped off to before this Depression level of current volume. So this is a market based on inflows. Right now the volume is demonstating out flows. Those who know what a climax run is will not agree with Bender. Why should they, they...

    Advice for New Automated Trader

    Most people never see the markets. Most vendors will not export data to you from their visualizing platforms. So you go directly to the markets to get the data supply. So you have two sources: one to look at and one to feed your coded ATS. as I said the 1000% a year that took 15...

    Advice for New Automated Trader

    If your goal is to be rich, then take a shortcut. I handed a one pager to an exhibitor and in 15 minutes he had a system running and the Sharpe he calculated was over 60. He did the work twice since he didn't believe the results on his first pass. Use any drag and drop logic system...
