Has anyone out there learned Joe Ross's trading methods and traded with them successfully? I keep testing out his methods, mainly Ross Hooks and ledges, and the various filters he discusses in the books (although he does not necessarily recommend them), and the patterns still seem difficult to...

Has anyone attended any of Steve Nison's candlestick trading seminars and utilized the methods to improve there trading? If you have, do you find what he teaches to be materially beneficial and profitable? How would you rate his teachings overall?

I have seen several of your posts on Woodies CCI. I have to say that I put up a post recently asking for anyone to provide proof that anyone has used Woodies system profitably over time and not one person could do this. All the responses to my thread were negative. One question is fair in...

I have been reading numerous posts on the web indicating that trading with Woodies CCI system is a fraud and that the moderators in the rooms on his site acknowledge that they don't really make money with his methods. Many have said that Woodie himself does not make any money with it. Does...

P.S. I meant that I have been profitable for 8 of the 10 months that I have day traded, not 8 of 12. I gave you my annualized return of 42% because I have averaged 3.5% per month during my 10 months which is a 42% annualized rate of return. I think any trader who is going to teach you...

You ask a very good question - perhaps the most valid of all trading questions. Don't let any of the rude responses get to you. It's natural to receive them when asking this question. I have received numerous rude responses when asking the question of what is a reasonable return on your...

I keep receiving e-mails from Hawkeye Traders (www.hawkeyetraders.com). Has anyone used them and obtained good results? Any other thoughts?

Beebers: Thank you for responding. I trade the SPY and XLE (oil index). I also trade individual stocks. I have about $2,000 to spend. I don't need any coaching on psychology as I am very disciplined and stick with my trading plan. I need someone who makes money and can show me how to...

Agreed. Thank you for your response.

austinp, my apologies if you run coiledmarkets and I offended you. Your handle sounds remarkably close to the name of the guy that runs that site. A friend of mine viewed one of your recent videos and told me that you said your objective is to make 100 points in the TF each month risking 1...

ScrapGF, you don't limit your number of trades. Since there are thousands of equities to trade, and only a limited number of forex spreads and currencies, by definition less instruments yield less trades per day, week, month, etc.

ammo, thank you for the constructive response.

ScapGF, those returns are possible. I know people who get them. Go to Coiledmarkets.com. The head trader there claims better returns. The issue you raise, that it's impossible to sustain such returns is correct. Once you get a $100,000 account above a certain amount, which is some where...

.....you also asked what I trade. I day trade the SPY, XLE, IWM and some stocks when they are in trend with the SPY.

Thank you for responding. I day trade. I want to make 100 to 150% per year on my day trading account. I am told that is not that high for skilled day traders.

I have been day trading for about 5 months and have reached the point where I now make just a little bit. I am looking for an effective coach or website that can teach me to be highly profitable. Can anyone recommend a coach or website that provides good education and that also has a...

Has anyone found a way to trade Joe Ross's hooks and ledges profitably with more than 50% winning trades and average winner to average losing trade > 2:1?

Jaytrade: Thank you very much for your thoughtful and non-sarcastic answer. Based on my first three months of trading in which I am making about 6% per month, your answer that one should shoot for 10% per month, even in day trading, seems very reasonable and conservative. Good luck in...
