Thanks. That looks good once I figure out how to get the Canadian $ into an Oanda account. The money is not coming from my account.

I will be receiving $75k in Canadian dollars that I need to convert to US dollars. Would it make sense to open a forex account to save money on the conversion? My broker, Thinkorswim, does not accept Canadian currency. Is there a US forex broker that does?

My comment is based on this statement from Dan:

Dan has an interesting concept - take a public options forum and create a thread for your own personal journal. Just imagine what this forum would be like if everyone did that.

Can you please explain what you mean by "effective" tick data? I'm trying to figure out if I can use my IB data feed to get reliable tick charts.

TRO, I'm trying to automate as much of jjrvat's concept as I can. Does your digital compass let you know if the waves are making higher highs or lower low? I'm having difficulty visualizing that.

ESR, How long did it take you to learn to trade this method well enough to be consistently profitable?

ESR, Do I recall correctly that you go back 21 days to determine S/R levels?

Excellent. Thanks.

Is there a way to search within threads?

I've read 25 pages of this thread and got to the point where a lot of bickering started. Did ES post his setups? If so, can someone please point me to the info.

Thanks for the great thread. I've been reading this thread for several days and am currently on page 58. I just read a post from more than a year ago where jjrvat said he was planning on posting a pdf summary. Was that done? If so, could someone either attach it again or point me to the page...

It looks to me like the book by dbphoenix is a 23 page excerpt of a book that is not free. I just downloaded the dbphoenix ebook. It has the most unusual opening I've ever seen for a trading book: "Many years ago (Really in Market terms this is like Dogs Years in Reverse)..... i.e...

I used TradeStation years ago and I found it easy to program. But now that they've changed how they do business I no longer want to use TS. I tried Sierra Chart. It uses a C like programming language which I did not care for. I'm assuming that TS uses what is called a high-level language...

I'm wondering if anyone has done a summarization of NTW31's method. I think there is some good stuff in this thread but I found it very hard to follow.

Thank you euclid. That is very helpful.

If I am trading a pair that does not contain $US such as EUR/JPY and my account is in US $, is my trade subject to US $ fluctuations during the time I am in the EUR/JPY trade? I don't understand what actually takes place if I put on a EUR/JPY trade.

Is there any advantage to using Sierra's Forex data in addition to IB?

I figured out that I need to delete the symbol and download it again. Thanks for the helpful info guys.
