I haven't been on here or posted in quite some time now. I remember I used to come here to look for the holy grail or advice on how to trade. I guess I've come a long way cause now the only advice I look for is to look inside myself and my charts.. I know what I'm supposed to do.. but many...

I"m reading through them again. but one question that may be addressed in the thread. Are the 1 minute charts effective in overnight trading?

Great. Thanks for the help.

I tried to send you a PM but site would not allow it. I'm looking for the 2 threads you started outlining the straight line method. I did a search but can't seem to locate it, you have way too many posts. Can you give me the title or the link? If you remember what I'm referring to. thanks

looking for a countdown timer. One that will reset every 5 minutes and continue. there was a downloadable file on this forum at one time.. I've searched but can not find it. anyone have anything similar available? thanks for any help

Global futures

looking for suggestions for any good charting packages out there. I'm pretty simple and don't need anything elaborate as long as can do the following: candlestick futures simple movg. avg. 2,5, 10, 30, 60 minute charting I don't use any technicals other than movg. avg.'s I used...

Not sure where I'd find one that wouldn't charge me an arm and a leg. And I live in New Orleans. Not many traders if any around here.

Hey Mark, Yes I do still trade while at work, good memory. Your point about being distracted is right on the money. But there's more to it than that. It's also my emotions.. I talked myself out of taking that tade near the movg. avg. which would have been the less riskier entry. and...

I continuously make the same mistakes over and over and over. The attached chart shows a buy in ES off 2min. chart.. Trend is heading UP (on this timeframe) BUT:: What I failed to see was the Trendline I have annotated. (wasn't annotated at time of trade) and my plan says to not...

Channels even appear on 2 min. charts like on ER today.

What about 2 support levels. attached is a 5min chart of Tnotes. As you can see a channel has formed.. and there is price support before reaching additional support at the bottom of the channel. With Daily trend up do you take the more aggressive approach and look to buy at 124.160 area?

Similar to as Wolfpacker stated. Once that double bottom action occured.. then price came up and made a Higher swing high on that time frame.. You should be looking for longs. I've learned this the hard way. What always happened and still does happen occasionally is I get tunnel vision and...

Anyone care to share how they would enter into the trend once it has progressed? If this is buried in the thread I apologize. I haven't had a chance to read it from beginning to end just yet.

Great charts and insights NoDoji. thanks for the input. A lot of what you are posting here I believe are the missing pieces to my trading plan.

Not sure if any of you have gone through this. My Daughter is about to go to College in Iowa. the out of state tuition fee is $17,000 per year more than in state fees. I"m wondering if I can generate trading income.. Put my home state down as Iowa for trading only. I still have a full...

2 completely different things in my opinion. Well at least for the way I trade. Even though you have it called correctly you still need to be ready and able to pull the trigger when needed. when the trade presents itself otherwise you're chasing which is never good. I find myself being...

Yes.. of course.. which is why I put my thoughts in writing in this thread. I've identified the problems, now it's just a matter of figuring out a way to address and correct them.

I haven't set a limit but I probably should. In the past what killed me was 3 or 4 small profitable days followed by a big losing day of like $300 - $400..

I've actually read that already but it's been over a year or so. I will reread this weekend cause it was a great piece. Has anyone actually used the exercises recommended?
