Maverick, What do you think about shorting the 30-Year (/ZB) here? Not from an ACD perspective just a general Macro call..

So what is everyones favorite markets to trade ACD, and why?

Long /NG at 9:01 am. My stop loss is the A Down.

Yesterday, there was no setup in corn for me to trade, so therefore I didn't trade it. I had a good day trading the Russell 2000 today, lost a little bit trying to catch an upside midday move in Natural Gas, but overall was profitable for the day. Once again, I overtraded though and had no...

Hey everyone. I'm starting this journal in hopes to eliminate self-defeating behavior in my trading. The most difficult part of trading for me has been the following: 1) Having a plan to trade a specific market going into the trading day, and not sticking to it. 2) Not following my...

Mav, I agree completely with your last few posts. I found it interesting too, if you watch the video of Fisher's son that you posted, the CNBC crowd asks him what caused to 10% drop in Crude Oil the day before... His response was in regards to the problems caused by front running and...

Mav, Thanks for the infor. When you say "longer time frame ACD values" do you mean that you use something similar to the rolling 3 day pivot as described by Fisher, or take opening range of first day of trading and use that as your breakout/stop placement for the rest of the week? A little...

Ghost of Cutten, I'm right with you on that call. How are you setting up your short? I'm thinking that possibly because the market gapped because of overseas trading driving up prices during the US holiday, profit taking tomm after the gap could take out alot of stops. Where are you placing...

Does anyone here have a consensus about what the consistently "best" markets to trade ACD are? I myself would say that Soybeans are the best grain market to trade. Over the last couple of years that I have been manually backtesting results, I've only seed about 4 losing months over the entire...

CALLumbus, I'll try to answer a couple of your questions to the best of my ability. admis.com (Archer Daniels Midland) has a page called "knowledge center". Click that page, and then click "report calender". That calender provides all pertinent reports as it pertains to the agricultural...

Mav, Thanks a bunch for releasing some of your tweaks to the ACD system. After calculating the prior days pivot, you don't worry about the overnight session in regards to the next mornings opening when using the pivot range? (you don't worry about the pivot becoming invalidated based on the...

Maverick, I know you don't want to release your proprietary research about ACD, and understand completely, but I was wondering if I could just ask you a few questions and you can answer whatever you feel comfortable with: Do you use the number line scoring method for the commodities you...

The idea of the energy market being manipulated seems like a bit of a stretch to me. since the 90's, trillions of dollars have been injected into the US economy. There was once a time in this country where these dollars went into things company sponsored pension plans, infrastructure...

Hey everyone, I'm new to this thread, but have read over it and am very happy to find a place where other traders are discussing ACD. I personally trade ACD, and have had a good deal of success with it so far. Like Maverick, and other posters have pointed out, ACD is not the Holy Grail of...
