Hi Everyone; So I've been developing a strategy based on the cash DJIA. I have historical prices that I've developed a model around based on regular trading hours (930am-4pm EST). I think my strategy has decent results; but the problem I've run into is I can't find a futures index that...

Wait for it to come to you?

MrC. I don't know what to say other than thank you. As I'm sure you know, the "strange" people that we meet along the road of life are those that we remember most and help us make life worth living whilst trying not to take ourselves too seriously. At least in my little world... :)

Not to worry MrC. I am a patient fellow. I will continue the work that is necessary as it comes to me.

The relationship is indeed the same; but which variables can you control? They determine the constraints of the problem. I have not heard of Nokia's endeavors, I will have to look into this. Tesla was indeed ahead of his time.

Thank you for the kind words of support RN. I, and I'm sure others, appreciate your insight and sharing. ym

And yes, I totally agree, we are but small pikers in the huge vast financial markets, not even in the noise. It is our job to attach ourselves where the big/smart money is going.

Since I design circuits for cell phones, I am most concerned about battery life, so power consumption is my main concern, p=v*i. Of course it is difficult to keep reducing the voltage and still be able to detect a 1 or a 0.

So what motivates the big players, I ask myself? It is to shake us little guys out of as much $$ as possible...how do they do that? Through deception. BSEE does mean boring shit every day, the pay is good, but the work is BORING!!! As well as unfulfilling. Electrical Engineer just in...

You're making me laugh, MrC. I appreciate your patience...this is my thick side coming out! I have not looked at the market as art before. It is probably my background, I have a BSEE and am always looking for a #'s solution to every problem. I want to see the big boobs!

Ah, good point MrC! I missed that, 1st of all it doesn't touch it, but it also looks like a fib#, not to bring TA into this!

Yes, MrC, that is all true. And it is the 1st decision that one acts on that counts! It is a puzzle and a mental challenge at the same to time, to trust yourself to put your hard earned $$ on the line.

Well, in the last box, there are two pushes low, one is more pronounced, the 1st one, and the second is just a spike.

This is just like trading! :) My only concern is that the push thru the high is the pros running the stops that the shorts would put in to protect themselves, thus grabbing liquidity to force the market back down. But I will stay with my current position and ride the market high for at...

I do not like changing my mind as it shows my indecision that hurts any trader; but after I posted my original thoughts on the chart, I started thinking about it further, and that is what I described above, since this is a learning exercise, i will change my mind. The two attempts to push the...

Well, i wouldn't be too surprised. I see that at the very right side of that chart, price got above the last couple of retests of the high, so after one or two tests and failures, if price then extends beyond the high, then it will probably keep going. This is where I've been struggling. I...

MrC. In my humble opinion, I would anticipate the price to bounce off the high it's at now and trace back to the last yellow line by the end of the next box.

MrCharts; I suppose I have picked up some knowledge along my circuitous route thus far in my trading career. Yet I still consider myself a newb! :) I am constantly trying to learn and distill information. It is true that price will do what it wants to do and we as traders must base our...

Well, I'll give it a shot. The 1st picture I identified with, "high low sequence", because of the deception in ones mind that can come about by not fully understanding what the candle, in this case (but could be art or any other interpretive subject), is telling us. In trading, it comes down...

I see no one is willing to step up to the plate, so I will! I like two pictures (I hope that is ok): "high low sequence" and "Hammer/Hanging man". I am just a newb; been poking around the forums off and on trying to observe and take in and filter information. I like your style...
