    Need Advice on Book

    Thanks. I have been trying to find something that Wyckoff wrote but I keep hitting dead ends. I always find 2 or 3 books, but none have very much information related to volume. Does anyone know where to find books written by Wyckoff. I tried Amazon and Traders Library.

    Autotrading with TradeStation

    System for small, steady profits on the Dow?

    This question is ridiculous. There is no such thing. You can not expect to get an answer to something like this. Geezy peezy guys. Treat the profession with some respect. This is not about guarantees. Nothing in life is guaranteed. Think about it for a minute. Find the answer yourself and...

    Personally, and it is only an opinion of one trader which is me, I think Candlesticks are useless. The only value they serve is indcating that a change in perception/value may occur. I would like to here from one trader who is profitable trading candlestick patterns. Its all just a different way...

    What is the ideal stop size for an ES contract on intraday trading

    There is absolutely no way to help you with this question unless you describe your trading methodology in more detail. If you are willing to that, then the advice you get will be meaningful (maybe). In other words, what time frame are you trading, what is your profit target in relation to your...

    Am looking for a simple strategy for trading the Dow Jones

    Which translates into...I have not lost almost everything I own trying to learn this damn profession. Let's see..I pay about 30,000 per year for my son to go to college. 4 years x $30k is 120,000. There you go, it will cost you $120k before you can get a degree that says. I have arrived, I am...

    What do you do With Someone who just Doesn't

    For what its worth....I used to have this same issue. I channeled my energy into developing code to trade automated strategies. Now the computer trades and not me. I am much more relaxed, I deal with losses much better and my confidence has soared. I make money on a regular basis and before I...

    Am looking for a simple strategy for trading the Dow Jones

    All I meant was......it would seem that the simpleness or complexity of a strategy is not what you seek. Profit is what you seek isn't it :confused: I personally think the best strategies are the one that are very simple. You will get no argument from me on that one. I trade a couple...

    Moving Average

    Yes. I would have called it this, but figured it would throw the original poster off. Same thing. Anybody who calls this stupid does not have a postive equity curve. It is trading in its purest sense.

    Understand that there is a huge difference in a simple strategy and a profitable strategy. I would suggest you re-word your question. Once you get the answer, please post it for all of us.

    Moving Average

    There is only one average that I feel has any value and it is a huge one. If you must have a line on your chart figure out how to plot a line that reflects the VOLUME WEIGHTED MOVING AVERAGE This line reflects true value and shows the relationship of current sentiment to value. SL
