When When dealing with the actions of Intelligence organizations, there is never going to be rock solid proof, and always a shield of plausible deniability. But you knew that. It's just more a matter of deciding which side you are on. We know you aren't on America's.

Oanda dealing major CHF pairs with a 40 to 60 tick spread. Doens't there just have to be some kind of opportunity there?;) Just because I am new to this stuff, and a lot of you guys are seasoned vets, has anyone ever seen a 20 big figure move take place in under five minutes, in a market made...

As an add on to the above post: Maverick used to talk about wide ORs being great setups for fades. if you used that strategy today, while waiting for countertrend action, you would have made a friggin boat load of money.

I don't trade the e-mini, but of course I had to pull up a chart and slap some make shift ACD levels on it, what with everything that was happening today. How would the ACD experts read today's action? Using a 30 minute OR and 5 handle A levels, it looks like we had a 25 handle opening range...

Yeah, this is what happens when inept casino management collides with an incredibly well bankrolled hustler. Fear and Greed don't only apply to trading.;)

This issue is being actively discusses in the 2+2 poker forums, NVG sub forum. Very interesting, and a lot of us serious gamblers are going back and forth with different views. This case hinges on the premise that Ivey asked for certain concessions that were granted by management. He also was...

Another nice Failed A up in the Yen futures today. If you had the conviction to stay with the trade it comfortably hit the ATR target with zero real heat.

Logical, how does your average daily/session range compare/contrast to ATR?

I am looking at this kind of thing as well. The weeklies look really good. Failed A's around the weekly Pivot set up really nice fades with good Risk Reward profiles. I am only looking at three currency futures, but so many of these trades validate my analysis. Price will make a high at the...

Another balls out perfect ACD play in the Euro this week. Failed Aup (Weekly) right around the weekly pivot, trended straight down to a perfectly reasonable ATR based target with, get this, zero heat. This trade was never in the red once the low of the bar that temporarily broke the A level...

Mark made such a big deal about the significance of the OR as a possible High/Low area of the day. I think the more important issue is the frequency that a market makes its H/L within x% of a certain volatility threshold of the OR. In currencies and index futures I am "seeing" that my A levels...

by my chart there were several tradeable failures in the yen futures today. two a downs and two c downs. 3 of the four made good money with reasonable risk. I took the first two A failures, lost 9, and made 38. Was too gun shy to take the two Failed C's after the news, and figured plus 29 when...

not to rub it in the faces of the guys who don't use ACD...............But is there anything prettier and more satisfying than catching a real nice Failed A? Price moves quickly to the level, snaps back quickly, and proceeds to move smoothly to the ATR target on the other side. Usually at...

Few number line basic questions. Is there any online reliable resource that gives the scoring rules in an easy to understand manner? Every post I find seems to be a jumble. For someone just starting his own set of lines, how far back should I start. Is thirty enough? Can the lines be used...

thanks mav. All and all i think they are fair, they need to eat too. They seem to get protective at times, but not overly so in my limited experience with them. I clerked for one o the biggest local dual broker/traders back in the 90's. He handled at least 80% of Solomon and Citi's bond future...

Maverick, opened a small Oanda accont after you talked them up a bit last month. Small trades, just messing around, 300k several times in the EUR/USD. Every order was filled instantly, on the nose. Almost like paradise. I was caught the wrong way trying to play an A Down right before the...

I know that a lot of fundamentalist chrtistians aren't that smart........ But you do know that in Islam Jesus is considered the most respected prophet of of the one true God, don't you? According to Mohammed, Jesus is the result of a Virgin birth to Mary and was assumpted into Heaven...

Simple question. When playing a bounce of an A level maverick, you seem to mention the target being the opposite A level. Is that your default profit area, or do sometimes use the remainder of the Average Daily ( Weekly/Monthly/Quarterly) Range based on the low of the initial failure. I...

Just in case you really want to learn............... 1. daytrading is very difficult. Accept that, embrace the failure rate, and try anyway. 2. Buy The Logical Trader by Mark Fisher and Trading in the Zone by Mark Douglas. 3. Read The ACD thread on here from start to finish. Do...
