    Jay, what did you use as a stop in the second trade here? It's similar to some of the trades I do - waiting for extra confirmation.. When I do this though, I find I need a bigger stop if it's going to be at the bottom of the swing. Do you remember where your stop was placed? Note -...

    Daytrading- Big Picture and Volume Analysis

    This post here is talking about consolidation area, a 10 point range, etc. I felt like most of today was in a range (I trade NQ though). So I thought that your observation above was pretty good. At least, until 11:40 which is still most of the day.

    You also said we'd be in a range all day which is a more interesting observation imo. Can you break down that call?

    Daytrading- Big Picture and Volume Analysis

    Ah, I posted the question to the NT guys and got a response (great service always over there). orders that occur between the bid + ask do not get plotted on the buysellvolume histogram. That is what is happening there.

    Actually, VOL is okay, but BuySellVolume (real time) is not okay. I guess it depends on which you are using.

    Daytrading- Big Picture and Volume Analysis

    Are you 100% sure about NT being okay? Put a volume histogram at the bottom of a constant volume chart. You dont see any small peaks? I do.

    Susana, have you looked at the ross hook? How do you find it compares to 3br? To me, they seem almost to be talking about the same thing. Have you distinguished between them?

    The Price Action Journal

    Here's an issue i'm running into this afternoon as I do a bunch of replays: My trading plan (as close to ahg1 as i can get it) is to follow the trend on the anchor (10kv for NQ). On two days that I've replayed today, the anchor is in a super strong uptrend - with no pullbacks. My...

    Daytrading- Big Picture and Volume Analysis

    Can you explain this a bit more? I would think that if patient sellers dry up, there are fewer sellers, so price should go higher. How is it that fewer sellers (patient sellers dry up) brings price down?

    Daytrading- Big Picture and Volume Analysis

    EMC, I don't quite follow some of the basics of your first few posts. I don't follow the identification of patient participants vs anxious participants. I'm also confused by your image with a caption in the volume pane that reads: "Patient buyers halt the upmove to big picture swing point"...

    Trading on the Beach

    Anyone trading on the beach? In the park? At starbucks? I'm less interested in coffee-shop trading but curious about what tech / hardware / comm setups you guys have for mobile trading. I took my laptop to the park this pm to do some replays and let me tell you, I could get used to...

    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    A few people have indicated interest in an irc channel to discuss AHG 1, and the introductory / fundamental aspects of AHG. I quickly asked Anek if he would be okay with us starting an 'ahg1' channel to discuss the model that this thread has set up, and he said that it would be okay...

    Let me tell you about what I've learned at puretick and why it has not been a waste of my money. Depending on your own level of progression with trading, and on your own bankroll, etc, the value I get will not necessarily make it a value for you. I've only been interested in active trading...

    MBIA loses AAA credit rating

    I haven't seen a thread on this yet - not a big deal? No thoughts on if this will bring some downside next week? http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=aUKrtfm0u4yI&refer=home

    Stochastics

    Thanks Stealth. Waiting to catch a smaller piece of a move after the direction has been confirmed is something that I need to get better at. Instead, I am always perched at the edge of my seat waiting to catch the beginning of the reveral - but why bother? 2 points at 90% consistency is worth a...
