I chose this handle because that was how I began my trading career - trading the ETF's (QQQ, DIA and SPY).

Quote from OddTrader:

I like to learn new ideas.

Do you know of any trading system/ method that trades/suits all stocks, except ETFs/QQQ/Etc.?

Do you understand why? Are ETFs also stocks? Is that logical at all?


http://elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1978661#post1978661

Maybe the system is too based on earnings reports?
(And their overreactions and corrections following reports)?

Quote from jack hershey:

Here is a new idea for you.

F = I ( 1 + i)^n

where F = Final Capital

I = Initial Capital

i = profit per turn

n = number of turns per year.

Do not ETFs make turns?

Cannot a profit per turn occur with an ETF?

So why are ETFs unsuitable?


Full Disclosure: 'i' may at times be negative, which can lead to bankruptcy.

Probably the whole idea is to corner a few stocks by limiting the collectively available capital just to these few stocks that are called a selected universe generated by the method the individuals using.

And only a few teachers of the method would have a chance to know all the stocks of individual's selected universe.

For ETFs, not quite workable this cornering way! That's why!

 

[Trader666]

Really? Then why do you claim that the attached must be applied to a universe of screened stocks -- even though this paper is about the price, volume relationship and says nothing about PVT or a prescreened universe?

Quote from Spydertrader:

The Price Volume Relationship works in any market, on any time frame - provided sufficient liquidity exists. PVT refers to a specific methodology which uses the Price Volume Relationship to trade equities which match certain fundamental parameters.

 

[schlap]

Hmmm.. Spyder is quite specific there, and no mention of a universe :eek:
