Hi,

Afternoon was not so good

Net Gain on day +$18, two long losers. Oh well, tomorrow is another day

No equity trades today.

Cheers

Quote from Razor:

Hi,

Currently up $107 net. Was up an unrealized $200 at one point (had 2 cars as I added to a short during the morning session)...trade came back to give me +4 on the first entry and -1.50 on the second, if that sucker would have had one more downdraft after my add would have posted a +$300 day....no worries.

Will see what the afternoon has to offer

Cheers

I can unzip the file, but when I try to open the ELD file I get no Analysis Types and I can't proceed with the Tradestation import wizard. Any idea what is wrong?

Looks like the trade / long from broken resistance / worked out.. so where would be an exit ? Here is one idea

Jaxon,

Could be the TS version #....

Try the code.

input: AlertTicks(0), HOffset(3),
AlertText("Vol"),AlertColor(magenta),
NonAlertColor(White);

vars: txt(-1),TicksLeft(0),color(0);

if BarType = 0 then
begin
//initiate the text variable
if BarNumber = 1 then
txt = text_new(date,time,close," ");

TicksLeft = BarInterval - ticks;

if OneAlert(TicksLeft <= AlertTicks) then
alert(NumToStr(TicksLeft,0)+"-"+AlertText+" alert");

//text color changes with alert
if TicksLeft > AlertTicks then
color = NonAlertColor
else
color = AlertColor;

//reset at each tick
text_SetLocation(txt,date,CalcTime(time,HOffset),close);
text_SetString(txt,NumToStr(TicksLeft,0)+" " + AlertText);
text_SetColor(txt,color);
end;

Do you mean a relatively long bar? I have been making mistakes with these and then finding out that sometimes they retrace pretty well.

Exhaustive move, overdone.

Ok,
This is my first day exercising the AHG method. Time to put it into action.

11 trades
1 contract net / -$47.8

btw- since the past 2-3 years of intermittent charting, I have yet to spend a dime. It's on paper thru IB's sim account.... thank god!

Attached, is today's chart with some comments on it.

If you allow me to comment
- I love your short trades under red circle #3, #5 and long around 15:11 have excellent RRR.

Trade #2 probably a good one, but you exited too early, I would have placed a stop above most recent resistance.

#3 short - no signs to exit, coming from DT in downtrend.

#4 probably too close to a possible DB formation, glad it worked out

Tech,

Does not look bad.

Little overtrading and in some instances you were trading on pure chop which ultimately led to your small loss, read afternoon.

Also remember what's annotated on my very first post.

Short the pop ups on a downtrend.

Long the retracements on an uptrend.

Sometimes I forget about the above two lines.

This will increase accuracy and reduce stops.

Also spend considerable amount of time spotting congestion, I barely traded the afternoon.

PS: You respond to your very own questions in a logical way, which will ultimately lead to trading wisdom.
