To m4a1:

Short grails on hourly and a 3 BRD have not been too fruitful, conclusion is that the market is still bullish and short grails on shorter TFs are more risky than the long ones. It's not just a pattern, but a analytical process.

BTW your results are odd because you seem to pick and choose your grails. That's not how it's done, if you do choose some, then there must be a reason for that which you do not disclose, leading us to believe in its absence. As I said earlier that way of compiling stats has no real purpose. You are bound to be either finishing at break-even or a failure. All the best.

it was different that time...it's different this time...it's different next time...okiedokie

romik you really need to subscribe to real time data.

Quote from romik:

that's a different scenario, where a strength of a grail on a shorter time frame benefits from a longer one. A different matter altogether. Yesterday was a typical example of my question, where there was a long grail on 3,5,15 and when hourly confirmed there was tremendous upside. Fierstein?

hey romik are there people who know you in real life that you need to impress who also know that you are posting as romik here?

 

[brightstone]

come on...
let's keep course with civil discourse
not personal attacks
this is theory in action
with a desire to learn from interacting with others
not psychological profiling

Unlike you Sir/Madam, I try to involve myself in quality info exchange plain and simple, you on the other.........hand........are........strange...... Cover blown yet again, thank you (not mentioning who) for pointing out yet another alias for Porgie, makes sense now with a purposeful inconsistency in stats.

johnbob i understand what you're saying but do you think that waiting for the bar to close will lead to many poor entries? i cannot find a good example right now but lets just use yesterday's 2:45 bar as an example. look at how much of a move you would have missed if you waited for that bar to close.

Quote from JohnBob:

To say it another way, until 1145 you do not have a collection of 15min bars. You have a series of 15min bars with a 3min bar or a 7min bar or a 11min bar or a ... attached at the end.

If your signals are based on 15min bars, you cannot use some other "loose" bar at the end of the collection to determine your signal.

Apologies if I have added to the confusion.

I got it John, there was a long grail long before 14.15

lol romik how do you think i knew that you don't even subscribe to real time data?

i'm going to leave you alone now.

Quote from m4a1:

romik my friend you do you subscribe to real time data?

Quote from romik:

No, I trade using delayed data
