...counter-trend add-on trading, Saxon22's got the algo pretty much nailed)

Speaking of Saxon22, I wonder how he did last week with all that volatility and wild swings? If there was a danger to his system to blow up, last week was it...
 
Quote from dmartin:

Jimmy Jam: I have been trading for 20 years mostly in prop firms and now at my home. I'm not so much interested in integrating a new approach (though not opposed to it either) as much as looking at specific real time trades that are called out and understanding the premise of those trades. If one states the trend is down and then the trend is up in retrospect then I don't see why the specific analysis of that trade cannot be included rather than informing me to go back through 3000 post to figure out what could have taken a sentence or two.

You may have been trading for 20 years, but you're the new kid on the ES Thread. If he had to go back to basics everytime someone shows up and starts asking him ... WHY?, WHY?, WHY? he'd quickly get tired of running the thread, I know I'd get tired of reading it.

Hey, it's all there ... point-in-fact, he shouldn't have to state what the trend is for the readership, just in passing conversation, they should be able to figure-out what it is now on their on.

Quote from Spectre2007:

the price action is indicating sellers are scared.

even with a small discount buyers are stepping in. Yet buyers don't want to pay a premium.

Agree we are rangebound at the moment, flat until there is resolution, looking for a break above $1455.00 or a break below $1445.00. I agree shorts are in danger due to a possible fed cut, however I am biased to the short side. The market is jittery about any negative news.
 
Quote from elovemer:

anyone else looking for a breakout from a triangle here to the downside ?

respect... to all....

Descending triangles tend to resolve to the downside....but they can't seem to break 45-46.

Looking for an inside day with a big move one way or the other tomorrow.

Jimmy Jam: If I make a trade and communicate that to the group I can simultaneously tell you exactly why and where I made the trade. There is nothing difficult about the process. However, if I tell you the trend is down during the day and now at 3:00 EST it is obviously up what is the problem with communicating the specifics? Its not that difficult or time consuming unless of course you don't have a specific premise. I suppose if Buy1Sell2 is tired of communicating specifics or just is not interested to do so he could also communicate that.

All The Best, DMartin
