In the spirit of Larry Williams, I am releasing an indicator I just made to show if a particular day has a bias towards being bullish/bearish. The more negative the number, the more bearish bias there is and vice versa. EL obv....

Choose the day to study, 1 = mon, 2 = tue, etc.

Inputs: DayOneIsMonday(1);
Vars: TotalDays (0), UpOrDownDay (0);

if dayofweek(d) = DayOneIsMonday then begin
TotalDays = TotalDays + 1;
if c > o then UpOrDownDay = UpOrDownDay + 1;
if c < o then UpOrDownDay = UpOrDownDay - 1;
end;

plot1( UpOrDownDay , "Up or Down Bias?");

@ 8.2k with account, got out of corn trade for -200.

+100 on FX trades on a separate account starting with 3k.

I have set index trading aside for the moment. Seems there is a better edge in other commodities...
