Scalping_My Way with ACV

Hello VSTscalper,

Thank you for contacting me. Yes, I tried the 7 tick range bars with support and resistance lines . Yes it is simple. I tried it but the issue is the recovering from the loss after stop loss.

I am still working on drawdown recover after that loss occurs.

When you have time - if you want - I will give you some help - FREE - LOL. Even though I have the Algos - the 7 tick range bar setup - is still my favorite way to trade.

If you have time today - Skype me again. Right now - I have to take my lady shopping - be back within an hour - hopefully. She likes to have me shop with her - because she knows I will end up paying for everything. I am a sucker - LOL.
 
Pictures show Four Instruments being traded - Signals and Exits. Took the pictures in the last couple hours of trading. At 12:50 pm - Pacific Time Zone - the Market will quite often - Move quickly - Up or Down - happens just about every trading day and in this case - it shows a Profit for each Instrument.

To be Upfront - trades do NOT always make a Profit - we do have Losses. We have the Bizarro Code and Standard Code - in this case it shows the Standard Entries - like most traders might take. The Bizarro Code - may take Entries - both Directions - on the same Bar - all could be Winners or Losers - or some might Win - others Lose.

I am very curious @VCT, What is the setup ? entry, stop, target rule ? and indicator for high/low ? based on (n)? bars back i assume to avoid repainting...

Hi VCT, Any possibility for a reply, that is not just a print screen of pnl from backtest?.. I am impressed by your posted backtest result, and would like to understand if this is an actual tradeable real live algo, that you run against a broker, live, that produces similar real life pnl, or just fantasy.

Daniel.a,

First - it is "VST" - not a big deal though.

While it says "Backtest" - on the top of the performance report - it has NOT been Backtested. Personally - I think Backtesting is a lot of BS.

I have many Algos - this is what I trade. I am a Scalper mainly - with an occasional Scalp_Trend combination trade.

This thread is like my Playground - just showing my Algos - and other ways to trade. If you start at the beginning of this thread - you will see charts showing many setups.

I have many "large" clients - really don't care to do much with Retail traders and I am NOT looking for clients. If you want some help_suggestions - be glad to help - as long as it doesn't take too much time. On the previous page - just before your first post to me - there is a chart - with only Support and Resistance lines. And - I am Very Serious when I say - that is really all a trader needs - NO damn Indicators and so damn SIMPLE. You or anyone else - do NOT need to Purchase Indicators or Algos from me.

If you have Skype - send me a Private Message - I will bring you into a room - we can talk - maybe I can help you - if you need help.

Most all traders - if not all - use various Algos based on Indicators. I used to do the same thing. However - many years ago - I decided to switch to using what I call True Price Action - ONLY. Why do Traders use Signals based on One or More Indicators - it's because they were taught - that is what they had to do. You could say - Price Action is an Indicator - okay - maybe it is - however - for me - Price Action is based on True Price Movement - which is all about Price - ONLY - and what is happening with Price - at any moment in time.

This is another new Algo - developed mainly for testing. The Code is based on looking at what is happening on the Current Bar ONLY for Entry.

Instead of getting in at the Close of the Current Bar - or - the Open of the Next Bar - this Code can be set to try to get a better price on the Current Bar. So - if you want to go Long - you can set a Lower Entry Price - and if you want to go Short - you can set a Higher Entry Price.

Trading Signals can be set for Specific Times each day. If you want to trade for the First 2 hours ONLY - then set the Beginning and Ending Times. Or maybe you want to trade at some other time during the trading day - just set the Beginning and Ending Times - and the Code will only show Signals for that time period.

Maximum Drawdown on the ES - $2426.65 ---- MES - $288.75

Good Morning VSTscalper,

I have been studying your theory and True Price Movement within the granularity of 1 bar at a time.

Questions please:

1. Are you making entry decisions based on price patterns within 1 bar, or are you making entry decisions based on the past bars patterns?

2. Is your stop loss and profit target per trade entry fixed for all trades?


Thank you for your help and effort in response.

Thank you,

I will show you - it's very Simple - so it may be good for someone who has "Simple"MeLike in their name - LOL.

Just sitting here doing some Coding. I don't know what happened to you in Skype - if you want answers to your questions - send me your Skype info - I will add you again - hopefully.

MicroSUCK owns Skype - and I have problems with it quite often.

Hello VSTscalper,

Yes, my brain is logical and scientific, and only processes very simple reasoning logical explanations. I hate complexity with an unforgiveable passion.

The best manager I ever work for was an Italian Scientist, he would sit us down and say this

"Explain to me the problem in 2 sentences under 3 minutes. Then give me the solution in one complete sentence in 2 minute. "

He would get extremely anger at me if I made things complicated. From that I became a better human being in the field of 1 and 0, in complex problem solving.

While my Algos are complicated to Code - the results are presented on the Screen - to make trading decisions as Simple as possible. The Less we have to Think about - and Look at - I believe it helps make better Trading Decisions.

Here is an example - Green Arrow to Buy - and Red Arrow to Short. NO indicators to confuse a trader. Whether the trade Wins or Loses - the Decision to Enter the Trade - requires very little thinking.
