Surf's Special Situation Journal

Quote from sculptor66:

I would guess that the price driver index ist calculated by adding the directions (-x for down, +x for up, where x may vary with importance of the index component; an there can be, of course an inverse relationship) of select other markets and intermarket relationships... am I right?

some of surf's predicessors may be of interest to you

Most QA types of trend drivrers use percentile groupings. There the names are qualitative instead of quantitative.

Before that, there were "indicators" based upon each market direction. Naturally, they were NOT centered on zero since it is very important to not have a "sign" added to muddy the waters.
For smoothing these trend drivers also worked by showing interim slopes within the trend. It was also important for the designers and developers to note in advance when a switch from one of the sentiments to the other was pending. Two line theory was often used, as well.

All of the above has also been merged in modern times using a C++ type coding and then converting that to a RDBMS.

Here is a quicky in code (Arithmetic operators are used ..lol....) that is a terrific refinement:

(DMI plus (7, false) + DMI minus (7. False)) - 50

The seven data imputs smooth The DMI equations are well known and well used (WW is their creator). The 50 is the offset as mentioned above.

most platforms have this capability as part of the "highlighting" to produce trading signals. When the signal occurs it is conducted via the API to the trading account(S). I notice surfer is up to 10 contracts in two accounts.

Instead of criticizing him, without substance, which would be the easy thing to do, you could post an opposite timely call to challenge him.

That's what an honorable trader in disagreement would do, don't you guys think?

All in the know, but when the time comes, a severe lacking of "balls".

Feel free to put the technical arrangement suggested above on your plaftform. Use any reference on two line theory for monitoring and analysis.

Also you may wish to put surf's stuff on your platform it may be a little wishy washy at this pont, however.

To see my display simply use PVT Universe filter 2. One click puts the filter on the quote board and you can use the rightmost column where the data for each instrument shows the equation I posted above.

Use real time to observe or just refresh at your pleasure.

Thanks, Dan. I have Mr.Hershey on ignore but someone advised me what you are responding to. That's the funny thing about elite haters, they all rally around until they are called out to perform then they vanish for some strange reason. I am happy I am not the only one who notices this.

Surf,

i understand that your constant denigration of TA attracts haters, but one thing you do that sets an example very few follow, is that you back your talk with clear timely calls and for that you should be applauded.

Do not agree that TA is only for the past but I'm respectful of your trading and the way you conduct it in public.

Daniel, it appears you are not familiar with surf's posting history.

There are more than 2 cases I'm aware of where trade calls were deleted as soon as they went south, so read back the threads but particularly near the end of Surf's last journal definitely take with a grain of salt or teaspoon...

This is a total lie. I have always stood behind my posted trades both wins and losses. Clearly, I am not ashamed of losses as I realize its part of the game. Why are you making this stuff up---???

Surf... screenshots may not exist but the more astute who watch regularly have not played a part in accepting those shennanigans, and I do not consider that a lie witnessing the occasions through e-mail and observation.

This is false and you really shouldn't be questioning anyone's credibility.

Fully aware of Surf's history, he is unorthodox but not a cheat.

It's true, everyone shows up with illusions of grandeur, pointing fingers, calling names and what not, but no one has the balls to correspond with the same coin, posting live timely calls.

I think it was time someone came out of the shadows to finally say so.

Anyway, there's my opinion, will leave you big boys be.

Cheers.
