This is my problem with this thread. I've given good effort just understand entry, target, stop, and I still don't know. I would love 2 sentences, that clearly explain, entry, target, and stop. Just the mechanics.
Couldn't do it in two lines. Still might be of value.
When two cars give it the gas and one takes off and the other explodes forward. Why?
1. No offense, am I considerably smarter than you with regards to the topic. The NINJA must be a very intelligent man as his product stands up to the test of time. I was personally confused but did not really give it it's due.
2. All bars, say moving with trend, have different sized bodies in the Japanese candle. Need to participate in the large ones and stay from the small one. I know my candles, I made a slide show and went over and over the translations. Working with a long wick currently.
3. Based on my personal trading, one tic is my target. Need to make one before 2.
My stop, again based on my trading results, is a bracket, 2 profit and 4 trailing top loss. Will not explain how this really 1-5 when you hit the market button.
4. I generate signals through a series of filters, decision tree. I have told Savant what to look for as I have you guys. He has attempted and finds great days followed by disaster days. I told him to now find the filters that suit him. I did not give him mine as this is competitive. Find what wins and wait for it defensively. I actively looked for more trades and just got all messed up. My best day is very boring so many short breaks, after each trade.
I have laid out my overall strategy and as Handle123 has stated, nobody gets my filters, they are proprietary. If more than 1000 people traded my algorithm it might collapse. I'm confident a new edge would be created and I could find it but why would I want to.
Real world slogan, do anything for 10,000 hours and become an expert. The saying is derived from time it takes to l
earn a PHD. Pick a financial product. I picked ES and only ES. I would say you are less than 10,000 away. Demo trading, must be the same as reality. I demo'd with 3 contract, every trade, with a market order., 1030 TO 330 est, for almost 2 years. My demo results became my results live. Tradovate's demo is very accurate on how you get filled in demo. Sign up for their free demo and see for yourself..
I used Go Futures for 2 months and their demo filled you immediately upon touching your target. Not realistic means not realistic results. They make you believe to are a NATURAL.
