Trading times for Wednesday

Quote from Walther:

Send me what you will make from next trading time , 14:20 est. and I will think about it .
No cheating !
Walter

Funky,
How much are you sending ? lol

Today we got 3 correct calls plus one extra for Funky.
Two of the calls were definitely tradable, some of the experienced traders mailed me that they got all 3 of them . I will count only 2 profitable trades because majority of traders would get 2 trades at most.
It is very important to me that I receive feedback from experienced traders and I am very thankful to them .
Thanks,
Walter

I said that because I use rather trendlines than indicators for confirmation

.

I did follow only the last days of your post. The first day I saw your call it was around 10 I think I said myself this guy is funny because many things happen around 10

. So I waited for other calls, yesterday was good although not perfect, today was perfect ... compared to my model because I know myself that market only takes off at nearly perfect price I calculate (today it was 8627 and 8634 see picture below) and the call you give at 11:55 exactly happened when the market took off from my 8634 level

.
I can't conclude statistically with so few posts from yours but at least if it was by chance you must be rather lucky

.

My model has time unit but it is an artefact a pure abstraction for it is not rational to model time economically because that would imply very strong causality. Now because my price exhibits geometry it must put some constraint on time dimension but I never really check and have only at the moment lose correlation between my theorical time and the true physical time. For example below my model give a low between 2 and 3 time units so 11H30 and 12H30 so it is not as precise as your call for sure

Quote from Walther:

Could have been, but you can use just two chosen indicators to determine or confirm trading time . I picked MACD divergence for reversal trades and 21 MA for BO trades . I purposely use these two simplest indicators , familiar to everyone. I have and most of others here on ET have also more sophisticated methods available to determine what trade to take in conjunction with "trading times " .
Point is that as long as you have "trading times " all you need is two simplest indicators to make trades .

Harry,
Thanks for looking at trading times , It would be interesting if you can post if some future correlations might happen like today as described in your post.

9:40 est was a good call, but I doubt that anybody could have trade it except RBO traders strangling previous day high. Good call but no trade.
Walter

Good call, Walther. I got in too, but only because my method suggested so. Not that I knew that ahead of time. I use what I call the convergence of timeframes to get bigger very often 6-10 ES pt moves like the one this morning.

Oh I only do it from time to time to make fun because it is not very useful since people do not understand me : they say I speak Allien-like language and that they need a Universal Translator to decrypt me

Funny thing Walter's predictions are meaningless - many of them are wrong,

None of the "trading times" resulted in trading loss , ALL which passed indicator s filter were profitable and you know it. Reason why do you lying about it is because you are just pathetic .....rd

some of them are not precise enough to be credible, and others are just pure guesses and concindences open to interpretation. I mean nothing happened today at 9:40 that I would call a trading time

What were you watching, cartoons ? I hope that you are aware of the fact that " trading times" for Wednesday were posted on TUESDAY .

. At 11:55 they say the market took off. Gee, 20 points for Dow is not exactly taking off.

If one can do 20 points a week per contract he would be superstar trader.
I am glad that you got your frustration of your chest and hopefully able to think straight again but I honestly doubt it , You have some agenda... Maybe you can post some of your trades ahead of time . Oh wait.. I challenged you last Friday and you didnot show up on Monday.
Where are your trades , chicken?

If I could predict my trades ahead of time I would be super rich and retired. I dont understand why you are not yet.

First time I've heard of a slow 1.75pt ES move being described as 'Taking Off'.

oh, i trade the naz, sorry, didn't know it was for the ES.....

For the targets I use a concept called duality (which is used classically in Modern Physics see for example how duality revolutionize mathematics for physicians http://www.superstringtheory.com/people/atiyah.html ) and I define duals on my charts like this : "Each point on a line has a counterpart on the other line we called a dual. The dual of a projection point is a base point and vice versa."
