YM in a Can

I am truly honored so far as to the visits. It is apparent that ET is highly populated with futures traders. If were lucky Quah and the others who do not post frequently because they are trading will comment here.

P.S. I will mention your suggestion to the wife. (that bump on my head was not a birth defect)
 
Quote from ElectricSavant:

I hope this journal will give the new traders(or old idiots like me) in this forum ideas on how to trade. I do not know how long I will post to it, we shall see.

I am testing an equation someone posted in another thread. I just tested level to level without indicators(one poster recommends the use of confirming volume and momentum in another thread).

This is 24 hr trading and to start the first trade,(the wife will kill me when I put speakers in the bedroom to hear the platform dings) I simply entered the first level realized (h3,h4,l3,l4) then I entered in a bracket around the entry with a stop and reverse (double contract) with whatever the next levels were. If it was a breakout trade (h4,l4) then only one side of the bracket is entered. If I go into a new session then the equation is re-calculated and the new levels entered in the trading platform as limit orders. To simplify this I simply print out the spreadsheet and write in my trades on the spreadsheet and put it in my 3-ring binder with my trade journal pages.

Here is a list of the trades so far: (the reason for this journal is to see if this will be profitable in the YM)

04/27/04 short 10485
04/27/04 reverse long 10512 (-$135.00)

Yep, me too. Keep them coming. I just don't know if you are aware that there are several versions of the Camarilla equation. I have a few of them in my bookmarks somewhere. Anyway, have fun.
 
Thanks electron. I am trying to keep the trademark name out of the cracked version. I do not understand what the law is. I am just trading pivots in my opinion.
