As a weekend exercise I continue to backtest/study fixed volume bars as I slowly begin a transition to them. It has been almost 5 months since I began the transition but still very much a work in progress. As they say don't fix what is not broken but if we don't experiment or take new risks we risk never improving our current methods.

Good friend of mine is always making fun of my ever evolving charts and well, that is probably the reason why, I'm always experimenting.

I made some of the same trades today. Are you setting a target for exit? I need to start using a program that automatically enters a stop. I sometimes enter a limit order by mistake which kills the trade. Keep posting, much appreciated.

B,

I use OSO in Tradestation, basically it auto places stop(s)/target(s) based on predetermined fixed values. Naturally, I do this for security reasons.

After the order has been filled I adjust them base on support/resistance and/or complacency levels.

Tomorrow I take my volume bars chart transition live. After studying them for 5 months I think I will be able to read price action better this way.

Also asked a friend savvy in EL to help me code some slope/colors into the stochs.

I've also said my official farewell to the old dog MACD, cant' say I will miss you. In fact, the screen real estate is more than welcome. Since I only used MACD as a quick trend reference I decided to add a 34 Hull Moving Average on screen instead. Why 34 ? Because it's a fib # and it makes me a "cool trader". Do I actually believe in this voodoo shit ? Only on fib 50% retracement

New chart attached.
