I'm always flat at close and found it works quite well to just take the opening print at 8:30 CST based on what side your system says you should...
Curious if you use a hard stop or set stop at the volatility flip line? I know it's tough to take the heat sometimes but I have found you got to...
Nicely done. Of course it might go down more but you can't argue with profits!
We all suffer the same problem. I didn't get a close below my 793.20 stop so should have stayed long and did until 12:03pm CST when the YM, NQ,...
You just have to set your mind to it I think. That's why I like to scalp part of my position for "x" ticks profit and ride the remainder until I...
I hope it works out 'cause I'm right there with ya, entering at 793. Stop at 791.6 My target for 1 contract is 794.6 I was up $600 after...
I have the same problem you do. I took mine off at 788.5 and I'm lightly kicking myself since it went to 791 (so far). Of course if we reverse,...
Interesting - I've never seen that before. Only the last bar of the day is not the proper volume size which I attibute to the fact that they seem...
No idea - I'm just an eSignal user and was glad to hear the news so I passed it along. I haven't had many problems at all with volume bars...
Good news - eSignal will soon offer constant range (or tick) charts: Sent: Monday, January 22, 2007 10:41 AM Subject: RE: Constant Range bars...
They will be soon - just heard this: Sent: Monday, January 22, 2007 10:41 AM Subject: RE: Constant Range bars Thank you for the interest....
I did not drill any holes in my monitors. Every monitor is different but for my NEC monitors I was able to disassemble the plastic base it come...
Build your own custom stand GammaTheta. I used 2x4s, plywood, some stain and varnish. Works great, looks great, and won't reduce your trading...
Thanks for the chart Jasper. You're right - it's not nearly as smooth using 3-min. charts as your constant range charts.
Jasper, I'm close to getting my eSignal scripting language to produce a volatility stop. Not nearly as clean as yours but it's a start. Since I...
Call your broker and ask them. Normally you have to specify which YM contract to trade. YM H7 is March 2007 contract but exact format varies for...
Current initial margin required to trade YM and hold overnight is $2437 per contract. Most day trading brokers only require $500 (or less)...
Jasper, I like your very simple system. I have a similar one I've been trading off/on using Point Break (or Line Break) Charts. I have...
we'll move one way or the other in 15 mins. with FOMC minutes
