Regarding the volume it looks really little.
It actually got every call wrong on 6 25.
The idea is to find a place where a flip of direction for 1.5 points or more is likely. That's the goal. Working on it for a while.
Why?

Realistically we're talking about one line of code here. My indicator is nothing complicated. This idea is, maybe if this might be a top, how...
I mean it's pretty close to intermediate tops and bottoms sometimes offering at least a few points in there. [ATTACH]
It blows ass when there's a bunch of long bars. [ATTACH]

Points print in real time. Here are some charts allowing you to see. I'm thinking buy 1, then buy 1 more after a 2 point travel against you....
For testing something?
Appears to me from that chart that mid day has the most volume.
It seems like everyone on this forum is like "i backtested and then it didn't work" or they're like "i don't backtest." Just postulating.
That was vague.
I realized that if I had stretched the trade to one more position in that previous chart, instead of having 8 wins and 9 losers, you would have...

I don't have an account anywhere anymore but I want to test some price action stuff with spreadsheets. I will post my results here.
I was wondering about the S&P500 and the major futures, thanks. This is figuring the data here is correct.
For the YM, buy and then buy 2 10 points away and then by 3 10 more points away and close whole position at 30 points away. Being right often...
That appears like a good way to lose extra money even faster.
