That is extremely interesting I check what the stats say about time pivot. It is true that I intuitively find that the best pivot signals are the first ones
Getting long in the morning and selling at today's PIVOT made you roughly 10 points. Reversing at the PIVOT and going short just made you another 8 points. Total: 18 points
I think my software may be plotting the numbers wrong or we are looking at different things. Are you talking about the ES today, Thursday? Could you and Funky look at your numbers and see if these are the same: s2 1021.38 s1 1026.50 p 1031.62 r1 1036.75 r2 1041.88 thanks, jd
Funky, you seem to have a solid handle on trading the pivots. Do you have any charts of your trades you can post? I saw this question on an earlier thread, so if you posted elsewhere just point me in the right direction. Thanks!
You may want to try this calculator to compare vs. your software http://www.r7.com/pivotcalc.htm You can use the settlement numbers from here- http://www.cme.com/dta/hist/daily_settlement_prices.html?type=idx
kgharris....thanks, i was asked this a bunch of times and unfortunately when i started annotating the charts it became very clear what my strategy is.....so its a no go on the charts, sorry!
I don't understand? You have some proprietary strategy so as you cannot share charts? Seems odd - do you really think that showing charts would have an impact on your trading?
