(In a high pitched tone) Thank you! Good post, Tommy. The more experience one gets, the more entertaining ET is. I enjoy this website!
For what it's worth... I dumped candlesticks a long time ago and actually saw a slight improvement in my bottom line. I stopped looking for crap that really wasn't there... I use a tick chart with H/L bars and price action to simplify things and my performance has improved.
Please just post the calls in your journal, like I do in the "surf report". I try to get my entries and exits in as real time as possible. I am not interested in magic shows or personal attacks, I have respect for all traders--- just not for claims or methods that are not shown before the fact, in a public forum. best wishes, surf
Okay, I will track the SNP 500 Index using my methods. It would be the easiest way to show intelligent trend following.
No apologies for the research done on this end, who I have been exposed to for the last 15 years, or providing research and education to clients - a range of clients from very large funds to new traders starting out. If any of the cycle/prediction folks were serious (or credible) we would all sit down and tape a debate. Real people, real names and in a real room (not the digital fake land) with a real audience and the focus would be on content -- not just personal attacks. None of the cycle/prediction characters will dare take me up on that.
Great, please use an actual tradable instrument that follows the index-- since the index itself cant' be traded. SPY, ES, or whatever. Remember to post the entries as you make them or before and the exits. Looking forward to your journal!!
