    YM trend is up, in a clear trend cannel.

    Trailing stop could be set a 13150 (trailing on grid).
    Thats a 70 point trailing stop for swing trading.
    Current high at post time is 13220.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Historical study (5 days timeframe):

    Despite the big moves it was possible to trade against 40 point YM moves with a target of 40 points (trailing) and applying stops at 100 and good money management.

    Is someone here who did exact backtesting over a longer time period?

    ER2 is looking weak.

    Trend seems to be down (not in sync. with the other top indexes).

    Big overhead resistance band 829 - 831.

    Signal is long.
    If 80 point swing stop is applied the actual stop is at 7410.

    murray

    Trends are still up.

    I dont look at volume these days, because I found no relationship between trend and volume. Do you have backtesting statistics to prove some relationship?

    Thanks!

    YM yesterday.

    I used a 5 point grid.

    I calculate a wave starting with a length of 10.
    I have added some signals (hindsight).

    ES is still up. Also the overnight level keeps high levels.

    In attached graphics I used a 0.5 point grid to check for waves.

    The waves have to be of a minimum length of 1.0 points (plus traded trough). That is that I can make sure that all ticks are traded (border ticks of a wave might not be trades ie for limit orders).
