    Yes i have read the whole thread and it looks like ego is more important than making money. The only thing that I questioned was the 90% win rate this "no risk" strategy is supposed to have. BTW, if he did his research he would know that since the beginning of 2003 it gapped up 56% of the time. Which is interesting but not quite the 90% this "no risk" strategy has. I guess I just don't know how to use a spreadsheet.

    I did close out a NQ long I had but I am not a daytrader so I don't make trades daily.

    You haven't answered my original question about talking about a strategy in public and it disappearing.

  2. I am not concerned about it disappearing, I try not to concern myself with something I have no control over. What I do know is if the Dow has been down for two days in a row the probility of it being up in the overnight session is 90%. This has been the case for the past 5 months.

  3. Another high probility trade is if the Dow has been down for most of the day their is a very high probility in the last 20 minutes it will lift off its lows.

    Buyers have been showing up to support the market lately during the last hour.

    So you are living in the present as long as it is working NOW that is all that matters? You do realize that there are several hedge fund managers and well known authors on the site that could take this idea and find something really concrete in it and start trading size to make it as obvious as a CANSLIM cup and handle pattern?
