    There's always a trend on some timeframe. There were a number of trades today that were good for 5-10 ES points. Lately you don't get these situations where ES runs straight up for the whole day for a 100-point range, but those are rare in the grand scheme of things. Personally I'm increasingly trading on multiple timeframes to catch those bigger swings, which nowadays are taking longer to evolve, while for the most part my intraday trades are coming to resemble scalps more than the grand slams one might've gone for in the past.

  2. Does anyone know where can I find Stealth Trader's document that explains his method of trading price action? Thanks.

    Floyd,

    You can find it in the original PA journal thread.

    I also included the attachment below.

    All I got is this picture explaining the 3BR according to Stealth. I hope it helps.

    Anyone got the ninjascript EXACT code that Anek used in his last chart at Elitetrader?. I'm still looking for it.

    shakira.

  6. I find also Ninja charts difficult to read when it comes to entry and exits. Not as clear as with TS.

    I draw a vertical line for the entries, a green for long, and a red for short.
    The exact entry/exit point is indicated by the little blue arrows.

    The day was a small loss.

  7. This is my yesterday's chart.
    Small gain.

    I found it difficult to get filled in the down trend. I waited for a retracement but there was none.
    The funny thing is that before the trading session, I did some sim trading on a similar type of day (Nov 2) and came to the conclusion that it is better to wait for a retracement to previous suport.
    In any case I find it difficult to sell on a break out at LOD. For me its like jumping into dark water.

    The short trade was not easy to take. I had to think.
    It was a DB against the trend, and then a DT with the trend. I chose the strongest side using anchor. Had it failed I would have reversed, the DB becoming valid.

    I did not trade live yesterday due to the election.

    Now, lets have a good trading day.

    On Anek's latest chart, what does DP and POC stand for?

    Thanks,
