I downloaded the videos from procrasts site but am having some trouble playing them. On two of them I have no video and the audio is so low I cannot hear it even with volume turned up all the way. On the third one the audio is ok but no video. Media player cannot recognize the codecs and cannot locate it anywhere. Do we need a special codec from somewhere?
STR/SQU... In general, when monitoring STR/SQU, does the magnitude of the STR or SQU have any meaning? In other words, is a spike that is much larger than the +/- 2 Neutral range more interesting than a spike that barely breaks Neutral? I'm curious if others see a lot of "flashing". By flashing, I mean lots of signals in both directions in a single bar. Anyone have any ideas on the meaning here? For example, STR followed by SQU. Lastly, does anyone question the +/-2 Neutral region? In other words, what if the region was larger? Using replay, I'm going to post a few snippets from Friday morning. Using hindsight, I picked 2 Action Points to check for STR/SQU signals. Note that my STR/SQU uses 2 min bars and I paint the background GREEN for STR and RED for SQU. The blue horizontal line show the NOW value. The first snippet is a "new candidate point 3". Of course, it is a new point 3 in hindsight. I beleive this snippet shows SQU. Am I interpreting this stuff correctly? I dunno. It would be useful for people to post snippets for discussion. Maybe take a screen in RT, edit and post later. spooz
Snippet 2, candidate FTT... This is one of several STR's that signalled in my app on this bar. Note that the NOW value (blue line) is basically at the +2 region. The LTL of the "wide" ES channel expanded on this bar. I fanned a steeper channel to show the potential FTT candidate. After this signal, I saw several more STR. Again, my STR/SQU uses 2 min bars...
Snippet 3, same ES bar... Note that this STR signal is a much larger spike than shown in the previous snippet. Any meaning here? Any feedback/discussion would be appreciated... spooz
I notice after the fed mins the S/S went from -1 to -8 and the mkt tanked. Yes, I see a lot of "flashing". But we are suppose to focus on S/S on "action points" i.e. FTT's, pt. 3's, etc... I'm still learning S/S like everyone else. Will still have the below tools coming. But 1 step at a time.
In order to review the day I have at times been recording the S/S. Below is a screen capture of the chart on 4-5. Each time the YM or INDU changes it records the S/S on top and the current ES price. Time stamps are placed every 5 minutes in PST according to my computer (so data might be off a bit). If this data would be useful for discussion I could save it as CSV and post it.
