Spydertrader's Jack Hershey Futures Trading Journal

My download hangs at ~ 30%

anybody having the same problem?

 

I do not even get that far: After clicking on the bluehost.com download link, the password window appears, I leave it blank and click on OK as indicated but it keeps popping up again....Result: I can't access the files at all...

 

I've used this link in the past:

I also want to add my thanks for these.

 

Do any of the videos pertain specifically to futures?

 

Here is my ES volume pace tool converted to Excel. Sorry for the delay I have a new job role at work and I have been swamped and also had to get my head around excel progamming.

For a previous discussion of the tool see the following post and the subsequent pages.

This should work with any data provider that supports DDE. You will need to find the DDE syntax for your provider (see instructions in Sheet1 as well)

Currently the tool is configured to work with the IB demo account.

Getting started:
- When you open the documement you are prompted to update your links. For the very First time select the "Don't Update" option
- Configure the DDE strings to get the ES volume from your data provider. Once you are done save and close the document
- Open the document again and this time select the "Update" option

It shouldn't be too hard to convert this to TS or any other platform, the code can be viewed using "view code" on Sheet1.

If you have questions, suggestions let me know.

Good luck with the tool

 

yes, the one dated 8/24/06 but do watch them all, as spyder said The FTT works in any market, on any time frame (provided sufficient liquidity exists).

 

Here is my ES chart for the morning.

 

if you focus on channel/forest you miss what a bar/tree is doing and vice versa. By focus on labeling a bar you have to be aware of how that bar is in related that channel or multiple channels for that matter. Thus there born the awareness of forest and tree (the big picture) at the same time.

 

I have been thinking along these lines and what Bear posted about geometry. Geometry is a phyiscal attribute of reality, it is not an abstraction like an equation. Furthermore, by annotating you begin to perceive that reality on much deeper levels.

I myself (and others have even posted elsewhere) had felt it was lunacy to have a chart so full of spaghetti. I had an aha type moment and realized that either the spaghetti could be on the chart (as in our annotations) or the spahetti could be in our heads. Many of us who used to espouse using "clean" charts didn't realize our brains were at least as dirty as our charts were clean.
