  5. 3rd trade stopped out...

    Okay, this is the last chart...lol

    So far, I'm basically even for the day. This is a "day in the
    life" pretty much.

    When the trade showed 3 handles of profit, I had to lower
    and keep my stop around 6 ticks to lock in something.

    So, I was either going to make a small profit or reach my
    3-1 profit objective. In this case, I get a small profit.

    But, anyway, I think you pretty much get the idea.

    Hope this helps and good luck!

  6. Man are you still trading with IB? If so, you have more guts than me. tws keeps freezing up. The charts are invaluable. (which means valuable.)

    I'm probably not the only one who will be spending a lot of time studying them.

    Like I said, I spent a lot of time staring at those channels and tried and failed many times to trade them, but I always knew there was money in them (if you can stay out of them.)

  7. Yeah, I wasn't getting IB quotes, but orders were being
    filled. :confused:

    Glad the charts are helpful...:cool:
