If you entered this trade where the circle appears with just 1 contract how would you manage the trade once you're in it. Where would you put a...
Question on trigger bars for entry: I'll use a trendline trade as an example. Let's say a bar closes above a trendline for a long entry....
Here's what I think is a dumb question. I was just reviewing today's chart click by click, and I did not even notice the very obvious dragon...
Wow ! 140 contracts just traded on a 1 minute bar after hours. Is that normal? I don't watch after hours much. Who trades like that in the...
On this chart I attached where would you enter a short? If I was watching in real time I would probably have shorted where the middle of the W is...
That looks easy. Nice. You should sit with me and watch some of my trades throughout the day, then you can learn how hard it should be.
Yeah, maybe that is the trick. Either concentrate on holding trades for large gains or concentrate on taking pieces out of a trend. Right now I...

Anek, Question on TRENDLINE BREAKS. If you are using a trendline break as a reason to exit a long trade, would you recommend exiting as...
I don't use any broker right now. Will probably go with ThinkorSwim because they have futures in addition to stocks. They also have a pretty...
I hate to crash on your conspiracy party, but I used to work at Ameritrade and there is no house full of wolves. You open an account, stick your...
I do not recommend Scottrade. I think Ameritrade blows them out of the water if you are looking into these types of brokers. I got worse fills...
ThinkorSwim has extremely high margin requirements compared to others I have seen, but I'm no expert: S&P(ES): $3,938 Nasdaq100(NQ): $3,250...
From what I've read here I would have shorted that on that first red engulfing bar just outside the blue box you drew. The failure of such a...
Anek, Have you applied your method to daily stock charts? I was looking at a few and they really don't seem to move like an intraday...
