I looked at it but it did not meet the setup requirements fully so I did nothing. Gabe
I go by setups that show up on the 5min. The charts are 1min charts because Ninja puts the trade lines only in that time frame. Actually my...
Between 10AM-1PM EST I I got only 1 valid setup (~80% valid). There was nothing for me to go by. I will continue with what I have until the end...
No secret. From my back-testing I found that a stop of 11 ticks on a 5min chart,works for me. I don't look at volume. Today, I was taken out of...
I got the message but saying "You Know" every few sentences drives me nuts. Gabe
So I did the following (suffering through countless "You Know"s. And this Still boring but I promised to do it so I did it. I get the idea....
I noticed that big losing days are preceded by some disturbing event in my personal life. It does not have to be a big event but it seems...

The choice is clear and I am working on it. Gabe
Yes Dr. :) I promise I will. Good night. Gabe
The idea behind doing back-testing using a computer is to remove the subjectivity of us humans. I am willing to bet that a trader who is doing...
I noticed that on days that I have large losses it starts with me moving a stop slightly because I see a BETTER defendable price level. When that...
What is the difference between a TRADING PLAN and a Method? I was always under the impression that a trading plan describes the method. That is...
