. can you see the market at play here... Mandelbrot: Fractals and the art of roughness At TED2010, mathematics legend Benoit Mandelbrot develops a theme he first discussed at TED in 1984 -- the extreme complexity of roughness, and the way that fractal math can find order within patterns that seem unknowably complicated. About Benoit Mandelbrot Benoit Mandelbrot is the pioneer of fractals, a broad and powerful tool in the study of many forms of roughness, in nature and in humanity's works -- including even art. .

note to moderator: there is a one report per minute limit on reporting spams. it make reporting multiple spams very difficult.

it's the July 4th long weekend in USA... probably they are away. I would worry if things do not get back to normal by Tuesday morning.

LOL... TOS is primarily an options broker. A few years back they added futures to their offering because many clients need to use futures contract to hedge their positions. It was never intended as a futures daytrading broker. You don't use a Forex broker for stocks the same way you don't use an options broker for ES scalping... but I won't call it a black list.

I can do it for you for $1 each. ;-)>

.......... have you tried?

try MSN Money... it is free you will need to use Microsoft's Internet Explorer to get the full features. http://moneycentral.msn.com/investor/research/wizards/SRW.asp

ROTFLMAO... I have met my share of successful traders who are also loners, and/or... divorced, overweight, uncontrollable compulsive smoker/drinker, ostracized social misfits... I have also met a little old lady who trades nothing but Q options. Her appearance is so unassuming, if you run into her in a supermarket, you would not imagine she swings a 7 digit account everyday. What I am trying to say it.... it takes all kind to make this world, and we are nothing more than a statistic in a normalized demographic study.

young???? you mean naive ? no, no, no.... I mean you ! LOL

I am not sure if I understand what you are talking about...

what is your "no" referring to?

there are very little privacy on the internet. you might be surprised, but your charting software vendor knows more about your account than you realized. Ninja was caught red handed a few years ago when their software was sending private information back to their server. One of MultiCharts' users found his eSignal password in MC's log. Of course MC quickly promised not to do it again in the future. You go figure what software can extract from your computer...

good one. I may add: Improper application of any technical indicator can be just as disastrous as not using an indicator at all. or, Not using an indicator is better than an improper application of a technical indicator.

Neoticker was written in Borland's app engine, probably as far opposite of Visual Basic as you can get on the application development spectrum.

look who's talking !!! ...someone who pretends to be a holy-than-thou "price action" trader in the front, but secretly tries to buy an indicator behind the scene... LOL and you had the gall to bad mouth the guy when he won't sell you his indicator... !?!?! ROTFLMAO

give this a read in your spare time, you might learn something different. ps. this is not a fast acting aspirin, the pain won't go away overnight; this knowledge will take at least 24 months+ to learn. http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/f34/price-volume-relationship-6320.html

don't jump ahead, don't think of the cross over yet, it might not be the tool you need. but instead, start from the very beginning, write out your logic step-by-step... as if the computer is reading your mind... what is the critical point? what drives the critical point? what are the components of this critical point? what are the attributes of this critical point? you have already mentioned the components that are NOT in this critical point... >no zero line or crossover like macd or stochastic if you can identify what's not there, surely you can identify what's there. use a magnifying glass, enlarge the chart, zero in on the few bars that triggered this critical event... the information's got to be there, under your nose somewhere.

write out your thoughts... step-by-step, line-by-line, logic-by-logic, you will see yourself clearly if you do.

try: cross above cross below

restricting to a single core is not enough, you have to disable multi-threading. Intel website has instruction on how to do that.

can you post the link to the reference on TOS? I would like to read up on it.

your prev post allude to probabilities, then there is room for additional experiment to find out if... 1) if a half gap (of a percentage of gap) would produce a higher probability of profit? albeit a smaller profit amount at each instance? 2) if it is possible to combine a higher frequency strategy with MM to produce a run when the market prevails?

you are only describing some of the contexts which might create a gap...

MultiCharts uses an extended version of EasyLanguage. most of MultiCharts' codes would work in TradeStation. Give it a try... and let us know how it works out.
