Patuca, It is true that the market does not heed to our rules. But I do believe that we need to heed to our rules. And if our rules are not working, then we should change them in a non-emotional state to better reflect the realities of the market. I believe that trading without a plan, that has a set of written rules, made outside the trading emotion is critical to success. Thank you. Tony

zdo, I am using the methods taught to me and use the Trader's Trick Entry (TTE) for Rh's. I have them set as strict as possible so I am taking the setups with the highest probability of winning. That also means that I miss some winners. But I also avoid more losers. If there are any setups that you think I am missing, please post them and I will explain why I did not take them. Could be that I filtered out a good setup and didn't realize it. Thank you. Tony

zdo, I take rh's but with very strict parameters. The timeframe I am looking at may not have any setups which is why I will post a no trade day. Thank you. Tony

Hi bobc, Yes a Trader's Trick Entry. A freebie method from Mr. Ross. All the other trades I have posted here are also genuine Joe Ross methods...they just cost me to find out. Thank you, Tony

Patuca, I am using 3 of the 5 setups that Joe Ross taught me. I may be missing some setups. If anyone has mentored with Joe Ross and can offer some suggestions, I would be very grateful. I am learning Volume Profile from Awais and Ziad at OpenTrader but I am having difficulty reading context in the ES. Seems random and more of a game of probabilities. Most of the time it feels like I am catching falling knives or standing in front of a train. Very different than what Joe taught me. What do you use to trade the ES? Seems like a lot of activity and decent results. Thank you. Tony

bobc, I did not learn the AMBUSH method. It is not something that Joe Ross teaches in his private mentorship. Do you have any information on it? Thank you. Tony

Patua, One of the most difficult things about trading these setups is their lack of frequency and the required patience to wait for them. However, the success rate is quite high (I am about 80% but Joe is about 90% correct). I reviewed the charts and it does not appear that I missed anything but if anyone is familiar with these setups, please provide some insight. I do like your frequency. It appears that you have found a good method for trading. I am still striving to become a better and more profitable trader. Thank you.

On your second chart, it does not appear that the candle the green arrow is pointing to is an engulfing candle. It has a lower low but now a higher high. Is that correct? Thank you.

Hi bobc, I am sorry to hear about your golf game being cancelled. However, I did meet Joe Ross in Texas in 2011 and he spent 3 days teaching me how to trade his methods. What you see here is my trading log of the trades I take with real money. He teaches 5 setups and I only use 3 of them. I am not sure of his forecasting service. He did not mention that during our time together. Did you or WHY ever learn Joe's setups? Did you ever take any private training with him? Anyway, maybe you can get a tee time on Sunday... Thank you. handle

Hi Bob, I am not sure why you keep posting "RUBBISH" on this thread. Please explain yourself and be constructive. Thank you. Tony

Patuca, I use a bar chart for trading Joe Ross's methods. He taught me with this type of chart so that is what I use. Those are great trading results. Do you post your trading log somewhere on this site? I would like to see your trading. I don't really have a good strategy for the ES. I am following FT71 and eminitrader. They both use a Market Profile approach. Both seem to have similar success as you in the ES. Thank you for your comments. Tony

Patuca, I am just posting my trading log. I did sit there for 2 days without a setup. And I do try to load the boat when I see a setup. I am open to suggestions, and if I missed a setup that I should have taken, then I would like to know that too. I am constantly trying to become a better trader. Thank you. Tony
