  1. I have been down that road. Someone asks for more. Then someone else asks for even more. And it never stops! Wouldn't it be better to sit back, wait and let the thread starter share? Who knows what could be revealed IF ONLY the thread starter got a chance to post without being attacked or have demands thrown in their face? Trading it tough (though simple) and you need thick skin, however, that doesn't give the reader the right to be rude or unkind. It's too bad ALL forums don't allow the thread starter to moderate their threads. Most of the rude comments would never see the light of day!!
  2. Price does NOT move sideways. For price to MOVE, it has to CHANGE. QED.

  6. No matter what forum, no matter what thread, there is USUALLY someone who comes along, EGO IN TOW, and tells the world why the thread starters message, system, method, indicator, etc... is wrong, doesn't work, is B.S., is fraud, etc... The is the second thread (of the 2 I have read so far) in the TL newsletter (in my inbox today) where this has occurred. And to think it's the holiday season - a time of good tidings and well wishes.... LMAO!! :o My favorites are the people who say, "YOU MUST UNDERSTAND PRICE ACTION" or "YOU MUST UNDERSTAND HOW THE MARKET WORKS" but who NEVER explain these in a way that is easy to understand and. Happy Holidays
  7. Hello, lylec305. I have been coding and trading since the 1970s. When I first started out posting my methods and indicators on forums (TradeStation, eSignal), the forum bullies attacked me, too. I battled back and wound up getting banned. I would hate to see that happen to you. May I suggest you read, "Tim Ferriss Scam! Practical Tactics for Dealing with Haters". Just google what's between the quotes to find his blog post and video. I also borrow this Dr. Sivaraman quote to reply to forum bullies: “I am not forcing you to accept my concepts. I only request the traders to review the market from time to time keeping in mind my concepts and if found suitable use in the trades or just ignore. Thanks for your opinion.” Happy Holidays. P.S. Interesting this thread was featured in the TL Newsletter that was in my inbox this morning.
  8. <--------------------------------------------------------------------> 1) Price within 20 pips of the daily low (ClLo < 20) - that is OPPORTUNITY <--------------------------------------------------------------------> The important part is to enter WITHIN 20 pips of the daily low. The RAT REVERSAL is only one entry method. <--------------------------------------------------------------------> Trading is GUESSING. If it wasn't, you wouldn't need a STOP LOSS. THINK ABOUT IT!! <--------------------------------------------------------------------> MAXIMUM RISK = 2% * ACCOUNT BALANCE. STOP LOSS = 10 PIPS. (INCLUDING SPREAD) POSITION SIZE = RISK / STOP LOSS. <--------------------------------------------------------------------> 1) To trade like a RAT is to ALWAYS trade in ONE DIRECTION - either LONG or SHORT. Once you pick a "team", you can't switch. 2) The "within 20 pips of the daily high/low" is the BEST possible entry to get the maximum run BUT the RAT REVERSAL entry works ANYWHERE on the chart. <--------------------------------------------------------------------> PLEASE DO NOT PM ME WITH QUESTIONS ABOUT TRADING, INDICATORS, CODING, ETC...

  9. Same method, different week... "Look, for example, at this elegant little experiment. A rat was put in a T-shaped maze with a few morsels of food placed on either the far right or left side of the enclosure. The placement of the food is randomly determined, but the dice is rigged: over the long run, the food was placed on the left side sixty per cent of the time. How did the rat respond? It quickly realized that the left side was more rewarding. As a result, it always went to the left, which resulted in a sixty percent success rate. The rat didn't strive for perfection. It didn't search for a Unified Theory of the T-shaped maze, or try to decipher the disorder. Instead, it accepted the inherent uncertainty of the reward and learned to settle for the best possible alternative. The experiment was then repeated with Yale undergraduates. Unlike the rat, their swollen brains stubbornly searched for the elusive pattern that determined the placement of the reward. They made predictions and then tried to learn from their prediction errors. The problem was that there was nothing to predict: the randomness was real. Because the students refused to settle for a 60 percent success rate, they ended up with a 52 percent success rate. Although most of the students were convinced they were making progress towards identifying the underlying algorithm, they were actually being outsmarted by a rat." P64 HOW WE DECIDE (italics added) ========================= ==================== "Now, 2 patterns of market behavior happen on a regular basis: 1) the price breaks to new high's (or low's) 2) the price reverses from new high's (or low's) They happen regardless of time frame (with the obvious limitations explained above) They are phenomena that can be exploited without the fear if found out by others, that they might cease to exist." - H. Rearden ========================= ==================== 1) Price within 20 pips of the daily low (ClLo < 20): This is OPPORTUNITY ========================= =================== WHY ISN'T EVERYBODY DOING IT? Most of you know I catch a lot of flak on my forums because SOME PEOPLE don't like the way I post. One worn out argument that is used repeatedly is, "If this is so (simple, great, profitable, ), then why isn't everybody doing it?" Simple answer is because SOYLENT GREEN is people! We all know exercise is great, but how many actually exercise? We all know smoking is bad, but how many do it anyway? We all know which foods are bad for our health, but how many eat those foods? We all know that we should save for our future and spend less than we earn but who does that? The list is almost endless. As long as there are people, there will always be some STUPID people and some smart people making STUPID decisions, where STUPID is defined as knowing better but acting otherwise. Meanwhile, the RATS are still beating the Yale students. ========================= ==================== PLEASE DO NOT PM ME WITH QUESTIONS ABOUT TRADING, INDICATORS, CODING, ETC...

  16. Look at the chart. The dark yellow area is the ASIAN SESSION, the dark red area is the LONDON SESSION, and the dark blue area is the NEW YORK SESSION. Does is matter? Look and see!! Keep it simple, use your broker's D1 candle to determine the start/end of the day.
