I think it would be if we were taking signals off a fast chart like the 512 tick or the 30 second. But these are 5 minute candles. Very leidurely pace. Yo even know when it is safe to get up for another cup of coffee or grab your lunch. So far today ...

I wrote about "wedging" price action on my blog in a post a day or so ago. This would typically have been a buy signal for me, and at some point I will cover how I trade it. For now, I aam only taking the 5,3,3 set ups as they come. We have not had ...

It is forcing me to be consistent myself. After taking an extended break from trading I found myself making some undisciplined errors. The blog is as much for me to improve myself as it is to share with others. The twenty trade challenge is probably ...

Two things: First, a third long signal completed its ideal profit target of +4 points. However, per stop rules again the profit would have been truncate prematurely. I did not take it as I had to pick up one of my kids at school this afternoon. The ...

Yes. I am doing the blog system as a "long only" method for now, but if I were running the short sigals also there were three, with short entries during the bars ending at 10:05 AM, 11:05 AM, and 12:15 PM Eastern. 11:50 could have been sold also, ...

I was discussing the concept of "Three pushes" market behavior in last night's blog post. Here is a potential for three pushes, or we may have the first higher low of the day which would again put us on the look out for long signals. image

It took some patience, but here is the first trade for a +4 point profit at 2Xactual risk image I have to say that this is a very relaxed way of trading. You either have a signal or you don't. If you have a signal you place the order. If ...

You've done and continue to do great work, Harold. You are the reason I came back to FF at all. I'm sure you already know how much folks here appreciate you. I have a number of PM's in my in box singing your praises if you do not realize how much ...

For the blog, I really wanted to come up with a method that could be very mechanical as well as unambiguous. Trading the 123's and 2B's is excellent. But as we have seen here, it is not always clear and unambiguous to the uninitiated as to whether ...

New blog post: it is long but I myself feel I learned, or at least re-learned a whole lot but going through today's price action carefully and completely. I hope you all enjoy it. url

As with any market there will be dull days and active days. As Divergence will tell you, most days you can count on tradable action between 9:30 AM and 12 noon. I also trade pre-market as well if a set up arises, though I am trying to keep myself ...

It will definitely change the reading. You can use the 24 hour data to trade the system. Just be aware that the signals will likely be somewhat different, especially for the first hour or so until the day session "catches up" or something like that. ...
