What follows is not my original thoughts. I do not wish to cite the source as the source itself has information in it that I think is contrary and at cross-purposes to the nuggets of gold within it. But if someone recognizes what is posted below, ...

This is a more thorough documentary on the roulette team profiled in the video linked above for anyone interested. Gonzalo Garcia-Pelayo: Roulette Assault - Breaking Vegas

For me, the big takeaway was the willingness and ability to take the loss, and to take a string of losses, without wavering from the system. In roulette, once you place your bet and the wheel is spinning, there is no cutting the loss, moving a stop ...

Someday I may take the time to explain why, imo, this is the best trading video I've ever seen. I am sharing it here because it has had an incredibly positive impact on my own trading. Some will no doubt ridicule the notion that a video about a ...

The M15 has always been my favorite but I stray away from it because of the perceived risk, especially on the NQ given the extent of some M15 candles. That is, of course, my problem, and not a problem with the M15. So I chase M1, M2, M5, renko and ...

I'll give you all one guess as to who our mult-inick troll is. If you have any pattern recognition skills whatsoever it should be obvious.

Williams%R, SAR X-over 15 minute candles

I rarely hit for the whole move. For the ES, for example, I usually have a fixed TP of 4 points up to 10 points when the market volatility is high. My avergae take profit on ES is probably 4 points, which is only 16 ticks. I always use an ATM ...

Williams%R, SAR X-over 15 minute candles

Very sad if true and I'm hoping that it is incorrect. The thread may not get much activity, but it is well worth studying. Study this thread and Laura's journal thread. Many of us have adopted or adapted the roadmap to fit with other methods or ...

I'm with you turnip. We should turn the clocks back next week to standard time and then leave them there.

MTF Engulf / Engulf fail

Thanks RickM. I myself have moved away from the renko charts over the last six months or so. I was posted that more to give rocky food for thought than anything else. The squeeze indicator seems like a very good fit for him given his current ...

Williams%R, SAR X-over 15 minute candles

If I were using time based candles rather than renko, I'd not use the the Heiken Ashi and I would use straight M1 or M5 bars instead, and I'd add the TTM squeeze indicator that RickM is using. Here is the squeeze indicator for ninjatrader: Squeeze ...

Williams%R, SAR X-over 15 minute candles

None of the currencies really move like they used to on a regular enough basis for the rocky method to work well on them. Even when I trade the 6J, I am using more of Stacey Burke method using timing, levels, and the behhavior of price at those ...

If I were trading Asia I would probably want to stick with the 6J contract which is the Yen futures. Your firm may not offer USDJPY, but check to see if they offer 6J. If I were trading London or NYC using the rocky method I would probably stick to ...

I presume the data used to calculate the indicators is taken from the base renko, as the HA candles are themselves an additional indicator applied to the base renko data. I am not 100% certain, but I am almost that certain.

It is Columbus Day/Indigenous People's Day and it is a holiday for the Federal Reserve. I'm not trading any of the currency futres today and instead I will focus on the US index futures, NQ for the Tech100 and YM for the Dow30. NQ had a nice rally ...

Yen Futures stayed inside the range of the 3 or 4 seconds after yesterday's CPI data release. Today more inflation related data set to be released at 8:30 AM and the Yen is rallying slowly back to yesterday's midpoint. I'd not be surprised if the ...
