Just in case any of you were wondering why I named the thread "Stairstep"...

Glad to hear it! How about posting a few charts so we can all see what you've been up to this month?

I love Melbourne. Easily one of my 5 favorite cities in the world. I've been 4 times, and I've performed dozens of shows down by the Yara in the evenings during the summer. Perfect place for busking. If I could find the right pretty Aussie babe I'd ...

Do me a favor Scott and try to send me one. Let's see if we can figure out what the deal is. RE the indi: I assumed that was the case, but you were describing it like it could do more. Just wanted to make sure. I only posted my question here because ...

Mer, is your download in post #545 an indi or an EA? You talk about it like it can take trades and adjust the trailing stops on them based on fib numbers. Can it? Also, I've sent you 3 PM's by now. Is your PM function turned off, or are you just ...

Hey guys, notice the time? What you guys are witnessing right now is an Asian shakeout. As such, I don't give it too much notice. However, an EA would have already opened a Short by now according to my rules. But sitting here watching the chart ...

Price has now retraced to an earlier CZ. Any guesses as to whether or not price will consolidate here again too? Will a CZ be made here today? Curious minds want to know...

"That ended up being a very nice breakout to the upside." You can say that again!

Now almost 8:30 AM in Europe and still stuck in the CZ's range. Just waiting for a Big Dog somewhere to step up and make the market move. Eager to see what sort of volatility follows this range...

G/U opens with a CZ that started on Friday. A few bars have been added already today in this pic, and everything is looking typical. In my opinion the volatility of this CZ is bascially back to normal, or how things were before the default situation ...

@ Mer: Sorry Scott, I got sidetracked before I could comment on your post #556. I just wanted to say that I see what you mean regarding the 61.8 fib, and that I also think that a similar jump stop would be beneficial to the EA. Whether it should be ...

Yeah, I got that impression. I've never read any of the guys stuff before here, but when all he did was focus on the one meaningless pic I caught on real quick. I tried to let him off easy, but then he just doubled down on his arrogance. Good ...

Since you are coming across as a person I'm no longer interested in helping succeed with this indicator and subsequent EA, you need not worry about any further posts of mine as it just won't happen again. As you wish. Good bye...

@ JohnnyBSmart: I appreciate good advice and good sportmanship, and you seem to have both. But there are 3 keys points in your last post that I feel I must address before things get out of hand. First is your statement that price rarely goes flat in ...

Extreme consolidation (what I am looking for) and volatility are opposites. That Squalou's indi isn't finding any CZ's over the last few days, is explained by market volatility (what you are looking for). CZ's are actually a break from volatility, ...

You can go either way, Forest. Trading is subjective, and my method is flexible enough to allow for personal preferences. I only caution against over trading. I urge everyone to fight to need to be "always in". You should instead be willing to sit ...

I like this philosophy alot, Mer. Not being a "Fib guy" I don't know if Fibs are really the best tool for deciding this Trailing value, but in general I will be pushing for a similar parameter once the EA gets operational. I certainly see the value ...

Squalou has agreed to take over the building of our EA from Steve. But he is on vacation with his family until the end of the month, so don't expect any more modifications on either the indi or the EA until at least mid-September. Everyone: If you ...
