I was a Prechter for the 1987 correction. He was certain that was the top. Glenn Neely, a 'neo-elliottician' was certain, it was a correction and the DOW would go to 10,000 at minimum before the bear could take hold. What I can tell you here in ...

Seeing Through the Silent Crash

I agree with the prior two posters. I spent a LOT of time with EWT, subscribed to newsletters, studied, then studied some more. It didn't help the bottom line. I do recommend learning the basics; there are some useful concepts there.

Should I attempt Elliot Wave?

Hey Linux: Thanks for sharing your methods, philosophy. Are you saying M1 charts on MT4 are not not usable? If so, could you expand on why? Happy holidays!

Scalpers Go Here

The 'tail' on the hammer reflects either buyers or sellers coming in and turning the market decisively up or down. There's often follow-thru for at least a few subsequent candles.

Hammer time.

Hey, Keys: Is this a separate indicator based on momentum bars? If so, please share. I use the 50/14. It works very well on the hourly and above. I use it with MACD to catch divergence-based turns.

CCI

Some people love esig. I didn't. They'll have to pass on their costs for their pricey software somehow...

This has to be a good thing.

Profitable trades by definition are always with the trend. Some people just get in sooner than others...

Is The Trend Really Your Friend?

Just add in the same period moving average. If BBs are calculated on sma, use sma.

Microtrading the 1 minute chart

I have read elsewhere that solar wind indicator 'repaints'. Thanks for sharing your approach.

Frankenstein Method

If you're going to trade lower timeframes, you definitely need to account for volume/volatility, using 'juice' or ATR or equivalent. MHO.

All the BEST for M1-M5 timeframe

If you're profitable with play money, but lose with real money, what's wrong? You're not alone, amigo. Trade micro lots and do 'systematic desensitization'. Get used to making and losing in micros. When you've become comfortable with that, bump up ...

Please tell me your method!

Divergence trading works if you use multiple time frames and wait for confirmation. A 'counter trend' divergence signal on 5m can be a 'with trend' signal on the 15m or hourly. Confirmation can be a trend line break, zero line cross, MAs.

Which is more profitable: Trend or Divergence trading?

I had esignal. I don't recommend it for forex. It's ok for eminis, but there are good options that cost less like Sierra and Ensign. I used VT for a while, liked it. I use MT4 now; like the interface better and lots of folks using it and programming ...

Esignal Vs CQG VS Vttrader

MoneyDuck: Thanks for giving me the big picture. I'm in the process of adding monitor(s). Can't wait.

Show your workstation!

Moneyduck: I'm having trouble understanding what one can and can't do with multiple monitors. Here's the question: If I open up my software, I can put four charts there in each quadrant on one monitor. With four monitors, is it the same view, just ...

Has anyone used Matrox G200 MMS quad vid card? Only 32mb of memory. Wondered if that'd be sufficient. Thanks.

Show your workstation!

My advice: Not esignal. MT4 and Visual trader are free. Ensign charting is very affordable and very good.

E-Signal or Tradestation?

I watched Franz trade on a day when the markets were cruel indeed. He got slammed, managed it like a pro and worked out of it. It was impressive. He is, by far, the best trader I've ever seen trade--and, yes, I've had the opportunity to watch some ...

5% per day is achievable

Chris has mentioned a problem with system memory related to long-term use of VT. Shutting it down and re-booting takes care of it. I've had some frustrations with the software--like the navigation bar disappearing, number of bars that can be ...

VTTrader: Cms

I'm getting emails for $1395 for six markets. Whatever the market will bear, I guess. Perhaps each sales person has some lattitude and some are more agressive than others; like traders... ;-) Thru
