Nice layout, td - my YM in the PM workspace posted below (but I see you're a YM in the AM kinda guy, even though you're an hour ahead of me)... I see no ChartTrader enabled, so I guess you use the Static SuperDOM for executing trades ? I also use ...

Dreamliner - are you saying that you traded this chart with these entries in your Live account with what Ed Seykota might call "a meaningful amount of money" ? Ed defines "meaningful" as an amount that makes the profits worthwhile (for example, if ...

Splendid, thank-you..... but this is an unusually long pre-flight routine - the thread's >50 posts & you still have not practically shared your very profitable method... Please show us the bird can actually fly...

Capisco. I thought you liked 2b reversals from lows & highs - maybe just swing lows and highs (?) - but what you're saying here is, for example, low of the day support breaks @ 16000, two closes down to 15880 & we now have 16000 as resistance, price ...

You too, 'ras - but why not trade live in sim & keep monitoring your % correct stat ? I have the impression you've backtested this to kingdom come already... when you have a good, positive month, go live. This way you hone the absolutely essential ...

Two closing comments from me: H : could you not add a slower MACD to your 333 to duplicate the xover points on the 999 (to save having to look at a second chart) ? dd : I'm with you on the attraction of the YM... but in the context of your "small ...
