JMaurice replied Feb 29, 2016WHOA! Very nice work - this is much, much easier to review than going through the thread. Thank you - This should be a mandatory read before anyone posts to the thread.

JMaurice replied Feb 28, 2016Thank you, good luck to you as well! I will be here - just trying to lay out a plan for myself. I started with a live account when I was told to start with a demo account and I believe scarred myself, so to speak, such that my learning curve was ...

JMaurice replied Feb 28, 2016Dove- This past week and weekend with your help has cleared up so many of my questions. I KNOW I don't see the full potential of all the components of your system, but of the components I do understand, I see how consistently profitable entries can ...

JMaurice replied Feb 28, 2016Yes, but you also said, "Then you wait until the 1 hour is consistent with the 2 hour before you get into a trade." I'm not trying to be difficult; a majority of my walk-forward back testing has been on the 2HR chart with no regard for the 1HR and ...

JMaurice replied Feb 28, 2016Thank you for the response. So if the 2HR always overrides the 1HR, can I use the 2HR only?

JMaurice replied Feb 28, 2016So the only reason I didn't take this is because the 1HR is not consistent with the 2HR. Or am I understanding that incorrectly? Do I need to use the 1HR? It seems that any potential trade on the 1HR needs to be validated by the 2HR anyway, so any ...

JMaurice replied Feb 28, 2016Thank you. I have not been paying any attention to the MACD because I was not quite sure how to use it, but will try to add it to the list of things I am looking for. Sort of like an onion - trying to peel off one layer at a time till I have it all. ...

JMaurice replied Feb 28, 2016Yes, once White crosses Purple the Parabolic is eliminated as Resistance. In this instance, the White was at Purple and Dove felt comfortable with the previous 7 hour consolidation, the Green arrow indicating market got above EMA, and the MACD ...

JMaurice replied Feb 28, 2016This is what I was trying to get at yesterday - on the long downtrend, we had two SAR retraces I showed in a picture yesterday. Both those examples were used as entries back into the trend. However, on Thursday we had one more SAR retrace, but this ...

JMaurice replied Feb 27, 2016How many points of contact do you prefer (i.e. how many highs do you want to connect) prior to the breakout trade setting up? Do you prefer to wait for the pullback to the trendline, or just after a close confirming the break? What do you target on ...

JMaurice replied Feb 27, 2016That is my understanding, yes. Retracement and entry back into the trend.

JMaurice replied Feb 27, 2016Okay, thank you. I will try to go through this again to clarify in my mind: In the image you posted, Parbolic and EMA were in heavy downtrend, but the Parabolic was eliminated by White crossing Purple. In the examples I posted, White had not crossed ...

JMaurice replied Feb 27, 2016So Dove, in this example, the SAR attaching to the top is telling us that the trend is now changing to up (from the down trend we were in). However, in other instances we see that the SAR attaching to the top can be used an entry back into the ...

JMaurice replied Feb 27, 2016Dove, may I ask, what time zone do you live in? You mention your trading times at a couple points and I want to compare that to my own. If not, no problem. Thank you.

JMaurice replied Feb 27, 2016I understand - thank you. My confusion appears to have been a problem with my reading comprehension. Going back through the thread again this weekend; its amazing to see what previously made no sense to me now makes much more sense. Each time its a ...
