Awesome Divergence. But you did start out on M5 charts and sharpened your skills there before hitting the microintervals. I think some of these guys would do better if they were to go back and look at your excellent Flag Trading the Trend thread and ...

Man you guys are touchy. G'luck to you all.

Money management and risk management are of paramount importance. But the emphasis placed on "small candles" and minimizing risk based up micro time frames ignore entirly the role probability plays in a positive expectancy game such as trading. ...

Whatever you have to do to keep doing the same as you've been doing.

Clearly you will just not take the time to slow down and understand what I'm saying so why not just move on and leave what I say be. I have a long history here at FF with Divergence,in this thread and others. And what I was speaking to is I see the ...

You yourself are posting what looks to be a five minute chart. None of these guys is making anything trading these 20 second MNQ's.

I wasn't putting you down. I was making the point that you are trading the NQ as it is meant to be traded. What a wasteland the internet is these days.

Trading the NQ should be done in points, not ticks. That is the reason for the lack of success in this thread, scared traders and small thinking. The goal should be measured in points, not ticks.

Five minute is a great chart to trade.

I did a google search and I came up with the following website that seems to offer the Parabolic SAR with arrow indicator for MT4 and MT5 for free. I do not vouch for this source. Just the top return on a google search. The website says it is free, ...

What is the criticism for FX at ToS? Spreads? Executions? Commissions? Great thread, BTW ... congrats!

This does not look like rockypoint's system, is it?

In an environment that often requires 10 to 20 point stops the micros have appeal for sure. Also flexibility: 10 micros = 1 mini, so scale in and scale out while keep risk profile more or less static is a benefit ads well. Other than transaction ...

I just saw your thread for the first time a couple of days ago. Its the first new thread I have subscribed to in years. Give it some time. I think you have a good method here.

I didn't take what you said as being negative at all. But if I took a hit for you, it's all good as I have no problem taking a hit for you Divergence

I'm not being negative. If I am wrong and there are 2 or more following a manual HFT trading system on the NQ netting $50K $US/year or more trading 20 second charts, I've not seen evidence of it here. I do know that the chances of netting regular ...

ES is my main squeeze as well. I got off the trading path for a wile taking care of other areas of life, but back at it now.

You are, but not seeing many here posting their outstanding success. I'm not saying it ca't be done, but trying ot be a manual HFT trader is not the road to a sustainable trading program in my opinion. Most who are "sold" on microscalping are sold ...

@traderathome! Dude, you are a sight for sore eyes! I'm am so happy to see you are still at it!

I'm not at all convinced that these microtimeframe trades are best for most retail traders. Divergence is a rare trader. Most would be better to learn to focus on the price action on the 5 minute chart.
