Reminds me of an approach by one Don Singletary, trader of Micro Futures. He uses the macd.
Look him up on Youtube.

I know we are technical traders here, but i do think about fundamentals too. What do you think is driving this rise? Is it the perceived promise of stimulus or just a knee jerk reaction to a change of the guard?

Dunno Cap, whatever the answer is, it will be speculation. +1 @ 5 scuppered a couple of good trades for me today.

Thanks for the video, I have been having the same issues myself with + 1's. Except on the micro, even though I'm set for +1 it often keeps me at zero (not registering the +1).

Are you using trailing stop for second stage + 12 after 16. If not is there another way? Would be helpful if you could share your trade windows settings if not using a trailing stop.

Messing around pre market, wished I hadn't as I would have probably stayed in this one a little longer. Made most of it back though.
