first off, I want to thank all the prayers and thoughts for my sister in law. after a 5 1/2 hour surgery friday she was released this weekend. very encouraging
report, all visible cancer removed and no indication it had spread. more tests to follow, but very good new for us.
God Bless and thank you .

now for a couple of trade attempts this morning, a pus 10T on a 123, missed a couple more on the way up, and took an early attempt (mistake) for a plus 4T
I closed out manually, concentration still not fully there.
good luck
regards

fomc today and triple witching on friday should make for some interesting moves. chased one trade up and down since the open for a plus 10T.
that's it until the lull after the meeting (probably tmro).

+15 Missed the last couple of sessions, but have been doing a lot of watching due to a few failures earlier in the month. Nothing serious, but with a small stake (tight stops) you have to keep your eye firmly on the reality of the situation. Even in the annoying YM I have missed some significant opportunities, but most of us won't have the patience (nor with a bigger account would you need it). For instance, on that last trade I called the bottom of the previous swing - BUT I didn't have the stops.

Much as I prefer the aesthetics of wickless candles, I have made some improvements by going back to where I started with OHLC using wicks rather than bodies. Whether it is my data feed or not, I can watch Harolds video's - totally get what he's doing but on the day but then can't spot the differences in candle bodies as shown in his video's.

I think we arrived at something like this earlier on in the thread, but I'd forgotten it.

Anyway, off for a couple of days so keep on keeping on guys.

..fantastic trading - would be great to watch you do this live again...what you do sounds simple but you have an edge very few are able to replicate.

I've been MIA...Since Sierra made their switch to being direct to consumer, I've been on the hunt for a different set up. I even did a trial for a new charting program. I tried MotiveWave, which is really pretty good and more affordable than Sierra! Some of you younger folks may like it. I do not want to learn a whole new charting package though.

Finally funded a new account with a different clearing house and IB. Going with Stage 5 Trading and Dorman Clearing. I'm finalizing the Sierra side of things now. This has been a journey.
Lord, Liar, Lunatic. Those are only 3 options to Christ's diety claim.

I've been thinking about this over the weekend. I love Sierra & don't want to change, plus I've set up all kinds of stuff in it. I've been messing around with trading view, but I got used to 20 Second charts, so if I'm going to pay $14 per month for that I'll go the extra $10 for Sierra. I keep telling myself I shouldn't be trading if I can't afford Sierra. But, all I need is some drawing tools, a 20 second chart & right click to enter where I place the cursor.

Trading view is close, but 15 or second charts only from what I can see. I like the fact that it runs in a browser.
