Quoting Goyatrade
Turnip, I totally agree with the first half of your post!! But i wish you would consider the second half, please!! There are definitely still a few that will benefit from your posts!! Wish you a great weekend!!
Okay Goya - I am now with TradeStation and have problems showing actual trades on chart ( web based due to my being on iMac and not liking parallels etc) and the web platform has nothing apart from line tools, otherwise I like it and the very tight spreads. So I expect readers to be familiar with this thread and to be able to pick out Lara type entries. So yes- if you can bear with me not posting annotated charts showing entries etc then I am happy to post now and again. Hope you are doing well.

Okay morning dax.
8;13am short -win
8:26 ( broke at 8;28) win -note hit "Look left" line twice so get out ( could always get back in if broke through but I like me 5 pips minimum - so will get in more than once if necessary - tight spread helps)
8:42am - silly short bang on 200ma loser . 13600 is now projected across as a floor ( 200 is very flat now) -so we wait
8:54am more bounces off the look left - still waiting.
9:09am channel lifting and price breaks previous green that popped out of channel -long - stopped out
09:16 price popped below13600 consolidations refereed to above at 8:42am - next bar didn't trigger so wait.
09:27 long -price broke previous bar that popped out of 8ma channel - closed at 13625 -bars were hitting 13624 ish more than once around upper "look left" bar so get out and draw line across horizontal around 13626 and watch.

As an aside look at 13:24 hours on the Nasdaq one minute chart -if you're the sort that watch the screen all day you would have been in a long that blasted off to the moon

{quote} Rubbish -read Laura's methodology and you will see that the net result was positive. But such research is up to you since I have nothing to sell or prove and would prefer each person to actually study and try it for themselves. If not for you, then move on. I will post no more charts since I feel there is enough in this thread to allow the serious student to acquire sufficient knowledge to allow them to dip their toes into the water and learn by doing.
Im sorry in case i hurt u with inappropriate question. It was just my doubt . Asked for learning purpose only in case i missed out something.

Nasdaq UK morning so far. (Finish ten thirty)
0813 bar - Broke short on 0814 bar.......stopped out ( panicked out ) by 0820am bar
0827 -short on 0828 break....winner
0848- broke long on 0849 bar.....winner

Sorry for lack of drawing lines. Tradestation is limited (web version) - I am changing over to Tradestation with tradeView charts soon. So I can scribble and draw as much as I want :-)

No I'm not - trading View wants extra dosh ( call me a tightwad -okay I am)- Tradestation charts have all I need minus ability to draw rectangles etc.

So -this afternoon Nasdaq Futures were excellent albeit I waited until about 2:50 pm before trading, price pulling back - (Big price bars worry me because they could just as easily whip you around) - I prefer smaller bars in calmer waters. Braver souls would have leapt in maybe but the pain of a rapidly escalating loss might deter you in future
