ok, I'll send you a PM later,before I forget, my thought was this..if you use the levels of a certain leg, would you be able to use your levels as a filter against say some fibs on the retrace..
yeah.. excellent idea actually. should be good, but certainly need to discuss this in greater detail.

hmm.. why would you add them ?

I took all the stdev and filtered out the highest ones. went up high enough so only a few came out.
No, not add them. But if you had multiple days with the same close, I meant maybe average them (stdev is linear in price; you can legitimately average sub-sample stdev values if the sub-samples are independent).

Sorry, darimik, I got a phone call that went on quite a long time. Friend is having emergency heart surgery tomorrow. Real bugger.

Anyway, I'm interested in your data and your results. 60000 data points opens the door to all kinds of things, some of which can actually be useful.

hmm.. why would you add them ? it measures the variability in price..I would have to think about adding the stdevs and the outcome that it would give. seems like in theory, a price levels would carry a certain volatility and the number of occurrences should not matter.

I took all the stdev and filtered out the highest ones. went up high enough so only a few came out.
Good eve....Mor....night all,

Whats Going on/... whatever it is...

Is it working for E/U? if so How accurate are the levels....With however you guys are calculating.... Can you make a call....from where to where?

Thanks,

I'm going to read the comics and go to bed. This really is Groundhog Day. Short again, only tonight everything is decoupled, and have no gut feeling whatsoever as to what might happen. Down for the week realized, up just about enough to buy a candy bar including unrealized on this short.

Five year auction today went at one percent. Record low yield, of course. Again. Bills are negative forward, and the curve is steepening after 10 years. That matters only because it means there is still capital flow into USD. So that should mean I should be happy to be short. But right now, who knows.
