P.S. I don't know what Dial looks like, but after hearing him on the phone, I'll bet he is soooo cute! Even if he's ugly, he'll always be my hero!
Hi Mich,

You haven't seen Dial? You may wanna check this post out:

I consider it my breeding ground... Well, the public area too but in there is much more fun for me...

Hope this helps,

Nice Trident!
A powerful symbol of the power of 3 whether its on a maserati going 130mph down the portobello road or a divine staff in the hand of Lord Shiva.
My brother has the new Quattroporte it is uuuuuunbeleivable......!

I have been seeing the power of three in strategy.

Ah yes, from DeMark's "The New Science of Technical Analysis", a good read. I still have a challenge going from the right side of my chart backward with all the "other" training i've recieved! But i'm working on it.

In your use of the TDTLs verses standard drawn TLs, do you fine DeMark's a better fit?

THX,

only for the most recent trend line. I find longer term trend line are better done using the most swing points to contain the most data.

I lost my license now I don't drive.

Joe Walsh's, "Life's Been Good "

So using the rate of change. Don't remember reading that in the four-hour strategy , all have to take a look.

Although I have experimented with the TD trend line it does work well.On the one-hour as well
It is not in the 4 hour strategy, but then I also remember reading Vegas saying Change you you need to and make it your own. Besides, it's just trading, not religion or brain surgery. ha ha...

ok pulled my first trade using 4hr vegas tunnel and 1 hr vegas tunnel

So far up 105 pips and counting.

Anyways, next step for me to figure out, is where to take profits.

I would like to know how i can incorporate the fibs Vegas mentions on MT4 from the ma's.

Does anyone know how to do this?

I am not clear on your question. Are you asking how to make the fib lines? ie, what are they? or are you asking how to program them into MT4?
If you are asking what are they, they are displacements from the MA tunnel the appropriate number of pips, say 144 and -144, 233, and -233 etc.

There are already several really good MT4 indicators available on this forum for VWB systems. I do not use MT4 so I do not know how they work.

Take your profits and stops as previously described in the Vegas Docs, also you could use TA for good stop loss positioning.
Even the one on high him self Vegas says, change it if you wish and make it your own.

Thanks SMJ

ps, Are you enjoying the wild ride on GBPUSD? Mine started on 04/03/06 at 14:00 at 1.7391 and one lot has already limited out at the 55 ma tunnel.

Have fun. SMJ

A member of the Private Forum just posted a gain of 2207 pips since March 23rd using a variation of the Vegas 4 hour system that is being taught in the PF. This is just one of several PF subscribers making hundreds of pips each month from being in the PF!

I'm still learning from Jim and Dial and Fiji. I don't post much anymore, but I readreadreadread everything those guys say! Being in the PF is the best thing that ever happened to my trading.

Here's a late update to the James16 Group website (www.james16group.com)

Mike, After Talking with several people who are already members and getting their input, I am joining this private forum today. YOU da BOMBs. It appears to me that your group is definitely a good deal regardless of the monthly subscription, but at $99 per month, that is phenomenal.. I have a lot to learn from the group and look forward to it.

Thanks for the information, SMJ

Hm, after reading all these nice results I think I will start to test the 4h method in addition to VWB... Waiting for a good VWB setup can take a long time and the 4h method can add some good high probability trades. The more opportunities the better!

THX S. I too find myself relying on the "old ways" for the big picture, and also like the TDTLs for a break-in-the-direction-of-trend indicator line/mark. It is a nice heads up for me for both new and re-entries.

(P.S. thx for the kudos also :-)

For better or worse Jim, I can agree w/your statment 100%. In fact, so much so, i didn't bother w/my H.S. reunions as i didn't think i'd have any "friends" there to congregate with!..sad to say, that is literally the truth ,-(

S. Welcome to the "Club", you will enjoy it over there greatly. One very cool side benny of not only the FF in general, but also on a more intense level in the PF is that there are so many individuals all working toward the same goal it's like a synergy thingy, we are all stronger/better traders because of all of our combined/shared knowledge. I've enjoyed the communique' w/you and look forward to your posts/ideas.

Go to the Beginners Forum and download the indicator you'll find in post #2 of the sticky thread called "All Vegas Documents Located Here".

This is the one I use because it is simple, clean and bug free. It's also the original from Team Aphid!

"I ended the month up 2200 pips trading Knife and Vegas. (Come on AUD/USD)
After loosing my ass in my first year of trading, I am so excited Vegas, Dial, James, and Fiji have shared their knowledge with us I can’t contain my self. I can’t wait for these methods to be so engrained in my brain that I can see the trades setting up in my sleep."

Yes, it's a great deal! Like buying a Harley Hog for the price of a tricycle!

FYI, I read on the james16group.com website that the price will be increaing to $129 on April 10th, but anyone who joins before then will be grandfathered at $99 for as long as they remain a member.

I like Dial too, but not the way MikeG does! Woohoo! Don Dial, the lady killer! :

Hi Rusty! good to see this thread.
Thanks Swami,

Yes, the new Quattroporte has to be seen in person to be appreciated. Awesome car! It had better be at $120K.

Yes, good things do seem to come in three's. I don't know who Shiva is, but I thought of the Christian Trinity (you know the dirge "Father, Son & Holy Ghost")

Is "Lord Shiva" another name for Poseidon?
