Hey Accrete,

I answered you earlier (talking about the Tom DeMark Trend Lines) ...SMJ
Hi again, hey this morning i cracked open TD's book again and reread the chapter on TDTLs. Have you applied his TDTL Projectors? I haven't used them much, but when i did remeber to include them in my TA for inclusion in exit strategy they were very usable/useful. How about you if you've used them?

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.
having accrete there is worth the price of admission by itself.

Hi

I done a lot of research on the vegas method.

I was wondering if in fact it has been successful with others, other than Vegas himself?

Also, what are the necessary things to look out for when using such a method?

Cheers

Rusty
I might as well throw my two pips in. Here are three of my V4 trades near the end of March. Mix these with my losses earlier in the month and I ended up with 1117 pips for March.

GBPUSD (445 pips total profit)

1st Unit off 3/23/06 @ 10:11 1.7407 (127 pips profit)
2nd Unit off 3/24/06 @ 9:30 1.7375 (159 pips profit)
3rd Unit off 3/24/06 @ 9:30 1.7375 (159 pips profit)

EURUSD (407 pips total profit)
Short 3 Units 3/20/06 @ 19:27 1.2132

3rd Unit off 3/24/06 @ 10:01 1.1996 (136 pips profit)

USDCHF (552 pips total profit)

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?

cici
Shiva is the Hindu god of destruction. But in Hinduism, that's not a bad thing because the world is created and destroyed over and over. If you have good karma, you can't wait for Shiva to come and wipe everything out.

Shiva is also associated with sex for some reason. I don't know about the number 3.

James16's and Dial's stuff in there is great for getting in and (staying) out of trades, but Fiji's money management stuff really puts things into perspective. I read that and felt like he was talking to me personally. Maybe not as glamorous, but probably a good place to start.

Hi Guys,

I am quite interested in this topic of the Vegas 4-hour tunnel method and I have just read the postings that were put on in the last 12 hours and about 10% of them actually related to the issue. Can we please keep on topic here. If you want to talk about the PF then please do it on another thread. If you want to talk about the 70's please do it on another thread. If you want to talk about cars please do it on another thread. If you want to talk about your experiences on how the 4 hour tunnel is working for you, please do it hear.

I would love to hear more about people's real life experience of it and how they have modified it as I am pretty impressed with the idea of making 1000 pips in month. I have read the documents and am going to be trying to implement it and would love more input.

Please keep on topic and cut out the pointless chit-chat.

Thanks

Simon

In the VWB Document I think I read that if the market is range bound, Vegas placed trades in both directions.

I use ROC Daily when it is range bound and I use ROC weekly when the market is trending.

My trigger to place a trade is an 8MA changing direction.
My exits are as previously described.

The tunnel is a 55 EMA of median (h+l)/2

SMJ
SMJ,

Can you please tell us how you define when the market is range bound?

Thanks
