Better Sine Wave from Emini Watch.



The first I view as selling. The second most likely selling but less sure about that one. The negative divergences in better momentum tell me more trades...

Interesting that there is a bullish view of crude here, my take is bearish. Could go up another day or two before heading down. If it breaks out to the upside then that would be quite bullish for...

Pivot Farm publishes a lot of levels including MP levels, every day.

That said I think the Value Areas should be more discretionary because a set 70% isn't as meaningful. I look at the price...

It's unfortunate they have a one-time fee cause that makes trying it out for a month very expensive. What use are the indicators without the software? Doesn't make sense unless one is going to...

That's my problem, I don't want to take a few days of heat with CL. That could be $2000-$5000. Trading USO is one choice. QM is another. but for me it's more about practicing and testing my...

For my method, swing trades are very similar to day trades just, as you say, on a higher timeframe.

As it turns out my idea for a short CL trade would have worked perfectly. I don't swing trade...

Is it possible to have a profile with each TPO being 1 day? I'd like to see a composite of the past 6 months. The only way I can find to do this with market profile is to merge each day by hand and...

Do you guys use 24 hour charts for market profile? What start time do you use? I have been debating between 24h for CL or using the pit hours.

I'm not suggesting we add Keltner & Stochastics. Those are just aids for him to enter & exit. IMHO the important concept I learned from his page is fading moves to the naked POC's. How you enter &...

Difficult for me too. I only got one good move out of CL. The rest was choppy.

My read of the ES volume is that professionals are accumulating and continued doing so down to the low today. The...
