07:38 palmer: 5 min projection
07:39 koolblue: yup
07:39 VO: I suspect that today will be a day of retrace from our move yesterday...am not expecting much, if any, upside follow through today
07:40 palmer: kool like on a play like this where do you put your stop
07:40 palmer: 2 points?
07:40 koolblue: I agree.... daily chart clearly had yesterday as a peak
07:40 koolblue: 1.75 stop.
07:41 koolblue: stop is 809.25 currently...sorry 1.5
07:41 palmer: but 3 is your normal stop
07:42 koolblue: correct
07:42 koolblue: my reasoning here is that if it breaks all these avgs here, then itll likely head back to 808 minimum!
07:44 koolblue: note that the 1 min bar at 7:15 is already saying 808.25 unless 811.75 is touched again
07:44 palmer: ticks were 1255 yesterday
07:44 koolblue: and if 807.50 doesnt hold then 797.50 could be in play
07:47 VO: 97.50 being 60m proj
07:47 koolblue: daily chart shows another peak tomorrow, but if it comes at a lower high ,that would be very negative!
07:48 koolblue: good! 811.75 was touched again negating that 808.25 projection
07:52 koolblue: all the 1 min averages are between 810.50 and 811.00

11:44 feng456: ok thanks a lot I will be going back to the bank -.-
11:44 feng456: and i'll keep sim trading till then
11:45 LordAlfa: No matter what Kool says about him being ill disciplined. In fact he is very disciplined in his method
11:47 feng456: wat me?
11:47 feng456: I dont have sound on
11:47 LordAlfa: Kool
11:48 LordAlfa: Kool is in fact very disciplined in his method
11:48 feng456: oh
11:48 feng456: well see I was and thats what really annoys me is I did everythign right and everything I could possibly do
11:48 LordAlfa: Not for staying in the trade for long but he know what and when he needs to execute.
11:48 feng456: and fate hands me the worst day in a week
11:49 feng456: well one thing he has over me is experience
11:49 LordAlfa: Should stay on a maximum drawdown for the day. Say 3x 2pt loss mean shutdown and get away. The market is not in your favor
11:50 LordAlfa: Experience is something we earn daily.
11:50 feng456: well when I backtested my plan called for taking every possible trade in a day
11:50 LordAlfa: The money is secondary. Continue trading in sim
11:50 feng456: and the results were good...
11:50 feng456: I think the worst day was down 4 points
11:50 feng456: best was up 27
11:51 feng456: and none of the days would I have reached my daily stop anyway
11:51 LordAlfa: My best days was +56 and worst -33. So I have my fair share. So don't despair.
11:52 LordAlfa: We are all in the same boat going somewhere.
11:52 feng456: im amazingly calm for losing most of my life savings
11:53 bruce9432: feng, after back testing did you run it on a simulator?
11:53 feng456: ok what my strategy allows me to do is pinpoint to the tick (minus slippage) my entries and exits
11:54 LordAlfa: Did you read The Disciplined Trader?
11:54 palmer: miss me @13.50
11:54 palmer: sucks
11:54 feng456: no I really dont think discipline was the problem today
11:54 LordAlfa: Mark went thru this phase.
11:54 feng456: it was what I wouldve done if I was backtesting
11:54 LordAlfa: He was clam after he lost everything.
11:54 feng456: and then...?
11:54 LordAlfa: Stop beating yourself.
11:54 feng456: he shot himself?
11:55 LordAlfa: Well. He found that there are more things important in life
11:55 feng456: well yes...
11:55 LordAlfa: Stick to that
11:55 feng456: and keep trading right?
11:56 LordAlfa: yep. but approach it in a different mid.
11:56 VO: flat 10.50

12:10 gila: thanks lord alfa fr your pdf
12:11 feng456: yea now I dont have to go get a stupid library card
12:13 koolblue: chickened out at 809.00...
12:13 koolblue: plus half a handle
12:14 LordAlfa: Feng. Its my FTP server. So I am the government. I'll tax you for the downloads
12:14 feng456: im in canada
12:14 feng456: so joke is on u
12:15 LordAlfa: Are you Chinese?
12:15 feng456: yes
12:15 feng456: my name gave it away?
12:17 koolblue: selling 811.00
12:18 koolblue: short again at 811.00
12:24 PDQ: ......Potential 1 minute "Buy Anti" setting up.....bidding 810.50............Target is 814.50 area..........
12:28 PDQ: Yep...already hit and exceeded the 161.8% UP projection.....looking for a pullback to enter........9.75 to 10.50 area should be a good entry area.....IF it gets there :-)
12:33 koolblue: stopped at 813.50...loss of 2.5...now up 7.25
12:38 PDQ: The "Buy Anti" objective is equal swings - putting the upside target (for the Anti) at 815.00......
12:38 koolblue: selling 814.50
12:39 PDQ: What is your 15m downside projection Kool?
12:41 PDQ: Hmmmm.....I'm looking for more pullback to set up a 30m Grail Buy........20 EMA is at 803.34 and rising right now......
12:43 VO: I have 15m from 9:15 that gives 3.75
12:44 PDQ: Looks like a divergent double top on the 5 minute chart.....and the little Buy Anti and Kool's projection both appear to have failed....
12:45 PDQ: Thanks VO......should be a pretty good buying area...........
12:50 PDQ: If the rules of Harmonic patterns allow that 5 minute double top, then a Bullish Butterfly would set up between 802.75 and 804.25 area.....
12:51 VO: depends on who ur asking
12:53 PDQ: Well, there's both targets hit, but it was the long way around the barn to get there :-)
12:53 koolblue: short one from 814.75
12:55 PDQ: Ok VO, do we have a Bearish Butterfly setting up now on the 5 minute chart?
12:56 PDQ: 817.75 area for the Bearish Butterfly short entry???
12:57 VO: yeah
