Well said gsx.

In addition to using stockcharts.com, you can get a monthly platform from OpenECry. There is a trial period after which there is a small monthly fee for the platform AND data.
Or just sign up again after the trial period for another account, as needed.

Customers of OEC can get this fee waived; if you ask nicely, I hear.

Big surprise, I mention OEC and here comes FS.

Yes, you can try to beat the system and create multiple accounts.

And yes, if you trade size (aka no piker accounts) you just might be able to get that sim account for free.

No surprise here, but FS has no idea what I am talking about.

Like I said, piker accounts need not apply for a free sim account.



I don't know why you want to keep bringing this up FS, but you seem to enjoy the fact that I point out time and time again that you must obviously be trading a whole $5,000 dollars in your account and can't qualify for a free sim account.

But hell, if you want to keep bringing it up, I'll be more than happy to point out what a piker you are.

This member is the original thread starter. Re: Best of the Worst

I appreciate your replies, but none are specific. Can't anyone, among all the Market Scientists here, post an eld for an indicator that has a high probability of capturing one ES point?

Your use of "market scientists" as a jab seems to indicate to me you might just be trolling. I'll play along for another round and we'll see where this goes.

You could enter at random and if your stops as well as your mind are conditioned right you could maybe catch a point quite often. There is no magic potion, the grail is in your mind and you just need to find what works for you.

It's pretty clear to me we probably have a troll on our hands, what they want is what their parents didn't give them...ATTENTION!

I mean if you can't find .eld's on this site you really didn't try at all.

Re: Best of the Worst

A random entry has a high probability of catching one point as long as you are prepared to risk enough to get it - a 20 point stop should make it a pretty high probability. If you are prepared to do a bit of data mining you could hone in on an entry that has statistical significance. Certain stuff has a tendency to happen at certain times. Stuff happens at previous days highs lows closes mid points. Its not hard to come up with a reasonably robust strategy to catch a point while only risking a similar amount. The first suggestions was the easy option.
