  2. I was listeningt o one of the videos from John Carter recently and he was also saying that in this volatile market you have to get in before the squeeze fires off because if you wait the signal is too late and the move has been made.
  3. They are going to blow it up and start all over again!
  4. Personality, to me its all about personality. I started out in the equities market and slowly moved to equity options. I still trade both of these but I found the ES and YM fit my personality. I like the quick moves and the fast entries and exits. They just fit my personality
  5. Here is a link to the free squeeze indicator you are looking for. I have not tested it out before so I do not know the results. If you do try it please let me know what you think of it. http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/f46/bb-squeeze-replica-for-tradestation-662.html
  6. This pic was sent to me by a friend and it seems to me that any trader can relate to this, but we try anyway!
  7. Thanks for the link, I will take a look at it.
  8. Thanks, I will give it a shot. Have a great day
  9. Fact - A hiigh number of new traders loose money! Fact - Many of those traders are under capitalized and uneducated without ever putting in the time and work to become successful. Fact - Most new traders are not willing to apply the blood, sweat and tears required to become successful in this profession. They may start out strong for a few days, weeks, etc but when they dont see any immediate results they move on or wash out. If you go back to "Think & Grow Rich", most people stop 3' short of their dreams. For some the last 3' is too much to take.
  10. Pretty cool looking site, Thanks
  11. I have been testing this indicator and I want to make a change but I am challanged when it comes to programing. Could you make an adjustment to this for a straight 10 & 20 EMA instead of the jtHMA. BTW I like the addition of the BB to the indicator. Thanks
  12. For me it would be more Greed. Well come to think of it I dont know if you can call it Greed, it is more of being anxious to trade whan there are no clear signals. Well maybe it is Greed, oh heck I know I am a bag full of emotions and there are times that they sneek out and get in the way of my financial plan!
  13. Glad to hear that it will help, let me know how it goes.
  14. You hit the nail on the head Brownsfan019. The sad part is he knows better, he trades equity options successfully so I believe he got caught up in his success in that market. Kinda like a baseball team in first place playing the last place team and loosing to them. They figured they were better than the last place team so they didnt really have to try.
  15. 89 is a standard number in a fib sequence. Bump: Thanks Kiwi I didnt see your post when I had answered. OAC here is the sequence that gives us 89 tick. 0+1=1 1+1=2 1+2=3 2+3=5 3+5=8 5+8=13 8+13=21 13+21=34 21+34=55 34+55=89 etc Happy Trading
  16. I like tradestation for charts and data and Infinity for execution.
