Thumbs up Drummond Geometry

Hi All,

I have started this thread to discuss more about Drummond Geometry trading style.

I have been using this method for the last year and I must say it is very logical way of trading.

I will post some articles by Ted Hearne to start of.

It would be good to get more P&L traders to join this thread.

Regards

Simon

Re: Drummond Geometry

Simon - I hope the thread can get off the ground for you as I've often heard about Drummon, but never got into it myself. A good trader friend of mine attempted to learn it, but he felt is was not working for him. My understanding is that it takes quite a while to learn, so I'm sure that turns some people off.

Re: Drummond Geometry

Hi Brownsfan,

I must admit it is hard to learn at first, I only started to grasp the main principles after I went over the 1-5 lessons the second time. The PLDot push and refresh principle is just great especially when you use it using multiple time frames just gold.

The PL dot is nothing more than a 3 day moving average of High,Low and Close moved forward in time by one bar.

Re: Drummond Geometry

I will do my best to chip in here. I don't trade P&L per se however any instrument that I do trade I have a P&L workspace set up for it.

One of the issues with P&L is the NDA. Whilst I am pretty sure it's un enforceable I do respect the sentiment behind it. Having said that, certain things clearly fall outside as they are in the public domain anyway (11's are floor pivots for example). Other things I feel it's OK to speak about in a broad context.

I have made a few posts here in the past about Drummond if you are interested.

Cheers.

Re: Drummond Geometry

Hi all,

I am a newby to this forum (nice site by the way !) but I am an experienced trader,and have used Drummond's work for quite a while. I find it logical and usually very reliable. I have signed their non-disclosure and respect it but I think I can probably answer a lot of questions without revealing things that they want me to hold close to the chest. Let me know if I can help.

Indeed! Having said that there is such a huge amount of information it is easy to get confused! When you buy the course you are essentially getting Drummonds lifes work.

One of the most valuable things (imho) is the treatment of multiple timeframes (particularly in respect to types of trading).

It is a comprehensive piece of work that rewards study (in my case it took many thousands of hours to really 'get' it). But as you rightly say you can take one idea or concept and trade it successfully. Recognising this requires some maturity as a trader however. I like some of the basic geometry too, 11's & 5x's are very traceable, especially if they line up right with the envelope and pldot.
