Walter`s "5 min Laddering" trade

Recommended Posts

Walter,

I wish I knew where you had all this energy to create some of these posts. This is the kind of stuff that makes TL an attractive forum to people - your threads are always worth viewing, I think the Candlestick Corner is a nice little spot and even Dogpile has some good stuff going now!!!

 

With all this good stuff on here, the question won't be is it worth visiting TL, the question is where is your time best spent!

 

;)

 

Thanks Brown for this encouragment ¡¡...

 

I am also greatfull for all your great professional inputs man ¡¡

 

I am following you on this help effort, I know when time pass we and our gang will donate 7 figures... thats what I expect on all this... cheers Walter.

Let me start here doing some comentaries about Negative Laddering...

 

Some definitions on this graph :

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=3029&stc=1&d=1190314002

 

So you can see we have trendwise and countertrend ladderings... so far we presented the trendwise ladderings...

 

Now, the countertrend ladderings are more interesting after a big move (exhaustion)... it doesnt mean it has to work... but it can give you more confidence...

 

Let me show an example here...

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=3030&stc=1&d=1190314425

 

in this case we had a nice decent move to the upside... market gets exhausted on a pause HE and then he starts a Negative Laddering... inside that laddering we have a nice Icon to trade...

 

Here we see the timing of the trade :

Thats how a Negative laddering can be traded... its offcourse more agresive than the trendwise ones.... cheers Walter.

Negative laddering...I like it. This should double the number of opportunities for entry :)

Now I'm still not sure I understand the "20 bucks per week/contract"

What are your thoughts on that...? Thanks...Armand

the interesting thing was that timing actually hapened as black was about to also cross above the magenta line (5 min) for an uptrend basic definition... cheers Walter.

Thanks Walter. I like this 5 min laddering method. Just to clarify...you are using the fantailvma1 on the 5 min and the fantailvma3 on the 1 min? I am still trying to determine the best times to watch the AUDUSD market. I know the US market time is good 9:30am EST - 4:30pm...Are there other good times for this? Thanks...Armand

 

Yes Armand... thats my indicators settings at this point...

 

About times of day, London open until US close is the most liquid time, anyway this method works just about any time of the day... would not recomend taking trades late friday... cheers Walter.

 

 

About interesting times to trade the AUD/USD, the opening of Australian sesssion offers interesting moves as well.... having a directional bias with vma makes it a nice possible clean trade... we will see how the future vma4 could have some roll on this type of trading.... cheers Walter.

I'm wondering about the possibility of programming alerts in MT4. It seems like it would come in handy whenever the black line (5 min) or the yellow line (1 min) pops up out of the rainbow. Does this seem possible? Armand

Should be possible, more a question of how, a practical way.

Good idea Armand.

So... if I told you I am fulling arround with some inputs on the vma that could give some even "cleaner" laddering effects.... what would you tell me ?...

 

could this actually have any real good impact on laddering trades ?...

 

let me share this chart

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=3124&stc=1&d=1190838577

 

thats a 5 min chart with fantailvma1 template... plus

 

you can notice a cyan and white lines... the white one is a vma1 inputs 1-16-32-0-1 and the cyan is a sma 5 of vma1... mmm it calls my atention the realation between this two lines and how clean direction they give... it is the preamble of my scalping research with vma`s.... cheers Walter.

Thanks for interesting thread. I looked on your other threads for a metatrader template or indicator and can't find it. Is there a link somewhere please?

 

BoneChair

 

Walter's away for a while, so I'll answer it on his behalf, it was probably posted on the " Playing with the VMAR`s open research" thread, but I'm not 100%.

 

But to save you the time, here's the template for you to download.

 

Cheers

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful.
