The payoff is at the end. Sorry you have to sit through the beginning.

I was watching this EOTPRO.COM video on youtube. Its an interesting concept, but only had 430 views. Then I noticed this one, “How to make $785 in less than 20 minutes - stock trading,” had well over 9000 views. Finally, there is this video that is light in content, but has a girl with a nice body, dressed in a sexy outfit. It won the battle with over 10,000 views.

Knowing the readership of MtM, they will skip right over the EOTPRO video, and check out the girl.

So, I mostly have a 60 minute rolling market profile going….

… I need to get the font to fixed-width, so that each letter takes up the same amount of space. I need to double check a few things. It wasn’t very hard to get this far. I just took the market profile code from the TS forums, and modified it so that it thinks it’s a new day every 60 minutes or so. Now comes the hard part: figuring out if it’s even useful to have. I’m not a market profile expert by any means.

I’ve made a wordpress plugin so that all posts with youtube videos will have a link directly to youtube at the bottom of the post. The reason is, my iPhone won’t display the embedded videos, but it does have a youtube application that will activate if you click on a youtube link. So, now iPhone users can watch the videos on the site from their phones, and everyone else has an extra link to ignore. If you are too lazy to look at a previous post to see what I mean, here is some footage of a kick-ass version of Red House from the Isle of Wight. Strange that he’s wearing the exact same outfit I like to trade in.

There is really only one advantage that the TDI has over the ADX, and its visual. There may be a way to do the same thing with the ADX, but this was easier.

3 Trades for 3 wins today. I traded the first hour, and took a stab at an afternoon trade just for laughs. +5pts per contract. I traded 987 share bars today, as 1597 was feeling too slow.

In this video I also talk about one of my typical stock plays, and how it’s a different world from index futures trading.

I don’t know if I’ll even turn on my platform Monday, since I expect volume to be pathetic… but knowing me I probably will.

This is interesting. Go get some Lemon-Aid if you use the Trade Station platform.

I watched the markets for the first 2 hours and made one trade today. A 1pt per contract win in ES. The video shows that there were two valid setups for me later in the day, both of which would have been easy winners as well. Not bad!

I was happy to see that volume was a little better today than yesterday. Maybe if we have a strong start tomorrow, I’ll stick around for longer. Incidentally, tomorrow is eotpro.com’s open house for their live room. If you are curious, go check them out!

Here is the way my charts look lately, with the one trade I took this morning. +2.75 pts. This chart is built around a primary setup, and the rules for this setup are pretty simple. First, price needs to be near (1) the yellow dots (2) the dashed yellow line and (3) the CMA. Second, the beads and paintbars need to agree with the price. Third, there needs to be a current or very recent PattyB entry signal. Looking over some recent data makes this setup look promising, and whenever I get a chance I will backtest over months of data to be more sure that it “works.”

Exits are managed like I’ve been managing all my trades lately. Combination of trailing stops and “magenta” fib extensions (you can see the fib extensions getting me out of this trade, as they are the red clover-shaped dots in the panel just under price action).

12_24 trade

Notice that I’ve modified and cut down on the number of beads I’m looking at. I had mentioned in a recent video that I was planning on evaluating everything and getting down to just the essentials. I think I’m closer now. Although the top line of beads represents the eotpro GVolume Oscillator, I have added the actual oscillator back on top of the PattyB as well. It’s such an important indicator that I’ve decided I want all the nuances of it available to me, should I want it.

Sorry, no video today… I’m out of town and without my headset (again!).

I’m not sure I’ll be able to trade Wednesday, but I’ll definitely be around Thursday and Friday.

over in Hailey Idaho where in my parents valley they still use cans with string to communicate.

Thus I will be in and about off and on between skiing and snowmobiling.

Cheers to all, may your plans be defined, and all that you ask for is yours,
E.

(I’ll be back on the 7th of next year)

*poof*
