Just starting out my journal for Nov 1.. seems like a better place to start than any..
I basically follow the rules/system that perryg has outlined, but i use a couple other tools so i call it 'reloaded'. i am also constantly testing other things to see if i can see the market more clearly.. since its my personality, this thread might become all over the place so im going to have all the current files that i use(templates and such) right here on the first post.
some things i do differently:
-i use two stoch indies to show me pullbacks and then follow through as well as for when i place a counter trend trade.
-i have added another HTF visual SMA to the chart: 12, 16, and the 24.
here you can see these additions both in action. the 24 HTF SMA is still heading down sharply while the 12/16 HTF SMAs are floundering about. you can see the distance between the slow and fast stochs showing its going to snap back down.
