Back to trading

Hi all

Firstly its nice to be back on the forum after a break - move of house and baby over the last 4 years.

I am still trading and after 15 years of trial and error i am happy to say the profits out weigh the losses.

I think i have tried every thing from simple to comlex and every formula and platform. I have now settled over the last 2 years on 2 platforms ig index and financial spreads.

After every formula testing - i have gone back to Camarilla that i was kindly sent a free calculation form way back in 2002 and after severl different alternatives i have to say it workd peobably better than most

I trade 5 days a week on the FTSE and DOW and try and take between 15 and 20 points on the FTSE a day.

Well i guess i want to hear from anyone else using the camarilla or any updates or improvements i have missed.
Also i am finding the close formula a little inaccurate. When i traded a few years ago most platforms closed the FTSE at 4.30 so it was easy to use that price in the formula, now IG and Financial SPreads are open 24 hours - i am a little confused what FTSE close price to use in the equation

Looking forward to hearing from you guys

Happy Trading

What is Camarilla it sounds nasty can it be treated with antibiotics?

Hey Deena,

Just had a quick glance so this might be a blonde question, but what's the difference between Camarilla and normal pivot points btw ?

Good trading

All sounds a bit complex, or am I being dense?

meanreversion, its just another form of pivot point calculations.

Deena, welcome to t2w,

I would use the actual open/close for my calculations so 8am and 4:30 respectfully. If your using them in the traditional methods you will have to decide how your gonna play it when the futures gap and bounce to a level as the gap wont be reflected on your ig charts.

Glad to hear your in profit keep it up.

Vaco, would you be horribly offended if I pointed out that you typed "your" twice there when you meant "you're", as short for "you are"?

The whole your/you're thing is a pet peeve of mine, I know there are others out there who feel the same. I'm really not trying to be rude .. !

I'm not as angry as this guy, for example..

Oh and BTW has anyone mentioned:
If you're not going to write it properly and you're not going to get a dictionary and you're not going to bother learning how to spell and you're too lazy to care, then write it "YOU ARE"!

Not at all offended, wrote it in a hurry and didn't check. I only hope that the message was not lost in all that poor grammar.:-0
