I have live data when I am at home, unfortunately I cannot access whilst at work. I have only found real-time charts on the CBOT website. These are good but I cannot determine the exact high and low values. Does anyone know of somewhere that I can get the high and low values needed to drive...

Dumb Q. What is the ticker symbol for Eurostoxx 50? I am trying to load a chart at www.bigcharts.com and can't seem to find it! Ta, Gizmo

Cheers FC. You have posted loads of interesting ideas which I am reading through. Do you use any of these for real following live forward testing? Gizmo

FC are you entering at the market close using the SB firm's futures price. My reading of these idea is you would ideally go long at 16:31 on the FTSE, 21:01 on the DOW. Is this correct? I also guess you add the 2pt SB spread onto the ADR to trigger a reversal? Thanks, Gizmo

Looks very interesting FC. May I ask why you have chosen 22 days to determine the average range? Also any chance you can post the FTSE & NIkkei spreadsheets please....... Gizmo

Tony, let me echo what the others are saying. I am new to this game and admire your honest posting each day. You will soon be back in top form. I only read but do find what you and all of the other's post extremely helpful. All the best for 2005. Gizmo

Hi, Has anybody used / is using the Tipstracker product recently launched by Updata? Thanks, Gizmo

As a new trader this strategy has proved invaluable - thank you Chartman & Newtron. I seem to be struggling a bit with the 1m timeframe at the moment. This I believe is because at the moment I am not synthesising the data quickly / thoroughly enough, which leads to poor trades. Then once I am...

Drat I have also been looking for patterns with big swings, sometimes ignoring the pivots in between :frown: If anyone can shed any light on how P4 comes into play I would certainly appreciate it. Many thanks, Gizmo

Many thanks trendie. Now to try and turn my paper efforts with this into real +ive trades. gizmo

Hi CC, I am a member of TT but cannot find the pdf you refer to? Do you have a direct link to it please. Gizmo

trendie, You will be better off using the YM (DOW futures) . This is because the SB companies derive their prices from the futures market price not cash. This may explain the difference. Not sure exactly how D4F do it, but CapitalSpreads cash price tends to stay a set distance from the futures...

cj - I for one am finding this really helpful. I look forward to any further updates you are prepared to share. Thankyou. Q. Does P2 always have to be lower than P1 and P3. Example - daily YM Late Sept low 9965 Early Oct high 10270 Y'day low 9870 Here the pullback is > 100% of the P1 to P2...

Thanks MGB. Just had a look on the 60min YM chart and with your response this has certainly helped me see a very different pattern! P1 10045 P2 9950 P3 10000 Entry 9976 with target of 9905. Gizmo

Hi all, Excellent thread - thankyou for sharing this with us cj12, looks very interesting. I have been looking at setups and think I see a potential on the daily YM. I don't have exact pivot prices to hand. P1 9780 = double bottom early Aug P2 10360 = double top early Sept P3 9950 yesterday...
