"I have a chart for you to look at, but me and technology don't go hand in hand well, I use pro real time, how do I send my screen shot??????"
You can always press you Print Screen button on your keyboard.
Open up the microsift Paint programe , , new, paste. cut the image you want , as it will capture all your desktop view, file, save as, png. thats a good one, retains image quality..

Or you could just press PRINT-SCREEN on your keyboard, paste it into Paint and cut the part of you wish to show... that's usually how I do it
no fancy soft

I'm trying out the new ProRealTime chart setup and entered a (paper) short on the 3min chart at 18.07, based on stochs, macd crossover, cci falling and the sharp break of the lower trendline. Exited for +21 as I'm aiming for a safe 20 pts/day. Could have had another 20+ by now, but there we are! Dropping away nicely now.

quite choppy today on DAX... not done much trading lately
volume relatively low on most indices (FTSE in particular I think), but still some decent moves around imho (from time to time)

instead of just posting long & short here, it might be more useful to have a small analysis + reason why to enter a trade added later on (not always possible straight away if you want to make a live post of your trade), so here goes:
"obvious" level to return to after breaking resistance around 14000'ish
first pullback normally worth buying, although I would have prefered a move to 14030, then 14000 and then 14060 and climbing higher instead of running away so strong at the open
but anyhow a long it is and we'll see how it goes

So you have identied a filter for your system. Do not take trades that go against the trend and if I read your posts correctly you have defined trend by a MA line, am I correct?
It that's so, you have something solid to test but as you re-defined your setup you need to restart from the beginning with a testing period.
About the chart you posted, I'm bit surprised as to why you would wait so long to take an entry. There's a pretty clear long signal about 150 points lower then your entry. Have a look at my annotations.

Steve, sweet as a nut, excellent entry, based on the set up you used, you couldn't have asked for a more clear cut entry, well done. my only observation, whey close the position when the DEMA is still trading below the MA, I would have been looking to close on A) stochastic set up that is looking to change or B) a cross of the DEMA/MA.
20 points well done, that is my daily target, anything else is extra, often and regular rather than the one big bang.
Firewalker, I really like the DAX, one of my favoured Indices, it has been choppy, but I got my entry right (I hope) up some +50 at the min with (+30) locked in.
I have a line on my DAX 3&4 hour charts at 8110, which has only been breached by candletick extension 5 times since 22 May 07 offering a good line of resistance, I am watching this very closely, if it holds and breaks down, this is were we may start from imho.
Whats your thoughts?

Hi guys,
Only the DAX30 looks like a potential short to me with the price about to dip below the MA34...
On the DOW, I'm not sure if this is resistance or consolidation support at these new levels. If they hold I think another surge is likely to be on the way towards the end of the week.
The markets are scary imo. I reckon shorting cable or the DAX might just be better safer option than the DOW at the moment. But I'll do neither as I have to go out again.
I'm still staying flat as even the 1 hour charts on the DOW are threatening an upward move.
Tomorrow's BoE meeting mins should be interesting. The markets are simply very fascinating to watch at the moment. I'm 50/50 as to direction.
Good trading everyone...

exit at 14039 = +37 (first half)
this was imho a very clean clear pure price-based trade... nothing else... not even volume came into the equation
I hope I'm not the only one who spotted it
Hi FW,
that's exactly the method I was using !!...
fairly basic stuff but suprising how profitable it can be....especially considering where we are at highs in the market,you can control your risk effectively.....After all "It's not what you make,it's what you keep.."
cheers
