Sure Tim,

Tillson's indicators are responsible for all the daytrades that I take and recommend.  Attached is the public posting of these trades (just for the last two weeks...I was "luckier" prior to these two weeks).  It is not "mechanical".  It is simply defining support and resistance with the T3's and then "drawing a line in the sand" (picking a price for a limit order). 

After identifying the usual suspects (I have my favorites), I look at a chart of: High - T3 and decide what the target is (by measuring the typical spread of a closing T3 and the high of the day).  A wildly subjective exercise.  Just goes to show:  I can swing from both sides of the plate (mechanical vs. subjective).  

For the last year, I have run a chat room where every trade is public.  My CMO3 system has clocked in access of 75% win/loss and this is with an 11 point stop in the ES's (Yuki....a $550 stop which is hit once in a blue moon).  It's an open-coded approach that many people are trading in tandem, in the room, everyday (and have been for a year).  It has produced an average of a trade a day ....with an average a little over three hours in duration.

Last week, I gave my monthly two-hour presentation to the Denver Trading Group.  The eighty members were given my "six-pack" of hourly mechanical trading systems.  No mysteries, no bullshit.  Simple stuff. These six mechanical approaches that have performed with tremendous regularity.  They all work well, with stops, and will continue to work well....PROVIDED that volatility continues to wallow at these low levels.

When volatility changes it's nature, we will change our emphasis from momentum oscillator systems to trend following approaches.  I hope this didn't sound too canned.  I copied the entire message from somewhere and pretended that it was my own writings.

Take care,

Steve
