A classic five men and an elephant comment
suggesting the existence of the holy grail. Proper execution of
either S&R or momentum or in combination with good money management
will produce equivalent results for either mechanical or discretionary
trading. Improper execution also produces equivalent results at the other
end of the spectrum. There is no single road that is right for
all traders in all time frames with temperaments that range from hyper to
comatose and risk tolerance that is all over the map. The right road is
very trader specific and definitely not a simplistic one size fits all
situation.

Momentum formula
Anthony,
Do yourself a big favor. Don't waste
your precious time on this earth with this kind of drivel.
Chasing price with momentum indicators is not going to get you where you
want to be.
Coming up with a support/resistance system is all you need
to make whatever you want from the markets.
I've seen hundreds of
traders get wiped out trying to go on the path you're following and all of
the successful traders I've been around in the e-mini futures have used
S/R as the foundation of their trading methodology.
And, above all,
embrace your emotions in trading because they teach you what you should
and shouldn't do going forward. Computers learn nothing while you
learn from every win and loss you make.
Finding an edge in trading is
easy. It's only hard if you're using a computer to find a needle in
a haystack because you didn't make a good enough investment in real-time
observations of the markets while researching an edge you'd like to
trade.. That makes all the difference in the world for knowing
what works and what doesn't.
You'll come up with 10 edges to trade if
you put the time in to experience a live market on a regular basis without
trying so hard. It will bring out your imagination and creativity to
find what you're looking for.
I wish someone had told
me that 4.5 years ago when I started trading the ER2 e-mini. It
would have saved me a lot of time chasing nonsense.
