Tom,
One of my big thrills was to be sandwiched between
Bollinger and Murphy two years ago. They spoke at Denver Market
Technicians Association meetings two months apart. Somehow, they booked me
in between. They are both trading gods. I'm just a trading
dog.
My younger daughter lives in Flower
Mound...so, speaking to the group would
be double fun. I have given about fifteen talks to the DTG
(mostly Mechanical SIG meetings). The Wednesday, before Turkey Day, at
3pm, there was 112 people in the room. I told them I was honored that they
hadn't started their holidaze yet.
Although, you don't get the belly laughs with the
ppt ...at least people can spin the indicators in MS. I do have some
specific rules that pertain to the data. In all Emini contracts, I ignore
all price movement other than: Opening: 9:30 am eastern .... Close 4:15
eastern. I know some people can't think out of the box and will refuse to
adhere to the timeframes that I favor. I can't make people follow what
works for me....but, I encourage you to adjust your timeframes. The
presentation that I forwarded abides by these time frames. I always
execute market orders at the bottom of the hour.
I have gone down the dark road of hanging too many
whistles and bells on a system. The smarter a trader is ... the more
complicated they want to make an approach. Fortunately, I'm not very
bright. Simple systems, that work well in the past, usually continue to
work well in the future. Complicated system usually fail miserably in real
time.
Take care and thanks,
Steve

Thanks Steve.
Good stuff. Now you've given me a bunch
of ideas to check out over the weekend.... But I also have to figure out how
to keep the wife busy with something!
Maybe some day I'll make the trip from Dallas
to Denver and check you guys out.
Do you ever travel outside of Denver to
present?
We have a Tech Analysis Group in Dallas
(about 100) that brings in speakers (expenses paid) once a
month.
We've had most all the biggies (Bollinger,
Nison, Murphy, Raschke, Farley, etc.).
You interested?

Tom,
You'd be surprised....I've had folks fly
from San Francisco and drive from St. Paul....all end up members. I
haven't been to the DTG site for a long time and I forgot that it's password
protected. I would encourage people to start a ski week or weekend a
day early and catch a DTG meeting some Thursday night.
In lieu of coming to Denver, I'm attaching
the October's ppt from the DTG. I can't turn down a polite
request...and, you have shared information and helped a lot of folks.
I do hesitate to just toss this out. Two months from now,
someone will be selling the "six pack" as a 3K trading system (totally
black-boxed).
Do you know why most financial software
hucksters black box a system? Not because the big boyz will steal
it, overtrade it and therefore, ruin it for everyone...no, because they have
swiped other people's stuff and open-code would reveal the source. So,
I encourage people to steal my stuff and improve it. If you steal
and MARKET it, you'll be hearing from me (or my cousin
Guido).
"In the morning you go gunning for the man who
stole your water"
Take care,
Steve

Steve, this is a catch 22.
One can not view the Denver Trading Group
unless he is a member, and you can not become a member unless you attend a
meeting. Kind of hard when you live hundreds or thousands of miles
away.
Would be nice to see your
stuff.

Jose,
the largest trading group in the
world.
Every month, for the last three years, I am
the moderator of the mechanical SIG group (100+, every fourth
Thursday). Each and every month, there is a powerpoint
presentation that is archived at the DTG site. Every month, I
present a mechanical system that I trade "live" in real time. The
Mirus E-Mini track record is just a small part of the overall trading
program (but, it is a system with absolutely no custom indicators and of
course, dozens of people have printed these trades in their
accounts). Also, we advise institutions and brokerage houses
around the globe. You ought to tune into the "live" twenty minute
morning update.
All I'm saying is that nobody has to pay
anything for indicators or trading systems. I give it all away ...
for free. I know that pisses off charlatans and system
hustlers...but so be it. I don't put you in that category
Jose. But, before anyone buys anything, from anybody, they should
investigate what is around .... for free.
BTW, check out all
the promotional goodies that Equis sends out to their prospective
clients (the video). Recognize any of the frontmen/women?
Damn, one of those guys is sure good looking (and I ain't talking about
Oliver or Bob).
Take
care,
Steve

Steve,
"Since these unsolicited,
solicitations keep showing up in my mailbox.
.."
You'd
better direct my mail to your spam box, because I'm unlikely to
stop at this one. The trader's educational market is rife
with scams,
and it is highly unusual to find genuinely useful
material, free or
otherwise.
"First of all, I've been
using MS since 1988 and have developed very
simple approaches to
the market. NOT TOOLS, simple approaches based
on STANDARD
pulldown indicators."
No tools. Good for you.
But
perhaps you are in the wrong usergroup.
"Using the Chande
Momentum Oscillator..."
This could be considered a trading
tool, and so could MetaStock.
" http://www.thedailytrade.com/
"
"Daily Trade subscribers start each day with our Morning Market
Update
and Morning Market Call - indispensable tools that help
investors set
their daily, short, intermediate and long term
market biases."
Oh, so you do use TOOLS...
<:-I
" http://www.mirusfutures.com/cct_log.asp#041130
"
Looks like a tips sheet to me. I guess no trading tools
needed here.
"Nobody is using MetaStock with the stealth
precision that is
practiced by the group of traders we have
gathered."
Pfff... :D
"If you want to
experience a "out-of-body" trading experience....join
us in our
hotcomm room: Teach Talk Trade."
Thanks, but I'd prefer
to keep my feet firmly on the ground for now.
