The new trading hours are 8:45- 11:30 ET, except for ZW which starts at 10:30. The reason for the change is things start to slow down a bit earlier than 12:00 and I want to avoid catching a trade in...

I dumped EMD due to lack of volume. I'd be happy to find a replacement in equity indexes, but ES, NQ and YM don't perform well with this system. Maybe TF is the answer? Too bad there isn't a liquid...

Today was the first one in which all trading stopped at 12:00ET and I really enjoyed it. Win, lose or draw at 12:00, the doors are closed and I'm free to do other things. Although I can't prove it,...

Today I ran parallel trades with Limit and +1 for entries and wouldn't you know it, each Limit trade was filled, so there was no benefit to the +1 fills. On the contrary, it turned out to be a tad...

It's been a long day. I don't understand this. If I'm exiting a long isn't sell/ask+1 a one tick limit above the market?

I spent the day watching charts and adjusting the STJMA indicator to improve exits over what's in the current code. I have my work cut out for me.

I've also given more thought to @bluemele...

Currently, I enter at Limit which is the price at the close of the trigger bar. My fill rate is about 65%. As far as exits go, it's market which is anywhere from +1-2 ticks from the close of trigger...

Prior to today, my expectations exceeded the results. Granted, three weeks of testing isn't a large sample. Even considering the flaws in NT's backtester, I was overly optimistic. I'm hopeful the new...

Although this is a small sample, I must say the results thus far have been disappointing. In particular, the amount of trades taken in chop is too high and the missed Limit orders have also...

I inadvertently ran ZS instead of ZW today. A good performance for sure, but I'm still dropping it for ZW.

Yes, that is an option, but it negatively impacts performance since this is primarily a scalping system. I want to buy/sell to open at the close of the trigger bar. If I can't get fill on that bar,...

Long John Silver

6E is in a drawdown that seems to be within the backtest norms. However, if it breaks that threshold I'll seriously consider sending it to the recycle bin.

I continue to be impressed with the...

@blumele, thanks for turning me on to silver. It's a wild animal at $25/tick and looks like it may have merit with this system.
