I think he's using multiple time frame tick charts, heikinashi bars to all turn the same color, waits for 144tk to cross or bounce off of 20ma. 10 tick stop loss and initial 10 tick target that can be adjusted according to how it's trending. If the bigger time frame doesn't change he likely adjusts his target further away. I don't believe he trades the hours that are too unpredictable (such as NY open at 9:30 AM EST) That's my best guess after sifting through his posts.

I got the vibe he doesn't care to share his method. I think this is sort of having 50/50 chance with a likely hood of catching the bigger trend (which is probably the edge). I do think he adjusts his stops as well, just don't know exactly what he looks at. (guessing the 20ma cross in the bollinger bands).

If I am right, this seems more focused at low to moderate volume hours rather than the high volume hours.

Alright, I don't know who else is thinking it but I'm calling it - I think this is bs.

Hallelujah!

Even though Opstar has a good explanation for OP's strategy, it's likely to be a fruit of our pattern-seeking brain more than anything else.
What doesn't compute is why Porter would go to all this trouble, he's not selling anything. I guess some men just want to watch the world burn.

Maybe people are PMing him and he is selling through there?

It will be very-very hard for you to understand a guy like Porter, as many said before it is better for you to find some other thread here, because clearly it is not for you.

Porter: keep up the good work, I see you moved to Sweitzeland, how come?

Thanks Mate!

I am glad that you are here again.
I moved to here a month ago. The environment here is more beautiful, this place better to live than London.
I love to hike, walk in the mountains, this all are here. It was on Sunday Wikiloc - Eigenthal trail - Eigenthal, Kanton Luzern (Swiss Confederation)- GPS track
