Thanks a lot for the hint, I will look into it, I also would like to wait for the NT 8 version, maybe they will implement it.

Ray will be doing a technical "one-on-one" webinar soon, I say one-on-one but what I am trying to say is the focus of the webinar will be to answer questions. I'm sure NT 8 will come up, like it did a lot in the last webinar. But based on his responses from the previous webinar, I would put the date a couple years away... you might be waiting a long time...

Mike

CL long 5 contracts, target not defined +979$. In this case the target was set by the ATM Strat and I didn't touch it as I let the trade run alone as I was busy fixing the automated door of my garage. My natural target would have been below the vwap, I accidentally gained 15 ticks, LOL. It was the last trade of the day.

No posts from yesterday and today, I was busy and could not trade. Besides volatility is rising again, important news and market nervousness are not good indicators,like mentioned before my trades in the coming days will be very selective.

Everybody enjoys the weekend

Quite a Journal and quite a nice application of a contrarian method.

A bit too scary for me to try ( a bit to close to martingale approach for me at times) but very impressive and a nice demonstration

thx
