To start the Year of the Rabbit, interesting things happened .. smile ..
1. Power outrage after the winterstorm. We finally got a rehearsal on the back-up battery. It gave me enough time to shut down the trading station. If I was in a trade, I would be able to exit .. great news!
2. I accidentally entered into a real CL counter-trend trade. With Ergodic on my side, I stayed a little and made +3. Really scary
as I thought I was on sim when I placed the trade .. then noticed it's live. Racing heart and shaking fingers even after exit. Too unexpected. I must add that I was a little distracted when we heated up a vegetarian curry dish to celebrate the new year.
3. Having read more on Ergodic, I have a faster one (Panel 3) this morning for comparison. I like it so far though too early to decide.
For the afternoon, I plan to go through more historical data to see how the slower/faster Ergodic indies differ/perform.
Continue enjoying your day (first day of the Rabbit Year)!

Beth,
divergence ones) with Ergodic as filter, ie both Signal/Main lines are heading the same direction else pass. Seemed this filter may increase the win rate of regular ones as well. Need more monitoring and/or with historical data to back this up.

I am glad that I can take a break now .. no more Ergodic research for a while. You may wonder if I will spend more time on studying the Ergodic system. Luckily not .. I only want to have it as an additional filter for the current set-up. It's a profitable system (75-80% was mentioned in the thread I vaguely remember) yet it's quite sophisticated .. with 3 volume charts for Trending, Direction and Entry + detailedly laid out rules.

Forums - ProfLogic's Method
Note:
1. System rules on page 10
2. Ninja indicator (version 6.5) on page 211
Oh, have not tried the indicator yet.
Now you know what I did for the past 6 hours .. now sleepy eyes zozozo ..

as soon I you mention ergodic I think of that thread but then it has a diff take on chart (using volume bar with huge interval = long waiting time) that I think it may conflict with what you are doing.
Support/Resistance . I don't know how am I going to incorporate the new knowledge into my scalping set-up yet. It's on my non-trading activity list for more investigation/assessment .. haha ..
