Hi Beth, Metal is correct the VLC player is really a great player, fast and a lot of features and it plays mp4-so I do not have to use a MAC or QT. It works well, I have used it for a while now, and it only gets better. Thanks, Metal of getting that answered for Beth.-Mark

It's http://eminiaddict.com, someone had posted addicts
You can watch all of the free analysis vids straight from the site.
He uses fibs, pivots and nyse-tick to trade the ES and 6E.
As someone already mentioned, it's cheap to subscribe and there is an intraday webinar in which he discusses market action live, but it's not a trade call room - more of a teaching classroom. Good place to learn a simple disciplined approach to trading based on price action. I used it for a couple of months when he first started the room and it was positive for my development.

It's an extremely busy/fruitful Fib week. I read a few manuals and watched some webinars. Actually I located Fat Tails' webinar last night and really enjoy it (half way through). Thanks Fat Tails.
Remember I memorized the 5 Fundamental Truths and 9 Principles of Consistency. They're in my system now .. smile .. What are my edges? I realize the most important one is not the win % or the system and rather your support/guidance since I started the venture. I have been getting unexpected nice surprises offering me tips and best wishes all the time. I want you to know that I really appreciate your Giant Lift to enlighten/liven me up. Big Big Thank You for standing by me days and nights.
Am a little under the weather and have a pair of piggie lips this morning (maybe allergic .. sigh ..). Will take things easy this weekend before an exciting week ahead.
My trillion thanks MetalTrade for your prompt suggestion. Just downloaded it and it's playing the video now .. hooray! Yes, weekend is for doing more "fun" things. I am going to do some system/template backup + more zozozo.
Oh, did I mention my semi-evening owl life? Quite often I woke up once between 2:00 am and 4:00 am. For the past week, I chose not to resume zozo and rather watched the market for an hour or so. Big mistake as I became a zombie and got a cold etc etc .. I feel for my stomach because it has been hurting and papaya enzyme did not help anymore .. Well, I promise UKNOWHO that I will be a "good" girl from now onwards .. oooo. To cheer him up (as I had not paid him too much attention for the whole week), I bought his favorite ice-cream bars when we did our weekend shopping yesterday .. haha ..
Have a Nice weekend/Great week ahead everyone.
Beth

I am not 100% certain on your set-up question. I try to answer though I am unable to disclose the exact details because it's a commercial system:
Set-up
~ Buy or sell based on retracement/pullback after a Swing Hi/Low
~ 2 MAs to determine short and medium trends
~ 1 momentum osc to confirm Overbought/Oversold
~ Divergence on price and momentum osc
I am a very conservative trader and have been focusing on the first one or two retracement opportunities with divergence (excl the ones between the 2 MAs unless there's enough room to reach my Profit Target 6). When there are minimal divergence signals meeting my rules, I started learing Fib (mostly 50%/61.80% retracement) to identify earlier entry = lower risk and faster exit. I also like Ergodic (using it for almost a month) esp when its crossover aligns with a signal.
Hope the above helps.
Beth (I've been taking wrong drugs (painkiller) for my piggy lips .. sigh .. I forgot about the allergy ones which I used for giant bites itchy itchy. I do not have pain on my lips and rather itchy/swelling. How stupid was I? Now finally not too itchy. )
I went to see my doctor because half of my face is infected (on "fire") .. sigh .. It's likely triggered by my high-sensitivity stress profile. Will take a break from watching the market like a hawk. Instead, I will focus on enhancing my set-up .. how to identify an early entry and boost up the reward/risk ratio to 2:1.
What a coincidence that a friend just shared the following link with me:
Feel better soon Beth. The market will always be here.

Due to time constraints, please do not PM me if your question can be resolved or answered on the forum.
Need help? 1) Stop changing things. No new indicators, charts, or methods. Be consistent with what is in front of you first. 2) Start a journal and post to it daily with the trades you made to show your strengths and weaknesses. 3) Set goals for yourself to reach daily. Make them about how you trade, not how much money you make. 4) Accept responsibility for your actions. Stop looking elsewhere to explain away poor performance. 5) Where to start as a trader? Watch this webinar and read this thread for hundreds of questions and answers. 6) Help using the forum? Watch this video to learn general tips on using the site.
