5/19/2017 11:50:01 AM @PT Exits I'm still working on, I need to stay in the profitable trades longer. I do like to take half off after I get the move I want. And it depends on the trade really. If it is a pullback on a up trend then I'll let it go a little longer until I start to see the CCI over bought, think wind at your back. If it is a reversion trade or in a down trend, I'll put a long on and usually take profits when it gets to back to the lower BB40 ala JP uses. I'll only take a reversion trade if price is trading far from the low BB. If it is too close you won't get much of a run. I'm watching /PA right now. Up trend, CCI below -100, BB40 going up. If we get a swing their might be room to the upside. If I was smart enough on how to post a pic I would. I'm also watching /NG thought I would like to see it pull back on the CCI more. I'm good at getting in on turning points but not mid trend pull backs. I need to work on that to which is what /NG feels like. |

5/19/2017 12:17:35 PM gmg, it sounds like your exits are fine. I just asked because last nights trade with valeant (VRX) is a great example of my frustration at times. I got in at 13.53 last night and exited in pre market at 13.80. well it went down this morning to 13.30. I got out because of something Kevin from GA said once...'take profits when you have them'. I dont do well with consolidation. that is why i asked. |

It was a counter trade and that's how you trade them, now you move on and don't look back in your rearview mirror. |

5/19/2017 1:26:02 PM Exactly, I could be crying over /CL higher today buy I made good bank on the trade I did. But I learn not to look back. Look for the next trade. I'll make more money on a new trade than I would holding that trade. That is usually my experience at least. |

5/20/2017 8:58:39 PM great find Four. can i ask what the logic in the code was ? not asking for a filter per se but this one seems to have consistent support and resistance levels, hitting multiple times in short time frames. good trading stock. |

5/20/2017 10:14:25 PM 215, No filter. It showed up when I ran "a filter" and noticed when I was scanning results. :) |

5/20/2017 11:03:20 PM four, the last time you posted something this good (carnival), I made some money so I probably owe you a finders fee :) thanks again. |
