Chet,
This is realy good stuff.. I have been pooring over the charts and have noticed a few good indicators along with the macd cross.
When the VAR 6 chart has two or 3 long flat tops with short flat bottoms "no spikes" near a macd swing up you get a nice pop.
If it is near the bottom BOL 40 and the CV 10 is moving up, you have a full blown brake out.
No way to tell how many fail in this set up....I looked at 50 or so random charts and havent found one yet.
Thanks,
Eman

Another late night hitting the charts....
It looks to be OK if the VAR 6 has points on the low end, just not on the high end. two or more flat tops I am finding is a stronger setup.
Want the MACD 12,24,9 to be flating out or heading up, not full speed down hill....
What do you think of NAT? the MACD is steep...
A few others to ponder.......
TXT AMB TD CYT
The CV 10 is low on all of these...I dont think they will run much (if any), a day or two max.

What is the reason you are looking at indicators when you should be looking at PRICE?

Chet,
Tro is right, look at the price action you wouldn't need indicators. Look at WFT, CHK, POT and many other energy stocks today, they have the same price pattern....good luck.. gotta go make money (O:

Being very new to the game...I understand the concept of price action but at this point I can not look at price action alone and chose the stocks with a high prob of a reversal or will continue to move up, without looking at the indicators for some level of conformation...I hope to get to that level some day but i am not there.
I made my first trade in May of this year.....I work a full time job and can only devote a few hours a night trying to pick the right stocks. I can't truly day trade the way i would like TRO style. I am trying to find stocks with a high prob of running at least 2 to 5 days.
I cant sell short, no option trading and cant truly day trade...I am fighting with two arms and a leg tied behind my back.
This crap of entering orders the night before is like flipping a coin... I am trying to find an edge somewhere....
Watching John work his magic is giving me hope it can be done...
What I have read about the TRO style, one stock, (know it trade it) is in my opinion the best way to do it...as they say timing is everything, and you need your finger on the button at that point in time.
I am not able to trade this way due to my job…I am not ready to quit said job and try to make living on trading stocks…..
The one lesson in life I have learned is " if you want to be successful, then do it the way successful people do it, understand the logic and the hard work that it takes and be committed"
I will never swing a golf club like Tiger, but I understand his system and learn from it.

1-4 of TRO's RFR stocks + Price-Action + just a single indicator (CCI, Aroon, RSI or W%R) has made the biggest difference in my trading success.
I'm too impatient to trade just 1 stock, I usually watch the top 4 RFR stocks daily and wait for just the right entries on any of those. But I agree, more than that many stocks and it's too much to keep track of. I also watch various time frames so I don't trade against a larger trend.

What is the "biggest difference"?
Don't be fooled by looking at different time frames. Price is the same on all time frames.
