Hi Mike,

Actually Mike, the only thing that separates us is the markets that we trade in an the risks that one is willing to take an how much money we want to work with. I like to put little money in for high returns, you like to put in big money for a return.

As far as risk management, we are actually doing the same, we just call it something different an go about it in different ways.

Now as far as T/As go. I like to keep it simple.;-))))))))) Other then Price an Vol., I use these indicators:

Price momentum line
Alerts w/RSI w/%
MACD
ADX/ADR
Stockastics (weighted)
Money flow index

I find these best tell the story of what is going on. I have removed the standard perameters an put my own in to suite the markets mood. The more volatile, the shorter the time frames. I DON'T SHORT STOCK BECAUSE THERE IS NO NEED TO WHEN YOU CHANGE THE PERAMETERS.;-))))))))))))) The program will tell you when to get out or get in. It's all about how you read it an how you have it set up. My program gives me that ability.;-))))) That is why I love it so much. I am the analyst. Not my broker or any house.

As far as the ones that are the least useful, I find candle sticks to be really a repeat of the price indicator. In the markets today, I find the 50, 100 an 200 day moving averages corrupted. An last but not least, the upgrade or down grades by the so called pros..;-)))))

Now I would like to remind you that I do trade Chips from time to time when I can afford them.;-))))))))

So Mike, I hope this has addressed your post. I'm open for continued dialog.

Ron
