Thomas! I always admired your calls in the past and actually followed the thread way back in the past and felt really in love with the quality of the posts during the time Zane Myers, Autumn Henry, CLint, you, Tom Trader, Kevin and Judy were on this thread. Great reading and very instructive. You made a great call buying last week. You said in one of your last posts that you wanted to exit today. Did you do that? How do you determine these time frames? I wrote in a post to Harry just a few minutes ago that i exited too early and left a lot of mullah on the table but still had a good week. Was wondering what do you use as a sign for exiting positions? A couple of month ago you used in stocks a test of the bollinger bands as reversal sign. I could see that for the NAZ too, especially in a situation where the 20DMA is not upward trending any more but flat suggesting a rangebound situation. I'm not a daytrader but try to position trade. I will try to use the 30SMA on the 15minutes time frame as a trailing stop to put my trading on a more objective basis. Always when i exit emotionally(=fear)i notice that the move goes often a lot further in my direction but without me on board. Any comments would be appreciated whatever your time permits. Stefan
