Nice post....! I think many who have crossed paths with Isopatch find his uppity-up nose-in-the-air attitude to be the main problem. If you are interested in debate with Isopatch, you kind of have to get in on his good side first before he takes the easy road and puts you on ignore. I would be the first to admit I think he is a good trader in certain sectors <most notably Energy> but he does not post in REALTIME which is a shame. I will NOT share with you or the thread one of his PM's to me last year from the Strictly Drilling thread....but you would be surprised of the content. Jane

Your right of course Freep. Personally, I didn't think Iso or Paul or Claptons's Guitar would repspond to me. I'm on for the challenge (gulp... help <g>) Well Iso or Paul or Claptons guitar or whatever... Why don't we just post our posts based on charts that r readily available to everybody & go from there <sp?>.... May the best man or woman win <ggg> Best of luck guys/girls.... pick a time frame and a chart with my daily parameters... & we r on investorshub.com Started By: svenlar Assistants: None Created: 10/5/2001 10:24:12 PM This is a thread to discuss the TA merits of Stocks that trade on a variety of senior exchanges, preferably with a minimum volume of 50,000 for the TSE & AMEX; & 200,000 shares average volume for the NYSE, NASDAQ. I rarely play the CDNX... but I have no choice in the current market enviroment... (resource friendly), note these stocks are thinly traded & one must always use limit orders & sit on the bid or ask for days or weeks in order to get a fill. High risk IMO but sometimes very high reward. Please do not post OTC Canadian (CDNX) or OTC American stocks. (ie: Nasdaq pink sheets) I am a novice chart reader giving opinions that I hope will help me and others learn some more about Technical Analysis. Sometimes I'm right, most of the time I'm wrong. Which is why I use stops. Mental, physical or otherwise...depending on the liquidity <g/ng> ********************************************************************************************************************************** My typical charts now show the following indicators: Candle Chart - a candle price chart used in conjunction with Moving Averages (on the Price Chart) - I have been using a 5 X 21 day EMA moving average. Moving Average crosses, either of the daily price over various MA's, or of each other, are often significant. Note that I like to work in three different periods, monthly, weekly, daily or weekly, daily, hourly. With confirmation ideally in all 3 time periods, but I am comfortable with two timeframe confirmations (higher risk though...) Moving average articles: stockcharts.com stockcharts.com ADX - the ADX line (heavy black) is used to establish whether a strong trend (rising ADX) or a weakening, non-trending period is in effect for that particular chart. In trending (rising) periods, trend following indicators (MACD and MA's) are perhaps more valuable. In non-trending (under 20) or possibly flat or falling periods, oscillating indicators (Stochastics for example) may be more appropriate to use. ADX article: stockcharts.com stockcharts.com +DI, -DI (within the ADX section) - these lines are indications of buying &/or selling strength It may be useful to use a cross of the +DI over the -DI as a buy signal in conjunction with other indicators, and to use the opposite cross as a sell signal or as a possible short. DMI chart example: stockcharts.com stockcharts.com MACD - See above re: use in a trending market (see ADX: above 20) Stochastic - For an oscillating or a non-trending market (see ADX: below 20) market. OBV- an indicator of the strength of money flow into or out of a stock over a period of time. Occasionally I will post Pnf (point & figure) charts, along with detailed explainations, in conjunction with the other charts.

John Murphy's Ten Laws of Techincal Trading stockcharts.com I dedicate this thread to the Chief Subject 23802 Ward Subject 23841, Keith Member 3623395 & Cush Subject 23426 who immeasurably helped me to establish my bearings in this treacherous market. So..., from a long, long, time ago, I will never forget the education that I received by these previously mentioned thread moderators... Hopefully, I can pass on the knowledge that I was lucky enough to glean from those threads. Regards, Peter Options: Remove 'Swing trading Canadian' E-Mail List Subscription
