Well after the CALL I waited a little bit and got into a PUT. Why because TSLA had gone up so much I figured it would go back down. I put in a GTC and went to lunch..backyard and when I finished I checked TSLA and I was out of the trade. I really didn't think it would move that much in less than 25 minutes but it did so here it is... 05/08/2014 O STC TSLA May14 190 Put 4 $10.65 $14.95 $4,24by Darcy2 - Trading Discussion

moinnorf I think a lot depends on the person doing the trading. I just get too impatient for longer charts. I like to make my money and go do something else. Shorter charts have just worked for me. BTW I am a Chocoholic...I never have thought there was anything else to eat.by Darcy2 - Trading Discussion
I listened to the talking heads this morning and I decided right from the start my trade was going to be TSLA and was going to be a slam. I had a little problem getting out of the trade when I was up $6,100.00 but I finally settled for a lot less on my bid and got out here.

RR... Yep I love NFLX and AMZN for trades. Well to be totally honest I love tech for trading. S/O has been tradig q's most of the time because tech right now is really bad. Looking for an up trade in AMZN or NFLX before the next down.by Darcy2 - Trading Discussion

Okay example...Blow up your DOW chart on the daily. Start at Jan open. draw a ray line straight across making the line horizontal. Now look for the low at 2014 on your daily chart. Take a ray line from that low to the close of yesterdays candle. That area is an area of indicator resistance and support. Note you should end up with a triangle. Look at how many times on the daily chart the candles hby Darcy2 - Trading Discussion
I don't think you'll find that exact term. RT said it was a concept. Look at your indicators and find support/resistance. BB's for instance are a verified concept of resistance and support. Moving averages are as well...highs and lows, 52 week high 52 week low. MACD, Directial Movement...Stoch RSI...are all verified concepts or Support and Resistance.

I am glad you posted. I agree if one follows GW's teachings one will do very well. I think many will be assisted with your product. I think your product will be a terrific one. I only wish you could provide the ability to build a few charts. We have talked via email and if you ever have the program that allows me to build my E charts I will be on your product like a chicken on a bug. I love wby Darcy2 - Trading Discussion

The 200 movig average on the 55. I set an alert for $340.00 set my exit .05 higher and was out PDQ. So why would you have stayed in that trade...if you woud have?by Darcy2 - Trading Discussion
Strong money flow into NFLX caused S/O and I to really look hard at this stock. I can't say there was strong signals to enter this trade outside of the fact that money flow was so strong. So we rode the wave of the mney flow. I entered a little later than S/O. He enterd the trade when stock was 334.50 and bought his options @ 11.60 almost a dollar less that me.

Is there something after those dots that didn't come through or are you pondering? (Asks my S/O)by Darcy2 - Trading Discussion
I use simple moving averages on my Echarts. If EMA works best for you then I think that is fine. I just like keeping things as simple as I can. The moving averages GW uses are simple so I kept all my moving averages simple.by Darcy2 - Trading Discussion
tp...No because I had down signals on all charts...HRFP and E. Also note that the MACD was telling me down. That small gap down told me as well the direction but I honestly thought it would be a short trade.by Darcy2 - Trading Discussion

djp18....Yes it can be much-o bucks if you are looking for that quick answer. So allow me to say....there is NO quick answer. One persons teachng is as good as the next fellows just more expensive. I don't blame GW for adding classes and charging more for them. It isn't his fault people didn't study and read as he told them to do. I remember in 1-5 when GW would call for a break people rushingby Darcy2 - Trading Discussion

RR, Yes they've Emailed me several times today asking about my charts. I inderstand about the cost. S/O just said you can't beat the price of SD! But then how long will it be there I asked him...so he said to me If they included Echarts I am in but if not I am with Qcharts (Esignal). I am glad to know someone is starting up something that will help a lot of folks. I want everyone to doby Darcy2 - Trading Discussion
I received 2 emails from Alchemcharts. One on Monday and one today. I won't be using this product if I can't build my E charts and I will send them that information. These charts will only have what GW teaches. I like using what GW teaches along with my Echarts. For example today using Echarts I enterd the Q's off the 1 minute Echart using the signal on the 21 @10:04 sold @ 11:02. Bought @ $1.37by Darcy2 - Trading Discussion
Hum...I am wondering why you bought a Put? Looking at the 10 chart there was a gap up on TWTR on 4/14. The 55 shows a small gap up. A put would have to happen quickly because the direction of the trade was up. This sort of gap is telling you to wait for the pull back. Gaps are interesting. A stock can gap up and continue up, gap up pull back and then go back up or gap up and fall. A general tby Darcy2 - Trading Discussion
TCB...S/O uses all he has been using...55, 21, 13E,10E,5E,1E. Yes he uses the ADX and he uses the movement in the NASDAQ. The thing to also remember is the NASDAQ has really been making some huge moves which will make the Q's move. GP...I was advised not to post my charts because of Gary's settings. If you have GW's settings you have my charts except for the E charts and a dark ADX. E charts aby Darcy2 - Trading Discussion
