I am not sure what exactly I had, but I was sick for 4 days without mercy.

And of course I had to be completely out of Biotic Silver...

Sounds rough, sorry to hear that

Thanks Pablo101

Random Rules of Thumb for Successful Trading:

Never place another trade fewer than 20 minutes after the previous trade (20 minutes after the prev. trade NOT per 20 min. candle)

a. Nothing significant happens every 20 minutes

b. If something significant is happening then you should have held your first trade

You should not use more than 20 to 1 leverage.

a. If you are targeting 40+ pips then your leverage should be 10 to 1 or less.

b. If you are targeting 40+ pips and trading multiple time frames and/or pairs then you should between 2 & 5 to 1 leverage.

Trade the larger time frames (DO, WHAT, MATTERS) first and then look to the intraday charts to carve out smaller moves in the same direction.

a. by "intraday" I mean 6, 8, 12, & possibly 4 hour charts if you are feeling frisky.

b. 6 hour is tied to D1 color, 8 hour to W1, & 12 hour to MN.

~ Always BUY when a candle is GREEN

~ Always SELL when a candle is RED

a. Small corrections turn into large corrections and large corrections turn into real moves.

b. If price is not correcting then it is moving in the direction of the trend.

c. For RATS, the trend is simply the selected color and the correction is the opposite color.

This is what I have noticed:

If price opens above 61.8% then the chart is bullish until price opens below 38.2%.

(Both the Recent Candle and GRIDIRON are set to

This would be a variation of high TF candle color where the distance between 61.8 and 38.2% is considered to be a thick horizontal line (above = green and vise versa).

If price opens above the line that signals strength

Price opening inside the line after strength is great position in the larger picture.

how does one determine the look back periods for the gridiron
for the various timeframes any hints?

It takes 3 candles to interpret momentum:

1. non-momo
2. possible momo
3. hugging candle

The candles are considered to be 1 unit of the larger time frame which also uses 3 candles to determine its momo and that brings me to 9 candles or a setting of 8 on the GRIDIRON and/or Recent Candles indi.

I don't think it really matters what settings you use as 100 candles seem to work just fine as well.

I would use a setting of 8 on all time frames down to 4 hours.

The inputs!!

myBars - set it to the number of bars to use. If = 0, uses all bars visible on the chart.

myShift - bar to start with. 0 = current bar, 1 = previous bar.

I buy when price is going up or sell when price is going down.

I have lost the will to do anything more complicated than this


Now I shift my focus to Bobbo's Bible and Baluga Whale's Easy Game

Why did I ever bother to think...
