Weazel, modified the scholastic oscillator to work with the gap down signal. As a point of entry.will give you a chart so you can see where the point of entry comes into play and how long it stays in play.
This has always been my Achilles' heel, where to go in. I realize it will not be perfect all the time, but it will get me in the ballpark a great deal better than what I have been doing.
It still needs to be back tested. Just wanted you to take a look at it
What you will see is a red line going perpendicular, which will be your entry point and then it will start going sideways and then it will move down. This will be your exit point.
look at the second entry and exit point.profit was made on this one also.

Weazel, that is how it should work. But I need a great deal of back testing before becoming comfortable with it.
If it does work,look out. We're going to town with a wheel barrow full and that is not a wheel barrow of . chuck

Weazel, whent in on a short at 12.89. That was after the pullback. Will give you a chart and you can see why I did this. You remember the scholastic oscillators, tweaking I was doing. It paid off on this one.
I went in on the third vertical line going from left to right. The next vertical line will be a cover signal,but I did not come out, reason being I was still under the big red line, which was my eight EMA lower band. came out at the Green or blue arrow .

Nice job!!!! I like how you wait for the confirmation and don't just jump in...
Thanks for the chart! Looks like that new vertical red line thing is working great!

Weazel,I was very nervous yesterday when I did use the Scholastic indicator that I readjusted or the red line. I still think I have a long way to go before I will really trust it.
I was just wondering, does it help to give people the charts, when I am explaining what I am doing. Than rather just talk about it?

ACE, sorry I have not gotten back to you sooner. I look back at my records and can not find the site that you were questioning about. chuck

Thanks for the complement.

Muney, wish I could help you about the tax question.T he way I trade, it really does not make any difference. I am in and out so fast that has really no effect on the way I trade. I'm sure that swing trading and longer-term held positions should pay heed to it.
Weazel, You are correct about shorting all the way down to the bone. My best trading coms during quarterly reports, and when the market is seesawing back-and-forth. So let the force be with you guys, and hopefully we will all have a great week.

are any of you guys tracking this symbol? -- NUAN --. I cannot find anything wrong with it. So I have to assume it is following the market.

Had nuan in my site this morning, was ready to go in. Then the Internet went down, started to call Ameritrade to put in a order. But with the Internet down and my charts were not accessible, decided to stay out. chuck

concerning post 281 ---- this is a follow-up on MOT.
was a great short for anyone that took advantage of it.
Following is a chart of entry and exit points. Entry point look at the perpendicular orange line. You also see a red arrow. The exit point is a perpendicular blue line. You also you see a blue or green arrow.
this happened the other day when the stock broke down.
