Yes, would like to hear more from someone who's used his system
longer. I always thought using the closing price of the signal day
was only for entries. As far as exits, my plan is to get out at the
next day's open if I receive an email alert after the after-hours
session is over.
I prefer to enter/exit at the closing price of the signal day.
But I can only do this if I get the email alert before 8:00 PM/EST
(Close of the after-hours session).

I've traded his system for a long time. I use 20 minute charts
to cycle into the call, the next day after the call triggers. It
works more often than not. So, if it's a long call I look for a dip
in the cycle as my entry. That is my plan for tomorrow. It's not
his responsibility to finesse the entry for us. Sometimes getting
in on the day of the call works better, but he has posted stats
showing cycling in the next day, works better.
What do you do on a gap up like today for Marco's system? Do you
wait for a pullback later this week or next week? Or did you enter
today even though it never got close to a better price than
yesterday's close? I'm sure in the past, there's been breakaway gap
ups and breakaway gap downs that run further and further away from
the closing price of the signal entry. If a trader takes Marco's
advice and waits to enter the next day, there's a risk of missing
the trade if this happens? This may be a tricky question to answer,
and may depend on each trader, but just wanted to hear your
opinion. Tia.

Hi Steve,
You want to know if the results on the long-short-timing.com
site are real.
Yes, I've traded the system for years. Basically, it has doubled
my money roughly every three years. So, I don't care if a few
trades lose money. I know it works. It's free. He doesn't have an
agenda. And I can't find anything else with reasonable drawdowns
that get this kind of performance. I feel safe with the bulk my
capital in it. And here, I take individual trades from Matt and
Steve. RIght now, ARO. That's it. That's all I do. Simple, but
effective.

Steve 101- curious--- how many "3" year cycles have you
been through with the site? Interesting this guy does it for
free? why I have to wonder? but always interested & thnx
for sharing info as possible strategy augment.
Thanks steve101 -- my question is whether his published track
record is based on numbers that a trader could really get or not.
If he puts out the signal a couple hours after the close and bases
the record on that price when no one could get it I have a problem
with knowing how much of his performance is "real."

He posted a study on that a while ago. He uses the closing price
on the day of the call, just like the Decision Moose guy does. And
he showed that getting in the next days open (since 2003 if memory
serves), gets you in on average better than 1% over entering on the
day of the call. You can do better than that with the approach that
I use. I have..

Steve, you've traded Marco's System for a long time. Is the system viable? Does his numbers that he shows realy reflect his results? Thanks
