ravun -- to be honest I don't have an exit strategy yet related
to the TICk entry. Right now its just an entry for me, not a
complete setup. Then I'm watching support/resistance and
trendlines................... but for an entry based on the
TICK, I am inclined to exit EOD. That is, I'm considering it
a signal on an intraday timeframe.
If memory serves from the Schwart book it is merely an entry for
a quick trade only...it is not a system ..the opposite is
also true...above 1400? i think for a quick short trade...for
scalping only..hope that helps
brophy You're right. He usually doesn't hold for more than
3 days. Of course because he is trading options he gets
out before the volatility premiums contract. BTW I am talking
about Cook, not Marty Scwartz.
brophy -- Now I don't even remember what CArter says in his book
-- he has a specific setup called the tick fade. Have to read
it again! But it does seem like a scalp trade
signal..................still begs the question of an
exit............would be nice to qunaitify that.
When buzzy Schwart used it, he would wait for the signal long or
short and go in big time with 20-50-contracts of full S&P fut
contracts and then take a quick profits before it reversed...
I guess you have to develop a system for this yourself
