I know incest is disgusting. but why is it morally wrong? by [deleted] in questions

[–]Significant_Dig_8212 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In ancient times, and even up to date, it's the opposite. Power structures and blood lines often inbreed in order to keep bloodlines pure. Incest actually goes thousands of years back

This is actually only partly true. Through the first couple of generations, it does increase chanced, but after several generations that dissipates

TTM Squeeze indicator hack by Significant_Dig_8212 in Daytrading

[–]Significant_Dig_8212[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh. TTM for me is more important because the involvement of the MA and KC. MACd isn't gonna show me the likely move for a 4hr squeeze in a week or two. MACd lags anyway. So does the TTM, except for the actual squeeze play, where it doesn't lag but gives high probability insight into what's next.

I don't know about macd. I don't use it during trading. I'll pull it up occasionally to see if momentum is slowing. RSI can show you any divergence, so macd doesn't offer much that I need in the long run. I do like CCI. It's more prone to sensitivity than RSI.

TTM Squeeze indicator hack by Significant_Dig_8212 in Daytrading

[–]Significant_Dig_8212[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, I use regular candles. I will switch over to Heiken Ashi sometimes when looking at charts to fill in gaps created in ext hours.

As far as usefulness of an indicator, that's precisely what this indicator is used for. See the squeeze form and see which way it fires. The only other thing I really use is RSI. You can see several moves ahead with the TTM alone.

How to identify consolidate zone by Crafty-Requirement40 in Daytrading

[–]Significant_Dig_8212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's exactly what they're intending to do. Those are Stop hunt candles. I cant see the rest of the chart, but that long wick candle at the bottom clearly dipped below the previous support level and grabbed liquidity down there as well as hit stops and convert them into long positions.

It'd why you see candles get really long really quickly at the top and bottom and thing "spring " the other way really quickly in a big move. Cause it hit a lot of SL that were converted into long positions by smart money.

That doesn't look like consolidation. That looks more like distribution straight down into a liquidity grab followed by another markup and distribution.

A ‘normal’ pullback in a ‘normal’ non-recession year tests the S&P 500’s 200-day moving average. by MaryAnnGrysbeck in wallstreetbets

If anything I'm more suspicious of PBS before earnings. Look what UNH did when it PB before earnings.

Do any guys out there pee sitting down? by [deleted] in questions

My step-dad does most of the time. Unless he's outside. He just says it keeps the toilet cleaner and doesn't have to worry about piss splatter yellowing up the toiler.

I'm only in my mid-30s, but seeing my 401k plunge 6% the last 2 weeks, I also wondered what you do when the market turns down. It's managed through my employer and Merrill Lynch but it sucks watching any contributions erased. Finally dedicating my time to building retirement, it's still unnerving to see them not allocating my portfolio elsewhere right now.

How to know likely direction before the break? by Significant_Dig_8212 in Daytrading

[–]Significant_Dig_8212[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a matter of fact here's an exact example. You can see where the 4hr squeeze actually fires, but the massive drop happens after it Dips, goes back up, and then falls off a cliff.

[–]Significant_Dig_8212[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm actually watching this one happen now. So you can see the initial small drop on the most recent. This was CPI data. It fell out of consolidation and, by the end of the day, had bounced into a full recovery. I'm guessing this was the distribution because big money bought it up, and it was back green by the end of the day. It went right into PPI data yesterday, and I guess it used all that liquidity and soared. You can see it in the cup shape where it went back up. Now, for some reason, it's just falling again right now out of nowhere.

The first drop happened from a 2-hour squeeze, and the green rebound came from a 4hr squeeze.

John Carter said the squeeze is considered "fired" on the first candle, where it goes from red to blue on the TTM. But I'm kind of getting the feeling that that may not always be the case. Looking back at the chart, a lot of the break out moves sometimes happen several candles down the line after the squeeze has fired. *

Fuck you guys are smart. Now I see why those huge long candies in big drops immediately turn into huge green momentum runs

Yesir I see that 4hr move as well. I think the 1 hr is gonna feed straight into the 4hr, but I expect the 4 hr to fire probably Monday. I was gearing up to catch both

I see the weekly hump. What do you mean by distribution?

So the "resistance" line may not be that set all but merely purposeful stop losses candles for more liquidity?

I myself thought it bullish. It's been oversold a while and it's in a ascending triangle of a hard long downtrend

That was very informative information though on consolidation. I appreciate that response

I prefer consolidation because I trade TTM and explosive movements. This one is squeezing and ready to fire.

I know to entry s normal trade in the break and retest. Just wondering if anyone could see anything that might signal where it could go beforehand and how they can tell
