My broker doesnt have them.<br />Most of the time you can trade AH and get near the price, sometimes a better price. Next morning for me anyway, never works out with all the gaps that occur.jaws57https://www.blogger.com/profile/13970019545195923308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6839599187534986560.post-80687799136325156472012-05-07T14:14:26.944-04:002012-05-07T14:14:26.944-04:00Sure...

Friday 12/9/11 was a good example of what I strive for when I have the time to post. <br /><br />To follow my signals, I think you'd only have 2 options. Trade the following day or dump the Rydex in favor of TNA. There is nothing wrong with trading the following morning, but sometimes you'll miss out on the gaps.Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04954636315935734354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6839599187534986560.post-84715706446772827182011-12-09T17:47:22.715-05:002011-12-09T17:47:22.715-05:00J-Trader

I just found your web site yeaterday via Cobra and I don't know if I can use your signals. <br />Do you have any suggestions?

So I have to wait til the end of the day to make sure I get the right signal. Many days I can "predict" the signal way in advance - in the early afternoon. See June 29 for example. Yes, I have definitely backtested waiting until the following open to place the trade. I agree with you that would be so much simpler, but the gaps hurt profits significantly. It's honestly night and day. Almost 80% of profits are lost. :(J-Traderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01376530177559780760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6839599187534986560.post-92207900229041605452011-06-27T18:58:48.111-04:002011-06-27T18:58:48.111-04:00Thanks for the background.

Have you backtested the results using complete data (including the 4:00 - 4:15 VIX data you mentioned) and always buying first thing in the morning. It seems like this might be easier from a practical standpoint since you don't have to submit a market order right at 3:59 and hope you made it in time. Of course I can see price gaps potentially messing this approach up. Just curious for your thoughts on why it's worth the hassle of creating the signals right at the end of the day. Looks like a great system!safeskieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13394985319444108511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6839599187534986560.post-57518692100260679772011-06-25T11:24:48.493-04:002011-06-25T11:24:48.493-04:00Thanks for the posting and commentary.
