Morning Everyone.
My FKOS sell stop is 29.11 today.
wanlorn: I'm confused: Emma is saying Bull P-S1, which doesn't make sense to me given that FAS has gapped up. (I'm still doing Emma 0945 - haven't had a chance to switch over yet.) |

Friday was a VERY big negative candle. This makes the P to S1 band extremely large. Emmaclean would have entered at 9:33 @ 29.55. Emmabands has not done anything yet.

Doh! I thought about the big candle stuff this morning, then forgot again. EmmaClean did pretty well on Friday too, didn't she? I guess my Emma is in bad need of a shower. |

Yes I have and I'm impressed. Unfortunately, I cannot trade with EMMA, so I'm trailing you guys via this board. :) |

FAS surged past 30. What does EMMA say? |

Emmaclean month to date is up about 10%. I am up about 17% as I got out of trades at no loss that I felt were going badly. Fridays 5.5% gain was a nice boost!

Well Emma is in FAS and will be till end of day unless a stop hits.
edit: XLF is now above P so original Emma would say you would want to look at bears if you weren't in bull earlier. Emmabands would still suggest bull because we started between MS to P band and moved to P to MR band. |

Wow what a reversal right there. XLF and SPX both bounced directly off of their Pivot (16.37 and 1284.7). Hopefully they will hold. I'll be closing out Emmas position if XLF dips below 16.37. |

Haven't sold yet but watching it closely here. It touched 16.36 but SPX pivot is still holding. |

Have a good trading day, everybody, and say hi to emma for me.
Found an interesting chart on finviz.com for any stock you'd care to plug in. |

I ended up selling at 29.96. An extra 1.35% for the month. |

Glad you were able to profit. Thinking of switching to a bear ETF... question is, which one... hmm. |

Are you using OKOS instead of FKOS? Using the worksheet I provided in the strategy section, I get the following with ATR5 and today's open of 29.51:
FKOS: 29.27 [0.234988249]
OKOS: 29.10 [0.398371144] |

Emma would have sold off at 29.92 at EOD. So I barely outperformed Emma once again.

I don't know why 29.11 was chosen. Since I'm not around the computer, Ninja Trader uses whatever price it gets at the tick at 9:30, which might be different than the actual opening price, especially if there's a lot of gyration right around open. So far it's been working for me, though. Also, I'm using ATR = 0.23, not 0.23498..... |
