The book only costs £17 on Global Investor!

Doesn't seem much to pay if you want to study his methods?

I read that there's a book by Linda Bradford Raschke (and Laurence Connors) called Street Smarts: High Probability Trading Strategies... that discusses the Taylor technique but it's pretty expensive. I saw there is a copy of it being distributed on the eDonkey 2000 network (eMule).

it's very difficult to understand the original Taylor's book, better to study it from other sources eg George Angell's books, just my 2 cents

The principles behind the Taylor Technique are not disputed in Street Smarts but Raschke and Connors observed that people using Taylor's methodology had trouble figuring out which day should be a buying day and which one should be a shorting day. Apparently, Taylor had many rules for shorting on buying days and vice versa, and R & C thought this too complicated to be practical, hence the alternatives they offered in their book.

So I guess reading both and adapting it to suit your own method is the way forward...

I am not advocating any method or system, simply trying to find one that suits me and what I want to achieve... namely profitability

So all comments/suggestions are welcome

 

[tomorton]

Yes, I think your conclusion's good. In fact, nearly every methodology I have read about on this site and elsewhre could be better used by each trader by adaptation to that person's own style, approach and psyche. It's almost impossible to exactly mimic somebody else's system and probably wouldn't hep if you couild.

This is my input.

There is something in this technique but as always when something has been around a long time its evolved. So people many people try and focus on the old technique whilst they should focus on how its working in todays market.

I made $6,000 trading the EURUSD in my blog for everyone to see this week calling the move before hand and as I went. Then I worked out the sequences I was trading aligned to the days of the week and the three day cycle. It was perfect. It was also there when I did some back testing.

I then searched the internet for info and came accross this thread. Every where I went they focused on the old way of doing things. There is a three day cycle but it doesnt trade the old way it has a new 3 day sequence.

You can view my blog if you search my profile and find my web site. If you'd like to check out the move I played and see if you can see the cycle I think is occuring.

In trading you need to find out what is working in todays market. You can search and find out what's happened in the past but for me you need to adapt it to todays price action. I'll be trading the next EURUSD 3 day cycle live in my blog once it sets itself up. If youre interested, click my photo and go to conatct info for my web site and entry to my blog. Its free.

I update my trading blog two or three times a day. When/if the EURUSD sets up for the next cycle I'll be on it again and you can watch the move and hopefully learn from it. It should be fun, just like it was last week.

Up $2000 so far today in my blog. I'm trying for the three day sequence mentioned in this thread.
My account shows where my entry was. Now its up to me to see what I can do with it.

Well the cycle was there. It had an interesting twist which I noted this morning in my blog. I'm up $2,500 today. I'll be closing out in the final push, all details of what happened are in my blog.

I dont dispute that the basics are there however having traded it this week and written it up in my blog live twice a day every day as I went along, I've worked out my own rules that I'll use in the future.

With respect I think that many clever people can work out that something occurs, but they lack that trading edge and thier rules can over complicate things creating analysis paralysis. Hence why R&C offered alternatives.

I'll keep on trading it, refining it and writing up things in my blog as I go. I'll have it nailed believe me with the best rules that work on todays markets.

 

[Naz]

I'm very happy with the way things went in my blog this week and we cught the end of the cycle in advance which was great. I traded it all the way so people could see how I was reading the cycle and applying my trading to it. Good luck and feel free to get in touch with me if you are interested in anything to do with it.

My details are on my web site.
