/ES Futures Trading Strategy on ThinkorSwim

[HombreLobo]

@HombreLobo On my 1D 2000t chart it is the auto fib. On the 1000t, I draw them on the most recent swings. That could be 15min, 1hr, 2hr, etc. It could be a 5 point swing or a 10 point swing just depends on price action..

Got ya, thanks for the quick reply! Is there a discord server/channel for the forum/this thread that I'm missing? The link earlier in this thread is dead.

@MBF The FE is not directional. Looking closely the price did a small consolidation at the time of low FE then the FE began rising but is not directional so it is telling you the price trend was exhausted and then is moving with more energy again but not telling you what direction. Use the other indicators or watch the price to see the direction. Put the VWAP with fractual energy indicator on your chart and watch how it interacts with price. Maybe that will help you visualize better how FE interacts with the price.

can you please point to VWAP with fractal energy indicator? is it coded in VWAP? thks

Do you know how to add sound alert to the WaveTrend Arrows?

Minor update to the setup. I essentially turned the 2000t chart into a lower study for the 1000t by converting it to an area chart. I felt like I was missing good entries by wasting time looking back and forth between the two charts. By doing this I can now see the 2000t confirmation in my peripheral vision.

@blakecmathis Can you share your grid? Thanks!

@blakecmathis if I'm using your old shared grind and you make changes to it, will I receive your changes or have to use the new link? And if I want to save that old setup before using the new one, how?

I'm new to script so please excuse me

 

[BenTen]

@tem2005 You can keep the same setup that you already have and only need to add the additional script from @blakecmathis chart to your existing setup.

When you open his new shared chart, just make note of the name of any new script in there. Then load it up on your current setup.

Awesome setup but after reading through all 26 pages of this thread, I'm not exactly sure where your entry and exit points are (triggers). I appreciate any dumbed down explanation you take the time to send (or if I missed it in the thread). Thanks!

 

[blakecmathis]

Entries are defined by buy/sell signals from the WTO in conjunction with confirmation from CCI/ATR combo on the 2000t. I know there's gotta be 100 screenshots of those setups in here man. As far as targets/exits go, a lot of different things come into play. Previous S/R, time of day, price action, fib levels, how many contracts I'm trading, etc. That one is a little harder to answer because I can sit here and point out exits on a chart all day but none of that matters until I'm actually in a trade and experiencing the tension if that makes any sense.

Read it again, and review each posted screen - will help, may be even few more times

@BenTen thank you for replying. So can you explain please how i can save my current setup and move it to another laptop if I want to?

 

[BenTen]

@tem2005 Your setup should be saved automatically on ThinkorSwim server. There is nothing to do except installing the platform on your new computer and logging in. But just to be safe, you can click on the Settings option (top right hand corner) and then Save your workspace.
