High Volatility Trading

The EURUSD Pairing after jobs data yesterday was highly predictable and completely cyclical. We called for a rocket up on the news, but the cycles were showing lower on the trend. We saw Fridays trading in the EURUSD opening around 1.4185 and start to rocket on the data. But when it finally reached 1.4265 there were no buyers in sight the entire trip. It was all speculative sellers coming into play on the offer price as most were watching the 2 and 10 Year Yeilds. As that rose to 3.76% there was significant $ strength in the midst of a dollar sell off in phantom trading. This caused a monsterous retracement and a confirmation of us going lower for the general market momentum.

This weeks trades were slim but well prepared for. We will prepare the most recent for our viewers.

Week ending summary. 5/16/09

We had a great week! Lots of signals Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday... The market didn't know exactly where it wanted to go on Thursday so we were slapped around a little, but OH BOY did we come back Friday. Just about every trade went our way EXACTLY when we predicted it would. I remember one of them, the time's may no be exact.. but... the EUR was on a downward slope... Our prediction was to sell at 10:46, and it was just 10:35 or so... 85, 84, 84, 82, My comments were on the panel... "I'd like to see 93 on the 46 bar for the sale..." low and behold..... at 10:44..: 81, 82, 83, 83, 84, 86 at 10:45 91,90,91, 92 at 10:46, our projected sell time the magic comes through.... 92, 93, 94, 93 ...... I comment to all subscribers "SOLD 91" the next ticks on the screen from across the globe.... 84, 83, 82.... This was magic... It's a computational model that seems to work some wonders..

Arbitrage for retail traders?

Yes, arbitrage is real. And depending upon the methodology, the functions of it are available to retail traders as well. Likely not in the sense of sub-second arbitrage, or as we call it 'latency' arbs, but value trades in baskets are available routinely. These can be considered in tandem with M&A Arbitrage, but rather than looking at equities and options, it's done with correlation and the USDX, 'dollar index' against the whole gammut of the USD. The trades are available and do come into play quite often even for the retail sector. Send us an email at inquiry@rockshorepartners.com we'll be sure to respond and give you our in depth analysis.

Magical Numbers

When asked what time frames we trade in, I have to answer the question in form of a question... What time frames match within themselves? This is not meant to be a convaluted question, but what I mean to ask is what number (time frame) breaks down perfectly into other time frames without partials or as near as possible?

This can be better answerd by first describing the ratio. Lets look at the research that has already been provided by the use if Pi. Pi itself is the divisor that breaks down the daily chart perfectly to the 15 minute chart, and the 1 minute chart.

We trade the 1 Minute chart, with our trading strategies truly predicted and strategized over the 15 minute chart. We use neural networks to cover the multiple opportunites that arise in cyclical repetition and the odds are stacked in our favor in these combinations. Our signals are provided free via trial right from our site. http://www.rockshorepartners.com/ we hope to see you there.

This is the nearest to arbitrage as retail traders using MT4 or any other retail type quote and trading venue can achieve.

Great Moves

We have seen some really accurate trades in the past 24 hours. Our forecasting model has been doing extremely well and we look forward to continued performance and enhancements.

Evening Sessions

Stable Economic Conditions?

I think the true course of the economy is in the numbers. How can it be possible that with interest rates at relatively zero, the USD is stronger? Does the global economy actually believe that the safe haven is the greenback?

Let's look at the likes of the monsterous corporate frauds and bankruptcy cases. Should we second guess the economic numbers as well? Where is the dollars strength coming from ? Where is all the bailout money coming from? The stress tests show that Bank of America needs 34B in capital... and that's just one of the 10 that need it. Unfortunately our economy is on borrowed time and in for a rude awakening.

Building a Quantitative Model

Price discovery and forecasting are the ultimate objectives! How do we do this while not having access to the answers themselves? Quantitative Analysis... It's in the price movements themselves, and the bids/offers we see so much of.

When you place a trade and sit there, just to watch the screen tick by tick, one tick against you another one for you. Your brain is attempting to analyze the movements in quantitative methods.

Many times, a tick up is merely that, and done without any pressure from the buying side. There are methods to breaking apart each tick and identifying with relative certainty what each tick represents. Its the quantitative models and neural networks that are able to provide us with these answers. It is well known that the FX markets, as fragmented as they are, merely trade in micro regions of consolidation. A few minutes here and there, and in a sweeping step 10 pips lower in a flash of an eye. Prices are not as fluid as they appear, and price gaps are so frequent we cannot, atleast with the human brain compute them.

We look forward to feedback on tonights Rockshore Live Session.

Expert Advisor Programming

Is MetaTrader4 the optimum platform for retail traders? We typically shy away from such platforms as the latency is significant, and how often can you trade sufficiently with delayed data? For longer trending systems it may be sufficient, but when your putting your money at risk please investigate all of the applications available to a retail trader.

Triangular Arbitrage

Many come to us, and ask if we can program this trading methodology for them in an Expert Advisor for MetaTrader4. Typically triangular arbitrage requires vast credit lines and multiple counterparties to trade with, making it rather difficult to trade the strategy with a single broker.

There are... however diversions to this that prove profitable over and over again, maintaining a hedged strategy and only requiring small diversions from the process in general.
