Elasticity Toolkit

The Elasticity toolkit was created to obtain maximum gains in both sideways and trending markets with minimum risk. Developed by Timothy Straiton, the system performs with incredible results in almost all equity markets with a daily periodicity.

One could visualize the action of a rubber band being stretched and at the moment where the expansion loses momentum, a contraction takes place, forcing movement in the opposite direction. The Elasticity system opens a trade at the moment that deviation from the mean price loses momentum.

A Lesson in Trading Psychology

by Brett N. Steenbarger, Ph.D.
Back in 2004, I joined Kingstree Trading, LLC, a proprietary trading firm in Chicago. There, I had the good fortune to get to know--and observe--many successful traders at work. One lesson particularly stands out in my mind. A trader saw buying come into the market, and he quickly jumped on board.

Technical Review

Nvidia - From bull trend to no trend.

2025-08-21 by Tim Straiton

Nvidia closed on Tuesday 19th August at 175.64. The strong bull trend which started in early May 2025 appears to be showing signs of exhaustion as shown in the high value of the choppiness index (55) and also the relatively high value in the ATR/ Bollinger Bandwidth (33).

The Elasticity 2.0 trading system has continually generated profitable buy signals since early May 2025. The most recent buy signal on August 7th 2025 at 189.77 has a target exit at $194.77 and a stop loss at $171.36. It is currently showing a loss of 2.92%.

The 240 minute chart paints a rather negative picture with the rising trendline support level originating from April 2025 having been broken. The Chande Trendscore Indicator has turned bearish and the MACD-V indicator is about to rupture the Zero line to the downside.

It is too early to suggest that the bullish trend is Nvidia is history. Additional Fibonacci upside projection targets based on the recent $86.62 to 153.13 range traded between January and April 2025 are as follows:

$194.23 (61.8%)
$219.64 (100%)
$260.74 (161.8%)
