I would suggest getting a real good understanding of supply & Demand. But be sure to have an understanding of it as it applys to bid/offer. As this is just my own opinion.. I'm sure there are other ways (as well as beliefs on understanding price action). Once you have a good understanding of...

Well I should re-phrase my post to say that it is impossible for me (at this time) :) to trade the eurex just off the order book only. I have been trying to key in on the order book to get a realistic feel for best entry and exits. I believe Youngtrader has figured it out :cool: I'm still...

I highly agree.. my method relies on me being absolutely correct on the direction of the move. Strength and direction get me into a trade. I try not to get deceived by what I see in the book :D But those nerds do get me sometimes. I actually missed out on trading today due to the NCAA...

I ask the weather man what he thinks...then I do the exact opposite!! :)

Called it a day.. and it started good with a nice little up-ward push in the early hours. I did get caught "looking" for a trend at one point when the Stoxx was just choppin around between 3755 - 3750. That gave me a chance to glance over at the DAX while waiting for a set-up. I'm starting to...

Bull$H!T contracts or not.... I'll trade pretty much any contract that makes me money $$. If I could trade POOP futures with an edge and make money.. better believe I would :D !! I'm in this market to make money ... not validate the quality of the contract. If I was into trading quality, I...

Lets hope this bad luck stops here. I don't like heading into the weekend on a bad note. Oh well... no bottles of premium alcohol this week.:confused:

The Stoxx chopped me up today. I couldn't really catch a decent trend, and I kept getting stopped out. Was at a small loss for the day. These days are expected though. We will see next week. ** I got a bad fill on one trade today and I ended up missing my profit target on that trade by 1...

.. A few good trades today. Just scalping my way through some of this choppyness (EDJSTX). I could have done better if I didn't chase a few trades. got over confident on some of these moves. I'm gonna call it a night (morning). Time to head off to work.

Oh, just to clarify, (I'm asking about the BUND on the slippage/liquidity issue.)

...just trying to keep this thread a live. The bund did hit that 114 handle a bit a go. bumpin around to 116 now :) (during US trading hours). - too bad I do all my trading during Euro market hours. I'm thinking of slowly increasing my lot size per trade. (Scalping 3-4 ticks) Is there any...

This thread seems to be going quiet now... Has everyone lost interest?

Again, I think it is very key with the HSI that you have a sound exit and money management strategy. We really need to get out when we get that signal. Don't let your losses run. If the HSI decides to jerk you around, get out if it goes against you. There is always that feeling that it may turn...

Well I've been MIA for a bit due to this US Market. Working on a bond desk has got me doing back flips...not always for a good reason. But back to the discussion. I think there are some valid points being offered here. ET99 is great at breaking down the structure of a trader and keeping...

ET99 :p :p Couldn't help to laugh with mixed feelings on that one.. That huge drop out right from the start of todays session had me shaking. I'm want to check out the evening session too, but I have to be up and at work when the market opens in the morning here in the US... **still...
