Joe, you're right - it's not an issue. When I become a consistent winner on the dax, I won't care wether the USD is weak compared to NOK or not!

Once I asked a German trader I met in a chatroom why he traded the eminis like I did and not the German market. He answered me that he wanted to be where the volume and action was. Lucky for me, I decided to take a look myself and wow - how wrong can you be? The DAX is nothing but the Ferrari on...

Happy New Year everebody from overseas. Me too have 3 yrs live trading experience on this very date, and I'm not consistently profitable yet, but like some of the other guys here, I know that 2003 will be the year when all the pieces will fall in place - and for the first time I'm doing...

I'm trading the major European indices now, mostly the dax - and not to mention the mib30 - amazing trading vehicles that make the eminis almost like turtles (I've been trading the eminis for 2.5 yrs). Using rt3 from ird.com now - anyone has som other software to recommend?

Matrix - of course...:cool:

aphie - a good point - I forgot to tell you that When I was loosing I used to trade 1-2 contract (only 1 actually in 80% of my trades) - and now with $200-500 - I STILL DO!! Besides - I've never said anything about trading without emotion and that is absolutely not the message I get from...

Interesting to read the comments - a couple of you agree with me that this might be the core of success. I myself have not yet arrived at the point where Neo is in the last scenes of the film - realizing that he's the one and thus being able to mentally bend the rules. But after 3 yrs of...

What is the core of a trader’s success? Do you believe it is the trading systems, knowledge of the markets, the high priced seminars and chatrooms or the setup on your monitors? Yes – it might have some influence on your results. But after years of struggling and losing $$ to the markets...

Well Jack, I believe you must be looking at the wrong STOXX50 contract. Total volume today in the DJ Euro STOXX 50, DEC02 futures contract trading at DTB is 613531. More than twice as many as the nq today. Euro BUND (10yr) 1128943 contracts today! Euro BOBL 694387 and the Euro SCHATZ 604324...

1contract - ditch said it. And that goes for the DAX as well - actually the DAX is awsome. But as it invites to huge profits, it also put you in danger of severe losses. But the main thing for me when I started out in Europe as an addition to the US markets, I suddenly had so much more time and...

For 3 yrs I was trading the US markets, mostly the eminis, believing I was trading the ultimate thing. Now I've discovered that I'm actually sitting on top of the ultimate trading vehicles - the DAX, ESTX50, CAC40 and not to forget the footsie! :D (I still enjoy the eminis as well...)

Realtime newsfeeds is a topic seldom mentioned here at EliteTrader. When the those numbers come out in the morning, obviously some guys know the news before I do! Do any of you out there subscribe on any direct realtime newsfeeds? I know the cost of these subscriptions probably are high, and I...

I've been using IB ( and RT 160$/mo) for more than 2 years now. The control you're in and the speed when executing with TWS, is absolutely outstanding.
