    SIGMA X crossing network Goldman Sachs

    I would like to know anyone's experience with SIGMA X, are you who are using it, using it to mainly get into and out of shares between the spread? Prints outside? Anyone getting in on the timed cross at 10:30? Trying to learn as much as I can about this. PM if neccessary.

    Tips on How To Trade Large Size - Getting Used to 5k share scalps?

    I would adjust accordingly. When you decide you want to trade 5k blocks, doesn't mean you do it on MA. If you are comfortable trading 100 shares on $100+ stocks try 400 or 500. Im hoping the OP can see L2 quotes and can adjust his size according to liquidity.

    Career traders - 2 hour lunches everyday?

    Exactly, would you rather compete with sophisticated algo's during lunch -- or fearful, greedy people at market open and close. This is day trading 101.

    2 hour lunch is not unusual. Most people get churned mid day. There is the occasional mid day move that is worth staying around for. It all depends on your style of trading.

    Tell me...is this really the hardest trading environment you have ever encountered???

    I think you answered your own question here. If the people saying this is the hardest market they have ever traded are in their 20's...they are probably correct. Most "young bucks" were in jr high and high school in the 90's -- not trading shitty markets. So yes, this probably is the hardest...
