Thanks Vikram

I have S7 that is still technically 'active' and capital. What are the best prop firms to look at for semi active Day Trader? No nonsense payouts, financial stability and reputation as important as rates and platform. Ideas? T3? Bright? Any others?

Has anyone on this forum had any experience with TSL personally?

Thanks - that makes sense.

I have read through quite a bit of this forum. Lot's of very good stuff (especially for ET). I am working through the book. Doing some simulated trading, re-reading, etc. This back and forth process seems like a good way for me to absorb these concepts. One thing that I keep running...

Anyone else seeing April Hogs trading 5555 while the Junes are trading 7070. I had to roll today, but just discovered this price discrepency. did they change the quantity delivered starting in June?

50% returns with a one time drawdown of 50% is pretty bad. Nobody in their right mind would allocate real money to it. And you are working with a single stock/instrument, so that makes your results even more worthless. You need to apply your system to a wide portfolio (at least 20 - 30...

Side Show . . . . something does not add up. ICE fills (if the market is open and not limit up/down) are purely electronic (as far as I know). I have never had a delayed fill on any of the new Sugar, Cotton, Canola or Cocoa markets. In fact, I did a roll today in Cocoa at the market from...

Ya - all good stuff. PA up another 3.11% today so no complaints. I did find it interesting how many uses there are for palladium. Catalytic converters, oil refining, fuel cells, etc. Maybe we get some element of 'alternative energy' to keep pushing demand...

outstanding info def. Thanks for taking the time to explain that.

Very intesting point. Metals in general are up huge, so maybe this breakout is just palladium catching up. A big reversal in the metal complex could bring this thing all the way back down, and I will get stopped out unch. Oh well - no biggy. But - as a trend follower the last thing I want...

YAHOO!

Even if they want $200k, it still seems strange that the big would be available and not the mini. Where is the logic in that? Oh well - I guess you 'can't fight city hall'.

That was a classic response. As one of the 'three' people that are long, I will make sure and come back with a 'Yahoo!' if we breakout through 400! Actually, the depth of this market has gotten way better than it was 2-3 years ago. If we start to get 4k+ volume, it could be in for a...
