    How can moving averages work as s/r?

    Would you buy a used car off this man?

    imho, jack made many poor decisions during his life's course, which have locked him in the box he now finds himself in. so, no, i would not even buy a used car from him, because he is the type that realizes, too late, that he has bought a lemon and has no qualms about trying to fob it off onto...

    Trendy contract..

    ES often "pops and chops." Many of the players may take a position and hope for a big buyer/seller to come along and make their position good. It may be more of a breakout play contract, possibly trending after the breakout. What about NQ, bond and currency futures?

    DOM ACV and bid/ask WALL used tgether

Sort of makes t&s superfluous, no? What I am trying to say is that with volume and last price data you could do...

    Was looking at IB's margins and noticed the margin on this is low. It is 13-week t-bills on GLOBEX. Anyone trade this? If I think that 13-week bill price will decrease, would I buy or short GTB? Sorry if this is a n00b question -- I have only bought the underlying thru treasury direct up until...

    DOM ACV and bid/ask WALL used tgether

    But if you program something for the dom, do you have to mess with time and sales? Just look at volume and last price.
