    Averaging Down the real Holy Grail

    OK - here's a reality check for ya'll. Yes, as some of you have guessed correctly, I have used avg. down (or scaling in or whatever you want to call it) as part of my trading over the past 4 months. It's not all I do but is a very powerful tool. I have not commented much on my trading on ET...

    +$1320 net, 250 ES traded I'm back - sort of... Trying some new things and decided simulator was too unrealistic for limit orders since it fills you at first tick on price bid or offered! On "real" ES I normally get filled near the end since I always seem to be near last in queue. Good day...

    -$27,240 net, 216 ES traded End of a terrible week. Violated my own new rules today. It's obvious my current trading cannot handle this recent market action so I will be going back to the simulator next week or longer to work things out. I'm still up just over 100% on year thanks to...

    Thanks for insight. Short of what I posted yesterday I don't want to get into a discussion of my trading here. But don't worry, I will not become "completely decimated." BTW, I see you posted 2 huge $40k+ days in Aug. in this thread but nothing since. Come on back and post daily. We all...

    -$92,703 net, 364 ES traded Not a good start to month. And not a good day to be short with too much leverage on. S%&t happens... Back at it tomorrow - maybe with some new "rules"

    CBOT down?

    I hedge ES with ~1.27 YM contracts for each ES. To hedge YM, take the inverse: ~0.79 ES contracts for each YM you had on. Good luck to all stuck in YM.

    +$4896 net, 137 ES traded About $3k of this was after the FOMC. I went long 2 cars just prior to FOMC with sell limit at 1505 for a quick $500. Boy did I underestimate that move up! Missed some trades shortly after since my broker lost quotes twice for a few minutes. But overall happy...

    Open E Cry what a disappointment!

    Saxon curious if you switched brokers? If you did, you missed CME quotes (ES anyways) going down twice at Open E Cry within the first 15 mins. after the FOMC rate announcement. Outages lasted just a few minutes but my disappointment that this can happen grows. Luckily my eSignal charts kept...
