Try swing trading them for trend, and quit playing rich / cheap fade-monkey. Works wonders. You might want to hang on to them a bit longer due to the stat arb turbulence. I agree about keeping your longs and shorts dollar-equalized. And choose sensible combinations within correlated market...

Ummm, if you are using the traditional pivot point calculations for S1, S2, R1, and R2 for Weekly and Monthly levels my advice would be for you to check your work again - especially if you are fading levels based on the trading day's opening mark and getting flat by that day's close. You also...

Your market "calls" have been the highest performing contrarian indicator going for quite some time now, shooter. S&P has gone up about 8 % since your short call. Good job. Very, very consistent. Smart money would subscribe to your services. Really.

Sorry, but I just have to call BULLSHIT until trader198 posts the complete unedited contents of his IB notification. And since he chose to air this out on a public message forum, in my mind he needs to. Us guessing back and forth and the OP withholding specifics is not constructive. Post the...

Why are the Nine_Ender, bc1, TILT2, newwurldmn sockpuppets so quiet ? GSC: Why no kudos to my ES 1370 target prediction when you were busy shorting 1322 ?

Right now, the equity markets are perfectly content to make an embarrassing fool out of the psychotic posts for Grand Super Cycle. For months on end, apparently. Something about a reverse waterfall megaphone. Once GSC has his nervous breakdown and quits posting, the market will go down...

I would like to politely disagree - it is all about ECN resources and getting paid for them. How does an exchange and a clearing firm manage ECN resources and make any revenue when you have retail punters flooding the system with messages and actually executing trades very, very little ...

Well, I'm sure that since Timber Hill's proprietary trading operations are so successful for them, that they will suck up all of the messaging bandwidth they can regardless if it is associated with sanctioned market making or their own high speed automated trading efforts. The simple fact is...

Well, the Interactive Brokers business entity of Timber Hill, LLC is NOT listed as a CME member firm - Timber Hill is. Looking at the CME membership directory, Interactive Brokers isn't Class A anything. And since Timber Hill certainly prop trades and messages extensively for their own...

Since I have had trading exchanges call me directly about my automation and messaging in the past ( the ICE desk in Atlanta in particular ), and since each and every one of his messages are tagged with his individual trader ID, I am not sure that the "collective action" arguement would hold much...

Actually, it really doesn't. Since his trading platform generates a unique and specific trader ID which is tagged in the ECN to the CME directly for each of his messages and fills, this is really on him and not IB. I would agree that IB should have warned him as a professional courtesy, but...

You know, I am looking at a Bund order book on TT as I type this, and 485K have traded and the market is 400 bid for and about 200 offered. Eurex scalpers switching from the Bund to the ZN or ZC or CL or whatever liquid electronic market will not find richer pickings. Seriously. You...

A delusion is a belief held with strong conviction despite superior evidence.[1] Unlike hallucinations, delusions are always pathological (the result of an illness or illness process).[1] 1.^ a b "Delusion". Princeton - Wordnet. Retrieved 8 April 2011.

I just got serious wood reading that gem ! Wow. That's the cat's ass.

I think it a mistake to assume that HFT firms like GETCO and RSJ are not currently or will not imminently be involved in those markets. If anything, logical deduction might conclude that about a dozen very good and well capitalized private HFT firms located in Chicago are in fact active in...

Well then, I would say that statement reflects what I have been saying for quite a while now: why scalp ? If the remaining traders you know are staying with trades longer, then it must have some validity, yes ? I am now looking at the FGBL order book at 7:12 am, and it is a couple hundred...

Dearest Grand Super Cycle: I think your perspective is understandably a bit narrow and biased. In no way can I defend Nine-Ender, but you are incredibly naive and narcissistic about your standing here on ET: 1. Look at this thread and your others: you keep proactinvely and unilaterally...

Oh good grief.
