    Yes, I am just trading the Dec YM now. I covered at 9444, and the market started back up so I shorted, but a little early at 9480. Damir got it at what was at least temporarily near the top at 9495. I'm short and have my fingers crossed. If it continues up I'll short more, but I'd rather it went...

    Thanks. Me, I'm just waiting for a little teeny tiny bit higher price before I short. Is that too much to ask? lol I'm trading stocks and am doing a little bit of lightening up while I wait. I'm prudently (or stupidly, depending on how it turns out in a few months) reducing the amount of...

    Which reminds me, I've been meaning to ask. Any links to sites that do show the DOW futures during the night?

    Nice day for you, considering what we were up against, with such a narrow range. Congrats!

    He can afford to be bald if he wants. I don't personally find that an issue. I think ethics are an issue, though. I don't think people should have capitalized astronomically from 9/11. The Mayor did that sort of thing, too. He and Grasso did a good job but it was their job to do a good job, and...

    Ah, I've been alternating between worrying and napping. I accidentally made a big buy this morning, when I was trying to set up some orders for later on. I've been waiting for the market to give me a profit. Just one of those days on the edge... Also worrying about my main computer who is in...

    Correspondence with IB regarding the incorrect fill. Not one word about paying up. So far, anyway: Dear Trader, Thank you once again for your patience. The programming department has determined that there was a technical issue that affected modifications on GTC orders. The issue has since...

    I don't know the 1-800-channeling-stocks method, but from what you say, it's different from AIM (Lichello's system) both if it's confined to stocks and also if it gets you entirely in and out of a vehicle. A flaw in AIM is that AIM never gets you all-out. You have to decide that independently of...

    All this is interesting and some over my head. It sounds like some people do calculate mathematical formulae to determine risk/reward. I'm no good at algebra or arithmetic and I'd be puzzling over it for a month, losing my entry. Yet, I find it useful to do two things, each in different...

    I haven't been able to pull up the TWS for 8-1/2 hours. Is there something wrong at my end, or is that the way it is for everyone? Thanks.
