    Dangerous and sad situation!!

    The title of the thread is kinda humorous. "DANGEROUS and SAD situation" Does anyone else feel danger when posting on ET? Is it really a sad situation that RS7 has chosen to leave these boards? :confused:

    how do u determine if something is statistically significant?

    Mr Gekko, I have decided to post an idea just to try a help you in your quest to find significance in trading. Tons of smart people posted replies on this forum but in my opinion their WAY over complicating the issue, as are you. I don't spend to much time here on ET but I understand that...

    Can this market get any more pathetic

    Good point about the different times frames. different time frames require different stops, and larger swings, leading to larger winners and of course losers. I trade the dow on 5 min, 10 min intraday and 60 min swing style trading. And yes, on my 60 min trades I will, from time to time, take...

    Can this market get any more pathetic

    I must have very different trading ideas then yours. In my opinion the mini dow is great to trade. Huge daily swings give you plenty of time to jump in and out of daily trends. I only hold my longer term trades over night but I am aware of getting burned there. I find that the more I trade...

    how do u determine if something is statistically significant?

    I don't get the question Gordo. Maybe try looking at it in time frames instead of "number" of trades. For instance, if you are looking for daytrading strategy that you want to use to try and get a couple NQ points, a couple times a day then just go back 30 days or so, count the trades the...

    Can this market get any more pathetic

    I'm having a good time trading the Dow mini. It still makes good swings during the day where you can pick off 30 points or so. What's wrong with that?:confused:

    IB Margin change

    Lets pick at some stuff here.... Why does the firm care if newbies trade their butts off? That's how newbies learn. Just because you have less then 2k you should not trade futures. Why? Maybe not ES but what about mini gold? Maintenance margin of 100 bucks. I know guys who have become...

    IB Margin change

    Money never sleeps hey Def? I still say that what Ib has done is just flat out lazy. Do you know that there are 30 ssf's on stocks that are under 20 bucks? Anyone with 1300-1600 dollar account could easily manage one of these contracts with very little chance of blowing out an account from...

    IB Margin change

    Def your first comment here makes no sense. Why would it be confusing to have different margin requirements for the 80 different ssf's? Every futures contract traded has different margin requirements. Index, Agricultural, Currency, ect......... Why would it be hard for the stocks to be...
