The "advisers" I witnessed in #emini practiced the fine art of "past posting" their trades . Nearly every trade posted had 1-3 tics of profit on the trade versus the current bid/ask at time of posting. All exits occured on an adverse move and of course were posted as having occurred just before...

Is Velocity related to the old "Summit Trading " ? Does Velocity have a public trading "room", and if so are there additional fees for trading from it ?

Hi probability systems need to be closely examined to be sure the fills are reasonable in real time actual trading . In the ES for example, I have developed many such ideas which test out nicely , but often buy a bottom tick/ sell a top tick. As anyone trading the ES lately knows, most of the...

Testing on the $ndx.x uses 20 "shares" to equal 1 NQ. WHY the NDX? It is continuous and for the Q`System there has been very little difference between testing on the actual futures contract and the cash index.
