Nice! :)

Don't worry, be happy :)

You're onto something: you have to find a trading system/style that fits with your personality, otherwise you'll find a way to mess it up. As for backtesting, keep in mind the maximum drawdown, that with automated systems and real money on the line tends to affect people more than the number...

I guess you mean "employment" tanking :) Isn't that the case in the US as well? Record corporate profits while workers take it in the... ahem, chin?

Haven't heard about this in Spain, do you have a link/source? Thanks [What I've read about is banks taking possession of developers' unsold properties and renting them out with a purchase option (i.e. have a 5-year window in which the tenant can decide to purchase the property and have the...

You truly are a patient man. :)

Aren't you short oil?

BlueStreek, Thank you for the pointer. Normally I don't put on trades after 1:00 CST (live) or after the close (sim). I saw some weakness in the euro and I thought equities were going to correct some before the long weekend (basically day traders in the green for the day). The point of...

:02 stop to be (.93) - about to get stopped out be :04 stopped out be Have a nice Thanksgivings everyone Go get your extra half buck, StarT!

We had a previous gap at 1196.50 ES Dec that we've already filled. We have today's gap below at 1179.25 (for a fill) or 1186.75 for a test of its edge. However, so far we're having a strong trend day and now comes into play the 4-day weekend, so good luck making a call here :)

You may be right, either way, I'd be surprised if we stay right here - in the middle of nowhere. I'd say, it's going to follow equities, up or down.
