Schizo, yes 1) but by inter-market they mean in options & stocks, not futures (only calendar); 2) CME Globex doesn't, you have to trade through ClearPort; yes, ICE has several crack spreads, the one you're saying is symbol ENET. Aaahhh, so much theory, so little practice (me I mean) :D :p...

Congrats, Frank, a positive day is always good. Try this: in the DOM > right click > Select Advanced options Then you'll see at the bottom of your DOM, below your "Stop strategy" a Selector for "Shadow" (strategy). This allows you to compare the ATM strategy (or manual handling) you're...

Vol seems to be on a coffee break, so if I may... DEMTDAYBOYZ for da'green!!! :D

I think the problem Mr. Bo Chin has is that he wants to do inter-product spreads and with IB he can only do calendar spreads (in futures); i.e. he wants to buy Texas & sell Brent, but IB only allows him to buy Texas Dec & sell Texas Jan (or Feb, etc.). Edit: Mr. BC, you can trade some of...

Blox, NoEmotions, ahem... I thought it was evident that I was joking :D Sorry for any confusion. Actually I was in can't-pull-the-trigger mode all morning and later had to walk away as I was too focused on myself, as opposed to the market and on the brink on going on tilt. :( --- NE...

Sorry for the late post Shorted 10 cars live at 82.46 Out all at 80.46 (was away from the computer, had a resting order) Done for the day ... :D :p 6 red 15' bars in a row - many people getting burned buying the dips :(

Nice comeback, Kid :)

That wasn't stupid, imv the tape was saying higher (if I'd been scalping I would have gone long in the places you did), but euro was dropping regardless of what ES, etc. did. --- Coffee is over $2, so I guess we won't see RiskAddict around here today :p

I know, I remember your blotters, just curious. Thanks.

Blox, are you still forward testing or have you gone live? Thanks.

Yep, it's the euro/dollar.

IC, if you're going to trade long only and with a wider stop, you'll want to, at the very least, enter in pullbacks. Just my EUR 0.02

(I hope you mean trading :D) Yes, 1 +1 +1 CL on a (now sub-)10,000-ish account.

Unable to pull the trigger live. Entering the trade - way late - in sim to avoid revenge trading/overtrading - keeping myself busy knowing that the odds are not there anymore and to avoid chasing the market. Nice trade, is what I had in mind more or less (adding).

In 10 minutes: Leading indicators (not important) Philadelphia Fed Manufacturing** European (yes, we're people too :p) consumer confidence

sim repeating the same frustrating routine of not pulling the trigger at my levels :( :eek: long 82.18 expecting a pullback at 82.60 and then gunning 83.40 - provided data in 15 minutes is positive. If negative reverse. Stop still at .98 bid to add at .06 and filled avg .12...

Your daily friendly gap at 1174 ES Dec. Yes, it's another T-day!!! :p

If there's been one single print at 1172 your stop would have been triggered. Taking positions right before the numbers is, IMHO, akin to gambling (I don't mean it in a derogatory way). Good luck.

No Paladino-stuff, please... :D Lucrum was first so I guess is cleavage, but could you put awesome eyes in the backburner? Thank you, gorgeous.

(Yes, you're missing a bar: right-click on chart > Reload all historic data) Tools>Options>Strategies>ATM tab: depending on whether "Use last price for auto trail and auto breakeven" (last price as opposed to bid for longs and ask for shorts; i.e. "last price" trails more aggressively) is...
