I'm curious too.. Why do you need to buy software?.. especially if you're limited with cash..

yes OldTRader I have posted this many times before and do still suffer from it... I've come up with the 1pt. as just an average daily number I feel I can achieve.. And what I do is use that 1 pt. to project possible earning potential (see spreadsheet attached).. I believe your statement...

Glad I'm not the only one.. Its taken me 3 or 4 years to minimize the emotions.. and I still have plenty of work to do on them. Good Luck Oz

I've thought about what I'd do if I ever started trading full time and I think I'd explain to her that she can't question me on a daily basis cause it would cause the exact fears/concerns that you are talking about.. this will probably be hard for them to understand. I would think maybe a...

Hey Kermit.. Thought about that too.. but those times when I didn't cash out at my price come floating back in my head telling me to take all the profit now before any of it is loss again.. Its that old ringing the cash register cliche.. feels so good till you see your position move...

I've found that setting a daily goal like I have has limited my earning potential. My goal for the long term is to average 1pt. out of the Mini Russel each day. I believe by doing this I'm putting limiting beliefs on my possible performance.. Today for example.. got short at 625.90...

Lefty, Can I ask how you edit your charts. I'm using Esignal now and can only type in the chart by saving it as a .bmp file.. You seem to be editing yours in a different application.

Thanks for the help Thunderdog.. Esignal offers a 30 day free trial so I took them up on it.. just had to pay $15 data fee.. I like the playback feature in Esignal.. lot of new things to look at .. my livecharts was the basic bare bones package...

Yeah.. I've noticed that too.. and there email tells me everything is okay.. I should be up and running but I'm not.. Anyone have a phone # on these people??

I also have found there to be a small delay between the charts and my order platform.. and you're right.. it sucks and is uncalled for if you ask me these people have the prettiest charts.. they just can't seem to get their data issues together

Thx Thunderdog, I tried Esignal once and didn't like the fact that I couldn't pull up the ES with RTH's only... and like you I found Quote.com's interfact to be much better also... How much does Esignal charge these days?? I may do a trial subscription with them..

I'm using LiveCharts.. it doesn't have that feature.. I need to look into another service I guess

if you don't mind.. are you using Live charts and what symbols?? I"m having trouble with ES, ER, EC & NQ

Anyone having technical problems with quote.com I swear these people.. don't even have a phone number for them.. and their email responses to my problems are all pre written responses.. I am about to move to another service.. they are definitely not he best in the business..

If this is a serious compliment .. Thank you.. Hydroblunt has it right though.. but maybe that'll change in time..

Anyone have an entry strategy they would like to share for opening price action like we've seen this morning when price breaks down and continues down without a retrace.. I find myself missing so many of these moves cause I don't have an entry criteria for it and I'm not sure how to get in to...

Hey Sundance, You are 100% correct.. I have switched to the Mini Russell though.. After looking back at today's action.. I noticed it was nothing but chop.. a 4 point range and some change on the ER... and I know to stay away from these type of days... Glad to hear about your...

I've been trading much better as of late.. Sat out for 2 weeks or so to re-evaluate my Plan and objectives.. Started trading again on 4/25/05.. and doing much better.. my biggest problem was not taking all trades in my Plan that I should have and not letting profits run properly.. but...

Hey Peter, Hope everything is going well. Just noticed this thread so haven't read it entirely.. Do you find T-Notes act similar to support/resistance as does the ES or ER??? I just started watching the ZN but I don't have any historical charts on it..

I haven't read the entire thread so not sure if someone has given you this advice already.. But that selloff that you are referring to was an exaggerated sell off.. and a lot of times the market will bounce back after these type selloffs and head in the oppositte direction. I personnally...
