yes 2 years is correct------- this is possible but extremely few do this because of the battle with themselves--------this is why there are not es millionaire traders all around. i do think in the next few years there will be a dramatic increase in futures trader millionaires due to...

yes this is exactly correct if you have a very static cost basis adjustment with the new positions added in relation to the current traded price level. what i should add, is that the position must generate revenue at a greater pace then the negatives of the price movement against the...

thurdays have been the only good paydays for the hedgies lately in the equities and futures {other then oil} markets

getting the one point a day automated is very possible-------getting one point a day "hand trading" is a whole different story. hand trading includes your emotions fighting any system you have-------guess who usually wins---not your great system. if you can create discipline levels to follow...

thurdays---------fed meeting notes, london bombing day, etc thurdays have been the only days with some volatility lately

nononsense-----------the xtrader platform has never given me any issues like this, and if you do a certain amount of size monthly you can have the platform free {if interested, pm me and I will tell you who can give you a great deal}. the 500 dollar fee with xtrader IS...

today was outstanding as well {well actually starting from the close at the highs of the day yesterday 1248 es level-------- that was a very clean short set-up as the overnight period showed weakness very early on}.

buy the rumor, SELL the news------- interest rate cut confirms weakness in the sagging european economy, thus european market had their second day of selling yesterday.

institutions 37 --- hedgies 16 wow------hedges scored a TD last night {kept the 1248 breakout area from holding until the morning}. The oil profits from yesterday were put to work last night--------jammed the futures for a TD. still the third quarter :)

lack of superior platform performance costs more per month then $500 when autoscalping.

this has nothing to do with bush, this is a war of liquidity you are watching before your eyes. institutions 37 ---- hedges 9 still in the third quarter *side note---hedgies cashed out some big oil profits today------where will they add to their core equity short positions...

EqtTrdr---------- i have already bet with the hedgies and the over, you know the late 4th quarter comeback thing--------gotta love the dog in this contest! :)

institutions with their new monthly liquidity additions were "program buying" their azz's off today-------take a look at the 5 minute nyse tick chart from today------------lots of good scalp long signals from all the pumping. institutions had the extra liquidity today to take additional...

yes i agree------that was a very nice day----------nice up and down gyrations/waves.

use transact's platform if you want something free and good--------if you want great feed with trademaven then use it through transact also for about $50/month {transact is a Futures Commissioning Merchant-----the best way to go---not through an Independent Broker}.

to a point I agree-----in my situation for the ratio trade i would say 5% is discretionary on a quarterly basis------it is not very often that I do this trade manually. believe me the profit power is in the repetition of buy/sells and covers. an intraday only system similar to this on the...

xtrader with c++ program to api is superior imo for all the rapid fire trading----------or what I would call quick scalps. like nyse tick hits XXX {a certain number} then enter es at market for 2 ticks profit----------------------these kind of programs are the best on xtrader by far.

kubilai---- yes somewhat, i stopped the short covers more so to see if my short side could freefall a bit more if events had degraded. that day i was able to cover many shorts at more then 1 point of profit, and i was able to start accumulating the longs at a lower price---------that day my...

daurd-----------yes that is somewhat correct------- http://www.ttrader.com/mycharts/display.php?p=35208&u=macroevent&a=MacroEvent&id=1511 the upper left hand text at 1217 should say "long sell-to-cover" minute by minute BUYS and SELLS and this is only at the even price levels-----...

kubilai-----------I only have long accumulation orders allowed down from the current trading price level within a period of parameters. if price drops many points in a very short period of time the long side accumulating stops-------there is also some controls on the short covering. if...
