1165 is my 50% to 50% level for my ratio trade, so I am looking at 16 points lower then 1181 for what I think the market will do in the next several months. October and November might be rough this year with a convergence of macro events.

when an order shows up on the tradestation matrix {like a pending "sell limit" profit target for a long position} isn't it suppose to have already been routed through the cme and an order # tag assigned----------or does tradestation just throw the little "sell limit" box up on your matrix while...

not worth it only trading one-----rather watch MAD MONEY--------hahahaha! the near friday close to sunday evening midnight rally worked for a couple -----------------es 1236 to 1239.

my problem with tradestation-------------- how can this happen? I place a long es trade for 1 contract at the same time with a xtrader platform right next to a tradestation matrix on a separate pc simultaneously. I then place a "sell limit" for 1 contract on the tradestation matrix for 1...

Hotcomm room ---------------- IOAMT, anyone spend time in this room? This is the room used by "Institute of Auction Market Theory". I might spend some time in this room tomorrow.

tt and trademaven may be doing something together for the future.......just a rumor at this point and I can't find a second source to confirm.............that would be very interesting! You would have the best trade platform {xtrader} mixed with some very good bid/ask analysis and volume tools...

excellent chart-------------thank you for posting!

Spend your initial time developing a system------------then when you have something that works you can develop a goal over time. When you have a system that can make a minimum of 4 ticks a day per month, then look at goals to advance your system. Goals are very system dependant and to just...

true-----------supply changes the oil pricing "mean" and refined product availability causes the short term moves in price away from the "mean". We have a situation where the mean is rising and there tends to be more events that cause pricing to keep spiking up from the mean----------not a good...

Every 30 day period of oil above 60 a barrel adds +.10 % to the cpi/ppi numbers-----------a prolonged period above the 60 level will start a dramatic upward trend to the cpi/ppi and that will get attention. I say 70 before years end------might just be a spike but I do think it will be broken.

crude oil will go down in price on attacks that are not direct to the oil fields or infrastructure of the oil producing industry. Just as oil dropped with the london bombings. As I stated with my posting in the other oil thread {that seems to have disappeared?}, china/india high gdp numbers...

I have the strategy runner set up through my friends trial period----------I will watch this Monday realtime. Great input-----------thank you.

Not necessarily----------If you were to start this trade and the market traded in a tight range or was choppy for several days then you would have the perfect situation. Your long and short side accounts would both be building up profits as the trading price stayed in lets say a 12 point range...

Yes------- China knows how to pick our top-----------hahahaha! :D

Vulture has it! The infamous 990----------hahaha! Gelber group trader is a Russian guy----- is that right?

Looks like the hedges took some of their profits {liquidity} from yesterday and are back in the oil market today-------- their only sure bet these days. Some bigger short GOOG positions cleared out on a nice call. I think they are still adding to the big GM short positions they have also...

there is a bit of confusion after today {china currency, fed speak, googly, bombings, bond market action, etc}. This is all good for the day before a Friday--------- volatility may take a peek.

me too----------mathematical ratio's! can't you see it? :)

do you ever see those posters that look like a very odd grouping of shapes and colors--------------you keep staring at it, then you suddenly see something very cool. Everyone else around you looking in frustration just can't seem to see it-----------that is an edge.

Hedge Funds scored some blows today, now they need oil to move again hard up. Institutions 27 -- Hedge Funds 3 with two quarters to go.
