    creating a system that feels good

    the only ways that I know of to get good fills is by taking the bid/offer or loading the que with orders at many levels in an envelope around the current price range and canceling orders that don't need to be filled as the market approaches. Obviously the first works with the added cost of...

    creating a system that feels good

    I like the way you are headed. I would like to accomplish a similar feat. Most of my best performing systems don't feel good... Or they go through phases of good then terrible. Since I rarely can tell which phase is coming I find myself expecting the worst/ best at the most inopportune...

    Anyone in Aruba?

    I have never been to the Caymans. In contrast, Aruba is outside the hurricane belt, is very arid and there is very little beach front property for sale. The few villas that have oceanfront are in the 1-2 mil range also. Inland villas with pools landscaping etc are 1/2 that or less. It is very...
