    Had trouble with a feat of my spreadsheet so I didn't make the final adjusments that I usually do. Went for it anyways! Player the envelope a little tighter, got filled on my 3rd layer for the first time. 7 fills, all winners, 5 shorts, 2 longs. Average of 0.06 per share, 1200 shares total...

    You seem to envelope by 0.5 fix but I think most people envelope by a %. I envelope by between 0.7% and 1.2%. Depending on the futures. On flat days it's 0.9% both sides. I also have special adjusments for some stocks (when I get to know them).
