    Determining optimal # of contracts to buy when daytrading emini S&P 500

    You would risk 35% of your account on one trade? 7 * 50 = 350 * 10 = $3500? Would be best not to trade ES (IMO) without $50,000. But I have already been in a thread like this and there is no winner. So GL

    Logging, tracking, organizing your testing

    I wouldn't call IB's data, "data", more or less a snapshot.

    Biggest Squeeze in history is looming

    I was thinking close to the same thing. A close below yesterdays open would concern me, but not surprise me. IMO you are buying at a discount currently. We had to seriously test the 200 Daily MA at some point in this rally. I am guessing 1350 on SP500 this year then 1-2 years of non...

    how far back does data go? any recommendations?

    No, Sierra does not go back that far. You will most likely need to purchase the .csv files from another vendor if you want historical data. If I remember correctly CQG has an extensive historical data farm. I would start there first. GL

    Is this ethical and how does it differ from what Goldman did?

    Unless we clear every Senator and every Rep. in Congress this shit will never change. Do yourself a favor and never vote Democrat or Republican ever again. Until then you are just hindering us from prospering. I mean that in the best way. 85% of Americans base their decisions on...

    What do you mean by manual? How have you entered your orders? By pen and paper just looking at the information, or...? If not what software have you been using to SIM this? What timeframe?

    What or Who is Driving up Prices?

    This rally has been fueled by "smart bears" all thinking they know a market top when they see one. If we know that the market is forward looking 6-18 months IMO we are most likely fairly valued. I am guessing though we push 1300-1350 on SP, then go rangebound within a 150-250 point range for a...

    Daytrading quickly becomes a bullsh*t job, and as such people justify it?

    Your last paragraph is quite laughable.
