Your vwap's spot on (as long as mine is too) :)

If 92 holds I think we might continue up. A short target of 88 would be wiser at moment though.

I don't use time based charts.

Just hovering below, as I type. I would always wait for a break and retest though. Lunchtime near and my prediction would we oscillate untill a possible break in the afternoon?

Oh, I think I've got you. You were trading the bounce off of vwap? My vwap was around 94.75 and it did bounce up to the exact midpoint pivot of yesterday's range at 97.50. You entered after the bounce and when it had pushed through (on my chart type, anyway)?

We live and we learn, to quote the cliche. I missed the protracted sell-off into the close yesterday. Gotta be like a hawk in this game. That double top today around the 2201 pivot was a strong signal we were likely to test the lows. Good trading.

The volume delta has been to the downside for the last hour and this after a significant trendline break yesterday. Added to this a two point stop is, I fear, too small. You also entered long after a test and break below VWAP. If you're not looking at volume, vwap or trendlines then what are you...

I urge you to take this advice. Also, if you open an account with a few k and start chucking it about in the futures market, you will lose it. Low leverage is the key for starters and related to this and how you are capitalised is the time frame you'll end up trading. If you think scalping a...

'Get Stretched'

Sure is a lot of defensive sarcasm flying this way! Makes you wonder why.:p Well, I'm just bashing out ideas, trying to find a thread that could be realistically pusued. It's all academic perhaps but interesting just the same. I wouldn't say trying to gain an advantage through working with...

we're all trading with huge disadvantages, Anyone who thinks otherwise is deluded. Size and technology do matter. Retail futures is becomimg a cat and mouse game and we know who the mice are.

Okay, thoughts on this: It is a pooled fund of independent, higher frequency traders that need the lowest fees and the best infastructure. The first stage is one of soliciting interest from prospective members. How many? What requirements were? Next, a consultation on what platform...

Kept in the dark (cupboard), taken out, pumped up then f*@#%d:D

By 'dummies' I presume you mean the blow up variety:)

I understand. Thank you.

Don't know the legalities. It's been suggested not if it was proven that the intent was to 'manipulate' the market in some way. However, the whole area is grey and we all know the realities of the market. It probably comes down to legal speak and definitions like so much else in life. As far as...

Don't no what you're insinuating. I'm a small retail futures trader like tons of others. Easy pickings for the those with superior technology and firepower you coukld say.:)

Sifan, I'm just angling for ideas. I woke up one morning and it popped into my head. I think as joint owners profits will always be greater. Remember it would be mainly experienced traders pooling ideas and resources. There are some highly skilled and experienced guys out there. Who knows what...

A fund would pay very little in comparison. This would be a pooled resources co-operative that would operate for it's members, who are the collective owners. They would not be clients. All profits would go to it's members and depend on their participation size. It would be (I understand the...

Yes, good point, you could very well be targeted. Not sure how they would co-ordinate and achieve this together though. I suppose it points to limitdown's non ecn and anonymous market presence advice. Do you think the banks have access to 'level 3'-stop placement - or do you think it's more...
