YUP, I did the same at 1125.50 Good luck to YOU!!:D

Anyone know why the S&P dropped about 15 points on the e mini between 3:30 and 4 oclock CST?

Thanks. Actually I have created a few signals that have been working for me (so far). My big hold back has been to sit and wait for the trade to come to me. I just put a post-it note to my main monitor that reads "ALL TRADES NEED TO BE TESTED". Meaning that I am not allowing myself to...

My new signal that I call "WILLIAM" signaled a short at the close for SBUX (see last nights post on this tread) I just sold off my last 100 shares of 400 for a total profit of about $127( less commissions.) Its nice to have an "UP" day after getting kicked in the nuts. While todays profit...

Well since were sharing here is the QUICK version for me today. Covered my short at close of AU for a gain of 1.64 share ( that one was nice) BUT only 100 shares for about $160 pop Lost about $950 in the Emini rollarcoaster. ( my head is still spinning. I can't belive how many back and...

That was me all day, At least the part about being slow when I should have been fast and fast when I should of gone to the bathroom. I would like to thank the posters on this thread as it helps not to feel totally stupid when at the end of the day you have a lot less money then when you...

Today was one of those days when just about every trade I made with the E mini went wrong. As I reflect as to the correct moves and the incorrect moves I wonder how others (besides those on the opposite side of my trades ) made out in a market like today. Maybe some tips?? Thanks

This is why I LOVE elitetrader!!!!:) Thanks very MUCH!!!

I am currently using quote.com and I dont see where I can have the e mini etc. charts for after hours trading. Any services out there that offer it?

MACD, Please let me know as well the name of the firm your with. Thanks in advance

As long as its the opposite side of my trades this month:D :D :D BUT watch out next month!!!

I asked IB via the online chat and they acted like it was a stupid question. They very clearly pointed out that 4 to1 is for intraday only (I did ask the same thing a couple of different ways) Sure would like to know for sure....

Can I find out the name of the company your leaving, and who to talk to about getting your old job??? Hey I will even kick in a few C-notes for an introduction.:) All kidding aside I wish you the best of luck. I am a business owner who trades (retail level) and its the best part of my day!!

Now that WAS funny!!:D Really like your signature line trdmac as I loved the movie Glen Gary Glen Ross!!! By the way, Whats wrong with a quick scalp??:cool: :p

One of my favorites is doing the office secretary on my desk ( while still watching CNBC ):p

Sellinrich, NEVER EVER play the field( Its like placing market orders with ETrade) . ALWAYS bet the don't pass and take the odds!! ( Its like shorting at the high of the day) As far as paying for the hotel and trip, WHY NOT ask these questions?? AND what better place to ask?? I like...

It appears to me that their IS a clear distinction between "retail" and "pro". If nothing else I have had to take no test to trade with a 4 to 1 margin rate. What I would like to do is STAY in my office and trade and do so with a 10 to 1 or higher margin rate. As well as be able to carry...

Anything and everything I guess:) Mostly I want to know if I DON'T join bright will I feel that I received more than a recruitment speech?? Will I gain enough to payback the cost of hotel and Jet ticket as well?? I know that someone else not knowing about me can't truly answer...

In all fairness everytime I call realtick they answer the phone and are helpful. I used Datek and the cost for the "software" is free. Now I am paying $250 a month. I also use Quote.com and Stock watch Pro for screening. To answer your question. 1. I don't like how often (at least...

I am currently retail and thinking about taking the "7" exam. I ordered the books and study materials from amazon.com and should have them in about a week. I feel that even if I don't go "pro" I have everything to gain and nothing to lose by reading some more While I have traded for many...
