Thank you for bringing up Optionstar.
Optionstar does provide realtime spread
risk graph analysis and many complicated
strategies such as calendars and butterlies.
Best of all, as you colorfully pointed out.. it is much
more affordable than OptionVue bringing
you free delayed datafeeds...
Optionstar can instantly calculate "what ifs"
spread risk graphs in streaming real time with
an interactive brokers acct, or free delayed.
No subscription fees whatsoever.. only a
one time charge of $299 for the software.

trying to follow your entry logic...
earlier you mentioned 656 or below..
you would go short..
since it touched 656.5.. you went long
on the support instead ?
how do you determine breakdown vs bounce ?
what stops and profit pts do you usually use ?
thanks

What do you mean by "good carry trade" ?
Are you swing trading these for several months ?
How do you determine the trend
and what stops do you usually use ?
Thanks
esu2
I trade in and out of currencies that are good carry trades, right now GBP,USD,AUD are good long carry...
hi rickshaw,
Just trying to understand the only
market I have not traded yet: forex..
Did you go long USD/CHF 18 months ago ?
If so, the long term chart shows
that is was 1.31 around 4 '04
It is still about 1.31
Thanks
esu2
when you are trading er2,
do you pay attention to the other indexes: ym, es, nq ?
For example, if er2 broke support or resistance,
do you look to see if the other indexes did the same 1st ?
thanks,
esu2
Instead of debating the study, let's
discuss how we can make money off
of this supposed anomoly if it does happen more
than not.. that the underlying price will
be "pushed" toward an even strike number
(maybe the strike with the biggest open interest)
on the 3rd friday of the month.

disclaimer, I am the developer
volente,
don't know if you are being serious or sarcastic to porgie
when you say you will post your system tonight with every rule.
I am looking forward to it as I have been trying to follow
your great trades these past weeks on this thread.
I honestly don't know how you seem to...
