    This drives me crazy

    This might explain his stability a little better. This is his recommendation on IB in the broker section: * No advance notification on policy changes. * Terrible attitude, "It's all your fault". * Not sure about the security of its trade platform, electric content delivery, and privancy...

    40yo's new career or bust

    Many of the traders on this board are discretionary and don't believe that system trading works, so expect skepticism from more than half the people here. You appear to have everything nailed except the emotional part of trading. Can't be sure of that one until you are actually trading...

    What's S&P Gonna Do Tomorrow?

    October 31st window dressing says up til end of month, but logic says down. If anyone knew for sure, the market would have to change to make them wrong. :)

    Question about stupid, stupid Excel

    Yes, that should solve your problem. The "" creates a null cell that will give you a blank plot if set correctly in the options.

    Question about stupid, stupid Excel

    Have you tried an if/then statement and include the error #'s to check against? Then if it is in error, use the previous cells value as next plot (or something). Syntax ERROR.TYPE(error_val) Error_val is the error value whose identifying number you want to find. Although error_val...

    Emini trading increment

    The bottom line is the "Man in the Middle" is unnecessary. They are not responsible for Size, their clients are, and volume will exist without them.

    Going down with the ship ...

    Good job Aphie, that's how the Pro's do it. You should go for millionaire status and mortgage your parents house as well. :D You think you'll be able to hold on if your puts are in the money for any length of time? I predict you sell at breakeven or take a big loss, due to natural human...

    Interesting battle at the Pivot today

    The Pit appeared to be holding the line on the ES pivot of 887.75, with no 30 min. bars closing above it. Who are these rabbid buyers that are fighting logic here? We should sell down unless there's really good news, but we aren't because someone keeps driving the indexes up without success...

    afternoon...

    It really tried to sell off early but those buyers were like pitbulls. Interesting to know who is so anxious to buy at these highs, but it just reinforces the fact that you should trade what you see, not what you think. Once it got started, the domino short covering effect probably went into...

    Aphie's REAL Trading Journal

    You picked an atypical market to trade the last two days. So you can't draw any long term conclusions from it. Your discipline could use some work though.

    Something Fishy With This Market?

    I know we were severely oversold until the recent rebound, but doesn't this market look a little artificial? We sell off on the S&P below a critical support point (875), and all of a sudden a wave of buyers come in and drive the market up without stopping. We then get all these after hour pops...
