I set up a room at TradingRooms.com. You can find it under TradingRooms Directory / Trading Rooms / Community Trading Rooms / Intraday Oil Futures. When you first enter, it may rudely state "TradingRoom Manager has revoked your permission to speak". Please note that this is nothing that I...

The first day was lightly attended, but I think it was worthwhile. I looked at the alternatives noted above, and tradingrooms.com looks like the best of the three. It's easy to use and has a chartpost feature, plus some other cool things. Another option is AOL IM, which I think would allow...

I am finding it a little hard to watch the charts and the chat.

Let's try the ET room as a first measure. If we find it lacking in a particular way, then we should talk about possible alternatives. I just set it up. It's called "CL Chat". I accidentally started two with that name; ignore the one with a lock next to the name. Regards,

I'm really happy with NinjaTrader.

I said that one could definitely do it with futures. A skilled, high-frequency intraday trader (i.e., not holding overnight) can generate that kind of return while controlling his risk on each trade. Respectfully, what can be done and what is prudent to do are different questions, and just...

P.S. If you think it's gambling that will get you that return, then it will be gambling if you try. You will know when you can generate that level of return without gambling.

Hi. It's definitely possible (with futures or options, not stocks), but their software has nothing to do with it. It's advertising hyperbole. It's just a tool -- charting software and a data feed. You still need to bring the skills to succeed. Regards,

How was it?

Hi, guys. I'm going to try to be there, but I can't say for sure. Sounds like it will be a good time. Regards,

I know the live chat feature rarely gets used for anything other than an extension of the chit-chat forum, but would any of you CL regulars be interested in starting one? I've never actually done a live chat before, so I don't know whether it's the type of thing that quickly gets tedious...

Thanks. I usually call them "burps", but "flutters" seemed a little clearer. Today is the kind of day one could get f****d on the end of day volatility. I might stand aside and call it a day. Any calls as to whether the 2:00 break will be up or down (above 85, below 25)?

I generally try to avoid entering into a still market. If I want to go long I will wait for one of those little 2-3 point flutters to the downside. They almost always happen. It seems a little safer to smack the crocodile on the nose when it's leaping at me rather than reaching into the...

Today has been pretty choppy. Do the positions then go in your favor or continue to go against you? If it's the former then you might be expecting unrealistically small drawdowns. If it's the latter then your problem is not your entry.

I've been working on an ATS for a few months. The preliminary results have met my expectations, but I feel like I need input from another person to help keep the process moving forward. I'm considering looking for a partner, but I have strong reservations. I could hire the help I need (a...

Is this NinjaScript?

There it is...

Pretty quiet for 1:30-2:00... Maybe folks are starting their vacations early.

I wasn't necessarily thinking of equity traders. I only trade futures, and I have plenty of leverage. It makes sense to the extent that one would like a social atmosphere in which to work rather than his own home, as well as sharing costs of office space, top-notch internet connection...
