First dumbass, I was in the room in the morning, I heard whomever making call after call, and usually getting stopped out at BE or a loss. He kept saying how treacherous the trading was, but still and yet kept making one call after another. So, yep I left the room. Secondly, how the fuck do...

Just sat in on thetradingzone.com free paltalk room. My god, what shameless promotion. This igator guy spent seriously 30 minutes non-stop hyping the room. He was yacking so much about becoming a member that they totally missed the 7 point re-trace off the double top high. I thought I...

OK, let me repeat. I keep the minimum amount I need to trade the max # of contracts I wish, and the rest of my money is in the bank.

You are also paying about $1.00 per RT more than me. I've saved enough in commissions over the last 2-3 years to fully fund a new account in the event my current account suddenly went to zero because the FCM blew up.

To me, this is the perfect example of why I trade through an FCM that allows $500 margins. I keep the minimum amount I need to trade the max # of contracts I wish, and the rest of my money is in the bank. I've seen some on here tout 5K, 10K even 15K per contract in their account. It's not...

A. Velocity didn't lose money. VF customers lost money. VF is not taking the haircut, its customers are. B. Velocity did not lose its customer's money. Sentinel lost it. I question whether any VF customer has a cause of action against VF because of the actions of Sentinel. C. IMO...

IMO you are risking whatever the difference is between the cash that VF parked with Sentinel, and VF's proportionate share of the cash that will be generated from the liquidation of the assets Sentinel purchased with its customer's cash. Will that be 15-20%. I don't know, but I would say it is...

Does Velocity have any choice but to refuse to honor redemption requests? Their money appears to be frozen with Sentinel. You don't really think they are going to use their operating capital to honor redemptions do ya?

Customers' Pooled Segregated Accounts Most major Clearing Brokers, are Futures Commodities Merchants ("FCMs) and operate under CFTC regulations, which require that customers' monies are segregated into a “Customers’ Pooled Segregated Account” (the “Pooled Account”). This is a...

You first.

I haven't seen any rates plummeting. Have you?

Gross, I'm above $7,500. Net, just below. Trading much smaller size than usual, but taking more trades.

So, that's where they got the plot for the Wild Hogs movie.

Greater trading range for one.

Hmmm, for a while there I'd say it was 20/80 at best, but its nicely up off its lows. :p

The ridicule was about the messenger, not the message.

For those that traded the ES today and lost money. What kind of TA were you using? You needed a low fractal chart, say 2 min., or a volume chart for scalping.

If that is consistently happening to you, then you are mis-reading the market.

Oh, didn't know we got that low. I was looking at ES, not SP. :confused:

Nicely done Risk. How much longer on the DNT?
