Entertain yourself? LOL it all makes sense now! Have fun while it lasts! :p :p :p

LOL.....What is the point of this thread? What a total waste of time. There are patterns because all you lot do the same thing while the guys that know what they're doing do the opposite. The majority will always do it, and so will those that really know what they're doing, hence why you...

here's my effort for today

Ahh that's more like it :) Very good So what sort of parameters do you use, as far as stopping out and targets you aim to get, do you just have a certain price where you think something is being done(or where size is) and if it goes through that's it you're out straight away for a tick or...

nice work. Why was the "intent"(however you figure that out) to be short on that run up? that looks like it was a fairly decent push up, so it was going back to the HOD....what happens when its an up trend and goes on to break to new highs like its done all year, or can you see when it has...

So you get 40 ticks instead of 15? Isn't that a good thing? Isn't it a point that it's the humans that have left, and its just the HFT that remain? Instead of HFT taking over. I remember even back as near as 2010 it was over twice as thick, was more like the T-note, now its 0-200 on most...

Good to have you back :) Will be interesting to see how you go. I sent you a PM btw. With the 6's, they obviously do their own thing? I would've thought they are just tracking spot and algos/computers are keeping it all in line so they wouldn't do their own thing? But obviously I guess they...

What do you mean by juice to be had? What makes you get in a trade on these? Is it that you have an expectation on where each should be and one is out of whack so you try to grab that? Or is it like an actual spread chart and you see that one has "bottomed out"? Trying to learn more...

What's that spread indicator from?

What do you mean by may need more math? You mean finding value? How do guys do that, I hear a lot about finding relative value or "fair" value, but everyone seems to do it a little differently....which then makes it not value(if they're all different?).

Yeah $850K for three incidents.....to a HFT firm....they probably pulled that out of their back pockets. Get the message across, make it $850m lol.

So how is it going over the last few days??.........or do you only post the good days? :p

How do you handle closes? As you can see...."Size" is everywhere.

agree with desktop22 here, just showing screenshots of a large bid or offer is of no use, I see them all the time but they pop up and disappear just as fast, surely you don't just enter short as soon as you see a big offer appear? do you front run it or wait to see if its real and then if it...

What will this do? Just make it so the big firms are the only ones who can afford to trade? Like outlawing guns.....just makes it so they're the only ones who have them, outlaws.

As much as I'd like to see HFT go away, I really can't see it happening. Most of these firms are in bed with the exchanges anyway, plus its computers, and that is the direction everything is heading. Since when has anything good happened for us small traders? It's all based around what the big...

Well why would everyone come here(or even become a trader) if they knew it couldn't be done? Obviously guys know it can be done otherwise we wouldn't be here. Can you explain what you look for when you scalp the 6E/A?

how about some explanation of what you look for? Bids/offers refreshing? size hitting the market but not going bid or offer? come on, don't be shy :p Why the 6's too? Why not the tnote or something? You can stop avoiding the questions now if you like ;) Yes okay it can be done, we get...

How long you been doing that FBGFMLSLNFDMDL? Bund seems to be getting crazier and crazier to me, it's so thin now, do you read the depth for scalping it? I had a look at the buxl as well but I thought the same thing, even thinner than the bund, would be pretty crazy.

and what if it runs away from you? you take a hit that is 2,3,4,5x the size of your winners? You would get raped if it pushes one way or the other? I would be careful about it on sim too, remember you have queue position in the live market, some sims can just fill you instantly when the...
