Hi, Esignal is not giving me quotes for NQ or ES. I don't think the problem is with GLobex because I'm getting quotes through J-Trader. Anyone else having this problem? Thanks, Tbill

I'm not trying to be a "wise guy", but if you are not exaggerating about losing almost every day (as opposed to taking small wins and big losses), then you may be on to something. Look for a common thread (from analyzing the opposite of all your trades) and try that. Tbill

Never Mind-- I didn't notice that my windows time hadn't automatically changed Sunday. Tbill

Hi, My Esignal time is set at the old time ( 1hour behind). Is there something I am supposed to do, or is something wrong? Thanks, Tbill

E-Signal-I'm not happy I need to install Esignal on another computer. I called tech support and was told (recording) that it would be at least 10 minutes. At the 13 minute mark, I hear ringing so I think my wait is over. A rep gets on and evidently thinks I'm another customer he was...

Anyone know what causes the big move (on high volume) in the NZ around 10:55 CST. ? Tbill

Although I feel she is unfairly being singled out by the goverment, her " oral stop loss " story troubles me. When I was a broker years ago, a stop loss was always a written order that was GTC. Have things changed, or am I missing something? Tbill

I'm in the same situation. I feel that you are not a registered representative (always a qualifier for pro status) unless affiliated with a firm. The 2 year holding period is there to enable you to be a RR again , if desired Regards, Tbill

Hi, We must be using different systems. I use R2,R1, Pivot, S1,and S2. I thought he made an error because all his other points closely match mine. Regards, Tbill

nq: 1415 - 1422 - 1433 - 1440 - 1451 note: if my # is way off, please let me know, i'm easily distracted ;). 2nd note: i'm only trading fulltime for a few months and i barely keep myself in the green, so if anyone can offer insight on how to better use pivots, please let me know asap. tnx...

Hi, I would welcome opinions as to how many (few) points would you consider "too tight a stop" on NQ. Or how many points would "market noise" account for. Thanks, Tbill

Hi, My equity quotes are ok, but for at least 20 minutes now, my index quotes and futures NQ are updating in a sporadic manner. Thanks, Tbill

I take an unorthodox approach. I put all my effort into the entry and take all the emotion out of the exit. Trading NQ, I either make x points or lose x points. If I win 3 out of 5, I'm profitable. Tbill

Hi Afterburner, No offense taken. I brought it up in the context of being a bi- product of doing less trades (saving money) with the overall purpose of taking the emotion out of your premature exits. Good Luck, Tbill

Hi Afterburner, I trade NQ exclusively. I was curious as to how many points you allow yourself (loss) on the trade. I noticed on Trade 2 , it was 4 points against you. It seems like as many times you read the tape right, you read it wrong(frustrated, no confidence, etc. Obviously, that can...

Hi, Go to the CME web site-Daily Bulletin Link- Tbill1

FastTrader, I asked because you mentioned a price target that you could have reached "later in the day." How do you raise your trailing stops if you are not there?

FastTrader, How do you expect to maximize your profits if you have time restraints (your job) that force you to exit your trades?

to anyone from E-Signal: You take away the toll free # and encourage us to use E-mail-- I sent 2 E-mails to "Michael" Thursday morning and they are still unanswered. Is this normal turnaround for E-Signal?
