White Oak - South of the Boulevard - in the hills Yes, the area is very desirable but prices have got out of whack. Some owners trying to get 3.3 to 3.8 million for their homes in my area. Three years ago these residences were 1.2 to 1.8 million. December 2005 to January 2006 is when I...

Exactly right. I couldn't have said it better! Dave

Thanks Covert. That's exactly what I was looking for! Dave

What is the formula for hedging index futures? Let say I have 20 contracts of E-Mini Russell and I want to hedge with E-Mini SP contracts. How many contracts of ES are required? I know I have to account for the different Beta and volatility levels between indices, just looking for a...

Great link surfer. Is this something he just strated? Dave

There is a need for concern. Bin Ladens 9/11 strike was an attack to bring down the entire U.S. financial system thus crippling our country and destroying our way of life as we know it. It's purpose was NOT simply the collapse of the Twin Towers and the killing of some Americans, as some...

J_Medved, ES#F handles the rollover but the ensuing price spike adjustment (10 sp points) from 1257 Dec to 1267 Mar that entails, just throws my charts off a bit. Now that I know how E-signal processes their contract rollovers, I'll adjust for it in the future. Best Regards, Dave

You know esh6 and es#f appear a little different. I still can't get data beyond todays trade with esh6 (1500 tick chart). Thanks, Dave

Thanks. I owe you one! Dave Scott

On today's contract rollover I am unable to bring up a tick chart of ESH6 with data past yesterday. E-signal hasn't a clue as to what the problem is. Has anyone experienced this problem and have a suggestion? Thanks, Dave

I recently sold my entire trading-book collection, acquired over a twelve year period, on Amazon for roughly $8,000. Some books were quite rare and appreciated substantially. Funny thing is, as soon as I got rid of them all, my trading got substantially better. Go figure :confused...

Hi Coolweb, No disrespect intended, just some friendly advice. But this is exactly the stupid type of "shit-talk" confused wannabees say before they get ready to roll the dice in desperation, and shoot a wad of cash. There's simply no room for you to carry so much hubris on your...

Absolutely. Flexibility is crucial. you can never tell what the market will do and what can happen from day to day in the world --- i entered one short swing trade on 6/21 and had 6/8ths of that short swing trade still in play cover in less then an hour the day of the london bombing news...

I am in Billy's room ( IOAMT ) during the trading day and have read Macros posts.... specifically his "buy/sell program activity calls". His is a very good trader. And I define a trader not only as someone who is consistently profitable, but also someone who is a student of the market. This...

Jackbyrd, No, I have not seen Macro trade (I would like to!!)and yes I made an indirect reference about him and some other traders here on ET. The trader I witnessed was located in the Los Angeles area where I reside. And as my previous post indicated , their approaches though not exactly...

Personally I don't like the trade either (swing trade)and being long from 1239 would have been a preferable approach than being short 1239. But who knows the future trade of any instrument. What I prefer to glean while reading Macro's posts is his ability to think outside the box. His...

I especially like your book #7. This is the most valuable book listed. I learned vascular surgery in one weekend !!! My wife hates when I meander into the kithen looking for some new utensils to practice with!!! (7) High Probability trading (Hardcover) "How To Make Money Performing...

Hi Macro, Suppose you get the other 1/8 off at 1251.00 and the market consolidates at this level for a while then pushes through 1271.00 on volume. Will you take yourself out or will you scale it up? Thanks, Dave
