If volume keeps diminishing like this we could start seeing 5 handle intra day gaps in the ES. I am really hoping for a significant drop in January. Just to wake the markets up a little!! That 1066 Gap in the ES is outrageous and MUST be filled!!

I guess you could call it a jab but there's nothing wrong with what you are doing. Every trader at one point in their career (usually early on) has employed this strategy. The rare times I visit this thread you are averaging into shorts in a raging bull trend. This usually ends with a margin...

I believe you're referring to a margin call.

On the first gapfill of Christmas. my true chart said to me... Two more gaps to fill!!

Could this be it? 50% finally filled.

Didn't get the gap fill buffoonery I was calling for. No worries. Markets have been a bit strange lately. 7 Gaps in row for the ES!!!!!! My system definitely doesn't play well into that. I will not be posting everyday as most days are just a choppy mess. I will post on significant days and...

12/16 Gap fill during final hour today. Happy Holidays

Best ET thread EVER!! And its only been one page. Deco you seem like I damn interesting person. I want to drink your Kool-Aid. I will say that the most important character traits in trading are dedication, patience, and the ability to accept thousands of small defeats. Of course the second...

Nasty market. Hopefully volume and volatility return soon. The two major intraday reversals we saw today virtually guaranteed losses for my system. You can't force the market to do what you want/think it should do. I am proud of my discipline to execute according to my system rules even...

I NEVER add to a position. The decision of position size is made before the trade is entered. For this account now the positions are between one and 3 contracts. I know this leaves little room for error since this account is so small but if it does bust I will just add more funds. I am...

Different position sizes based on conditions.

Chop Chop. Today was faders paradise. light volume channel. Hopefully we get some more volatility soon. On another note found out something interesting. Ninja Trader gave my Windows 7 it's first blue screen of death. Apparently Windows 7 is not supported by Ninja Trader but the next version...

Open your broker platform. Type GS in the instrument field.

Lucky me. I go my account funded right before 3:00 EST. Just in time for some afternoon rally fun. Took two trades. One loser one small winner. The small winner came one tick from target which would have made the day profitable but that's the way it goes sometimes. -112.50 Account: 4,858.70

This is a journal where I will be trading my ES system exclusively and posting my account blotter at the end of the day. I have been trading futures full time for 2.5 years. It has been a journey with both many triumphs and failures... probably similar to what many experience on their path. I...

When he says riding the dragon I think he's referring to chystal meth. When he's asking if you have a drivers license he really means you are going to drive down to TJ to mule meth back to the states in your spare tire.

Wow. I just stumbled upon this thread!!! Almost 600 pages in a couple months!?!?! Why are you guys getting your heart rate up over this!?!? There is a 0% chance of this happening!! Now I know why I don't follow news anymore. If some real big shit that will affect you happens you...
