I wanted to start a thread just about this and found this one...:) I guess those who like to trade the emini Russell2000 are traders who love volatility on a somewhat wild index. Not as wild as the Dax or Hang Sang, but right below those. I was thinking of all those large traders who hold...

Well said. If you don't mind, I'd like to add something to complete the above concept. The times your trades are successful right away, you only win with a small size on. In fact, the common P&L of those who average down shows many small profitable trades with a few large losses here...

Interesting point here and I must say one of the golden rules of trading. I am an emini futures daytrader and I have a question out of curiosity: When you say small losses, how small do you mean? Given the nature of the markets, which tend to go up and down and provide very rare...

From South Florida to Italian Riviera... TS down across the Ocean I should say...:(

Wow, second time this week that TS freezes on me... What's going on fellas???

Well, I am glad I am not the only one having issues today. I found my data to be delayed by over a minute and certain charts wouldn't even load up. I shut down the platform now. If anyone has any news, please share in here. Thanks.

When I said it's late to join the Euro bulls and might be time to start contemplating giving the dollar some love, I didn't mean to call a top. It's impossible to call a top when a market is making new all-time highs day after day. However, I've carefully being following European economic...

I'm European too and I have a small part of my capital invested in US bonds. As soon as this parabolic upswing stops and stabilizes, I'll buy some more. This is a great opportunity to invest into US dollar assets at a very cheap price. For those who think the Euro will go to 1.50 and...

I actually believe all of the above is discounted in current prices. Everything has been pointing against the dollar recently, and nothing points against the Euro. The surprise side is the short side with so many people giving up on the dollar. I am not saying the trend is going to...

what if YM doesnt make it back up by the close?

do you guys believe YM will make it back by the close?

one of the few posts in here that finally makes sense.

no problem. i am just a little pissed now, i apologize if i sounded a bit grumpy.

thanks for the tip. thing is, NQ was the first contract available in my platform and didnt wanna waste time opening up ES. next time i'll use ES.

They are somewhat correlated, aren't they? Are you trying to sound like a smart ass like most posters here at elitetrader by the way? I am trying to hedge my short position and in terms of tick value i see nothing wrong buying NQ. I won't be the most perfect hedge, but I am doing this...

hopefully this damned index will go back up before the close... HOPEFULLY...

for those trading mini-dow, the best hedge is NQ which has the same tick value. I went long NQ to hedge my YM short... fuck the CBOT anyways... when are tehy gonna move their ass to CME???

what about bracket orders??? are those gonna get triggered???

this total bullshit. seriously, the CBOT should shut down and burn in flames.

Exactly.
