    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    I am hopeless. I have been using the combined xl for several days without realizing I was not seeing the whole thing. Jeez. Anyhow, is there some way to reduce the size of the excel workspace without changing my resolution? I quit live trading shortly after ten as I have a disease called PP...

    Another Master bites the dust

    I read that he made a lot of tactical descisions based on the recommendations of an astrolger. Thought he could solve his problem with the Jews by wiping them out. I would say he was a moron.

    Most difficult markets to manipulate

    ES between 9:30 - 11:30 is my preference. When the volume slows down the big boys come out to play but I dont think anyone can control the mornings.

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    Thats very interesting Mak. I had not thought about approaching it like that. If it comes back through the third time you exit and start over again?

    IB developers: are you idiots?

    Why would you upgrade before you have to? I never upgrade until Buttontrader tells me I have to and they have checked everything out.

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    Well my weekend aha turned into an ahell. I did some bar by bar yesterday and today on sim mode with less than stellar results. It is obvious that you cannot use IF1, IF2 and APA in isolation. They must be accompanied by the rest of the package. Like a lot of other things it works well when the...

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    I dont mind being called an "edger". It pays the bills. There is a very thin line between edge trading and what Jack teaches. Most of my entries will coincide with an ftt or a rtl bounce. It all fits together quite nicely. The volume bounce you see when the bar changes does not reflect buying...

    breakouts, pullbacks and other

    It changes all the time. Breakouts on an itraday basis have been working pretty well for me lately while the pullbacks have been harder. Go figure.

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    What I really like about it is the pure visual aspect of it. I got to where I could do prv fair with the rays but was never really able to monitor sq/str for long. Mak has made it easy to do both and I am starting to make some connections. This last reversal off the low was a pretty good...

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    Dan did you go back in to make sure dde was enabled ? Perhaps the upgrade overwrote it. Disregard. I didnt read your post correctly. p.p.s. I never upgrade tws until Im forced too. Maybe you could go back to the previous build.

    Best US State to Trade from?

    When I was a boy we did our vacations at Orcas Island. Puget Sound is one of my favorite places in the world.

    Best US State to Trade from?

    Are you serious? What is your annual income? If your making so much that taxes dont concern you, congratulations. You can still spend six months at places you like wherever you establish residence.

    Best US State to Trade from?

    You might consider one with no state income tax. Seven states have no state income tax: Alaska, Florida, Nevada, South Dakota, Texas, Washington and Wyoming. Two others, New Hampshire and Tennessee, tax only dividend and interest income.

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    Personally I dont see a whole lot of upside to the Dow but this is why I love daytrading on a 5 minute chart, I dont have to worry about it. Sometimes I feel like cat. Im just sitting here where no one can see me, waiting...........:) p.s. Of course some days we go hungry.:D

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    lol. He probably does that many before noon. I washed out of the rocket but did not reverse as per my plan. I just cant seem to get out of my edger mentality. If I had had some coin to play with I probably would have tried it.

    Squawk

    a MrMarket is in second place in the Squawk Box stock contest. Is that ET's MrMarket? It must not be or he would already be on here letting us know about it.:)

    My dilemma - too good to be true? How long can I last?

    You dont know? You dont track your trades?

    Which one is feeling worse?

    What really depresses me is doing something stupid, something not in my plan. After 5+ years I still do it occasionally.
