Nice call! Do you have profit targets or do you just raise your stops and let the market take you out of the trade? If so, when do you decide to raise stops? (new support/resist lines?)

LOL!! :D :D

Check the post two above yours... Hey guys, PLEASE post questions and comments in the main thread otherwise this thread becomes very long and anyone wanting to track the monthly results gets bogged down reading alot of questions and answers. Thanks.

Me too :D I don't know where I came up with the 3.8 max loss at...damn I gotta quit writing these early a.m. posts! :p Results look real good for October, thanks for the info!

Are you accounting for stops?? Looking at the spreadsheet it looks like it is ignoring the rules put forth. For example, the day of the largest drawdown (in your spreadsheet) 5/12/2004 you state that the short signal was entered at 531.50 so the stop would be ruffly in the 535 area (long...

Hey Surfer, interesting question. Given that I am young, single, have no dependants and have a girlfriend who lives about 2000 miles away my answer is.....Hell Ya!! I wonder what provoked this question?? Are you planning on mentoring a team of dedicated traders to rule the markets?? If so...

I was thinking this was past/present. I liked Kim during the 9 1/2 weeks era. :)

copa8, I tried the internet based java that IB provides and it worked with no problems through internet cafes in Central America. The only thing you might have to do is download the latest java applet if the PC you are using doesn't have it (link available on IB website). Also I would...
