    ES to 1181.25 by September?

    T Gregg I agree... I thought that the bombings would trigger the eventual closure to that very gap... I think the market will need the reminder that intrest rate will continue to climb... dollar had to fall... and oil has to keep moving forward. As macro states... a lot of elements have...

    Trader P/L 2005

    Kicking, I am a futures trader but I have used the Volume Oscillator indicator on TS sucessfully for some 5 years. Here is how I use it and it may be a great way of knowing which stock to trade. On a 60 minute bar, set the speed at 1 and 2. You want the fastest moving thing you can...

    Trader P/L 2005

    kicking, try not trading in the AM at all... I fact... try trading in the PM, say in the last 1.5 hours of trading. If you trade some big names than that is when 'smart' money starts buying or selling. In the AM you are in the loop with 'dumb' money which is very volitile due to...

    Is this it?

    Is this a short term (weeks) top? I am short the SP from 1235.25 from my automated trading but my guts telling me the market didn't 'try' hard enough to really break out. I also was hoping for a lower aftermarket... so far we are down a .50 on the Globex at 12:10. What do you 'see'...

    Drawdowns

    sKaLpZ yours is a tough business... with no volume indications it is tough to tell what is noise, what is reaction, and what is a real move. I don't know how you do it as i personally would be lost without volume indications to take only appropriate entries. It seems a volitility stop...

    Drawdowns

    illiquid just goes to show words can have different meanings to different people... I for one thought you gave away a 'trade secret' when you said concentrate on the entries and then stops will make sense. Too many people put on trades 'hoping' that that trade will be huge. And then...

    Ebbers 30 years

    oh so slavery behind bars is a far better idea? sure their paid for .60 an hour but you are here on this earth one time around and if you have skills that could help in one way or the other... why not utilize it? Just ask the white collar prisioners... do you want to mop the floor...

    Ebbers 30 years

    I agree with many of you guys... putting an otherwise smart businessman away for 30 years costs us even more money in tax dollars put him to work for the government... pay him next to nothing... but utilize his brains to make the prison system work better or SEC, or any government agency

    :D do drink at all... but bkk's idea is what sit well with me... people like bernie, or martha... sure they were trying to be smart and beat the system... maybe they should be forced to work for the other side... forced to do good. on the other hand tolerance for violent crimes or...

    Ebbers 30 years

    I'm not sure if prison is the best place for this guy. Evil people rarely find the time to give back to society... I personally think he chased performance... like so many of us do with our trading. Albiet we did not end up losing 11 billion... I think you have to really take the value...
