    Down Again

    has been sporadically up and down for me today -- it's up at the moment. I'm in Southern California -- I wonder if the problem is geographic-related. Where are you guys??

    Pivots Working Nicely

    Agreed -- and R1 very close to yesterday's high. Was long from the AM and jumped out w/ nice gain as spoos approached the 992 level.

    Buzzy and Jesse...

    Just finished reading Pit Bull and have read Reminiscenses countless times. There really is one central theme to being a successful trader -- lay off when there's no real edge and go completely "balls to the wall" when the odds are in your favor. The part in Pit Bull when Buzzy was trading all...

    A Comment On Intraday Charts

    The 5-minute is great for entries and exits (been using it for years), however a longer term chart is essential to determine trend. I always ("almost always") trade in the direction of the 15 or 30 minute chart (using ema's and MACD).

    Biggest losing day of the year today...

    ... it may help to brush up on the various trading vehicles -- The YM and the QQQ are a tad different. Your post is almost like saying, "What?? I thought September Cotton was really moving today. I'm a newbie -- I just don't understand:eek: " dog

    Biggest losing day of the year today...

    100% to ISLD. I've been unable to find ECN marketshare data on the q's ever since ISLD "closed the book" on ETF's. It's been my experience though, that ISLD still provides the greatest liquidity on ETF's.

    Biggest losing day of the year today...

    Yes, we did... and I believe my post was entitled something like "stay away from the chop." -- (which I did)! That's why I'm so disgusted w/ myself today. I don't usually participate in the wishy-washy sh*t.

    Biggest losing day of the year today...

    $12,000. My win/loss percentage has improved to about 65-70% this year since I've backed off on discretionary trades that don't fall w/in my system parameters. Most of my trades today DID NOT fall w/in the parameters, and I tried to force something to happen (very, very much a rookie mistake)...

    Biggest losing day of the year today...

    Wow. ~ -$6,000 on the day today. Had been in the green 18 of the last 20 sessions, but today certainly cut into the recent gains. One of my old demons surfaced today: "the trendless chop." Some days you know the trend is weak, yet you tell yourself that it'll break out any minute. This...

    What are the going rates for new traders?

    Better yet -- I think writing a book for new traders is in order! You could do a collaboration with Scientist. Come on man -- get with the program!! ... Everybody's doing it:p :p :p Between trades, I'm actually writing several books: 1. Atom-Splitting for Dummies 2. Clone Farm...
