    IncreaseNow's "Sell/Short" Futures Journal

    ES and NQ moving on Saturday

    They said Globex was doing the testing, not NT. This might explain why TF didn't have the Sat data.

    ES and NQ moving on Saturday

    interesting that it's also on TT feed . . . TF is the only instrument I saw without Sat data, so maybe it's a CME thing

    When I received mine via postal from RCG this year, the envelope it came in when wasn't even sealed.

    CL Redux

    You're not alone -- if you check the NT forums, you'll see others reporting the same problem. Reloading the data, repairing the DB, and standard data "fixes" don't make these phantom bars go away. NT is saying it's Zen's fault. There's no way I know of to remove just the saturday bars...

If she throws a fit, take an advance on your future winnings and book a trip for two to Maui. She'll quickly forgive you and you'll be rested and ready to go for your first...

    IncreaseNow's "Sell/Short" Futures Journal

    Increase, it appears as if your journal has turned from people willing to help you to people bashing you. I can't see how continuing this journal will lead to anything other than confusion and frustration. I'll leave you with this: it's okay to monitor 2 or 3 different instruments if you...

    why Corn, Soybeans & Wheat are great to daytrade...

    The most recent CME report shows the volume for corn to much higher than soybeans or wheat. What am I missing? http://www.cmegroup.com/daily_bulletin/preliminary_voi/VOIREPORT.pdf

    A trading plan is mostly irrelevant when you are trying to scalp these instruments for 3 ticks with a 10 tick stop.

    Rangel has decided to step down as of tonight: http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local-beat/Rangel-Giving-Up-the-Gavel-86054087.html I personally am not too worried about Stark taking over. Yes it would be a step in the wrong direction, but it does not mean a ftt bill would suddenly overcome...

    IncreaseNow's "Sell/Short" Futures Journal

    Yo Increase, you got a lot of traders willing to help you out -- a rarity on ET. I would print out and re-read what they offering to you. Since you are only using 5 min bars with no indicators, you may benefit from the Al Brooks book if you don't already own it (only recommended in small...
