    Scalping e-minis

    Just look at the first number in every line. The format is from IB and the 916 ( and the number behind) in every line is just there to confuse people (or mark to market or something ;-)) At the end 200 profit and 187.2 commis is correct.

    Scalping e-minis

    Ok. Makes sense to me. With my posting I did not want to suggest that I would recommend trading one ES contract with $3500 or even $1700. Even with $5k per contract I would use very tight stops (1-1.5 points).

    Scalping e-minis

    Profitseer, I think it is already a very good performance, if you can make 20 points net profit per month for years. But I can't follow your math. 1% of the inital margin would be $35 (0.7 points)and $17.8 (0.35 points) if you take an intraday margin. If you meant based on the total...

    I think if you have reached a certain size scalping will become impossible. The best aspect of scalping might be the consistency of having a profit (nearly) every day.

    Scalping e-minis

    Tampa Nice to hear, that there are guys out there who keep it simple and go for only a tiny piece of the action. If you can do this with increasing size, then you will make an excellent living. It might not be so interesting to talk about, but who cares if you make more money than everybody...

    Anyone trading the DJ Eurostoxx 50?

    Do you trade at EUREX? How fast is the feed for EUREX compared to IB quotes for the ESTX50? I am asking again, because i just signed up for a 14 day trial, and they do not offer EUREX in the free trial. Thanks.

    Anyone trading the DJ Eurostoxx 50?

    Thanks wild, I have looked at the price structure of e-signal before and came to the conclusion that it is more expensive. To get EUREX data you must take the e-signal futures package and then add $19 for the e-minis and EUREX. Total $148 on a monthly basis. Do you use e-signal for EUREX...

    Anyone trading the DJ Eurostoxx 50?

    Perhaps billtt is talkíng about a direct connection via a EUREX terminal. But i think as a private trader you have no chance to get one.:confused:

    Anyone trading the DJ Eurostoxx 50?

    http://www.stoploss.de/frames_menuemain.asp I use this service (Taipan realtime) and I pay 69€ a month for the EUREX package. However, this was a special, because the website says 89€ (20 for the software and 69 for the Eurex subscription). I think it is one of the cheapest and a decent...

    Anyone trading the DJ Eurostoxx 50?

    TrendFader, liquidity is always very good between 9:00 and 17:30 CET. Even if you want to play with a 100 lot:D On Monday I expect slightly less volume than on a "normal" day and a more narrow trading range.

    picture of a trader workstation on a tiolet.

    I always knew this is a nasty business where you really have to deal with a lot of bad moments. Maybe this guy has a custom made indicator which allows him to assess when it is relatively sure to wipe his ass. Or he has something like a nurse standing by to assist him :D

    The Evolution of an E-mini Trader

    ...and the freedom that the markets can provide. For me the most fascinating thing is the fact that you can make a lot of money by understanding the psychology of the crowd and of course your own. As a small trader you can take the money from the big institutional firms who need hours or...
