can offer any insight as to how you quantify/judge bid/ask spread?

Pekelo, Thanks for the update on the markets. Steelers didn't do so well against my iggles, tho :p

OK thanks Pekelo

Pekelo, You posted url for ADU day the other day, but it has nothing about step down day. lastt time we had one didn't you say buy the close and hold until 10:00am following day? worked out didn't it? I looked at chart, 1076 (as a bottom) jumps off page at me.

Specterx, day's not over. If vote fails, could go visit 1136.

I have to take the time to express this thought: you couldn't spin through the dial this weekend without running into constant coverage of this bailout package (call it whatever you want). the news of the past week, the bailout, the near failure of Wachovia, Wamu, LEH, Fannie, Freddie...

wow, don't know what to tell you. close should be 16:15 (4:15pm east coast) some people use the 4:00 close so there is a sync with the cash market Are you sure there isn't some sort of parameters page for the calculation in your software, some sort of an input to define when the close...

verdo, I just checked mypivots.com and they show Pivot as 1194.50. mypivots uses 24 hour high and 24 hour low for calculation. 1190.50 is the pivot based on the regular trading hours. 24 globex H = 1210.25 L=1180.25 RTH session H=1199.00 L=1180.25 I run both, using woodie's...

Thanks, Pekelo, I have another account at IB, but I did not have SPX in the list of tickers because I use Trade Station for charts, IB for trades. I'll just stick SPX cash ticker into the IB list.

Thanks, Trade station is having data delivery problems

can someone please quote me SPX cash

ammo, 1215 is 50% retracement of the range for the week. one full extension of yesterday's RTH range would be ES 1217.75

good

those bars look pretty big to me.

Chuck, you have to have a perspective of recent price action (to the left of the chart). You have to be able to recognize some basic chart realities. Let's face it, this is just a trend following system, you need a trend to make it work. I looked at the chart of the trade quoted above...

exactly

that makes sense to me, too. Unfortunately, many times, what makes good rational sense might not translate into price action. I am assuming any move above 1223 would be a bullish short-term signal. with upside as you have mentioned 1300-1320. I guess at 1306-1314. on way up stutter at...

any news readers out there see anything that coincided with recent weakness?

Now that's some clarification! TY

point of clarification ammo, don't you mean low of 9/05 (as opposed to posted 9/25). But if you do know the low for tomorrow (9/25) can you please tell me....or... are you saying that it will be 1173? almost anything seems possible in this market.
