    Questions for experienced ES daytraders?

    Don't get wrong, I do understand what he is trying to do with his teaching, and absolutely, losses are part of the game. But it just doesn't add up for me. I simply do not believe that he would be moving 500 lots at one time, and now, dicking around with a little prop firm. He could have...

    NQ Paper Trade Journal

    In my opinion, you simply cannot ignore the NQ or the ES when trading either of these 2. If you look at enough examples, you will see an incredible amount of instances where you cannot explain why prices turns at a certain level when looking only at the one instrument, but when you look at the...

    Questions for experienced ES daytraders?

    LOL... best according to who? From what I can see after watching many many of his videos, he never talks about his own trades, the trades in SIM that he took mostly didn't work out, he shows trades with 1 or 2 lots, saying its to better demonstrate how a new trader should trade and then gloats...

    Questions for experienced ES daytraders?

    Precisely. The minute you find something doesn't work all that often, or move in a certain way, you can more than likely figure out a profitable strategy from doing the opposite.

    opinions on IB Level 2

    Ever since I started using their Historical Market Depth Graph feature in Sierra Charts, I too was curious about the accuracy. I first learned about this feature through Bookmap. Anyway, long story short, I've viewed videos from Bookmap, and hence seen their charts, and then compared to the...

    Questions for experienced ES daytraders?

    I'm not surprised nobody has come forward. The OP after all hasn't been all that nice. There is simply no incentive for anyone to come forward after all. But the fact that he wants to focus on one instrument, and only talk to traders who are actually taking trades for real is a worthy...

    Questions for experienced ES daytraders?

    I firmly disagree. Maybe for the 1 lot trader who needs a huge range in order to capture 4 points and hence $200, then this might be the case (ie. they are jumping around looking for anything that moves). For the traders trading size, 20+ contracts, who have experience trading both a tight...

    Questions for experienced ES daytraders?

    Honestly, if he wants to trade the ES... what is so wrong with this? It is after all his thread. Focusing on one instrument is key. There is no need to trade anything else once you know how to trade it. I think a specific thread about the ES, and specific requirements of having to include...

    I think the guys here are pretty good about weeding out abusive type stuff. But when it comes to weeding out the bullshit factor, its every man for himself. The people who can't trade, talk the loudest, and the ones making the most, sit back and enjoy the show while waiting for their trade to...

    Live futures trading room - view of order entry

    Would you like to first provide some stats of your trading? What do you trade? How many trades ave. per day? Typical profit target? Typical stop? Win rate? Knowing this would I think help people decide if this type of trading was for them, for their psychology, and knowing your stats would...

    Chick is gone! It wasn't even posted by the OP mind you, just a joke, so we can't conclude anything from that.

    Crazy simple. I'm not super sure of what is going on. On the one hand, I see the search come up with men in blue shirts against light backgrounds, but also the name Pavel comes up in there, so it must be in the image header or Exif or something somewhere. Anyway.. good job.... and I would...

    Out of curiosity @JackRab , how did you find it? I think google has some sort of algorithm to find similar pics.... is this correct? I know in the photography world, photographers are using technology all the time to find unauthorized uses of their images.

    Totally agree.. the only two pics who seem legit is Baron himself and Robert Morse. Shame.. I was hoping this guy's story was real.. just once for a change.

    Nice catch! I always figured this photo would be a fake. So unless this guy owns this blog, I would say stealing someone's picture is fraud.

    I think you missed the fact that he isn't doing this for you.

    ES vs. NQ

    I would say its quickier. If you're always on the right side of this move, then yes, it would be easier, but if you're on the wrong side, then it would be easier, and faster, to lose 5 points! :D I have studied both as well. What I saw was that the "jittery" motion of the NQ made me anxious...

    ES vs. NQ

    This won't matter because the CME will only send out 10 levels on each side of the current price. If you use some software that keeps a tab on what the levels were previously, and shows them as you get closer, they might not be accurate at the current moment. As soon as price gets within 10...

    ES vs. NQ

    Its funny because I was about to say that I disagree with both of these. The NQ tends to blow through levels lately because of a lack of liquidity, and with so many move levels, it makes stats analysis harder. Even using the DOM is harder because your'e only seeing 10 levels, and that can be...

    ES vs. NQ

    I think you're missing the fact that is would be extremely unlikely for the NQ to move only 14 points if the ES moved 14 points. Granted, they are based on different underlying stocks, but I don't think they have every moved 1:1 in terms of points. If the ES moved 10 points, the NQ will move...
