    CL Redux

    gotcha i understand...but i wasnt really trying to compare in that way but it came out like that. More on the comparison between other markets vs. nymex. i.e. I pay 2.50 on es but 3.42 on 6e so really i guess its in the middle. Always just seems so much bc you get the index prices stuck in your...

    Afghan' Traders

    Why does every thread end up in a political/religous debate? Anyways, are you in the military or a contractor/spy? Or an opiat drug dealer? I assume you are not from Afgan from the key words "Right now."

    Perpetual, I spent 100K to go to school and cannot earn income.

    nor is it in the USA.....people that rack up these kind of amounts are ivy league/private or get every college loan possible to pay for 10 kegs of beer a day i guess.... I got my degree and never paid a penny. I guess nobody here ever had the grades to be offered a scholarship? They paid all my...

    problem is there is no volume (ie market participants) to keep any type of manipulation and HFT machines in check....they just churn and churn it freely

    Passage to $1 Million

    I see what you are trying to say here but that is terrible advice to a new trader. How many times have you thought they were just going to hunt for stops by a couple ticks and then seen it explode to the upside? Best advice for this situation is to let your stop hit, then wait and see if it was...

    Placing target 2x Stop loss is overrated

    I see what your saying but I don't see how this example relates to what the OP is pointing out. He is saying to use stops but that your targets don't have to be twice as big to be profitable. He is also talking about a finite period trade.

    Placing target 2x Stop loss is overrated

    yes both ways could work and are appropriate as long as the win% is in line with your R/R. Some are better at swinging for homeruns but strike out more. Others go for singles and occasionally strike out. I too prefer the singles strategy of the daily grind.

    Determining 6e institutional price levels

    better to use on the 6e is the daily expiring option numbers. i.e. 500 million expiring thursday at 1.3050. The S/R numbers you are referring to that I have seen are basic levels you see on a chart. Nothing special and as OTC said, whenever I see these levels published they often get runover...

    Bright Trading's new payout model

    He said it goes to Bright. So this entire argument doesnt make any sense or is flawed. If the 20% goes to Bright, then wouldn't Bright simply pass it on to the traders? What is Goldman going to tell Bright, "no, you have to keep the money for yourselves! It's the only way we will do business...

    Passage to $1 Million

    I already stated all your concerns a month ago but got no response other than a couple people who all just opened an account and all posts are in this thread. Hmmmmmm, I guess you would have to be an idiot to not figure that out. This will go on for a few more months until he gets enough newbies...

    I always buy at the top!

    heres an idea.....dont trade when near the highs or lows of the day.....wait for a reversion to the mean, poc, value area, ma, something else to intiate a trade. Leave the bottom picking to the big boys

    Why you should average up, NEVER down

    if your blowing up without ever averaging into the position, then your initial position is way to large already.......or you are referring to longer term blowups where you really suck bad at trading and never win over and over until you reach 0
