    Estx50

    Stops are a very individual thing and are in my opinion a more creative act than most believe it to be. Stops on the ESTX50: My stops are generally between 3 and 16 points. I have done some wide backtesting in march of this year on what stop levels give a higher problability of success and...

    Anyone trading futures with T&S?

    Like I wrote in my post I started to use T&S two weeks ago after I haven't used them for over a year. The last time I used T&S was when I traded a certain nasdaq stock. Since I currently only trade futures I tought it would be useless because there are no volume information to the T&S. The...
