I have been trying for 2-3 points and I guess maybe what I meant for me at least it seems like you don't get the larger swings till a little later on in the day and the swings are what help me. I've still got a lot to learn. Paul

Jack, Sometimes I read you information and slightly understand what you are talking about and other times I don't get it. I know people make fun of you sometimes but you SEEM like a really smart guy and I THINK I am somewhat intelligent but I just don't understand what you are...

Quick question guys. I am very new to trading the ES. I have been watching it for about a month and paper trading. I have had fairly good success but still not as good as I would like and had a question. I know economic situation and have noticed the last week and especially the last...

OK, thanks for the answers. So, how rare is this? Once a year? Once every 5 years? Thanks....

Yeah,, they would actually have to vote term limts for themselves and you know how that would go.

Just curious if anyone used a laptop and a cellular internet card or maybe traded while sitting in Starbucks. I have not done this and don't know that I would be just curious how fills were etc... ? Paul

Thanks... That is a thought. I appreciate the info. Paul

So your saying all orders are cancelled where the exchange went down? So if I were in or out of the money when it went down they would cancel my orders wherever they were at? Thanks...

What happens if you are in an order? Has anyone had this happen? What do you do to protect yourself? Just curious. Paul

You might get takers but I think people would get really bored watching you take 300 trades in a day. They would literally be sitting there watching you trade and at 300 trades a day you probably wouldn't be able to talk to them much.

Sort of like Ninja Trader allows? Thanks....

I agree but I am only scalping 1.5 to 2.0 pts at the most. I am not trending etc.... I have yet to see it move that much during the day in a gap up or down (not that it couldn't) I have seen it first thing in the opening but, I am not in the market during the opening. What are the odds of a...

Thank you!!!

After you had 3 months profit when you went to real money did anything change? Obviously you are still making money but did it affect you mentally or had you ironed all that out before hand. What about things you had not considered before going live from a mental stand point? Thanks for...

Thanks... That is something to think about. Wish I could hit all of those opportunities!

Whoa! Looks like I am seriously under capitalized. Hmmmmm... Thanks for the response.

OK, Thanks for the help on my previous post about stops. I have pretty much decided to use mental stops while trading the ES due to volatility but will put a stop in way down the line in case of disaster. Now I have another question. My account is 11K using Ninja Trader and...

How about chart sizing? Are you able to get a full one or two days on one screen? I have not been able to do this. Maybe I am just not doing something correctly. I am trying to cut down on the indicators :) Paul

Just wanted to make sure. I haven't seen anything that says it's not. Paul
