Yes....I would expect if the vix gets back to 15, the mkt would have had a nice pullback...probably a good time to get long.... need some volatility with some follow through..would be nice....

Thats gonna be an expensive hat if this keeps up my friend. Honestly....I dont give a rats arse if the mkt goes up or down. We need volatility. The Vix over 15 would be a nice christmas present.....

I think my computer is messed up....the sp's are 1 point off their low in a 12 pt range.......where is this strong rebound?

What about those 12444's you told me to buy? I guess just average down huh?

Well....1.3m isn't "really" a hedge fund. Come on....thats rather funny. Hey.....the kid turned 12k into 1.3 mil. Thats great. He...like a ton of others road the mkt up back in the easy times. But to go around saying he is a hedge fund manager...and daytrades 1.3 mil is pretty damn far...

I havent seen this TV show. How much money does this kid have under mgmt?

What about the guys who shorted the index futures as the dow failed to go through all time highs? A much better trade. Was pretty much screaming to be shorted once it failed...... sure got quiet in here....lol

Not heckling you at all. Just saying IMHO, there was a very low risk/ high reward set up at that point. Sure it looks good now....but with the way this mkt has been trading, ANYTHING could happen. I figured if we didnt blow through that high, people would panic....especially the guys who...

Anyone buying index futures up here as the dow touched its all time high is insane. Touched.....failed......Incredible set up for a short trade....talk about a lay up.

Even after that home loss to Va Tech?.........that might be worse than bad fills....connections going down...etc....

Are you mad at TradeStation? Or are you upset with the fact that The Cane's football program has become 3rd rate.....

If we sell off massively after tommorrow,then it will be official. The market is rigged. Tough to argue with that the way things are today....they announce the death sentence for Saddam 2 days before the election.....economic nimbers come out horrible...then are "miraculously" revised...

I think until the mkt shows its hand (on the downside), it's really hard to hold a short position with confidence. Wait until we have our first decent down day to get aggressive on the short side. Something that says this run up is done. Yesterdays move was a bitch. Finally looked like we...

Yeah..in my opinion its definetly on their end. THe IT guy at the FCM was seeing the same thing I was seeing.

Yeah...am in the process of doing that. The fact that you say the CME hasnt had many problems really is important. Because I have been having slowdowns all the time. Some are not bad at all.....but some are ridiculous. Happens all the time when the mkt makes new highs/lows. thanks again...

I hear ya. My main question was about the slowing when there is volatility. From what others on here say TT doesnt have that problem.

I called the firm we clear through with my problem. They provide this new order entry system. They have claimed that they have only had a few complaints over the last few mos. I have called them at least twice a month since June and every time they say "we are having a problem with the...

Thanks. That what I thought.

Thanks man. Thats is what I am finding. I have missed a few trades recently which was costly. Like you said...those ticks add up. Very frustrating when you are trying to buy 1318's and the mkt is really 1318.50 -1318.75. Appreciate your input.

I never had a problem with TT. Did it more as a cost cutting thing for my firm to see if it was worth paying the money to TT. I dont scalp so I figured as long as the order entry system was reliable I would give it a shot. From what I can see I gotta get the hell back on to TT. I was just...
