France - Monday morning here.

I don't believe there is such a high failure rate on *this* forum. I would go for 40% winner on stocks and 20% on futures compared to a 10% for global community including investors. There are true skilled professionals on this board, and they are more than just 1%, or even 10%... It's easy to...

Wow... I feel really sad for his family and so. This guy doesn't have a single clue about how trading works. He was probably trying to cover his debts out of despair... Sad to see how trading and gambling can ruin a life.

buy - sell - buy - Sell - Buy - .... All market orders... deep illiquid markets would be a must... 50 lots at a time... With a well-thought strategy, it can be done in 15 minutes, even less...Automation would be a must ...:D

If you want to reach your goal, don't try to predict where it won't go, just use market orders and do as many trades as possible... It can be done.

I saw it in real time last week when he shorted in the overnight session. He was using limit orders, but in a real weird way... I thought it was some panic selling as he was showing huge size and taking every little bid around without waiting for a bigger counterpart. Placing on a 5 lot with...

Still no datas in France. It just made me make a laughable error ... I wasn't aware of it and I saw one of the biggest arb ever, but of course one of the legs was frozen and didn't get filled ...LOL

really great. Better than ever.:) Averaging 1K a day lately.

Wow...God bless you... Now, everybody says "you're right" to day so he can go back to his business of forecasting GE price in 2026, leaving unfortunate compulsive scalpers to their financial self-destruction.

Thanks. I am sure anybody who trade the wheat overnight session noticed it. It was really unusual trading.

He meant buy limit order I think

So It seems that the joker seller was Mr Dooley, from MF Global... To exit his position properly, he submitted a market order soon after the regular session opened... Sometimes you have to be sure you get a fill...:D

Agree. That's what I call slippage:D . The guy must have been something like 30m$ in the hole just after pressing... Imagine his face.

What does it mean to make tons of money if you don't get the time to spend it, take vacations, relax... One of the reason why I trade is that you can live everywhere... I seriuosly want to see every place in the world through trading... A guy with 50m$ that never goes out of his tiny...

Hello, I have been having the same problem since 2 weeks with Cocoa, Cotton, Coffee, Orange juice... I get the 5 level order book only until 7am or so... I just got one level of depth for the main session with BookTrader...I obviously subscribed to ICE Datas. I was thinking it was due to...

This is one of the most stupid thing I did in a while... I should have been killed crazy...

No real horror story but seeing the action, I just decided to give it a try and scalp it with 1 lot. + 62.5 ... + 75$ .... + 125$ ... - 300$ ... End of attempt... Costing me 37.5$ + commishs... Too fast for me...

Holy Wscheat... And I was impressed by the action overnight... :eek:

Saga, your problem with the market order fill is due to TS bad quality of datas... Even on the T§S... I use TS and it happens to me every day. The market got to your exit point, but TS just didn't report it. I also use IB and I can compare the 2 feeds in real time. IB just got a lot more...

North Open... ??? I don't understand this market:confused:
