His daily updates can be useful, at least when he has the market pegged. When he doesn't, it's like Traderkay says, his pivots can be awfully expensive! I tried to trade from his daily updates and found it less than profitable. But then, if you have your own ideas about the market, it might help...

you are out of your mind. take a look at the markets right now again

To be ornery and contrite, you can't learn about daytrading from a college course(although that gamer theory course does look potentially rewarding, but NOT as a means of improving your intraday trading skills, but on non-linear economics). You can learn about managing money for a bank, or how...

sorry, don't know how to use the quote function properly. the last post was written partly by me in response to trader99!

:( :(

I'm up for a good laugh when it comes around, but you are mocking someones character for your own amusement and others here who are too cynical to actually take the time to figure out if one Jack Hershey is a great trader or has presented a tradeable system. Try and stick to that. Because...

Sooner than I expected. I have made back all my losses from blowing my stop just a week and half ago. I have traded my butt off. This highly volatile market is printing money, IF YOU USE STOPS:p Thanks again to everyone for the great suggestions. I feel somehow obligated to talk about my...

Thanks for turning a new phrase for me to use here jem. Well it's been two days since I posted my confession about "pulling a neiderhoffer" and it has made a huge difference in my trading. I haven't pulled any stops and more importantly, I haven't had the urge. Sure a market which goes up...

To my memory, I don't have many winning trades as a result of pulling stops (only one this year for +10) But considering I lost 35 pts for blowing a stop, the system is working itself out just fine, stops DO make money even if they take it first. I trade on 60 minute bars for signal...

I have a problem. I have blown stops about 3 times in a year. Usually they coincide with huge reversals and consequently enormous drawdowns. Like this weeks bottom, I was short ES at 792 and had a order to reverse and go long at 791 and an initial stop on my 792 short at 794. Some little...

opm rollover dude es3m not es3h

I know the emotionally comforting thing to do is use a real trailing stop in the market. But you will get stopped out of an enormous amount of big moves using a trailing stop simply based upon market ticks. My experience, albeit limited to only a year of futures trading, is to pick a time frame...

Yes, most traders with experience trust their gut regarding this fake-out counter move, but I think the question is still left unanswered, does anyone have verified PROOF that the mm's and big money are running stops? I mean, not everyone trades with the same time horizon or even directional...

would it be possible to read what the hell the system does and not just the results? Very happy for you, you made 30% last month. WHat can I do but watch and applaud. More info please...

anyone actually position trading single stock futures? I have thought it would be a great way to spread a small accounts risk with multiple positions instead of a single stock position. Less capital required than an index future as well. On the other hand, are the spreads really that...

Jester, This is the e-mail I received from Greentreetrading early last week. I am not trying to call you or anyone a liar, but I just want a fair shot in the futures game. Note I asked what kind of deal could be arranged with a 5k deposit (the minimum deposit as per the web site information)...
