lol. nothing cheers me up like reading this forum. spanish and buylow get ready to sell usd/jpy. its tanked overnight, so there will be some bad news or rumours coming out soon for you to sell on at the temporary bottom. dont worry the market is that easy to make money from, just sell when...

try the eurostoxx ESTX. it is like a less choppy, less fakey version of the ES. but it doesnt move as fast and far when it breaks out.

Hi guys, I trade mostly ES and FESX on IB but recently i have been trading ZN and bund contracts. today i had a ZN trade and a bund trade on into close and at around 3:30 i got the overnight margin warning. does anyone know which contract this was for? i know the ES and YM switch to...

im long this too at same area, lets see if it bounces into the close. if not small loss

well non linear it is playing out as you expected so far. i exited my short at 1428 for a 5 point loss on 2 contracts. as i said i was willing to take this stop out as i was not certain we would break to 1450 before the next downleg. hopefully today is a big parabolic up day and if we close...

ok thnx, thats what i thought just making sure

hi guys i shorted the rally today at 1415 and came back sold at close 1409. i was away tho until close, what moved market lower? technical move or any announcements? id like to know since i am swing trading short since last week at 1423, id rather it was technical thanks in advance

please dont pollute our conversation hedgefundturder. I think we are going to all time highs again in the next year or 2 actually so stfu. but not before another large wave of selling. which i am going to trade also. go away plz.

yea nonlinear, agreed that is a good possibility. however with these strategic reads i am usual wary that things may not pan out as 'deep' as i may think. remember we have had a good few weeks of rapid bidding, so things could make less of a bluffing range above 1400 and the sellers may hit...

damnit it would seem there are some other decent players here. good analysis OP, almost identical to mine. except i was looking for a fake up tp 1420-1430 (lol luckily todays figures pushed it right there so i fell like a genuis haha). perfect spot for a squeeze. think game theory. a...

i bought zn at lunchtime on friday and rode it up, covered 1/2 at first pivot and other 1/2 at 116. my gut told me it would retrace a bit, and i didnt want to short ES as i figured it might just sit at the highs till close like it has done on these other huge updays recently. im not buying zn...

sorry i meant 1326 pivot today not 1320...bit tired :)

seriously, stop trading right now. go back to play money and create a strategy that does not involve mindless averaging. Averaging is either laziness or lack of talent- 'i think price will rally today but im not talented enough to identify a good possible reversal point if the market sells...

Hi guys, I am a financial futures trader, not an oil trader, but i would like to ask any oil fundamental researchers a question. Sorry if this is not about trading, i dont know where else to ask! I have googled this many times and cant find anything. My family may well come into some...

customer service is terrible- if u have any questions ask them in this forum instead. they are an excellent platform when it comes to data and execution tho, ive had no problems.

Hi, I trade ES and Eurostoxx on IB using zeroline trader and quotetracker as my order ladder and graphing. Excellent setup, QT may be a bit basic for some who like complex TA but its perfect for me (price action only directional plays). Fast quotes and execution and almost zero downtime...

thanks for the replies guys. yea 300$ is way too much imo, i heard that reuters was under 100$ a month or something. does any1 have a link to where i can buy the reuters feed? thanks, Dave

Hi Bernard, I have been wanting to get a live news feed from reuters or dow jones, but i cant seem to find any links to these products on their websites. I assume this feed is the same as what prop and wall street get. Can you direct me to a link where i can buy such a live feed to use...

been daytrading ES and FESX on IB for a year now, i have not experienced anything like this where orders dont show up etc. on fed 200B monday last week i had upgraded my tws and zeroline software the night before and my stops didnt exit my 2 lot ES short at -20ticks. Instead I came back and...

yea targetted news releases. if this rally has a pullback to say 50% later cos of heavy shorting better all long cos Bear S will send out a spokesman to say rumours today are false and they are fine. which will rally the market hard again. dont fight the fed (and their banking chums)
