Thanks Mr. Sub, I appreciate your input. The last couple days are mostly rambling and I have no real thought of changing any thing at this point. Man you should see all the typing mistakes that I DO manage to catch!!:D :D Make 'em pretty, Chris

nkhoi - I am very happy that you got something out of it. LOL

Ok, I must ask why this is the case? It seems that everyone has this opinion - if more people knew my rules it would no longer work; Why is that? Seems to me that if everyone looked at my system saw what I saw and jumped on board it would move it my direction, no? Make 'em pretty, Chris

Try this:cool:

Today was in fact better than yesterday - but it sure didn't feel like it. Days like yesterday and today make me wonder about going back to the beggining. This started out as 1 point stop and .5 profit. Win rate was consistently at 80%. But as Larrybf pointed out, it looked like there was...

Profitseer, I have finally seen the light. :cool: I didn't realize I had to hit the transmit button! I just now noticed the new Transmit button. I was hoping it was more automatic like BracketTrader. Thanks, Chris

Thanks No, I don't have a difference. I don't know if there would be any preformance difference. But I suppose if I was to take the original "strict rules" and trade only that as compared to 5,2,1 div and continuation trades, there may be a difference; but back testing is not 100% so I...

Only time will tell - as long it (the system, style or idea) continues to make money and you continue to trade it properly. Make 'em pretty, Chris

Personnally, I don't see why you can't keep this up. It seems to be about what I am trying to do also. Make 'em pretty, Chris

Let me quess the guy that backed you was 40yoTrader? Make 'em pretty, Chris

Thanks for the quick responce. Doesn't seem to. I have hotkeys for price changes, and the price does change and the line turns a different color but the original price is still taken for the trade. Thanks, Chris

BracketTrader is a great piece of software. Def, Can IB make TWS change stops as BT does? one click cancels one order and sends another in an instant. Like moving a stop or a target, without manually canceling one then sending the replacement. (or can this be done already?) Make 'em...

Today seemed to be a tough day for me. Took a few anticipation trades and most of them turned out ok. Had a few trades that made it to +.5 and turned and stoped out. Don't like it when that happens. 14 trades 7 winners (50%) for a total of +.5 points = ($42.20) I installed the new...

1 min for scalping the ES. 2 and 4 for trading the ZB an ZN. Why? why not!! Looking forward to trying some tick charts. Make 'em pretty, Chris

Golly, and I just gave all the information to my simple sytem! Can I retract all that information then charge a nice big fee of say $29.95? (No steak knives) Make 'em pretty, Chris

But wait, thats not all if you order NOW, we will through in this set of Ginsu steak knives absolutely FREE! What the heck we know you didn't ask, but, it comes complete with your own KITCHEN SINK! (This will not help with your trading but it comes in handy for that crow.) Make 'em...

Traded a little longer this morning as IB had problem for a little while. 7 Trades 6 winners (86%) for a total of 3.75 points = $153.90 Looking into trying something a lttle different for my exits - stops are still hard at 1 point, but I did not set a target on a few of the trades. Kept...

Thanks def, I had found that almost immiediatly after asking. Make 'em pretty, Chris

WOW, great, just found it! How do we get it moved from the drop down menu to perhaps the drop down type or a button or a hotkey or something a little more convenient? Thanks, Chris Is there some place to drop suggestions like this?

A stop will ALWAYS get filled, might be some slippage but will get filled. Make 'em pretty, Chris
