this one is a bit strange. elitetrader.com traders getting fat sharing humble market pie.

alterego itching to step out of the closet aye? I vote yes.

Obnoxious aren't you. One thread later, you've transformed from a newbie seeking advice on trading/(turning 5k into 100k in 18 mths) to get a porsche just to spite your ex, into an arrogant pest. If you don't like what nitro has to say, put him on ignore.

Out of curiousity, how do you manage indicators using chart data on non-continuous contracts (monthly contracts on HKFE + SIMEX et al- most liquid being current month). Thanks.

I've really enjoyed your journal, and hope you become the trader you want to be. I'm a little curious why you have set a 1R goal. Wouldn't you be better of waiting for setups that lead to higher probability of larger gains (>3R), instead of punting for pikes? Wouldn't the extra leverage (5...

I think you are familiar with the state of your psyche and the conditions the market is exhibiting when that occurs (how you feel, what you see, think etc). As an experiment, when you "feel" that episode coming on, have you deliberately tried going the other way? Just once, force yourself to...

they should make the movie.

1 point? $50/contract (eg es). How do you manage the small stop without getting bounced out?

Agreed nitro. 8000 is the 5ma, and 8500 is the 20 (more like 8600+) at this point.

The Street had a story about "real" institutional buying (10k contracts) at yesterday's intraday low; ended with "defending that level". Market started its move overnight when Japan's MOF jawboned the yen. Looks like whoever was doing the buying was looking at the 5ma on the naz daily chart...

Every time the market hits an extreme low (30) RSI on a daily chart, the market rallies forming a hammer candlestick (coincides with lundy's bottom calling btw). Upside resistance so far in this downward trend has been the 20MA. With VIX at a new peak (treasuries looking peakish too), it's...

That's one of the things I watch myself for. I have alternative setups that help me enter/exit a trade for both long and short (I use the 60 min chart for this, and watch the 15/5). My primary setup is the most likely direction to trade in, but so I don't get stuck in a perspective, I clearly...

LOL quality time spent working on the animation? :D

not today though, on my system at least. How about yours?

not all markets are on holiday when the US is closed (and even then the eminis are usually trading overnight). Esignal should update its charts for markets that aren't closed even if the US is shut for holidays.

Would you mind my asking how many points do you gain/lose per trade that way?

You did 39 round trips on the 4th? Are you addicted to the excitement of trading/button clicking? 50 times a day trading 1 contract sounds a bit much to me?

LOL:D

What software are you using?

goto tools in IE select internet options choose security tab choose "custom level" button scroll down to scripting make sure the 3 options are "enabled" hope this helps
