very sorry to hear you back to paper trading. ES is not a good trading tool. there is too many people on that thing, everyone tries to outsmart the market and extract some money. did you notice: when it starts to bump up, in blink of eye, it suddenly drops 3points or 5 points or vice versa...

that is why I said it many times, when you have an opinion or view, you will try to fit your theory into the market, you are not trading, you are trying to prove your thoughts/ideas/thoreys. free up your mind, you will not be stubborn, you will be objective. stubornness comes from your...

oops, I need congraulate to you about your forgetting of paper trading. always say to yourself, no paper trading!

congralation, you finally forget about trading. tomorrow, forget about stock trading, just ES!

you can log out TWS, restart your pc, then try it again. or change your operating system to LINUX, that will solve the problem permanently. windows version TWS has lots of bugs, this creates pressure, the problamtic chart will make you nervous.

did you buy that level yet? I covered it at 932., then bought it at 932.5

look at ES today, the morning high is 936.25, if you try breakup, you are wrong agian. even you have 3point loss cut there, you lost it alreday whatevr. there is no support or resiatnce there, you need use filters to tell you how to execute your strategy. today's is bound to take a rest day...

then do not do paper trading. you did not take the breakup trade, you should said to yourself, it is ok. since the market may reverse at the breakup point, it is statistically valid in an uptrend market, most are diven by GOOG/IBM earning annoncement expectation. after you change your strategy...

I said it many times, do not try to theorize something. trend lines or so called trends or resistance or support, actually when you go through most charts, there exist none of them. you need learn to gauge people's expectation or fear before news, then you will leap a big step. think in...

did not see you P/L, you must have damn great day, the index shoot nicely 3.0+%, ES shoot almost 30 points

thanks for your reply. I found it out this morning. it seems after 9:00am, I can trade double size of contracts over overnight position (2:30PM to 9:00am, beyond 45minutes break). the reason I want to know is I want to speed up making money, crude is a very awesome tool to extract money...

thanks for your reply. do you have any idea about margin requirement in different time? I try to trade more contracts before 8:30am, it seems my order was rejected because of margin limitation. but after a while, it seems I can trade double number of contracts (intra-day margin?) do you have...

8:30am or 9:30am? normally I do not care about that, since most time i start to trade crude at 7:30am. I notice some time like today the market starts to move quickly around 8:30am with no news, though shorted it at 60.5, covered it at 58.8. since 2:30pm later, crude is being traded in...

your account is too large. you need withdraw some money from it, or you need split it into several accounts. one account keep 150k, load some mutual funds or etfs, find good spot and stay there for several months or years another account is aroun 50k, do day trading, produce some positive...

you made pretty progress. trading is about trying and error. do not try to make some opinions about the market. when I read through bighog's observation, I just entered long Es at 872.75, sold it at 875.75, then shorted it at 876.5 and covered it at 873.75. if you think 875 is a support, this...

very objective observation. final hour may prove 875 is a resistance

from your list, you just did the opposite, are you doing financial suicide? or you are no brain...

MRNA is a pumpie and dumpie. classic. do not trade bio-stocks. they are too volatile. either way, you may get hit hard. if youshort itbefore thenews, youdead. ifyou boughtit, it keep dropping,you dead. ofcourse, that is not the truth. some maykeep rising afterthenews,but some justgoesback...

could you post your loss records? very interested in that

you did better than Warren Buffet, his takings most down at least 50%+. not too bad. add more money, buy more stuff or short more stuff, created a gigantic portifilio, will have more fun just a joke my serious suggestion, close all your positions, and withdraw 80~90% of your account...
