I am ready to trade tiger shrimp futures in Hanoi, gotta be flexible... :D

Red Kite (hedge fund) is caught long copper and loosing their ass. They will pound cooper the next few days now that the cat is out of the bag to make them suffer.

Anyone want to start a pool as to when holy grail blows up? I say Feb. 5, 10:49 am.

Has anyone noticed the ym getting a bit thinner? Volume was down last month but the last few days the spread is weak, have seen a couple ticks more often than usual. As mentioned in an earlier thread, their were no bidders at 12666, most traders would just skip the number and bid at 67. Even...

Personal savings/income numbers are skewed by the growing black (cash) market.

Cash can't trade above it and ymh7 can't trade below it. 666 is a powerful number.....

By the way, today they was a major coronal mass ejection from the far side of the sun today. Being in retail, (and a trader), I have to ask you, do you know what effect that has on human (trader behavior) in about 2-3 days? Like I said, I have been around........

I warned you about the number. I don't make calls so I retract, I pointed it out to you. In 96 the sp fell nearly 10% from 666. 12666, is 12/2,666, or 66666, no doubt a sharp reaction. (only to rally for 4 more years). Call me an idiot or go back to mommy, fact is I was short from 12663...

Uhhh, I don't make market calls. Just an observation base on floor traders experience. You do what you wnat with it.

666 is a trading number. I remember when the spoos traded around it itn 96. Ym traded off 12666 yesterday and was squeezed past it after hours. Watch for the ym to hold 12666, well be alot of action around there.

There is a squeze going on after hours in the index futures.

Delay your gratifaction. Like another poster said the markets will always be there. Go bust your ass for several years and put away a few hundred thousand. You will be all the better for gaining the discipline for working for it.

I cut my teeth on tradesports trading the hourly and end of day dow before jumping into the ym after 10 years out of the indexes. Anyone else trade there? I would highly recommend it to get the feeling for trading at a low cost of entry.

p and f is how the floor traders used to chart. They did refer to time, the buzzer on the floor sounded every 15 minutes. Has stood the test of time and technology.

cme interface was down today. Between the cme and the ecbot, I think the merger is going to get messy. Be prepared to hedge outiside of the exchanges if they go down intraday, I am referring to eminis.... and any globex or ecbot contract.

I believe a trader should always be prepared for the worst case scenario and am doing research on various intra marketplace and product hedges and profit opportunities in the case of a man made or natural disaster. Chances are in our lifetime (depending on your age, I am 35) there will be...

What are you trading?

50% retracement rules. Fill the gap, trade in that direction. Pivot point confuence all the better. Today was perfect on the ym. Filled the gap to the downside and could not trade above 636 all day after news. finallay broke down to 600 retraced to 623 from 645. Good day, and I even had a...

You are in for a lashing! What's with all the excuses? I will let the peanut gallery fininsh it off.

You may know them but they are fluid, support becomes resistance and vice versa. You still have to know how to trade which is 99% of the battle.
