I was wondering what advantage there is in trading the 30 yr bond vs. 10 yr T-note? Would your approach work well for the 10 yr as well? I was also wondering how closely you track the ES.

From what I have read so far this vendor seems to be much more honest and actually has a system that is based on logic, unlike the scammers at puretick....

I've been working on developing an auto-trading system for a long time and have found that what you mentioned is all that really matters when it comes to trading from a chart. Indicators don't work for scalping and never will. I'm still tweaking a system to trade the NQ that is pretty much...

I live in the city. I mainly trade index futures now.

sell stop @ 79.75 covered at 76

this is like watching paint dry... im ready for the ES to break this 80 and down we go...

It doesn't seem to really have any solid direction today. Cash is still down while futures are up a tad.... Must be the lack of volume.

The answer to this question clearly relies on experience. Obviously if you are new to trading the ES then 1 contract would be appropriate. If it were someone who was consistently profitable and scalped with tight stops I don't know why they couldn't trade a least 2 or 3. Once again it all...

High cortisol levels have been linked to gambling addictions. So I would have to say austinp is correct.

you hit the nail on the head....

I was considering doing the same this as IS. I'm thinking about starting off with about $1K and seeing if I can build from there. The only difference is that I am looking into building some automated systems in tradestation to actually execute my strategies. This will eliminate my impulse...

I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with Photon either their remote trading or their on site trading arcade. I was curious as to what their rates and fee's are as well as the quality of education they provide. Any input on this firm or any similar firms is greatly appreciated.

the market closed at the bottom, and never really got a bounce... this is not good for the days to come. i sold the bottom out of the market all afternoon and made money. there were guys in the S&P pit shorting 100+ large at the lows left and right.....

is this mainly true with the less reputable firms? or is it basically the same with any prop shop? i may eventually enter the prop arena if i cannot find any other type of trading job after i graduate next week. any highly reccommended prop shops in chicago? any to really stay away from?

i was wondering how hard it is to get on at a prop firm. are they very selective in who they let trade? or will they pretty much take anyone who has 10K to throw down?

I will 2nd that one..... explosive farts left and right after lots of protein consumption....

P.S. if you don't already take a regular dump every morning before the open then I would reccommend eating this breakfast at least an hour before because you will most likely have to take a healthy dump (or 2) fairly soon after consuming all of it. It's all about the morning deuce......

Here is what my healthy breakfast usually consists of: 1. 16oz glass of Tropicana Grape or Orange juice 2. A hearty size bowl of some sort of high fiber cereal which is usually some sort of granola or Kashi 3. A double Optimum Nutrition Gold protein shake to wash everything down. 4. A gallon...
