Baggerlord, I have never really been open to the clues that volume may offer, could you explain a little further on what you have noticed. regards, Bruce Hawkins A rock is acted upon by outside forces, but a flower opens to the world receiving what is available and grows. (Don't...

Sempai, I think the point is the minute you start picking and choosing which trades you are going to take then you are gambling. Determine what constitutes an edge, use filters, and then each and every time that edge presents itself you have to execute. If you have been in the market...

Baggerlord, The white line is your MA? Would the BB pierce at approx. 8:15 on your chart have been an entry if the MA was closer to 45 degree slope? Are you using a 5 minute chart? Thanks, Bruce Hawkins

Runningbear, I have had a 32 meg J Pro 4 head for about four years. Started with Win NT and now use it with Win2K. Works fine no problems. If I had to do it over again I might look at 2 dual head cards, just because if one card goes down, at least you have the other card. I am currently...

Not sure where I heard this but (maybe it was me), "My definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting different results." I really enjoy what you have been sharing in your reports, please continue. regards, Bruce Hawkins

Great post Momo, you read my mind. That is exactly where I am at this point in my trading career. FEAR OF BEING WRONG. Thanks for sharing. regards, Bruce Hawkins

Scottie, How dare you question the Trading God. He has spoken. So let it be said so let it be done. By the way I missed what your trading strategy was. Of course on the other hand, the only limitation we have is self imposed. If you believe that anything is possible, well than anything is...

If average equals, go to work 9:00 – 5:00, can’t wait for your next coffee break, dream about what you are going to have for lunch, go to the bathroom even thou you don’t have to just to kill 5 minutes, the minute you get home the tube is on and beer in hand, you are not going to make a...

I forgot to mention I am a hillbilly at heart. Vanna can I have an "n" please. LOL Bruce

I wrote this because I didn’t follow my rules, regarding trading. Why, because I haven’t committed them to paper there are just floating around in my head. So now I am in the process I giving them life and power. I came up with this Trading Statement because I wanted something that I...

I was told by a computer salesman that unless your CPU usage is getting maxed out by the programs you are running (not just the initial spike caused by opening the program) that dual CPU's are a waste of money. He also mentioned something about most software is not designed designed to take...

I installed Sp4 just now everything fine. No problems so far. Sometimes I think people go a little overboard regarding MS and their evil intent. Yawn!!! I am getting very sleepy, I just need to lie down for a few minutes. Yawn!!!!!! Here is a nice spot. Can any body tell me where the yellow...

Thanks Corvus, Your tip about disabling auto reboot did the trick. I was able to see the file that was causing the problem. It was sound driver problem. Deleted and reinstalled, seems to be ok. thanks again, Bruce

I have the same problem, close down I.E. or any program that accesses the net and the first monitor goes black then blue with some white text for just a sec then, reboots. I also have Norton System Works, now that I think about it, it started about the time I installed it. I will remove...

Well, as long as you have a good reason.

For those of you who do not have enough capital to cover your emini positions with the QQQ's or Spyders, you could offset with the Dow mini YM which trades on the CBOT. Now this could work with IB if it is just an exchanged related outage. It appears to trade close to a 1 to 1 ratio. One...

I was thinking the same thing. Is there any easy way to change the password. No disrespect meant to the creator of the program, I am just not comfortable typing in my username and password into a 3rd party program. regards, Bruce Hawkins

Mrs. Shorty, It is not a question of right or wrong, if you have a trading plan (which you should) and did not get any setup's that you should have acted upon, then you took the appropriate position, which was flat. I went long 1 ES at 10:01 at 857.75 when it was 2 pts. in my favor I...

I use Esignal's data with Ensign and my broker is IB (Interactive Brokers). Having different sources for quotes is important to me in case one source goes down, which will happen no matter who you use. Alot can depend upon your physical location and your "route" to the internet. Most...

Bobby, My understanding is that the initial order that you create (the one that you right click to attach the other orders too) is called the parent order. All the orders are sent at one time until the parent order is filled the other orders are not sent out, I believe they reside on IB's...
