Possible geometric target around 1496-7?

If you do 5 lots x 10 turns a day your traded volume is 100 lots but so is someone else's so based on 100k total vol. per day you can double your estimate to 2000 people. (I think). Assuming my data is correct, based on volume / number of trades per 1 min bar the average size is about 3.5...

For a clean, organic high you can't beat a kitten. http://uncyclopedia.org/wiki/Kitten_huffing

For UK residents, at least, people are generally taxed like this: (very roughly in £) First 5k free Next 2k 10% 7k to 32k 22% Above 32k 40% The 22% will be reduced to 20% in a year or two and the 10% band will disappear. This is income tax, paid by self-employed people and...

CFerret just a thought but is it possible this premium move is caused by YM falling 6 pts before the IB INDU quote was refreshed? I only ask because on my feed (IQfeed) there is no such move to 6 (I have a high of about 3) and I know that IB do not refresh their INDU quote as frequently as one...

Spooz I think we've crossed wires. I wasn't disagreeing with you at all. My post was directed at Apex who was surprised not to be filled at a certain level. A couple of people then said don't be surrpised because there were probably several orders in front of his, some which may have been...

AFAIK GTC futures orders are native to Globex, i.e not broker simulated, and are definitely not cancelled during maintenance. If they were cancelled every night then why provide them alongside day orders?

Mmmm 9.5kg of sugar :)

A crude chart of Dow accounting for the dollar index....yeah the maths is a bit shaky but there's no denying this new high is not one at all from a dollar value perspective. Also intraday divergence between 3 Dow indices on the left.

Interesting question fearless. Aggressive shorts come in first because they have had success at this level twice already, while more patient potential aggressive longs stay sidelined and wait. They want to see how strong the bears are and will let the crowd jump in first and do their...

In that particular instance, i.e volume at the bid, sellers are more aggressive because they are paying the buyer's chosen price. An aggressive buyer would be hitting the ask, not waiting to be hit. Not that this dry distinction necessarily tells us anything useful. For what it's worth (half...

NEW(C) up 100% to 1.35 so far today :confused:

Eqttrdr who not have a permanent signature to save yourself all that typing? http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/search.php?s=&action=showresults&searchid=1576918&sortby=lastpost&sortorder=descending:) :)

Hmm ... I wonder if it'll do this? The Fibs on the 60 min mark a 1:1 of the prior drop from 57.7 to 53.8 (so 56.2 to 52.4)

1393 please guv'nor.

In your example you fail to take account of the probability of reaching 4.5 points but not reaching 9. The scale out method will bank profit in this scenario (0.75 pts/lot) while the classic method will lose money.

3SOF: I gather you spent some time being mentored by Rearden Metal. What did you learn? Leaira: OMG he was so totally awesome. Like this one time he asked me to put on some furry costume. It had a tail and everything, y'know kinda like a mouse? I felt like such a douche bag trying to read the...

:eek:

For every contract aggressively bought by someone with a market order who wants in "right now" there is another contract passively sold by someone with a limit order wanting the current best sale price. Aggression - market orders - on its own does not necessarily warn of price progression in...

If we assume consistency as stated, then surely the size they put on is totally irrelevant? Trader A harvests double the number of points per day per contract as Trader B so (s)he is clearly the superior trader. But perhaps you are implying that whereas Trader B has a lot of confidence in...
