Wannabe trader? you got the wrong man here, mike. Now looking at your different posts, I think we all know who is the wannabe trader here. :) I have no idea what Mark Douglas's trading record is (do you?) and I don't care. All I know is that his book is efficient when it comes to learning how...

Just want to add a few words as I see that there has been mention of Trading in the Zone - with some good comments from Osbourne. NoDoji, I've been reading a bit your journal, particularly your last post about trading and emotions and I can't stress enough how beneficial that book would be to...

Hey, I hope all is well with you... I agree with you, I've been betting on the long side this morning. I will change my mind if we can't get back above yesterday low/close though...

At the time you called it es was trading a bit above 1070, so that would have been a 15pts trade. Since then it went down 20 handles and it is still underwater. Would that be a typical R:R trade for you and how much are you usually willing to let the market go against you before you take...

In a week... quite unlikely as there is quite a lot of subjectivity in my trading. Unless that person already went thru years of markets, up, down, high&low volatility, etc... Now depending on that person's mental skills and/or willingness to acquire the proper ones - discipline, ability to...

it was an insignificant level.

I'm curious to see if the zone provides support or not.

inadvertently...? Can someone please unplug that bot?? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukeHdiszZmE :p

so c) it is... thanks for posting it AMT.

That would have been an option but that is not what the tape says. What we have here is a myriad of 0.1k - 1.1k trades here is what TS shows right after it happens:

Yeah, I know they're doing such a hard work investigating this. It's good to know we live and work in a transparent market. Transparent...

I think some of the folks here are missing the point. It's not so much about position limits. It's about one or two (or more) parties trading an abnormal volume of contracts at a FIXED price (37.25&37.50). a) There were multiple parties involved, and there was an agreement to trade at...

You couldn't even spell Marijuana correctly... Thirsty? :p

Don't worry, we've got everything under control. I repeat, we've got EVERYTHING under control.

Agree, looking at the tick chart, roughly 99% of that volume was up. and yet it was absorbed within two ticks...

Strange activity on the tick chart. It looks like a couple bots suddenly got crazy. Not sure what that means... If anyone has a clue...
