Trading the ES. Any thoughts/experiences following this? I can see some practicality but missed opportunities too.

It has been my observation if my timing is good I take very little heat and the trade usually goes my way almost immediately. Hence,would I be foolish to use something like .50 or .75 as an initial stop?Or,will random noise chop me out too much? I don't have a problem(that big of one that...

Some smart dudes-Bill Miller@ Legg Mason had been buying heavy into the builders recently. Saw where DHI got hit pretty good last week. Go to gurufocus.com....can see alot of the best's trades. great site. glta.

Fricking,greedy scumbag. Lets hear it for karma. The epitome of whats wrong w/ some of the "leaders"in Corporate america. Couldn't happen to a greater guy.

Again I thank everyone for their feedback,insight and suggestions. I do have a system/approach-when followed-that is consistently profitable. I think,upon reflection now,discipline and awareness of this behavior will aid me on the path. I probably also need to work on my concentration and...

Just want to Thank everyone for their input. Alot of wisdom and experience here...and it certainly helps those of us still relatively new on the path. Mark Douglas's -Trading in the Zone-has been helpful and may address action such as mine. Probably need to re-read and ABSORB/ACT on some of...

I do;but still ignore it at times. Not sure why...

Thx.. I have had success being a contrarian in stocks and options at times...maybe I need to learn to mentally separate the two approaches.(It is my e-mini trading where I "fight" the market.).

Like trying to pick a top/or short a strongly trending up market...instead of entering on a pullback to support/or Fib. retrac. which then kicks off another up leg? Is this self-sabotage? A rebellious,contrarian side? What is wrong with my perception/filters that would induce me to be...

Intraday purposes. Has anyone found it beneficial to monitor the prem/discount levels as an aid to entry/exit timing? Or,is it too random w/too much noise to be of any good? Also, why is it I see the futures price always move before the index itself? Frontrunning before a large order or...

Does anyone use this-primarily at extremes-to fade,etc...in their futures trading? I am already using the VIX but an article stimulated me to think about the actual option IV expansion,shrinkage,etc..as a possible very short term timing tool for the e-minis. Does this make sense? Maybe use...

Yeah he must be pretty smart...getting over 300 subscribers to pay $300 a month produces a pretty nice cash flow I'd say. Did more talking than trading during my membership. 7k for a 4 day mentorship too. If hes so good at trading why is he running a chat room ?(other than the 90k monthly...

Interesting stuff. Do you use the first 10 or 30 minutes to establish the OR? Thx.

I'm torn between these two.See the pros and cons of both. 1-establish 50% position(long)...complete on .50-.75 retracement(if happens). STP whole position say for 1.5 loss. OR- 2-enter half and then complete on mkt. confirmation(eg .50 move in desired direction). Still use 1.5 STP ; scale...

I feel as though its usefulness has declined some possibly due to emergence of so many alternative instruments-ETFs,funds,derivatives,etc... 1- I have seen the mkt.react contra many times to "theoretical" expected behavior at extreme TRIN readings. 2-watched mkt. move counter to the trend of...

Definetly "greek" to me...lol. Guess I'm a long,short or flat kinda guy... Are you guys trying to capture premium erosion or contraction here? BOL...

I've got two of Don Millers courses and Carters book so I am okay with those at this time. Do you have the 3 CD live one?

Hey Riskarb-whats a sigma? Not like theta,delta used in options is it? Thx.

Of Trading Markets recognition...I will be willing to swap or lend this 2003 CD and workbook for comparable material. I have the more recent three day live course and workbook too I will do the same with...once I find it. Just moved. He is good,legit and quite consistently profitable with...
