    I do not like people

    well at least in business. I am kinda anti-social, I think most traders are. Unfortunately I have a "real job" and I have to interact with people all day every day, and basically most people are a pain in the ass! I pray that some day I can be a full time trader and be a total recluse and...

    Index Futures in the Off-Hours

    Is anyone trading ES,NQ,YM, etc... outside of the normal Chicago session? I have stayed away due to low volume, but someone I respect is encouraging me to look at the hours of 2:00AM - 5:00AM Cst (12-3 in Cali) for good opportunities. I believe that is the opening in London. any thoughts?

    Anyone using ATR for trade decisions for NQ

    well, I guess the best way for me to answer is to first tell you what I used to do. I had no defined exit on trades, stop loss was not a problem, but exit at profit was. I cannot tell you how many darn trades would go to profit and then my failure to take profits would result in a break even...

    Averaging down in day trading - when to take a loss?

    Oh boy,, I used to do this,, NO MORE for this guy... I got it wrong, the entry did not work out... I am like Xela, take the loss and move on, no need added more money, to me that's like trying to prove to the market that I was right after all. and like others have said, it can become a...

    My Experience using Bitcoin for a Real Purchase

    hate to say I told ya so,,,,, but I did,,, I said this would be the exact demise of the Crypto Crap,, the Federal US Government has be positioning for this for awhile,, very similar to the way they shut down online poker in US,,, their claim is that Crypto's are a way to launder money and/or...

    Who can match AMP Futures? - can not find a better offer

    I am filling out the online application and switching to AMP... yes the pricing is the best, but what really sold me is the customer service I have already received. They are easy to get on the phone or for online chat to answer questions.

    The S&P 500 has topped at 2430 on 6/1/17

    I agree with you. But I think once a big correction gets underway, which basically would be the correction from the "Trump" run up... look out cause I think it could gain alot of momentum and be like a 20% or more correction... This market is so sensitive to any little thing to go lower. A...

    My Experience using Bitcoin for a Real Purchase

    precisely why this Crypto Crap is NOT going to get widely accepted. A hedge fund manager said it best when he said last month "it is a solution looking for a problem" We have no need for it, at least not a universal need. I will say it again,,, it is just a hyped up mania and will crash hard.

    Anyone using ATR for trade decisions for NQ

    The only thing I am really sure of,,,and keep in mind this is for me and my trading, might not be for everyone.. is a stop, I mean a hard stop in the computer as a stop-limit order at a 5-7 point loss for NQ, 5 can be too tight sometimes and 7 does keep me in more trades... the exit is still...

    Anyone using ATR for trade decisions for NQ

    I just cannot go there... 3X would be at least 12 points on average... ATR can run from a low of 2.5 to a high of 9...seems to run around 4-6 most of the time... I just couldn't stomach a 12-18 point stop.... I am comfortable at 5-7,,,that's $100-$140 loss allowed per trade per contract

    Anyone doing Collective2 ??

    Guys. I'm talking about being a trader who posts his trades on the site and collects a fee. Has anyone done this ? It's kinda like running a trading room without all the interaction

    Anyone doing Collective2 ??

    I said I would never again manage money for other people... everyone is your best friend until there's a draw-down or just crappy conditions. But Collective2 (who advertises on this website) has a pretty neat offering. Sounds simple enough, they are tied into my trading account, and for...
