I am glad that the system I tried to devise has been used by the pros. Unfortunately, it seems that it is not something that could be copied by retail traders and much less nubies like me. Maybe in a distant future I will pul it off, but as for now, it is back to T28's approach which as he calls...

I read the whole post and it seems that HE can pull it off. However, the reason for his success is experience and many battle scars that made him a master trader. I could attempt to implement his way of getting 1/4 filled but it seems to me that to do it, one must be really good at trading and I...

That looks like my dollar!!!!!!!:mad:

The whole thing is a one big learning experience and boy am I learning! In my line of work I am used to being always right, so you could only imagine how I felt when some of you ripped "my system" to pieces. :( I admit, I needed it, to realize that making money trading is not easy by a long shot.:D

I reside in NYC so the internet connection here is pretty good. I would worry about it if I were trading from rural Oklahoma or southern Australia (no punt intended T28 :D ).

It is cristal clear.:)

It is not that I am good at it, but from observing the charts/tape it seems that it is much easier to get "lucky" hitting a fill for 1/4 or 1/2 point than for 3 or 4 points. Basically if you go with the trend the probability of a fill at 1/4 or even 1/2 is much grater in my opinion than for 3 or...

What do you guys think of the following book: Mastering the Trade by John Carter? How useful would it be for scalping ES?

Any more feedback from members who bought this particular set of cds?????

Thank you GTS. I owe you one. Come to think of it I owe you twice. Once again thanx. Saxon:D

These are the books that I have purchased: 1 "A Beginner's Guide To Day Trading Online" Toni Turner; Paperback; $4.95 2 "Study Guide for Come Into My Trading Room: A Complete Guide to Trading" Alexander Elder; Paperback; $16.63 3 "The Disciplined Trader: Developing...

It seems that the markets wiggles a lot within 1/4 to 1/2 range, so I was under the impression that it would be possible to shave a 1/4 with relative ease. As you correctly stated "Noise scalping is stressful ,and commission intensive. Only worth doing when you can" ... pull it off. I could...

It SEEMS to work best with 1 min chart and a tick chart, especially during the lunch hour. Disclaimer: I have only tried it on a sim.

Shhhhhhhhh. Adults are having a conversation. Grab a play station and play quietly in your room. :p :cool: :) :D

As always your post is both eloquent and intelligent. You must be a charming chap, I have no doubt about that.:D :D :D Btw, next time, could you use standard english? I am not privy to pseudo- english you seemed to picked up in the outback.:D :D :D :D

I am trying to learn it. I am not a gambler and yes as stated in many of my posts I have yet to put on a trade. However, I have never stated that I wanted to do 200 lot trades right from the bat. I provided this particular number since it is a well known fact that extreme scalping is done going...

More bad news:eek: :( :( :( :(

I am aware that my questions are not the most sophisticated ones. That is because I am an infant in this field. I enjoy and appreciate honesty but only where there is logic behind it not malice. Furthermore, I like your analisys as to why some of the posts had been harsh. Painful memories are...

That was actually my next move come december. I first want to finish the stack of books I think I should devour before even taking the IB sim step. Thank you for the info.
