    Two Accounts with IB Possible?

    You can have account A unbundled an account B bundled. Same ownership doesn-t mean anything each account its a different story. You can even have an account without the same trading permission than the others, I do have one with japanese and german futures and theother only for Us stocks.

    What kind of drawdown percentage is reasonable to you ?

    I think this is different according to the enviroment. In a normal enviroment with low volatility (like we had on 2005-2006) my "allowed" drawdown is about 2-5%. If conditions change and we have increased volatility (like we had the week ago) then 5-10% (of course when volatility steps up...

    Volatility in ES/YM .. anyone notice?

    IMO The most difference is that the bullish '06 end of year was a quiet, silent and easy market to highs with little corretions to the 50 EMA. Right now we have an aggressive acceleration into all-time highs and that works as volatilty trigger creating movement sideways. Of course, the...

    wtf was that at 4pm. huge high vol selling

    What's the big deal about a 5-point drop after the close. That's pretty normal guys, and it's showing the shift on sentiment, that's all, how much times we had 4-5 points up on pre market or ah on no reason. 1480 on SPX should be the next support area.

    I MADE 22k IN 5 DAYS with 11K

    I read that on the S&C ad this month. Amazing that they came up with such stupid ad, this kind of bullshit its really hurting they image instead of giving a good impression. First of all, chart/news/streaming data doesn't guarantee anything and anyone with a least 50 of IQ may know that...

    Buy CL Now! - $70 by Monday

    Although the lack of explanation from the thread starter i think he have something here. Today's close well above 67 break a key level in midterm that could add some momentum for the trend started in the low 50s. I think a good risk/reward ratio trade could be a long position around...
