What do you think you're actually contributing here? What have you done recently?

I didn't become a millionaire by trading. And, yes, a millionaire would test out things on paper trading lol.

Strangers on a forum? Lol. Plus, if you listen close, I've actually said I planned to reduce the # of contracts by the time I try to make it a real plan. But nobody pays attention to that lol.

I am a millionaire.

I have also learned to ignore the first 3-5 minutes because that could be "deleveraging" of people's trades. Look at where ES was at 8:30am and look at where it ended the day. The price movement was due to one fact only - the 8:30am NFP report. But I definitely agree with everyone that 100...

That's not enough to justify doing this long-term as opposed to home building.

I've done this several time with 6 contracts on Schwab, making $2-3k in an instant.

If you wait until after the news release, how is picking red or black? After it starts moving, it will more than likely keep moving in that direction.

I had been doing 6 contracts on Schwab. So that's my baseline

You're right. I should have shut it off after $60k win. I'm wondering what if I have 2 orders, one above and one below. One cancels the other, and which ever it hits, that has a profit target 10 points above/below. If anything can be predicted about those news release days, it's that the...

My next chance will be Thursday for the CPI release. That will just be paper trading as well. I'm really hoping to eventually make a real money strategy out of this.

I've been waiting for this day ever since I moved over to NinjaTrader. This was the first major news release day since moving there and having the increased leverage of $500/ES contract during day trading hours. (As opposed to the $14,300 I had at Schwab). I basically bought 100 contracts...

My losses of approximately $100k profit per house? Haha. Loser.

1. You started this thread. You're also the one keeping it going. 2. Most of my money is in real estate development projects. 3. $25k of $40k? I have no clue what you're even referring to.

I think we found the king of the Internet trolls.

Great. Now I'm blocking you.

It means he blocked you.

At zero leverage, then technically anyone with a large bank account has a large Forex account currently invested in USD (assuming you live in the USA).

In 2023, company earnings and unemployment data will move markets in a larger relative proportion than CPI and FOMC rate decisions. As opposed to 2022.
