    Depends on how you define "majority" but when I profile it I get an average of 140, and when I do a typical average (HLC/3) using 1 minute bars, I get about 90. So, I'd say it's easily above 0 the majority of the day. Also, delta steadily rising since the low, and positive for RTH session, and...

    If you had not checked the 24 hour chart today, you would not have seen the overnight low tested to the tick before it reversed! And my best guess is that since one extreme of the ON was tested, that the other will be as well (52s). Without overnight information, all of this is hidden. Just...

    filled on 1st -- with 600+ contracts filled at 48.25, and with me placing the limit very soon after opening the trade, I'll consider this a realistic fill though simming this. stop to 46.00 on the rest

    tortoise, B was referring to the fact that you put 1334, instead of 1344. Just a joke dude.

    At the end of the day, with all of the methods of attempting to predict market cycles, based on whatever method chosen, it seems to me that it's quite fruitless to really try to predict anything. Even analysis of volume, which I use and love, is prone to multiple interpretations and conflicting...

    I could see potentially 39, but that's an interesting conclusion you draw given that we have no scheduled news today, we gapped up, and so far have not exceeded 80% of 20 day median volume yet on the session. In other words, what reason is there to take it past the overnight low, or beyond a...

    You haven't posted crap. You post the same thing every day, but strangely you are absent on days in which you would be waaaay wrong. That's not posting trades. You haven't posted one yet--WTF is this screen shot? Call the trade WHEN YOU TAKE IT, with an ENTRY PRICE minimum.

    True, sim trading is easier than live trading. But a call made in real time is still telegraphing one's opinion of where the market goes, and if it works, the trader was successful, sim or not. Either one of those establishes the trader's intention. Nothing is established as there is no...

    Sorry, but see my last post for why this is the easiest way to fake a call. By the way, I don't doubt you Max, I don't care at all as there are many fakers and many real. It's the fact that you posted so long after it was confirmed in profit. If you're as late as you were, just don't bother...

    Not really, in fact this is probably the absolute easiest way to fake something. I did this in 2 minutes, granted, the font doesn't quite match, but suddenly I have "proof" that I bought quite some time ago and just forgot to post it. There is ONLY ONE (yes) way to PROVE that a trade was...

    what, sitting 7 hours in a 6.50 range, and then having it go 5 points in 15 minutes?

    Yes I know, did you understand that my intent was in agreement with yours? Maybe I should be clear. After 1:39pm, only 253 traded at 35, so it's unlikely there would have been a fill anyway, and even if so, posts made 30 mins after the fact are not particularly convincing.

    And only 253 traded at 35 since it was hit the first time. Sounds like a forgiving (read: unlikely) sim fill to me.
