When does trading roll over to the September contract on the 6E?

Thanks...that did it...might explain my complaint late Friday too. Haven't been trading the 6E very long, now trading it in addition to the ES. I remember about 4 years ago I got all messed up on the ES rollover too when I first started out.

Attached is my 5 min 6E. Doesn't look normal to me.

Its Sunday evening, and the Euro-FX has traded like 15 contracts in the 1st 45 minutes. Although there isn't a ton of volume on Sunday evening, this is well less than average. As I stated in the post previous, we saw some the market die (again) in the last 1/2 hour on Friday.

Dude...don't you just love the 6E? Soooooooo much better than spot. I use a 5 or 6 tick stop and go for 10 to 15 ticks depending on the time of day and how fast the market is moving.

I think they took a crap again...around 4.33 PM Eastern time. Still had around 27 minutes until close.......

My first trade was shorting 5 ES contacts. I was up 3 points per contract, decided to buy and cover, and somehow screwed up the order. I ended up winning on the trade, but somehow Trade Station's arcane order entry system (at the time....broswer based) screwed me up. Kind of funny how I...

Eur-FX futures closed at 1 PM Eastern. Minis closed at 11.30 AM Eastern. What data should you be getting?

Yes Jay....I talked to a live rep and the problem was fixed.

Mine dropped at 14:28:02 Anyone else?

yes...its just the 6E

Here we go again... Mike starts a nice topic and suddenly it gets off course. And then several posters piss off many others in the process. Now that is a real shocker! Good ole Elite Trader. Where the Hell is the moderator?

I agree. The women traders I know don't necessarily think they "know it all" and can put egos aside. I think they are also more patient too.

I meant the 2nd Thursday of the expiration month...see, I made another mistake!

My stupid mistakes tend to be super aggressive trading when I am significantly up for the day. I used to throw away profits because of my "playing with the house's money" mentality. Thankfully I don't go down that road much anymore. I am also embarrassed to say that I have forgotten to roll...

Volume Price bars offered in e-Signal and Ensign. For example, lets say you trade the ES. Every 1000 (for example...can be any number you choose) contracts traded you will get a new bar.

It would have been a massive surprise to me if we did see movement today. It is always like this before a holiday.

I have heard nothing but great things about Refco.

What are you trading? The last 4 days on the minis have been amazing. This market excites me.

If I knew things were going to Hell, absolutely sure of a Depression or something along those lines and I knew when it was going to happen, then I would buy gold and silver...as much as I could..and then sell when gold gets to $5,000 per oz. (things would really have to get shitty), sell out and...
