I appreciate your detailed reply. I will definitely enjoy following this thread. Thanks.

Seems like a job requirement for the ladies at CNBC. :)

NihabaAshi, Thanks for the reply. I was wondering if you have a particular post, thread or journal that explains your most common setups and your style. You have a lot of posts and it would take a lot of time to get to the basics. Can you point me to the right place so I can get some...

Interesting way to rate women. I guess it all depends on what you want her to bench; for some 25 pounds is enough. :D

A couple of questions of interest: 1. Your chart shows [15] as your time interval but it is actually a 5-min chart (at least according to my charts). Does that [15] represent the time interval or am I incorrect in that assumption? 2. It looks like that position was taken at 19:45 CET...

Not even Theuriau? Put on your Coke-bottle-bottom glasses and have another look. :D

The sad thing is that you can use it all for door stops in about 2.5 to 3 years.

In my reply above, I neglected to say "I never hold overnight...." Whether someone does or not depends heavily on their trading plan and risk tolerance.

I strongly believe that you should start with $5000 simulated dollars in a real time account some place. Pay the exchange feeds for 2 months or so and see where you end up. This should only cost you about $50 or so. You will then be able to assess for yourself how much money you need. Futures...

I think the best websites for futures beginners and pro's alike are the exchange sites. I especially like the CBOT website. It is so full of everything from the basics to advanced strategies for their products. The knowledge there does not have to apply just to their products and it is free. I...

Each emini contract is worth $50 x the S&P Stock Index + basis. This puts each contract value at around $62,000. If you weren't trading on margin, you would need that much cash in your account to trade it and would be liquidated as soon as it downticks.

Glad it worked. You might want to burn that computer in for a couple of hours using one of the many test products available free online. Run the video test continuously and turn off your monitors for a couple of hours. If it locks up, then expect some surprises and keep you broker's trader's...

Futures markets are a lot more efficient than equities markets, in my opinion (I have traded both). It is not possible to practice on a size less than a 1-lot, so it costs more to trade it with a lower edge (assuming you are not a member of that exchange). I think in either case, you might want...

ATI cards have done this for as long as I can remember. They are very picky about what they work with. What you might want to do is to first download the latest drivers for each of your cards and put them on the harddrive ready to install. Next, remove all cards but the nVidia AGP. Install the...

ONE That is.... until you "friend" is completely consistent and has developed flow with that market. Don't go into the ES thinking that you have experience and that you should swing for the fences. Expect to spend at least a couple of months to figure out how that product reacts and gets...

OK. I got it. The filename ends with .ZIP for some reason when it should end with .DOC. After downloading it, I manually changed the extension and voila! I will check it out...... still waiting for the list that you mentioned in the other thread. Thanks.

Grob, I am not sure why but none of your attachments open once downloaded. What are you zipping them with?

Kiwi, I agree with you on the 1pt moves requiring much more time. I actually have had to switch to taking my entire size in the first two ticks in the FDAX because scaling in has been costly. Every move has everyone pushing the other way now and ranges have dramatically decreased... to the...

Dude.... have another look at Theuriau. I think God only put people like her on earth to make us all feel like schmucks for being married and not in showbiz. :D Give me a break Glick is the most beautiful of the CNBC bunch, but she is about 30 pounds and several adjustments away from Theuriau.

In my experience, I have come across 4 people who have defended this approach aggressively. Only 1 is still trading and he is now doing spreads and doesn't do this any more. As long as the zone is defined and a stop is present outside this zone when you know you are wrong, then this might...
