I don't know how you guys do this posting trades stuff via text, I am more use to immediate voice communication. Most of my trades are just too fast to post, I get a trigger based on the things I use and just take it. Not that anyone directly cares what I am doing yet, I get it. Just most...

Hey, it's all relative right? I think 2800 is pretty conservative compared to ATH . :D

Wow, I forgot it was april fools day. Maybe this down move is just an April fools prank and we'll wake up tomorrow to ES 2800+

I took quick longs, but it's not trades that I can post as they are based on smaller chart and I am actively trading it. But yes, I certainly missed the bigger move waiting for an exact level never works for me, need to just trade the signals as they come. It's more annoying I missed the...

I am not buying 2448 area now, not at 3:00pm. Was interested earlier, too late in the day for me.

Some brokers that have free commission on stocks, will still charge you if you're trading really large size. Also, with futures your leverage is a lot more, even with the increased margins. However, if you're not doing tons of volume and you don't want to trade using much leverage, than...

It's fine.. I don't know how much the moderately successful guy pays the coder, pretty confident it's under $40-50.00 an hour, but I don't know that factually. The one really successful guys pays someone on an hourly basis over $200.00 per hour. I know that factually.

GETTEM FARMERJOHN, I am genuinely impressed you're actually starting to come around and throwing some good punches yourself now.

Just to be clear all the information I gave was based on SUCCESSFUL traders who code and trade. But I don't know of any that do that and have not succeeded. So, it's possible some people can code or know how, but do not mention it to me or I didn't know because what they did wasn't effective.

lol, didn't know you put in a short. I also shorted looking for the 2448.00 ish mentioned earlier only I decided to get out for barely break even after commissions. I am trading like garbage today despite being up decently.

One is moderately successful and pays / paid someone to code for him (but he was successful prior to that using other more standard indicators) Note: He had money prior to trading, so started with relative decent funds. One is extremely successful and started with low amount of funds...

Let's be fair though, technically he is right so far it's acting like a bull trap lol.

No, I am sorry neither of the ones I mentioned use ninjatrader, nor is the coding directly transferable to that platform.

Here's why, because everyone and there brother does buy and hold. That's like the most standard play in the playbook. The point of TRADING (this is elite TRADER) just to make sure you're aware, is because you're looking to beat buy and hold. Otherwise just pay some joker a...

Uh all I can do is give you my own stats (rough stats on exact number of traders I know, it's a lot so I don't have it down to the exact number). I've traded with well over 200 people in my lifetime. I've traded very closely with about 40 of them (meaning spending hours via voice...

Congrats to everyone who kept longing / held there longs. This been one of the most difficult days for me to trade in a long time, or at the least the most frustrating. I've noticed a pattern every time I am looking for a level on a longer time frame, it just freezes me in my tracks...

Than he is going to ask what measurement are you using to determine that. It seems like you guys are using different measurements, therefore if can't agree on the standard to use you won't agree no matter what.

That's the advantage of trading profitably for years and having a lot of gains behind you. My friend is just buying these dips and selling the pops over and over. Even if it goes down 50 ES points, it doesn't effect him at all mentally or financially.

I don't think price holds today and we see at least 2440 on ES, but the way larger charts set up going to be difficult to hold even if it does go up some for here. Would need to be a really big move up or else we'd still sell off later today / tomorrow. Of course nothing is 100% and...

I've been taking some longs in here but stopped for time being, this doesn't look like even close to as good setup as yesterday to be long. ES @ 2440ish I'll look long again. Otherwise if it goes up from here I'll miss it, I just don't see a good place for a stop and don't feel...
