The guy is interested in trading futures so I say go with a large well established firm. What's the alternative other than trading something else or not trading?

If you trade with a large established firm I think the risk is minimal. If you are that risk averse you probably should forget about trading because risk is the name of the game.

No, not the same. Many types of futures accounts are not insured.

Analysis paralysis.

It seems to me that you cannot have an entirely indictor based system and that some descretion separates the winners from the losers.

lol. I'm startin' to like you mate.

The illustration is a little fuzzy and I cant read the labels but I am assuming that your stretch squeeze chart is INDU over YM with a histogram below showing the difference. May I ask what software you are using to do this? This looks like an excellent way to track it and I would like to...

Can you please tell me how much you will let a trade move against you before bailing? Three out of those four crosses were pretty iffy if you waited for the zeroline cross.

Can you show your trades for the day?

Four trades for me today. All shorts. Two BE's, two small winners for 30 pts. Seldom trade after lunch.

Can you tell me how you arrived at 10 minutes as the optimal time to time out? I have thought about incorporating this into my exits for awhile.

The first one was pretty simple. This one is a bit more complex.Comments appreciated. <img src="http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=1191895">

Trader28 Can you tell me where you would have entered and exited this one? tia<img src="http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=1191880">

Great. I am looking forward to it. Will you call them here?

So far I havent been able to find anything that works consistently and I have looked at many, many crossover systems that people lay out here in vague terms and have yet to see anybody give any proof that they are using it successfully. The crossovers lag the price by whatever mas you are using...
