    Man, your chart looks complex! btw. I also have prosuite 2000. Don't use it, don't know for what.. It's a good idea, I'll give it some thought to what indicators might help me!

    the marketmaker's edge was pretty good. Good general overview, a bit dated.

    I have been putting some thinking in how to distinguish between average and very good setups. Basically it should come down to more indicators pointing in the same direction, OR a panic situation. To add another indicator to my trading (except just trading off other markets and taking the...

    pretty dodgy those currencies not? Myself I was doing pretty well, up 10 ticks, untill I lost a good twenty when the nokia news came out unexpectly for me. So I am down and out, hit my stoploss for the day. Tomorrow another one. I feel more confident though. i could possibly have made...

    how did the currency trades go? I am sure less is more. I don't know how to distinguish between average or very good trades yet, so i just take them all.. How does one distinguish?

    what do you do in a situation like this? You don't want to catch a falling knife. On the other hand, isn't it a bit late to get in short? I suppose the answer is don't look at what it has done, look at what it is doing now. so go short?

    italy bus conf was at 8:30 gmt. it was about 2 points better than expected. the effect on the market was miniscule if any. yes, i've seen uk figures effect the esx! it's all interelated isn't it. the new stoploss measure is working allright. allready 43 rt's though and just 3 points up...

    hey funster! I have just the euro/dollar on my screen, it's pretty volatile too lately! Wonder how late Nokia reports, can't find it on their website. Could make the market move for a good 5 points if unexpected imo.

    Good morning to all of you! Sorry I can't be specific. In comparison to IB I pay higher fixed fee and lower transaction fees. And yes, commissions are still a major factor, so yes, I am still overtrading. I managed to bring my amount of rt's down a lot though. Over- or undertrading seems...

    the plan is to trade only the esx. the bund looks attractive too. I got burned too many times on the dax, so i'll leave that one. I am also going to look for some sector contracts on the eurex. In my experience the less followed markets are much easier to trade. The esx for example is really...

    Good morning folks! Up 10 ticks only 21 rt's. two more ticks and i am up my daily goal. I correctly predicted the upturn, now i am bearish, because the bund isn't downticking anymore. trying to get a good short.
