    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    We're going opposite here:) I'm keeping my shorts , volume is still heavier on the down side. Although I might regret it since the buying frenzies seem to come with big spikes.

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    I've been busy with automating TS and IB. I fiddled around with Hyperserver but due to TS imitaions I can't send my protective stop limit orders until the price level is reached. It looks like the upcoming version of Hyperserver will be able to handle it. With all of this excitement going...

    HyperOrder+Tradestation 8+IB

    Is anyone using the above combination without software glitches? Also, is it possible to set real trailing stops that resides in exchange servers using this combo? Tradestation doesn't send the trailing stops until they get triggered and I'm not sure how HyperOrder deals with them. Thanks.

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    My initial short entry was good and trailed it and got chopped. Then went long and chopped too. However, I got in around 1.34 towards the US close, kept it during the Asian session and closed it at the top during the early European session. That saved the day.

    Gringinho, Are you still trading USDJPY? How do the spreads compare to the EURUSD overall? Thanks.

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    I'm getting interested in trading other FX futures too besides EURUSD. However, I will not start trading them until I have a decent mechanical strategy in place. I did more backtesting for Euro futures over the weekend. The results are much less volatile than my real trading. So far testing...

    I'm still short this thing. I think if I were dating a girl last six months, she would have left me by know :)

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    I'm currently short from 50. Although I won't be stubborn with short direction this time. I learned my lesson around 1.30! I ended up getting up very early this weekend, around 4-5 am local time. My body got synched to US open time ;) Ended up doing some testing with Tradestation. My social...

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    I think it starts with the Tuesday day session. But last time, I found out the volume of the new contract didn't pick up (greater than the old one) until Wednesday or Thursday. So I start monitoring the daily volume totals of both of the contracts. When the volume of the new one exceeds the old...

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    We're following the market tick by tick, it's very easy for the big picture to get fuzzy. This is why I'm trying to force myself to use my adaptive trend indicators. The downside is to get chopped once in a while but then that can be stopped by using money management rules.

    I'm been a long time customer so I get some discounts but I think it's $200+Exchange Fees for non-brokerage clients. www.tradestation.com The programming language (Easy Language) is indeed easy to get used to. But it has some strange limitations. However, there are some workarounds. They...

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    Well, I needed this run up after all of the chip chop I got into earlier. Old Chinook would have exited long at 1.3399 and then start shorting full blast over 1.3400 :) Lessons like this have been learned very hard way many times...

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    I'm still trailing this madness. I even scaled in at 26 and exited that part at 41. Edit: I again added at 27. I think this'll pop 50. I have a partial target at 54.
