    waggie, come on man you are attempting to defend this guy in wake of his glarring long squeeze. depending on what MA you are using on your weekly YM chart this "bull mkt" is in serious jeopardy. it is not good when the mkt touches/test the MA like that. smart $$$ says that we break the MA and...

    Sorry waggie, all that is is a self fulfilling prophecy. the daily charts are oversold so a correction within a few days is not that hard to fathom. no real genius in that my friend. the question will be if the market can get back above the trend line MA? im not so sure that it will.

    S&P correction

    don't forget that the fed has already pumped in 13+ interest rate cutes in the past few years that have now so-called made their way through our monetary system by now hence the stock market recovery since the beginning of the war in Iraq. i'm not a believer in fed monetary policy as the...

    YM in a Can

    hi michael, seems to me that you would be spinning your wheels with the stop and reverse feature? my point being that if your initial direction was off and you got stopped out re-entered the market you could very easily become a victim of the intraday phenominon of low volatility price...

    E-mini liquidity for scalpers

    there is no such thing as "slippage" on a limit order. a limit order is your price or better or you are not filled at all. the only way you would be slipped on a limit order would be if you were placing a stop-limit order and your stop price was different than your limit price.

    YM in a Can

    mr savant, have you considered that you are simply achieving the same results as other pivot point mechanical systems? I see no real advantage of the entry points other than quick scalps but you will see that if you used that strategy this morning on the ES you would have been stopped out...

    E-mini liquidity for scalpers

    there is no slippage on a stop-limit order if both the stop price and the limit price are the same. its either your in the mkt at your price or better or not at all. that is why i use stop limit orders on the nq and es. cant do that yet with the ym you gotta use regular stops.

    Attack on ET members beware

    i believe that the personal attacks that go on here are way out of line. for instance the traderbrad fiasco: he was exposed as being a liar and a fraud. that was his fault. but the personal attacks against ET members that only give personal opinions is wrong. we are supposed to be a community...

    1st_samurai's trading thoughts

    you are probably diversifying a bit too much? it is much better to master '1' commodity at a time if you are trying to developed a volatility based system. however if you are well capitalized i.e. you are working with an account size of atleast $100k then i guess at the rate you are going you...

    E-mini liquidity for scalpers

    also due to lack of liquidity at the 50 lot and 100 lot levels you could be sitting there with partial fills quite often.:( its just the changing of the times in GLOBEX my friend. this aint the 1990's anymore. scaleability is a real issue in this day and time.

    E-mini liquidity for scalpers

    i think it depends on how you are going to be entering or exiting your positions? i.e. limit orders , stop orders or mkt orders? i can tell ya that on some of my nibbble trades = one lots in the emini sp 500, i can sit there for up to 45min waiting to get a fill on a limit order as the mkt...

    How do YOU trade a Trading Range ?

    When intraday trading it IS necessary to take into account the probability of an intraday trend developing inside of the current Major trend. Example: If the TASR is in a "bullmarket" and lets say that this uptrend is overextended and due for a pullback. On an intraday basis the stock may...

    "FREE" mentor for NEWBIES

    He has made me money and many others here at ET. What have you done for me lately? why do you care what T-REX does? You are just jealous of his trading ability being superior to yours? If you can do better and make me even more $$$ then I'm all ears. If not then you are simply...

    How to find a mentor?

    I guess it all comes down to this: Why are you in the market? (1.) To make $$$ (2.) because you think you can figure it out? If you answered #1 then simply find someone who is winning and trade along side of them. If you answered #2 then good luck to you but I don't think you will...

    "FREE" mentor for NEWBIES

    what difference does it make if he said "exciting", "new", "free", or garbage? He has made me money and many others here at ET. What have you done for me lately? and why do you care? are you jealous of his trading ability being superior to yours? If you can do better and make me even...
