Spot on! Microsoft is going downhill from now on. They always have been a one product company and have failed to innovate. All they have managed to do is "window dressing" but no gain in productivity for the end user, on the contrary, only gain in the amount of maintenance and downtime...

MicroShit has been wanting to do this a long time and this is where recently they had patch on XP where the "activation of malicious code" comes in. Next thing is they'll switch it of if they "are of the opinion" that you run an illigal copy. "Have to protect our intellectual property". Yeah...

Awful chart :eek:

No, makes not much difference. It is only that I am using the Globex data for my own charting. Some trades I use spot, some trades I big contracts. But for longer term charting I use the mini contract because it has less load on the charting package. Hope this helps Maria

I do not like to be held to ransom by Mshit with their "activation codes". You rebuild a PC and have to reinstall the software (new HD, etc etc) and then you will have to ring up for reactivation of office. "You are running illegal copies, no we do not give a new code to you...". What a bunch of...

Trend is in place until broken. I only posted it to figure out where empee was entering because I do not see a logical point where I would enter his longer term trade of the year. (by the way: this is not what I use for my trading) As far as I am concerned there was a risk of going...

No, it is called "bait and switch". That's why anticipation does not work. Maria

Where do you enter? If the channel goes down you enter at the high turn around location, you do not enter at the bottom? Like the rebound was not a big suprise.......it hit the lower band of the channel.... Shortly we may go down again.... Maria pssst you notice the horizontal S/R...

There are converters to port it automatically to C#. The big question then becomes: how easy to go from C# to C++? Maria

wooaaa! back above the support / resistance again! VERY interesting, should have listened to my hunch and gone long. But like Darvas: listened too much to the "noise".... I will have to distance myself from the noise level here on ET.... M. edit: Now a big hammer for today and a hammer...

More and more am I wondering if we are dealing here with a fake breakout. Time will tell me in due time, just sitting tight and watching. Fascinating and great information to be gained here! :cool:

So are you saying that the trades were generated by robots and not stops that were triggered? Thanks M.

Then you have "matured" and have your emotions under control. Well done! But the big question is (and at the end of the day that is the only thing that is important): Are you correct on the direction of the market and making money? :cool:

Question: just saw in 1 second about 80 trades go through (03:20:05 CST). (several hundred in a period of less than 5 seconds). What is causing such a rush of trades, are this robots or stops triggered? Thanks Maria

MicroBrown Matter(starts also with an S and ends with a t and the two letters between the S and the t are also a common greeting :D) has the legacy of attempting to "test" quality into their product. Hence a beta rollout to 80000 users. But having such a large beta test group implies...

When a boy is on his first date then when he touches the girl (or gives her a kiss) then some parts of his anatomy may take on a life of its own. Similarly in trading: When there is a large sudden move greed and panic take hold of some traders (they get jumpy) and they just cannot help...

Although the big money is in the longer timeframe I am not tied to it. It is the Reward : Risk ratio of the immediate moment and in which channel I see an opportunity. Much like Jack Hershey is advocating in his "maximum money velocity". My system has not given a confirmation that we...

Mentioned that I do not use stop limit. I went out when the upwards move stalled and then started to retrace at 77. Proceeded to place two stop sell orders: one at 60 and the other at 55. Thought a 10 pip profit target was justifiable. As it turned out I got filled at 55 & 50 and got out at 21...

Yes, we cannot override our system because then we do not have a system. Even if we feel that we are 100% sure it will go the opposite way and will result in a loss. Have learned that lesson at great expense: Have the discipline to stick with the system. Good trading to you, Maria

I hear what you are saying but I am trading the system that is in place. And that system tells me that there is a likelyhood of a long term divergence, in other words the downtrend is potentially over. I am only looking at the setup and the R:R, nothing more, nothing less. And one of the...
