    IB Margin requirements rising as VIX falls, reaching nonsense levels

    I'm glad they removed intraday margins and I think raising margins in this environment (not just because of the VIX, but because of the pandemic we're in uncharted territory), but at some point this just becomes absurd. That said, lately they've been lowering margins on futures, ES was up to...

    The good thing about spraying in rapid-fire mod is that you tend to hit something. The problem is that you run out of bullets quick.

    If we have a repeat of yesterday's rip down it should be in one minute Edit: it seems today's rip is up, was that like 15 points up in 5 seconds?

    Yesterday they started selling hours earlier. I think tomorrow we'll see lots of red. London, Paris, etc. will be closed on Monday as well.

    Clap, clap, clap! Nice trade, LF. Remember that you can always breathe, re-assess and get in again, regardless of whether price is higher or lower than your exit.

    I was being facetious. What I really meant was that I couldn't find any news that would explain the sudden drop. For I moment I thought maybe Johnson had died or Trump had tested positive, stuff like that. Anyway, who the fuck goes and tells a crew of sailors: "your captain, the one that put...

    Nah, we're just bouncing back between 85 and 55. I thought we we're going to have a real rip - in one direction or the other, if this is it, then I was wrong. Edit: THAT one minute bar is what I was talking about :D
