jessop, why are you treating yourself this way? does it have something to do with your quick success in other fields? trading is different you know... of course the market has to offer a lot on some days - but to believe you can have it all EVERY day is not so good i think. why don't you...

on the ES - 3 times the daily range - that would be about more than 30 pts. or $1.500 per day per contract. that's at least what some dudes claim....

what is "50v" ?

JMowery1987, sorry if this has been asked before, but what about the two moving averages on your charts - why do you need them?

giannos, what was the highest amount you've been down on the positive days? you should read some of the articles you can find under this link - esp. those "when to stop trading ...". i don't know about the results of your former trading months/days - but you clearly need a daily stop loss...

i wanted to bring this thread to life again - anyone hear who trades this way?

it's so funny (or sad?). everytime i come up with some serious questions and considerations the old man hurries to produce another endless row of odd words - a clear sign of an overwhelming fear that his ominous house of cards might sooner or later collapse. this is my last post here - so...

ask any veteran trader who's been around for many many decades and he will tell you that you can NEVER KNOW where the market will go. it's a game about probabilities and experience - you enter a trade based on your strategy - nevertheless everything can happen all the time and therefore you use...

what?? trading with stops is the only way to trade. and you know - there are old traders - and there are bold traders ... maybe your problem is just that you are still so afraid of losses - and everytime someone talks about stops (they are so natural in trading like everything else) - you...

why are you so insecure? the fact alone that you keep telling everybody that you trade futures without any stops speaks for itself. thank you.

and a market order puts your trade in the red by one tick right away.

i just thought this was the deal here - since makosgu told in an older thread that his biggest loss is 1 tick + commission. and this brought up the question for me if he enters with market- or limit order. unfortunately i still got no answer in that thread...

and how long in advance do you usually know when/where you will enter? (do you also trade with 1 tick stops?)

makosgu, easyrider, etc., do you enter your trades with market or limit orders?

volume poor today - right? maybe you should try the Z5 contract.

and what about $$$-evidence for a consistent 3x h-l net result?? (maybe even on one single day)

i find his very interesting - do you enter with a market or limit order? with a market order (buying the ask / selling the bid) - you are down this one tick right from the start - with a limit order (trying to buy the bid / selling the ask) - you might miss most of your entries. just curious...

would someone be so kind to post time and price for entries and exits on ES for sept 6th?

any by the time you would've got the 3rd point - it might have been the end of that channel already - how much higher would the market have to go until you got that 3 rd point? you know - fact is that retracement traders would be in LONG BEFORE you figured out whether this will be a channel...

do you think i'll go away just because somebody likes me to do so? think again - this thread needs some control more than anything else.
