Thanx for the heads up! Man, you are a determined guy, keeping it up since '97 :-) Just read somewhere in an old thread good advice from someone: If your trading is not profitable yet, keep your amount of trades to a minimum, untill you start getting better results. i always kept as a...

i cannot believe it, not one good trade today. I am going to try and trade only the first hour, for experiment. If i start making money then, i know what's the problem.

La vie douce :-) good luck to you on the greens

I am so bummed out. Do everything right in the money management department. Just my timing is very off.. 12 small losers or be's today, together they add up..

trying to look for a short in the esx. went short at 80

because the bunds have such small ranges compared to the esx/dax, i think you either should have a strategy taking profit from the large tick size, or do longer term intraday trades. Just my impression..

got out of my short at 76. it doesn't show intention anymore to tank.

i have the bunds on my screen. both order book and chart. How would you trade them? they seem rather slow and trends just last a few ticks.

while in danger of "talking my position", I must say the fact that the esx keeps pushing the prev. low level looks bearish

short at 74. i hope this one finally is going to work!

no eurex traders around? esx having some action at the moment, down action! wonder what's it going to do at prevous' day low, prolly break it for a tick or 3 then go back

Good to hear it's funny to someone! Don't know about my nerves. I don't see points as actual money, it's more like keeping score in a game i want to win. (I am never really nervous in trading unless a position is going against me.) I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. While I...

Ok, I am back, you didn't think I quit did you? ;-)

#activetrader at othernet on irc. or activetrader.net or something, forgot what the actual address is.

due to personal affaires not able to update frequently for some time, but i will keep trading. couple of years experience trading, few months in futures. location is southern europe!

done for today, + 20 points esx and -13 points dax. about 150 contracts traded one way (so 300 total). day ended up not that well i admit.. goodevening all

that might be it, thanx

how do you trade the esx during us hours? impossible!! no rhyme or logic. let's say it differently, not yet! yes, es seems to lead, but just when you think you have a nice position, the esx goes the other way.

Believe me, I will make money, maybe even today. Done it before. System is floor trader system. you know, marketmaking. occacionally i also will take trends or other plays

lost 6 ticks since us opening, i just can't believe it how different market is suddenly
