Managing your expectations. Avoid trying to be the best. Avoid trying to be right. Avoid focusing on making money.

Your goal shouldn't be that. Your first goal should be not to lose any money. If you can achieve that, you'll be better than most of the guys that are trying. Then, in your subsequent goal, maybe thinking to start to make some. But starting to think to make 5%/day is the best way to fail.

It's a credit, so you meant that it went down to 0.55 I presume. Not sure what the column named 'Mark' really means here, but for sure, it doesn't represent the bid-ask market. And remember that this is a credit spread, so with negative prices. So credit 0.20 is higher than credit 0.25. I'm...

LOL...Too much beer today San!

You're doing click-trading and you're complaining about 1-sec order execution response time? There is so much going-on between the time you click and the time you see the trade appears on your screen. I used to use IB API to trade Futures at CME (fully automated trading), and the round-trip...

If it was a trade of a Price Improvement Auction, then both counterparties were the same broker.

You have generated 120% return? Yearly, monthly, over x period? Trading what? Paper trading, or with real money? The 07 to 09 crash, but what about the rest? We need more meat here.

Just a great time to open you wallet and collect some dough.
