    NQ/ES Pair Trading

    Last time that I was in the ET chat room, I believe Nitro was experimenting with a pairs strategy with ES and NQ. I think he is on vacation right now, so you may want to send him a PM as this thread may get lost before he gets back and sees it.

    How Do Yall Handle the Near Misses?

    IMO near misses are as much a part of trading as losing trades. you have to accept them and move on to the next trade. They are frustrating, but they will happen, even if you start adjusting stops and targets. You may find that by using a larger stop that you catch a couple of extra 4pt...

    How about a specific thread

    All you have to do is start a thread yourself in the relevant forum. Perhaps something like "Software Deals" in the Software forum etc...

    tampa's "short skirt" trades...

    Tampa Now that you are no longer using LBR's Short Skirt, should you not be petitioning Magna for a change of the thread title? Perhaps something like "Tampa's Got Himself a Woodie".

    Baggerlords Journal

    Baggerlord I am surprised that you are trading again today. Last week you lost 75% of your account in one afternoon session and vowed to step back and watch the market with a detached perspective. You also didn't feel that you had any discipline problems while others were seeing different...

    ET gone English-Only?

    Hm. I wonder how I can moderate this thread? http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=18754&perpage=6&pagenumber=3 For all I know they are plotting the downfall of Baron and all the moderators via some sort of underage sex scandal.

    Baggerlords Journal

    Can I also suggest that, as well as study and practice, that you try and get a serious handle on your discipline problem. I have similar problems, so I'm not saying this lightly. Even although you only lost $3G, it was 75% of your account. If you can lose 75% of a $4G account during an afternoon...

    doctors remove man's penis and testicles BY ACCIDENT!

    Yes, but how much would you look for. Whatever would be an appropriate amount should be the same as you are willing to sell your penis and testacles for. I think the financial world has yet to come up with a phrase for the amount I would be looking for. :eek:

    Seabiscuit

    Didn't see the documentary but did see the movie. It was excellent. One of the few times that I can remember a round of applause in the 'middle' of a movie.

    ES points & Dollars?

    ROCK SOLID, yesterday you had problems with Esignal, and myself and Tech Analysis took some time to help you out. Today, someone else is asking for help and all you can do is insult them. Showing your true colors. PS. Sorry for taking this thread off topic but I thought others should be...

    HELP! eSignal won't run on my comp. anymore! :(

    There is a description somewhere on ET for 'completely' uninstalling Esignal. It was from one of the Esignal staff around 4 months ago. If you just do a normal uninstall there are some files left over. It may be one of these files that is corrupted. If I can find the link I will post it. You may...

    Chasing the Bid/Ask with Interactive Brokers

    I can't see why the exit would be any different from the entry. The order would be exactly the same as if you were opening a new short position and chasing the ask.

    Adding contracts to a small losing position

    Averaging in is ok if it is part of your strategy and you have iron discipline. But if you have any discipline problems then it can be a nightmare scenario. I recently was 'experimenting' with averaging in on losers. I was doing ok for a while and managed to bring some losers back to b/e or...
