Long here 1354.50, on a weak retest. If we dont see a quick bounce I will be exiting. 2pt stop 10pt target Edit: Ok exactly what I was looking for. Stop to BE Edit: Taking most of my profits here +4.5. Leaving 1 runner for the final target. The market looks like it is stalling and...

Thats what I was wondering...some of bush cronies while he's signing the bill :) I'm looking for another short entry but haven't found it yet so far.

stopped out -3

Exiting here +1.5. I'm going to look for another entry after the lunch chop is over. If it wasnt lunch I d just move my stop to breakeven. I'm exiting because the 5 min reversal bar (1245est)didn't help. Edit: 105pm est if we can get to 62.5, I ll be back short as the 4:1rr will now be too...

we must be trading pretty similiar as I am short here as well on what looks to be a triple top. 1360.5, 5 point stop, 10pt target not as good rr but i will let 1 run if it gets past the target.

Long here as well 1353.50 with stop at 1349.50. 3:1RR Edit: I forgot to mention that this is not a system trade, consequently this is only a half sized trade. I'm making this trade because the action reminds me of days of the slow grind/staircase up and expect new highs sometime in the last...

Thx JSS&King. Nice catch of the big move up JSS. I wasn't able to get a good rr entry this morning. 02-07-08 10:47 AM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote from jagmot: Definitely didn't expect the move to be this swift in ICE or CME...

1 quick short here at 1341.50, 2 point stop, 6 point target. I ll be aggressive closing this out as I'm not holding overnight. I ll follow with edits on why I made this trade. Edit: This is a trade based off the 5 min charts. What I see is a touch and complete fade from the 1:30PM EST bar...

You could just as easily ask that the pit move to quarters from tenths... I like the ES contract as is. I don't need/want my DOM to be 300 lines vs the currently 120. It is one of the reasons I don't like trading YM. That and it is spikey.

KPT, I never was bloomberg certified, just because I didn't have the time working as a grunt 60-80 hours a week. They also offered it to us free as we had an account/terminals. So don't let free entice you too much. If you have the time, it is definitely worthwhile, but also make sure you...

I still haven't figured out why I get charged sometimes. Been with IB since 2001 although the policy was implemented in 2004 or 2005.

Don't worry I had a few profitable shorts this morning. I usually can't post realtime in the morning. Rather than coming in here and saying hey I was short from 40 (when the market is at 32) looks dumb on my part.

Putting out a long here at 1324.50. Tight stop looking for 10:1 RR. (Not filled yet) Edit: Just got filled Take a look at the 15 min chart and you can see 3 bar reversal (1pm EST) before one bar to clear out all the stops just below those bars. I think we head up from here. If I'm...

They all have dreams of becoming millioniares overnight.

Long here 1338.25 stop just under breakout low from 1:25EST. 3:1RR Edit: ugh stopped me out to the tick.

Definitely didn't expect the move to be this swift in ICE or CME today either. I'm looking at possibly writing some calls on my ICE position at the close today as the March 150s are at $4.50 here.

Definitely, good point. I used to have access to Bloomberg before I moved out on my own. I ve been using Reuters Plus for a while but its definitely not as good.

Same with ICE, down big from the DOJ report. I'm holding ICE long back to 150. When I'm bottom fishing like that, I'll buy in 3 lots. Fortunate that I barely got my second lot at the close yesterday. Edit: Did the same thing with AAPL, although my last buy was at 121.60. I trade both...

Volume is bearish here, looking to short here (half position, currently flat) at 1366.50 if we can get there for a short. 1pt stop, target 1360. Edit: most of the big volume was on the bid side, hence exiting long and looking to get short. Didn't get executed on the short and am currently...

I m long here as well 1363.75 on what looks to be a breakout to HOD. Stop at 1361.75 Trailing as well, stop 1 tick above BE here Not liking the action was expecting a big breakout. Out here at 1365.75. I will be looking for reentry.
