It's likely that's where your key problem lies. You must have a rationale for your setup that has a clear line between success/failure, and I'm not simply talking about chart lines or S/R. The reason for this is that your "stops" become very clear; you will eventually find that placement...

Same here, except I often fade it as well :)

What time does this market close EST on Fridays? I assume it's not 24/5 like globex.

Still having problems -- I thought it might have to do with settings on my IE but I get the same thing on 2 separate puters.

When I enter my login/password, the site just refreshes and my password disappears . . .

Anyone else having trouble logging into account management at their website?

While on the topic, why the proliferation of multiple ecn's in equities, as opposed to a single electronic platform such as Globex for futures? Wouldn't a unified platform facilitate liquidity for all players? Is it just a matter of time?

Do prop traders get nervous when they see huge drops? Even if they are enjoying the volatility, don't they get nervous about their fellow traders getting "stuck" in positions?

Ah-so. Can nothing be contained then if brokers and banks on the clearing end of these hf's are on the hook as well?

Isn't this the point of today's market structure? That risk is spread out over a number of funds and that those who bet wrongly will bear the pain? Why should this news be negative for the market as a whole?

"Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are...

Bourne Ultimatum so much more satisfying . . .

Funny, given the many markets one can trade, how so many settle upon forex . . .

I don't think alot of prices shown on weekends are trustworthy, I saw a couple places where GBP was supposed to have spiked 500 pts.

Your original statement is all semantics, much like "the more the markets change, the more they stay the same." You'd probably say that Richard Dennis didn't know how to trade either. Markets have evolved over time and keep evolving, to say that only speed of movement has changed is...

If only it were that easy to say everyone else who disagrees has no edge . . .

Can someone tell me the chords for the song Ceremony by New Order, especially in the chorus? Is this in the key of F? The tabs I found on the net don't seem to sound right.

Maintenance margin is slightly less for positions already held (which would apply in your case), as opposed to initial margin for opening a position.

This approaches the equivalent of asking "How does one make a good painting?" or "How do you write a good song?". There are so many angles to approach it, what works now might not necessarily work tomorrow -- the best advice imo is just to spend a few thousand hours looking at the market you...

Planned scaling in a position is not what I was referring to, that is predetermined for the trade and still has "timing" behind it, albeit in staggered execution. Adding to a position, just so you can lower your mental TP to "get out even" etc, is more what I had in mind. But you must ask...
