I just wondered if Volente was making a trade, since what he posts seems to be very vague. In this case, he posted a question. I would think that even commentary could be clearer. That said, I'd love to see how this 10 point thing works. I don't think it does unless the data is...

Are you making a trade? OldTrader

OK, covered the other half of my short ES at 1355.25 for just over 10 points profit. So 5 on half, 10 on the other half. Will look at it again tomorrow. OldTrader

Of course, they also got rebates, which may have affected retail sales. OldTrader

OK, I covered half at 1360.50 for 5 points. Holding the other half at this time. OldTrader

For ease of follow-up, I'm short equal amounts of ES at 1364 and 1367. So I'm going to combine them at 1365.50. Again, stop is 1379.00. OldTrader

OK, sold a little more at 1367.00. Stop 1379.00. OldTrader

Sold a small ES position at 1364.00. Initial stop 1379.00. May add to it if we rally more here. OldTrader

He's 78 right now. Why don't you make him a bet he won't see 88? LOL. OldTrader

With a $6K account I wouldn't be trading anything more than 1 contract. OldTrader

You lost $300. How many contracts did you have? OldTrader

Let me know when either of you guys have $40mm. In the meantime, Kirkorian is worth $16Billion+......$40mm is pocket change to him. OldTrader

I think being aware of the news is quite important. Take this morning for example. Pending home sales comes out, suprises on the upside. The market shrugs the news off, and turns lower after an initial burst higher. This is as good as it gets: the market is telling you it's headed...

Good job jagmot. OldTrader

The chances are high that I've been trading without any hand-holding for longer than you are old. But in the meantime, you got plenty of time to make innumerable worthless posts, yet you don't have time to make a post of a real time trade. LOL! My guess is, not only are you a paper trader...

Was there a real time posting of this trade? Of course not. LOL. Another paper trade. In the meantime, no, I did not go long. I'll let you know when I do in a real time post. OldTrader

No, I don't read that kinda shit. I was alread short by the time you got around to noticing someone was selling. LOL. OldTrader

Good trade chuck. OldTrader

You gave a heads-up? LOLOL. Yeah, you made a couple of paper trades because you were "done" for the day. Impressive! OldTrader

Ridiculous. No one is going to go after a few contracts. Now, if you're one of those guys who's trading with a 1-3 point type of stop (I don't know if you are or not), then you're bound to be hit frequently just because of noise. But if you're truly that paranoid, just post a wide stop...
