    How's the ES lately?

    Why would I be concerned. Your post means nothing to me. YOU mean nothing to me. Your inability to make a point tells me that you are agitated for reasons unknown to me. Frankly I could give a shit. You want to go postal on someone?, go outside and step on ants, you mental midget...

    You got it right. This is nothing more than spam. Really too bad. Even if I was curious, I would have to pass now that they choose to market the product this way. Unfortunately this has become typical of Trading Markets. They used to exercise good judgement in the marketing of products over...

    Michael: Thats just plain silly. You're an intelligent man. Before the moderator erases the first posts, print them out. Everything you need is right there. Arzoo didn't have any problem with my explanation. As I mentioned to Rickty, I dont feel any resemblance to your mothers :D I like...

    How's the ES lately?

    Yes thats the fascinating thing about the creative spirit. Sometimes we bend the rules, and the bean counters get mad. Sorry to have inconvenienced you. Moderator, if you would erase my posts, then everyone can get on with their work on the ES contract. You are right I apologize...

    How's the ES lately?

    Cleaned up version of the first two charts As shown in the text, if you took that short with 3 contracts It would be reasonable to think that you could have closed it out for 2 points x 3 contracts x $100 =$600 less commission. I think this would be acceptable money for a retail trader...

    How's the ES lately?

    Of course, but you can see what happened already vol died way down. I would be long above the high of the day Short below the low Just one caveat. Always take a look at a chart with 30 min candles and scan left. If you do you will see where price has previously been halted as buyers or...

    How's the ES lately?

    Okay then, I got out with 1 point scalp on three contracts again this is not realtime. I just can't take care of business and do all the typing necessary to post it in time. Take it for what its worth. I will post the rationale when I get a moment. Refer to the comments in earlier posts...

    If You Were Convinced ?

    well sir: If I were part of the smart money crowd, the right thing, the "smart thing" to do would be not to own up that it in public. Also it would be stupid to share any insight with you, as you also seem to be a member of the dumb money group. On a more interesting topic. I notice...

    If you have a revolver, of .32 caliber or less (a .25 would do just as well), point it at the case and fire several times.. That should fix the problem. Permanently Good luck Steve

    If You Were Convinced ?

    Simply asking the question suggests that you are in the "dumb money" camp, so one approach would be to find out what you would do and take the contra side of that trade. :D I hope you don't take it personally, as it makes good sense to be on the contra side of any trader asking this...

    Good Trading Quotable Quotes

    My favorite trading quote is as follows: "Don't touch F1, I have it programmed to...I said don't touch that.....no, NO, Noooo!!! Dammit.... What is wrong with you!!!! This quote from my mentor more than 13 years ago, as I "inadvertently" bought 30 million in what used to called "D...

    self-sabotage

    I shouldnt have to say this, but the "trading wussies" post is a joke folks....:D Please don't get pissed at me. I really don't think of you as wussies. (well....let me think about that one a little bit). Believe me, if my grandmother calls, suddenly I start to resemble a wuss myself.

    How's the ES lately?

    Good luck Therer is one last think, and I want to tie this into the first interchange between me and Bronks Again it is VERY DIFFICULT to estimate changes in volatility accurately. I wasnt just being a pain in the ass. It is almost impossible to do consistently on the fly. This is why I...

    How's the ES lately?

    Well, there are two approaches to this problem Professionals call the first one "holding through the pain" As the name implies, you are trying to hold on while price is correcting and depending on your risk tolerance, you may experience the pullbacks, retracements, etc as "painful" If...

    How's the ES lately?

    So heres a last chart. Again just check out the way the DDF is respected by the bars (candles) that follow the opening candle. Here again I would be going short ASAP to try to get on board early. Getting on board early on this day (and holding) means you make about $1,000 per...

    How's the ES lately?

    Sorry I didn't give all the background "DDF" means Directional Day Finder.... This is a term coined by Dr. John Clayburg. It is also referred to by Josh Lukeman in his book "The Market Maker's Edge". Finally the DDF is a concept that is used by professional traders (has been used for years)...
