Hey, DH great to have you back. I always considered you one of the all time great posters here on ET. And I'm not the only one. Your name always comes up when great posters are mentioned. We missed you. :) I'm just starting to post again myself. You know how that is. :) Somehow I missed this...

One other thing about Larry Williams is Larry talked a lot too about the importance of staying in winning positions to reap the maximum profits. This is largely how he did so well the year he made all of that money. And as far as not entering a trade because it's already made a big move...

We do counter-trend trades because the trend trades are too easy a way of making money. Ha :) I read somewhere that traders tend to have a contrarian mind set and that seems to be true. :) That's a good point about hitting your target and then getting back in. Sometimes I think we think, at...

That's good. The compartmentalize point is well taken too. That's why I keep pointing out I'm just learning how these contracts, CL and QM, trade. Every contract trades differently and doesn't even always follow the others. This was part of what I had written the other day but didn't post yet...

And one more point in regard to catching more of the move. I attended a trading seminar by Larry Williams in Las Vegas probably about 10 years ago. Most of you know Larry. He's smart and funny and obviously selling his stuff. And whether you like the guy or not, one thing he pointed out during...

Forgot to mention. Nice trade. Even though it wasn't perfect. Nice trade none the less. :) We all need to examine, as we should in all of our trades, what it is we're thinking when we pull out and leave so much more on the table. Of course it seems to be the opposite of when we're first...

I was looking for that quote by George Soros or whoever it was that was saying it was great to be a pig. :D It's always the trades you only sim trade that have the big moves. This is a fundamental rule of trading it seems. :)

This was my point from yesterday afternoon. It's right there for the taking. Three out of the last 4 days had 300 or so tick moves didn't they? I guess today was only 280 or so. :) And we made a grand total of..............fill in the blank. :) We're working on it. :) Did you take your profit...

USD is hanging tough. http://www.barchart.com/chart.php?sym=DXH11&style=technical&p=DO&d=M&x=84&y=12&sd=&ed=&size=L&log=0&t=CANDLE&v=2&g=1&evnt=1&late=1&o1=&o2=&o3=&sh=100&indicators=&addindicator=&submitted=1&fpage=&txtDate=#jump

I know you feel this is your very own professional strategy you've come up with yourself. And I hate to burst your bubble. But I've used this same strategy before myself. And I once heard of another guy that used it too. And also I've used the similar strategy of "This has run too far, it can't...

Not joining that little pullback of the indices. Looking strong.

Nice. :)

Covered at 90.10 from 90.42. Looking to reshort. Translation = This is going to 92..................kidding. :) Should have flipped it and doubled my pleasure.

I let that move off of the bottom go. It was too easy. :) I like to trade something more difficult and make peanuts. :) Back to trading in a sec. I think the pause before rallying was people taking profits still from last year's move. Happens most every morning the last few weeks.

Came pretty close. :) If I had made that call it would have gone immediately to 94. :)

Are you holding your short still? Hope that worked out or works out. Okay got to go.

I was thinking maybe 90.50 might make a good short. Those reports were really strong today though. All of them. Especially the private sector hiring. And jobs is the most important factor in the economy's rebound. And of course the inventories. BBIB

Here you go. But this may only be a small pullback. We'll see. I have to take off. BBIB.

:) I backed off a bit myself as I thought it might have another leg up. Still looking though. :) I was surprised the market took so long to rally after all the reports were so positive.

Also, as previously mentioned, the ZenFire feed for NT 7 64-bit isn't supported, in case that is an issue for you.
