Shorted KLAC, NVLS, and the YM. But I felt so unpatriotic doing it...NOT :D -FastTrader

Perhaps it's time to pick up a PC and make life simpler :D -FastTrader

Congratulations! You're the first person on my Ignore List :D -FastTrader

You confirm your own ignorance by posts like this. I highly doubt anyone here bases their actual trades on your trading calls. -FastTrader

You sound as if you were the only one shorting today. And I could care less about your calls. -FastTrader

Whatever Romeo. I'm almost certain I will be shorting the market in the first half hour tomorrow. You can call me whatever you want. In case you were wondering, this is a "traders" board. -FastTrader

Define "a bunch" :D -FastTrader

I break this one everyday. I trade the open fast & furious. Most of my profits are made off the open. Good thing that's not one MY rules :p -FastTrader

I use tickcharts in eSignal Pro. I use a 25 Tick chart though. -FastTrader

I'll trade whatever the charts tell me to trade. If market's going down, I will be shorting. There's nothing "unpatriotic" about it. -FastTrader

elindydotcom, I appreciate the link and the information, but what I'd really like is for people to post their own personal rules that they use on a daily basis. Thanks, -FastTrader

When you guys get some time, please see if you can post some trading rules on my post here: List of Trading Rules! Thanks, -FastTrader

Hi, I'd like to get a general list of trading rules which could apply to any strategy. I'll start the list with some rules that I try to follow: 1. Take trades in the direction of the larger trend. Since I'm strictly a day-trader, the larger trend to me is based on 10 min and 60 min. charts...

Was an UP day for me till my little afternoon YM adventure. Ended the day -$120 :( -FastTrader

Ahh, OK. Thanks for the clarification. Why is the Dec. trading so much lower? -FastTrader

Good thing I exited my stupid 9459 long position when I did :eek: -FastTrader

Sorry to hear that. Went to the doc and he said it's probably allergies since I visited him last year right around the same time (9/12) and had allergies. Talk about a "trend" :D Before I left, doctor tells me he'll see me again next year right around this time :p -FastTrader

Thanks for your insight. I usuallty don't scale into YM positions since I'm in and out. How much of difference do you recommend for scaling in? Every 20 pts? -FastTrader

1. My eSignal charts weren't working, but I traded anyway. I used my other charting platform and was watching the cash index. I should have stayed out since one of my tools was not working. 2. Went against the trend. It was very clear to me that if the market was going anywhere, it was down...

I had a problem today where my all of my minute charts except the 1 min. were not showing properly....price bars were extremely small...couldn't even make out what it was. Almost looked a horizontal line. 1 min and Daily chart was working fine, but the 3,5,10,60 were not working. Anyone else...
