Looking back, I have a decent hit rate with tight stops....so maybe I should loosen the stops to get an even better hit rate :) -Fast

Same here...WTF was up with that...I shorted twice in the 1025+ area and just got stopped out. Should've just stayed out since I didn't have time to trade in the afternoon -Fast :mad:

And no you can't bring a parachute. There's an unwritten code that forbids you from bringing a parachute. If your plane goes down, you go down with it...in HONOR :D -Fast

Dude...stay away from air planes for now :D -Fast

OK, well tried out the Euros this AM. Paper traded the Dax and made around 20 pts while exiting early on all the trades. Then made a real trade on ESTX50 just for testing my IB acct to make sure it was working with Eurex...got out with a quick 1 pt since this was just a test. So far, I like...

Yep...just going for quick hits right now. Btw...added Eurex to my trading acct and eSignal. You might wanna look into it too. -Fast

Good play, but what was your reasoning for buying last night? I was expecting a pop at the open, but mostly from short-covering. -Fast

Sweet! That puts you in the Top 10%! :D -Fast

I didn't make anything today. P/L: $0 :( -Fast

OK...but I'm just wondering why it closed up 10.50 whereas ES and NQ were in the red most of the day (assuming the Eurpoean market is enslaved during US trading hours) -Fast

DAX closed up 10.50 pts while ES and NQ weren't all that positive. What do you guys make of that? -Fast

If anyone trading ESTX50 or DAX would be up for chatting on Yahoo messenger for a bit; PM me :) -Fast

Not sure yet. I just got the datafeed to Eurex today so I'll have to watch it for a few days before I can decide. I might trade Eurex from 8:00-9:30 AM EST and then switch to ES/NQ. -Fast

Yea...I'll be playing with the ESTX50 before trying DAX. -Fast
