    This morning was intense. I tried getting short ES at 999.75 but no fill (should have just lowered it a tick). Anyways, I was long when the news came out...got stopped out immediately. Still managed to come out with some cash in my pocket, but not much. Gotta love the TURBO button tho :D...

    I agree with you there. Technically, my acct is enough to trade 40 ES contracts, but that doesn't mean I use full leverage. And the reason is, I don't have the capital to LOSE. So, even when I make 5-6 ES pts, it doesn't add up to much in actual dollars. But at least I know, it can be...

    But that was 12 NQ pts. To be fair, I think we should take your ES points and multiply them by 2.5 to get the equivalent NQ pts :D -FastTrader
