    Confidence Shattered in NT 8

    So, your comment relates to fully automated strategies, right? I just use it for charting and manual trade entry and have a few custom indicators as well which I find useful. It seems to work OKAY for that purpose, although I've had a few concerns after switching from NT7 (where I never had...

    I'm curious why Destriero (allegedly the most successful trader on ET) and another 'respected trader' cares about B1S2s results at all? And are even willing to pay money for him to show his blotter? Beats me...

    Current range is 28. The range of the last two prior days have been approx. 70. Trading down to 2900 would be 'only' a 46,00 point range and down 1,82 %. Certainly not a stretch at all in this volatility.

    Took an exit at 25 on my early short. I still think we have considerable downside potential from here, but did not want to risk a strong counter move from here.

    Maintaining short bias as long as we trade below 39.

    Sell set-up triggered as anticipated. If not 2900 today - I'm thinking at least 2915?

    Looking at similar weekly structures/numbers in my dataset I have: - 3/5 chance of making the week low on Friday - 3/5 chance of closing lower on Friday than Thursday Looking at even more volatile weeks than this one - I get similar odds. This does not exclude strong up moves either early in...

    Confidence Shattered in NT 8

    Totally different how? Care to elaborate? I was very happy with NT7, but migrating to NT8 which was supposed to be a far superior platform have been a disappointment. I don't run any automated strategies except for order placement, but have coded quite a lot of indicators/tools which I use. If...

    Trading full time from home.

    Continue what you're doing with a decent sized account, but don't go full-time yet. When you're ready to go full-time, you won't have to ask people about it on a message board. At least if you go full-time - make sure you have savings put aside for at least 3 months such that you're not...

    This is starting to look a lot like Q4 2018. There is an open gap at 2895 on ES. 2889,67 on SPX. I'm eyeing that as a target on this leg down. This could happen as soon as tomorrow at this rate.

    Was this the gift you were hoping for or did we exceed that? Regardless, it seems like 2950 was hit before 3090.

    Yes - I figure that was it. Seems like many were expecting 50 bps yesterday.

    ES Journal - 2019/2020

    I hope everyone involved in the markets were aware of that much anticipated news release at 2:00 PM (which I referenced in my post) with the press conference starting at 2:30 PM. I was merely curious if anyone followed the conference/news and if there were any particular triggers associated...

    Do 58 qualify as 50s...? :) Or have yesterday's action negated this call?

    Interesting action yesterday. I was not present trading it and am only now opening my charts. Did anyone track the news and PA in real time? Seems like there was a an immediate drop at 2:00 PM of around 12,50 points and an ensuing recovery. 39 minutes later shit hits the fan and we see a drop...

    Yesterday closed at 3014,75 (ES 4:00). Seems like everyone and their dog is expecting a move up from here? :) + 0,5 % = 3030. + 1,0 % = 3045. I certainly think 3040 is a good possibillity for today, but will probably see some volatility during the FED release. I'm biased toward the upside...

    The S&P 500 topped at 3017.8

    Simply an opportunity to buy more shares for someone with a buy and hold approach. Not everyone is 'trading'.
