    This is a three ring circus in YM

    Mini - I hate to crack your manipulation theory, but it simply does not exist and Austin pointed out why. Traders calling a market manipulated is another description for 1) I lost money and need to blame someone other than myself or 2) I sat & watched thousands of dollars trade and did not...

    Fill or Kill orders in Futures?

    J - like I said, if you are able to use buy stop limit or sell stop limit orders, then a platform like T4 thru Mirus or ProActive Futures will do exactly what you want. I like the T4 platform in this regard b/c it's very quick and easy to use the stop limit function. Each DOM is independent...

    Total of how many regietered CTA?

    Good question - email or call the NFA directly. They are good at answering emails or calls.

    Fill or Kill orders in Futures?

    J - I may have misunderstood your question. If you are looking to buy above or sell below the current price, then my suggestion will work. If you are using a regular limit order, not quite sure since I don't trade like that. Sorry for any confusion.

    Fill or Kill orders in Futures?

    Sure - just need to use a stop limit with 0 ticks allowed for slippage. It depends on the trading platform, but with T4 ( http://www.ctsfutures.com/content/t4/ ) it's very easy. I use this feature every trade actually and allow for 1 tick slippage and have never had problems.

    Trin Vix Leads The Way To The Spoos

    Well, I didn't want to ask directly if they were just trying to sell something, but looks like you guys found out. I really don't care if you are selling something, just go about it the right way - contact Baron and advertise here properly. For example - PureTick. They are obviously not going...

    The last few days is like gambling

    mini - are you planning to post a new thread every day about how volatile the markets are? :D Keep in mind that just b/c your method does not work in volatile markets does not equate to gambling. Maybe it does for YOU, but other traders, such as myself, thrive on highly volatile markets...

    I can not trade futures in this enviroment

    arrow - there's always going to be moves in the PM that you miss, but I have learned to accept that. For me, I have learned that I give back too much in the PM, so I simply stopped trading it. I tried the skipping lunch thing, trade the last 30-60 min's and I found it hard to trade intently till...

    Anyone heard of DV Trading from Toronto?

    Dino, It's simple, read my previous post: Now you are saying that it's purely a coincidence that 'someone' posted a question about your firm and that you just happen to be on the boards for the first time ever and responded to it. That's not a coincidence Dino. You may not have been...

    I can not trade futures in this enviroment

    Stock - I have found for me that just trading the AM (8am-noon EST) is plenty in one day. I found that when I try to trade all day, I just get exhausted and end up taking bad trades simply to take a trade. By limiting myself to 4 hours a day of trading, I know that I have to remain focused...

    I can not trade futures in this enviroment

    I agree traveling - certain trading methodologies work better in 'chop', trending, big volatility, low volatility, etc. It's just a matter of the trader recognizing where the strengths and weaknesses of their trading methodology is.

    I can not trade futures in this enviroment

    I guess it's all about your trading methodology - my stops have not changed at all just b/c we have more volatility. As a matter of fact, my positions are turning much more profitable, much quicker with this volatility. I can understand though if you like slow and steady, this is not the...

    Anyone heard of DV Trading from Toronto?

    Please share az how pointing out obvious spam is being bitter... I have no bitterness to prop firms, including this firm. Just take a look at this - the first post of a username is asking about the firm. The first post of the owner, who just happened to be on the boards, is about his...
