    Matcha's Dow E-mini Journal

    Another idea that works (although this method is a little looser). Once the current candle posts a new high/low and closes, put your stop above below the previous bar (unless the current candle trumps it). As long as new highs and lows are made, your stops will be adjusted with it.

    Is FX the most manipulated market ?

    Yup, here we go again........the blame game. Classic "I don't know what i'm doing, so i'm going to blame someone else" philosophy. Tell you what guys, the more you chime in and support this crap the worse off it's going to be for you.

    why people bad mouth mean reversion strategies?

    Taking a break is better than "death by 1000 cuts" though :). I wouldn't be disappointed. Better to come back with a fresh mind. :)

    why people bad mouth mean reversion strategies?

    Because most people don't want to stand in front of a freight train. Of the people that do, many people don't know how to get out of the way.

    Is Prop Trading equities/commodities DEAD?

    well you must have taken a wrong turn somewhere. Also years mean nothing to me. Hours of screen time is a little different story. I've been at it since '97. In addition, Day 1 I learned about responsibility for my actions and that I'm not going to make it anywhere blaming my failures on...

    Is Prop Trading equities/commodities DEAD?

    . That day was an actual crash. Call it what you want but after what we had in 2008, what happened that day was typical for what you'd see in any other market. Funny I had the best day of my life that day. HOWEVER I wasn't scalping. I didn't want to interfere with that position. Covering my...

    Is Prop Trading equities/commodities DEAD?

    Since 2008 lol? Come on. That's nothing. You're still an infant in this world. As for HFTs, I think it's hilarious. First it was MMs and now it's HFT's. There will always be something to blame bad trading on. You guys need to start blaming yourselves and quit using HFTs/MM's as an excuse...

    what brokers have options charts that go back more than a month?

    Decent options info is few and far between. Zecco for volatility charts. I searched pretty hard a few years back and prophet was the best I could muster. If you want something really good you're probably going to have to pay for it. Thinkorswim is probably one of the best. Dl thinkdesktop...
