    Questions for experienced ES daytraders?

    I do find it interesting that you feel I need to "add something to your monitoring to assist you with better timing of entries, as you are not maximizing the opportunities" when you have no idea how well I do. Do the math 100c x 3 @ 2 ticks -commission. I think I'm good. But thank you for the...

    Questions for experienced ES daytraders?

    Not afraid of a thing. I'm perfectly happy taking my 3 trades @ 100c (nor will I EVER get stopped out 3 times in one day since I close it down and add 1 extra trade for the next 4 days if I get stopped ONCE.) and going out to lunch @ 11am. I thought it would be nice to share here, but clearly...

    FOUR ticks on the ES is NOT scalping. It is an INVESTMENT. TWO ticks is scalping. You can do that on "noise". Just my thought. Not a sermon.

    Personally, I like the site. It is simple and clear... as was intended. No Frills. If you know what you are doing, you don't need anything more. Problem NOW is they have raised DT margins on the ES from 462 (last time I looked) to 1268. Not a good sign.
