Quote from Eddiemorra:

anyone able to catch any of this drop?

Oh yeah...

I still have a short position that i opened Tuesday night which i added to yesterday and today as well (not sim).

Am looking for 106.

As regards intraday trading, I am still doing sim (unfortunately) and am up 120 ticks over 4 trades this morning.

Corrected for you.

They've raised margin requirements for silver for the FOURTH TIME in 10 days.

Basically it's like if IB canceled intraday margin for CL and the CME raised it to 15,000.

Nice trading Vis and Eddie

not me im afraid. Breakeven at the mo
(although, ill take it, as, after the last 2 days of pure winning, I know that im due to revert back to my consistently losing trades!)

But yes, Vis is killing it as usual. Although he is on SIM for his intraday trading at the moment. Although, in terms of skill, its all the same to me. I am the same at trading live as I am in trading demo.

I never understand how some people can kill it in demo but always lose trading live (with the exception of their demo trading relying on their huge demo account to save them from ever having to take a loss on a trade)
