yeah kind of, stupid day while it wasn't hard to win and I wasn't really making mistakes but emotional decisions for giving back the green on the ES week. This time of year should completely be avoided and I had in mind not to trade after Wednesday but then yesterday this thing popped up and that's why I sat where I sit hehehe.

Did anyone talk to Rickshaw yet?

His silence is deafening but he now has convenient excuse, Magna told him to move on. So sad, we were just getting started with him.

i know in cl if you have a 89 10 stop bid, and it trades 89 15 and then next print is 89 oo ,if it didnt trade at your price the stop is ignored, don't know if that works in es ,has been a while so i don't know if that has changed,simple fix, can't imagine what stops them from changing it

thats an aweful rule. can potentially blowup an account on one news, if trader is leveraged.

do you have a link where they talk about this rule??

I was not trading today - was away from workstation so missed all the action. But this day teaches that even a minute's delay in putting a stop order for an open position can potentially mean a blown up account if some big news comes in.

i think you should ask your clearing firm,a computer program trips the order

I would not hold my breadth for a deal but regardless of what comes out, Ben and his boys will keep this floating as long as possible to make Americans feel like things have gotten better.

That means more up days for the market and Santa Claus rally is on next week. They were able to keep the LOD above the 12/14 low so damage not done to cash market yet.
