Anybody know what DTN IQ symbol is for TransAct symbol 6EM7 emini Euro Dollar. It looks like @MEM7 but that symbol does not match the DOM and looks more thinly traded that 6EM7

Thanks,

Bruce

Sell stop raised to 1515.00. Will be trailing stop up from here.

I've drawn a trendline through the 9:55 and 10:50 EDT lows, and using that as a guide for my trailing stop.

Sell limit order in at 1521.25 (+10pts).
Price just came down to touch -- but not violate -- the uptrendline, so I'm remaining in my long position. Raising stop to 1515.50
 
Quote from Jaxon:

amen! of course a big part of the fascination is 2 + 20 :D Trading my own account from home is going to be very difficult but the ultimate goal is to be self sufficient, answer to noone and be totally mobile.

Yes! Organize your life affairs to suit and match this advantageous environment, not the other way around.

6E prefix suggests the full size contract.
@MEM7 is the mini contract on iqfeed

Stopped out for +2pts.

Apex, are you still long/bullish here?

Thanks Osorico, that would explain it, I have the option to trade it but have not done so.

The differences between the "mini" and "full" contracts are neglible, and the min version is defiitely lacking volume ...

Margins
E-Mini Euro FX - (day) $600 - (overnight) $1,148
Euro FX - (day) $1,100 - (overnight) $2,295

If you're looking to trade non-financials, IMO it's always better to go (and stay) where the volume is, you might want to try the ZN (10 year notes) or ZB (30 year bonds) contracts

10 year note - (day) $400 - (overnight) $878
30 year bond - (day) $877 - (overnight) $1,350

Yes everyone, be sure to have at least $2300 in your accounts. Jimmie will be coming by to make sure you are properly funded.

After all, if you can't make a profit during the day, for sure you will want to hold overnight and get your ass handed to you on the open......:D
