Anyone having problems with IB? Not sure if I got filled on a sale at 1202.50 (at least it was small size for me 2 contracts)
IB is literally fucking outta whack right now. I tried to cover my short from 1200 but couldn't so I had to buy the equivalent amount for YM. I just hope the two move in tandem.
 
I just want to share my misery with other ES traders

My model was calling for the rubberband to snap back around noon.

bot 1145 es calls @ 13.00 @ 12:41:17
sld em @ 17 @ 13:14:44

When they LSE news came out all quotes dissapeared..as soon as they came back online I panicked and hit the bid.


last time i check they were 56 bid...ugh

Pure luck? Right to it, hot damn.

Called it as well...although problem is it went against us by about 40pts when we made the call..

So at least when I make a call...immediately trade against it and then reverse in an hour.

Just defend position until it takes off.

True, I think I had my best day ever. I'll definitely be getting a steak for dinner...but can't really take credit for a call.

Edit: And I was thinking of shorting gold near 900 but didn't :(
