How many ticks per contract are you averaging?

Yours is an interesting thread.

At times I have earned 80 to 100 ticks per contract ... but overall, my average take is 8 to 10 ticks, per contract, per trading session.

BTW, to get the number of ticks a trader has earned simply take the dollar value of their post and translate it by $12.50 (one tick on the ES) to get an apples-to-apples comparison.

For example:

Quote from andrewbee:

I average about 20 YM points per session, with a mechanical system. Were you asking about points per trade, or per session?

Translates to $100 per contract, per session (20 YM Points = $100). So the number of ticks this trading strategy generates when compared to the ES is 8 ticks, which is a pretty good average.

Cool, thanks.
 
Mandrillbreath earns about 30 ticks on his back.

Hartz has a spray for it, LOL

I do not believe you.
