I've concluded its impossible to day trade index futures manually

Quote from Mtrader:

Or.... you will not get filled and miss the trade.... which will cost you much more in loss of profit.

Yep, makes more sense to just use MIT or STP (depending on direction) in liquid markets. 1-2 ticks of slippage sometimes more than worth it.

If I go in at market I never miss more than 1 tick. My average profit per trade is 14 ticks. So if I miss 1 trade I should make 14 trades with an entry price of 1 tick below market. So it is clear to me what to do. And sometimes I am lucky and get the lower tick too.
If your profits depends on this 1 tick difference, you should work on your system I think.

I like to compare apples with apples.

Sold all at break even on Friday because The Market began indicating that the mood may no longer be bullish.
