My only caution on this is that i have buy pendings on the other 3 indices. But they are all pending.... they could reverse and not be filled and NQ is just leading the way... - i may adjust down my stop from the 3499 level as well
NADEX
- Thread starter Satan's Helper
- Start date
Stop moved down to if nadex indicative on US tech 100 hits 3497.3

US 500 (Mar) >1766.0 (4:00PM) filled
take profit at 95
stop loss if indicative hits strike
take profit at 95
stop loss if indicative hits strike
nothing showing on UJ, YM or EU - cancelling YM Pending order price is to high this close to expiration
also FTSE DAX - just did not have a chance to look with posting while trading...
Take profit not hit, stop not hit - went to settlment.. Expired ITM Profitable

Im not specific to ES - I trade 28 markets.
If I trade ES futures I hedge with Nadex Spreads... Otherwise i just trade for premium collection on binaries. Yeah tis was more for fun at a posters request to give an example of how i trade nadex short term binaries for premium collection
I will check it out though sounds interesting

if you look at the es journal-2014 you will see there a few guys posting entry and stop etc. Doesn't matter to me if you post realtime or what. I just think if you believe in what you are doing you may find this a useful exercise. Be prepared for critics they are everywhere on et.
So summary nothing big to write home about. Usually i trade with a bit more time left in the day etc... but a win is a win.....
Most people try to do weekly and monthly condors and verticals for that much..heck i used to do them for 5% net on both sides a month on the RUTT and i was happy with that ...at the same time more time, hours, days, weeks till expiration you have more risk of news and volatile events in between. This is much simpler IMHO and pays more and can be done multiple times a day/hour even. Not for everyone and you have to be razor sharp on risk management but it works for me.
$17 -1.80 = $15.20 (24 minutes from entry to expiration) 18% return on Max Risk
$10 -1.80 = $8.2 (if held to settlement would have made 15 - but why risk it not my normal day) (15 minutes from entry to exit) 9.6% return on max risk
$20 bucks will buy dinner though
Though that is not much just to see the impact with larger sizes...
If I did 100 contracts would have netted out at ( i know i didn't as i explained bigger sizers wanting to be right prove myself etc..- bad combo but I at least did live trades real money called in real time made a profit and exhibited what I do - hope this helps someone
$1700-$18 (fees) = $1684
$1000-$18 (fees) = $982
Total Net - Over $2600
And the NQ US Tech Settlement was ITM as well for full payout.
