sammy, nice trading. i see that you consistently make money trading the Qs.
i put up the GBP and CAD today, to watch for a setup, and sure enough CAD had a couple nice pullbacks. i missed the first pullback as i still am having problems with esignal and tick charts, but was able to enter on the second pullback for a win.
i was 3 for 3 in the EUR, but on 1 of the trades i only took a couple ticks as i was sure to be flat prior to the 10 EST report.
still only 1 contract per trade.

I'm gonna start posting my results. I tried to do the print screen capture method of my blotter, but I can't get it to work. Anyways, my results are no where near as good or as consistent as most ppl posting here, so it probably doesn't matter. I trade futures in any market that moves around and is electronic. I am probably the smallest profitable trader in my office and I am not as consistent as I would like to be.
+712 for today
Another note, my results are gross. My commissions are calculated at the end of the month. I know I can probably do the calculations daily on a spreadsheet, but it's not really worth the hassle for me.

i lost 6g's yesterday. the moral of the story???? don't play merger arbitrage and expect to make profits before the EOD.
i'm sure you can guess what stock(s) i was playing but in case you weren't watching the news I'll tell you I got long on PHS at 79.00 after the halt.
lesson learnt.
mnx
