Trading the E-mini: Results Comparison

GoldenEagleTrading said:
My strategy which I've tested with live market data will yield between 5-10 points daily (a.m. and p.m. sessions) on the ES with a one-point stop on each trade. None of you have to believe it. I don't care. I'm over the snide, I'll mannered, pseudo-intelligent comments. Good luck with your trading endeavors.

What!!!??? Has the Eagle turned into a chicken? Maybe he got cold feet or a weak stomach? So, are you telling me that instead of "Houston, the eagle has landed" that now were are now just going to hear "Houston the Eagle has flown away"?

Naw...me thinks the GET will come back and complete the mission. You just watch and see.

Agree I want to see the results tomorrow.

I just think Tulip's annual return is not that impressive compared to even a 2 point daily profit target strategy on the ES. That's 20% per day ROC. Maybe it has to do with scaling. I don't know.

Do you honestly think anyone can trade 550.000 ES contracts in one trade? Because that's what they would be doing when they trade your 'style' with a 275 mln dollar account all-in with $500 margin per future....

:banghead:

I've been working for about a year and a half on developing a strategy to scalp 5-10 points off the E-mini daily. Profit target is one-two points on each trade (avg. time 8 minutes) stop is one-point. If I am able to reach the 10 points per day, that's 100% return on my money ($500 to open a contract) per day. How does that stack up to what other e-mini traders on this forum are making?
Best,

Your strategy requires a win percentage of nearly 100 percent. Recommend abandonment.

Of course you are going to post in close to real time, correct ? With that 90% batting average of your it should be fun, looking forward to it.

BTW, Since we had mentioned Steve Cohen, I believe he has said his top index traders had a win ratio at 60-70 % at SAC's heyday. anyway good luck.

It was much closer to 60% average[Jack Schwager=reliable source]Perhaps his top traders did better than 60%??. But as a group, his were much better than average.:cool:

The eagle was shot by a poacher for taxidermy, o_O

A journal about 100% daily returns...that's laughable,
I could create a much more modest journal about 10% daily returns, but I don't want to,

But who knows -- he might just be that diamond in the rough, amongst the dumb masses,
