What do you mean by that? Can you explain? personally I find anything that goes overnight much more risky than whatever daytrade, 'cause I'm...
Officially the stops are invisible to anyone. Of course the orders are stored on a server somewhere, either the servers from the exchange/clearing...
O, but in that case we agree. The point is of course, what do you define as close? 2 times the ATR of a 1-minute bar would be ok with me :)....
Wrong. You are suggesting that you don't use stops because you have a entry/exit plan. Of course you have a plan, everyone has, or should have....
I still dont see your point. I presume you have some price-level at which your 'alert' is set. When the MM is breaking the alert, what will you...
What's the point of not using stops and having alerts set? What are you gonna do when the alert comes (if you're still in time to do aynthing...
Well, I guess I don't want to be rich then. The type of ppl described in the article make me vomit. Sure wouldn't want to be part of that crowd....
That sure is an interesting thread and I did find that specific quote. I only read half of it yet, but it seems that in that thread too these...
So, after a few days my question still hangs in my mind. Again: 1) why would a big ask/bid ratio imply you get long? 2) why would a big...
alright lets wait for Bill then. I would be willing to accept the 2:1 mechanism as a fact, although I would find it hard to trade it without...

Good observation, thanks. Not bad for a 1st post, I hope you keep them coming. Did u start out as a programmer or as a trader? Are you using...
I see you did three (your first 3) posts within 15 minutes, all with essentially the same subject. Is it possible for you to gather your thoughts...
Hmm, it's not that easy to backtest because you'd have to know the actual IV's of the time, not only to determine the price of the original...
I'm not so sure about that: if you adjust every "X" point you'll lock in 20 cts every time. Reaching point "Z" will have locked you in 60 cts,...
Why are you shouting so loudly? If you want to convince someone speak softly. Or are you only trying to convince yourself? Ursa..
Yes, but your remarks were very wise and worthwile anyway: Ursa..
There is no such thing as unrealised P/L. That is where you go so horribly wrong. When a stock dumps 20% of it's value you think this only...
No, no, no. Not true! They are exactly the same man. Why would you own a CC when you think the stock goes down?? The position will lose...
