Damn. Dead again too Day is over for me. System too flaky. And I don't want to trade the CME when the CBOT is off. Not a safe market to wade into.
Exactly. What I didn't do is figure out exactly where ES was at 9:04am (which is the time stamp on my YM short) in order to figure out the optimum...
15 contracts at $5 a point and a loss of approximately 14.4 points. $1075 dollars precommission.
Yea, I know what each tick is worth. I just never did the math before to figure out exactly what the wash out would be if I had to hedge. So, a...
960 was the average. Actually, 960.6. I scaled in for 5 at 960, 5 at 961 and another 5 at 961.
Damn. YM just came back. Covered the short at 975 for a -$1075 on the 15. But I'm up $375 on the ES long. This sucks. Waited too long to go...
IB just flashed a note: 12:01:53 To ECBOT traders: Mon Mar 7 12:01:52 2005 EST The exchange is reporting that they will re-open at 12:10...
Where'd you get that? It hasn't come back for me at all. A couple quotes blipped up but they're gone again.
CMON CBOT!!!!!! I'd be jumping for joy now having a two ES point profit on 15 contracts, except I'm LOSING ON THE YM SHORT!!!
That's it. I'm long 15 ES. Even though 15 YM and 15 ES don't equal each other perfectly, it's insurance. This has never happened to me before...
Yea, can't get out obviously. But ES has risen to about where YM was when I shorted an HOUR AGO, so I've got my finger on the ES buy button to...
Welcome to trading my friend! :D
Well, as long as ES keeps dropping, no reason *yet* to hedge. Unless they bust all the trades.
I've traded this for a little less than three years now and the CBOT feed has never gone down when I was in front of the screens.
Esignal posted saying the ECBOT trading is down and was halted at 9:20 CT. It's not the charting or broker.
My YM just stopped on both Esignal and IB. ES and NQ are still updating so the software's fine. Anybody else have YM stop cold at 09:19 CT?
Thanks for the input but nobody's answered my questions yet. 1. Does NinjaTrader work with Velocity? 2. If yes, can I use their brokerage with...
Can one use Ninja Trader's front end with Velocity Futures? If so, would that still require the $500 X-trader fee in order to get the reduced...
Closing doors as in everybody has to leave, thus only one hour of drinking?
