Thanks for the good suggestions, Broomy. I'll take a look.
Thanks for the suggestion, Ammo.
I developed and sold a vertical website for the oil and gas industry between 1994-1999. It was essentially the "Yahoo" of the petroleum industry.
I'm still here. I appreciate everyone who posted to this thread. For the moment, I have quit trading and am looking at my options. There is a...
I'm sorry I haven't been responding to every reply. I guess it's hard to hear that I'm just not cut out for this after 8 years. It's also hard to...
Well, there are close to 6000 pages in the ES Journal right now. I was just trying to narrow it down if that's OK with you.
Thunderdog, I started trading the ER2 when it was fairly new. I guess the main attraction was the daily range compared to other eminis. I...

I'm not trading at all.

I just want to thank everyone for their input and concern. I am still trying to digest everyone's ideas and all of the PM's I received. For...
I am trading one lot. Not all of the 75K is in my trading account.
Thanks for all of the responses. There is really too much for me to address. I don't consider myself a gambler. I never gamble on anything but the...
Here's an example of what the chart looked like for ER2 on Friday.
I use constant range bars. Each bar is one point in the ER2. It's not a time frame, per se. It's driven by changes in price. I do mainly trade...
I've been trading ES and ER2 both. With ER2, I use R100 constant range charts with a volatility stop set to 1.5. I take both long and short...
I've been trying to make it as a trader for eight years. I have yet to have a profitable year. I have been living off my savings from a previous...
Lately I have been trying to pare my trading down to the single highest probability trade of the day. I find the moves in the first hour on...
