  1. a 1% miss in this under promise mkt is gigantic....Have you sold anything yet? My bet is no...get ready to watch you're paper gains go negative

  2. LOL your posts are like ambient noise

    I'm up between 20-130% on my picks. The Stock_Trad3r index is up 14% in just two weeks...It would take a bear market for all my gains to evaporate.

  4. I only reserve the word putz for michael scott. I have to think of a nickname for you. Maybe flooz- someone is is full of talk without any record to back it up.

  5. the futures sold off immediately post cash close.

    that is BEFORE the settlement time, so of course the selloff was not reflected in the afterhours # (which is calculated from the settlement point as reference)

    for pete's sake.

    futures 101.

    the settlement price is calculated AFTEr the cash close. and that of course varies based on when the "regular session" ends (which differs between ES and YM.

    hint: at what time does CME (and CBOT) get their settlement price for the ES and YM (respectively)
