I have the secret on how to pull money out of the market in ES 9 times out of 10... as a matter of fact, I can teach you how to do it 19 times out of 20, or 99 out of 100... I promise I am not kidding. If you want to know the secret, send me an email. Please include check or money order of $5
Yeah I know this one. Make a tick, stop loss 4 ticks. Scalping 100 times a day+. Need automatic entry/exit (too fast for humans). I have tried this, and apart from the high commission costs, the market is simply not liquid enough (believe it or not) to get in and out and take advantage of the "noise". You want to be in and out in less than a second usually - but sometimes you wait for a fill 1 tick away up to a minute. Can't win!
Just thought I would share with you a little e-mail I just got... <<<dgzadok, I really appreciate your contributions to Elite. In fact, I value your input so much that I was able to follow your advice and ride yesterday's trend for a 7 point gain (now if only I can do this consistently). Thank you for sharing your insights with us. I hope that you'll continue to spread your success to those who will listen and who will abide by your trading rules. I am eagerly awaiting for your next lesson, either through private email or through the discussion boards.>>>> I called the trend-day UP yesterday in this forum around NOON... this person profited from it... great job my man!! BTW... I did not charge anyone $15.00 Happy Trading!!! Dave
The thing is Dave, you seem to be obnoxious about your so-called great trading ability. I don't even think the pros take money out of the e-minis every single day like you say you do. That is why no one here is really believing you. You seem to also have an elitist attitude, being so much better than anyone. The indicators you say you use are pretty much standard for trading the e-mini's. And there is only so many ways you can use them. So don't be afraid you have given up your style. No one really cares anyway. I don't believe you hit on 9 out of 10 trades. I don't even think Linda Raschke is that good. So you aren't either. And you are right, you don't have anything to prove. Especially to me. I don't even trade the e-mini's. At least not yet.
Let's bring it on! version77 and dgzadok each deposit $25k in an escrow account, then start trading simulated contest on mytrack.com... at end of 30 days, winner take the $50k pot? How about that? All those agree, say "I" !!!!!
dozu888 How about joining the action? I want 75K in that pot. Winner takes all! Any others out there who want to join up? Just a minute, I don't even trade the e-mini's yet...
There is a lot of testosterone flowing on this thread and it all seems quite pointless. Ultimately we are trading the market, not competing in full-conctact one-on-one basketball or somesuch. The real competition is in maintaining emotional control. Someone once said that the difference between a pro and a novice trader is that the pro controls his emotions while a novice throws tantrums. I have been at this a long time and consider myself a student of the market. ...so much to learn all the time.
<<Looks like you tried to call a pullback, when the market did indeed keep on trending up... >> Version... If you will re-read the post... I said IF the market is going to pull back... not that it WILL... I did not try to call a pull back I do not claim to PREDICT the market... but I can recognize with a high degree of certainity what it has a tendency to do... Happy Trading!!! Dave
