  1. I got a few ES scalps, and by scalps I mean 10 ES points hahaha. I'm up about 25 ES points on the day.

    nah, i rather stupidly did some intraday trading and my platform kept freezing up. Lost some money, not much fortunately.
     
  5. i just shorted at 1947 and covered for another 7 points looking a bit toppy.

  6. Any IB datafeed freezes today? I had a few
     
  7. I use kinetick with AMP futures, yes I actually had a few times where i had activated a Ninjatrader strategy and i wondered why it didnt execute an order, turns out the datafeed was a few seconds slow but its fine now.

    I need some kind of volatility trigger which converts all my fixed stop loss to trailing stop profit. (both to exit and to enter)
     
  9. You guys must use some pretty wide stops...

    no, some of them are very tight, but it doesn't take much on days like today if you were lucky enough to have a stop below/above the point of no return. A tight stop becomes pretty wide if you keep entering it enough times. No, I didn't have wide stops, I just suddenly stopped getting stopped out of my tight stops.
