    Hi SethArb,

    To answer ur questions :

    I have been trading 5+ yrs and only trade the futures market. I take money on the first of every month from my a/c. I have set a fixed base ( trading capital ) and withdraw the rest. This is not to prevent myself from taking a large position ( i can take large positions with my capital when the situvation warrents ) but for my expenses.

    Avg position size depends on the set-up and most important my risk tolerance. My max risk per trade does not exceed in the worst case 2% of my capital. Position Size depends on where the fill and my stop. I trade upto 20 contracts.

    I tend to be aggresive with size at the beginning of the month. Simple reason being I have enough time to recover from any large losses. Like wise i reduce my lot size as the month gets nearer to its end to protect any profits I may have.


    Back to todays trading :

    Trading Overview - June 06 2006

    Will mainly be looking for scalps today with shorts in the areas - 1276, 1279, and 1283-1287 and long at 1266 with tight stops.

    With no economic reports due expecting a dull mrkt/whipsaws today. As usual lets see how the mrkt set's us up for today's trading.

    Good trading all.
