  4. Had a slipup today. For some reason I had FV at 0.000% instead of -0.347%. I ended up being about 50:1 Long. I guess it could of been alot worse but I pulled the plug quick.

  8. DE and KO were influenced by that wholesale or export number yesterday at 8:30.

    as far as eminis you can use SPY. to get it into laser you will need extra entilment for CME mini. cost 60$ i think.

    Today: 5 fills, all shorts, -0.05 per share. Used 0.7% envelope.

    OPG experts, others than Don, who already did. Would you mind sharing EXIT techniques you're using?

    I, for instance, have a take profit order at 12 cents against the opening order sent automatically. If not filled, the rest becomes completely discretionary, and I don't wait longer than 10 minutes after open. All this gives quite an emotional strain, which I don't like. Do you guys have a more structured way to exit?

  10. You might try something less than 12 cents profit - but only for Half your position. Some use less than 10 cents.

    Getting filled is as easy as BJ card counting [without the casino watching of course].
    But getting out can be as complicated as playing Poker.
