+1.. ES mini... how many folks spend a life time and then loose in the long run... it is truly the most efficient instrument around...
BINGO! Since you guys agree that the ES is the most efficient instrument around, then it also must mean it is the most predictable to trade when one allows patience for a proper setup to develop. I agree with Mav flapping his jaws about "tick stroking" the ES. Some strategies work great in ES while others will drive you up a wall unless you discipline yourself to AVOID, DOUBLE AVOID ANYTHING except your well defined and explicit setups ONLY. ES, being as expressed by many as "most efficient" requires a different approach to capture the "most efficient" moves, I mean C-mon man, the price still moves up and down. I would love to trade the ES when it is stroking itself on the screen but I get chewed up, thus I avoid anything but setups that will either be running or are about to move from LEVEL TO LEVEL. Breakout trading works, keep the rest........... PS: done with this thread, I will not go 'tit for tat" with mav, I prefer to let him keep believing I am just a simple fat truck driver from another generation...
it went from nil volume to sudden size smacking the bid were it would find huge bid support ( maybe family accounts ) and then it would be off to the races. With MM's holding your orders and fuckin your prints; squeezing in was almost impossible ...peace
