    I finally paid attention to 3. after all these years. I posted a thread on Kelly Criterion as risk management tool and received some excellent helps that are going to change how I manage risk/money from now on.

    I am looking at AAPL options in real time intraday since your post, but so far have nothing to show. I will let you all know how it comes out.

    Best to you.

  5. I don't know how you guys can trade ES. That's not a criticism; it's a compliment. Most days, trading the ES must be like trying to balance on a stationary bicycle. Cool if you can do it.

    I couldn't. Found out the hard way, contributed a lot to you pros' wallets. Next time while you are driving your Ferrari with your trophy girl friend on your side, think of me and thank me.:D

    I came to the same conclusion after staring at charts for the last few weeks. So, there is something else.

    Thank you for the comments.
