  1. Someone with 1mill real money account would not be talking like you or he wouldnt have that 1 mill very long. Is this position a real one? (sorry just asking)

  3. I didnt think so because even with a 1mill account 89 minis is WAY too much exposure for anything more than scalping certainly too too for one who averages down (my oponion only)

  5. It is real. Right now I am down about 1 pt. on 89 contracts. I have lost the capacity to add and average, so that is just an approximation. That amounts to about 90 ES points, which is, I am estimating, about $4500. But, I take comfort in the fact that during RTH I made about 10K, so I am still up on the day. I realize the day will change soon, so I may be down on tomorrow. I haven't given up yet. There may be a light at the end of this tunnel. If I get run over, so be it; that's what taking a risk is all about.

    The whole thing does strike me as a bit of a wind up. ES typically moves up and down in a narrow directionless range during the overnight session. No serious trader would behave in the way this guy is doing. It is amusing though. :p
