No doubt, but my main point was that because of HAVING SO MUCH RISK ON THE TABLE AT ONE TIME that when you are encountered with these events you...
It can happen one time per year or 3 times per year or whenever. It is like getting 00 in roulette. Just because it happened last time doesn't...
It happened when the ES went down 65 points, it was locked for 4 hours. It could happen though in the morning and lock all day, last instance...
You don't think the ES can limit up/down? It could happen, but you have to prepare for that by always limiting your risk. You will hit that...
Again, depends what your risk profile is. Under 2% is good, in reality anything under 4% is good depending what your historical stats are etc....
Just tell me what your average max open drawdown is to achieve $450.00 So what are you risking to gain for ease of math $500.00 a day? I am...
You didn't address it lol. You just don't understand it. You are under capitalized for the game you are playing. Yes you can do what you...
You do not understand risk management, you are showing it by this previous post. Percentages aren't relevant for traders? Seriously?
9 contracts on the line with a $50,000 account should make you shit yourself as well. It is my guess you do not trade at all. Thats almost 1%...

When you say 6-8 points wide then you have the next poster saying they have the $2.50 commission.. is it both? Or how does that all work? It's...
Took a quick look around their website but could not find anything. I was specifically looking for information on the pair GBP/AUD and what...
Yes, mostly losing your cool and getting mentally frustrated and losing patience. Those are the downfalls of discretionary trading. Those can...
I'm not going to respond to all of this, but referring to your 20:1 risk reward, I would say yes, and nothing has a historical 99% win rate, you...
You are clueless sometimes ABC. We already explained what you are incorrectly assuming when you say you are making 400-500/day with $50,000...
Im not sure this is debatable really, but when they settle up accounts if mine was debited $100 there was either 1 or multiple participants whos...
It is my advice that you listen to your new friend Mike. He is more than correct and like he said this is not scratching the surface of what...
My father has a TD A. account and I tried that backtest one time. All I can say is "I doubt it" regarding their results. I use SIERRA, I am...
