What spread are you getting charged? You're probably giving up a lot of edge by not going DMA.

wot tar says!

This is unbelievably doomed.

Because I had to leave for many hours today I did one trade this morning - and I got out of it while I was miles away from a trading system (as in computer) this afternoon.

Wanna know how much I took? 1.5 ticks on half the position, and 2 ticks on the remaining half.

That took 6 hours.

You're in trouble...

Oh, and that was trading with very specific constraints in mind cause of day limitations. In fact the volume I did today was pathetic. I did literally 60 round trips, and made about £2.2k. Usually I take 0.5, 1, or 1.5 ticks. And orders of magnitudes larger than 60 round trips! Obviously, I am not paying spreads to do this.

Now that's not to say trading like you want to is IMPOSSIBLE. But you are only going to be taking very occasional trades and you are very unlikely to be in a position to take any till after ECB/BOE at the earliest...

Nighty, look at 98.50. Now in all seriousness wot do you see (3mth euribor june)? I'm tellin ya mate...the charts have spoken....i've just got a semi-on.

arabianights · Mar 21, 2011

mate wtf you talking about?

june bor gets smashed on trichet (more than once, but for purposes of this thread I'm talking about last ECB meeting)

it then gets whacked up on reactor. then one day, for reasons I'm trying to remember but where to do with reactor, it gets mentally bid up to 595 on no volume at all (edit: I remember what they were now: moronic reporting of some european nuclear guy that amusingly turned out to have been reported hours earlier - hence it came back - and would have come back a lot more had it not been for algos and no one wanting to be short)

there's then a technical move the next day very rapidly back to 580 region. then gets sold equally rapidly for common sense reasons during that day (friday I think?) in any case on the friday it then gets whacked down again on trichet comments

and follow through today of friday's selling, on moderate-low volume

that is WHAT HAPPENED. I'm telling you that off the top of my head, I don't even have to look it up (hence there are tiny errors with precise prices and dates potentially).

You want to compete with me off a chart? Be my guest

kimo'sabby · Mar 21, 2011

Chartcraft: Similar to witchcraft but implementing more craziness on a larger scale.

kimo'sabby · Mar 21, 2011

AN. I can't compete, but i will bring Stirs to the forefront of T2W activity....even if i become homeless doing it.
