EF5 replied Oct 8, 2019I'm somewhat indifferent on the TE. It looks like the expected annual return is 5x the expected DD? That sounds like a great system. For what its worth, if I were to put a big balance behind the system then I'd probably trade where no more than a ...

EF5 replied Oct 8, 2019I've only used them for ETF trades so far. The big reasons I like them are: Low commission (but suddenly now everyone is free) High interest rate paid on cash balances Low margin rates I have to close my account for compliance reasons unfortunately ...

EF5 replied Oct 8, 2019Yep, these systems aren't going to impact land. We're into October now and I believe October is the peak of hurricane season for the Gulf of Mexico. It's been quiet lately, but we've still got about 8 weeks left for the 2019 season.

EF5 replied Oct 7, 2019I can't recall the last storm to impact Europe either, but apparently a lot of storms have hit Europe in the past. Supposedly in the future hurricanes may begin to form in the Mediterranian.

EF5 replied Oct 6, 2019I'd go with futures to avoid overnight costs or high spreads. The only downside is the barrier to entry is much higher so I don't know if that's a factor. If you go with futures, I think TD Ameritrade has the all-around best offering. Interactive ...

EF5 replied Oct 4, 2019So far YM (or ES) still has a series of higher lows: image I'm hoping for an upside breakout and I plan on selling into strength around 3100 ES. We're close to the end though so its scary to see any downside at this point. The thought of the top ...

EF5 replied Oct 4, 2019One more I thought of... Do not reenter a trade after being stopped out. For example, I could buy a breakout then the breakout fails and I wind up taking a loss. You could try again on what looks like the next breakout, but I won't take the same ...
