#FuturesTrades December 23rd Tuesday 2008 Trade Log

Trade Posting Chat Log Info: My name is M.A. Perry (a.k.a. online as NihabaAshi - martial arts & Japanese Candlestick term) and I am the moderator of #FuturesTrades.

Simply, my job is to keep the peace and ensure #FuturesTrades is a useful community of traders from around the world that have gather in a virtual trading office.

In addition, I personally use the below chat log as feedback for critical trading information that's not available when I review my broker statements nor any statistical analysis of my trading.  To maintain the usefulness of the below chat log, all of my trades were posted in real-time within 5 seconds after entry or exit unless otherwise noted in the log. 

Further, although I'm not familiar with the trade methods used by most members of #FuturesTrades, I use a rule based methodology (very objective) that involves price action only trading (no indicators). However, some of my trades are intuition via market experience in combo with many concepts from my rule based methodology.

  My own current performance record and broker profit/loss statement is posted at the bottom of today's log.

With that said, today's trade posting chat log is below and it contains trades posted in real-time by #FuturesTrades members including all of my own trades that were posted in real-time.

<@X>	#FuturesTrades Info ->  No gurus, no head traders. Members use this room to document (trade journal) their trades and thoughts from one trade to the next trade because it provides critical information they can't get from broker statements nor statistics. Also, mimicking the trades by others is not recommended without their permission. More info at http://www.thestrategylab.com/FuturesTradesChatRoom.htm

[10:39] <+ItalianSharp> rick, as far as i know CME takes the average daily range month by month [10:39] <+ItalianSharp> and calculates margins off that [10:39] <+rickf_lurking> true [10:39] <+ItalianSharp> daily range has dropped dramatically in both november and especially december [10:40] <+ItalianSharp> so we should see lower margins in january i believe [10:40] <+ItalianSharp> unless some crazy volatility breaks in again [10:40] <@NihabaAshi> Exited all ES Long @ 875.50 --> + 0.75 [10:41] <+szubaark> Tightening Stop [10:42] <+szubaark> Exited all Long ES at 874.75 --> + 0.75 «« paper »» [10:43] <+ItalianSharp> that upspike got retraced quickly [10:43] <+jbuch> szu IB called me yesterday soliciting my business and quoted a margin requirement of 500/contract [10:43] <+ItalianSharp> something not exactly bullish [10:43] <@NihabaAshi> Shorts ES @ 874.25 -> large size [10:43] <@NihabaAshi> 6 contracts [10:43] <+szubaark> jbuch, for SPY or ES?
