I'm in the process of moving my account to citi... dealing with the bank vs. the bucket shops is a no brainer after this crap. The funds you put into the account fall under fdic protection in case of insolvency, so up to 250k. GL

Thanks pipster... wow... amazing. Perfect reason not to leave loads of money in your account... could get screwed and not even be in a trade...

Also, is there a brokerage that insures the account in case the broker becomes insolvent?... I know there's insurance for other types of trading but commodities/futures/forex a different beast I guess... not insurable because of crap like what ...

Does anyone have a news link for this?...Thanks in advance.

Thanks Steve... got it to open and compile with no errors... got it to open the dialog box on the chart, but it won't go any further than that. Heh... told you I was a noob!!

wow I'm a noob — Can't seem to get the indicator to work... tried to compile it and it can't open it... not sure what I'm doing wrong... any help?? Thanks

Dow futures down 534... its Armageddon on the footsteps...

May not make it there... at least for now.

I'm going to try a small long at 152.60... 2 standard deviations from DP. 30p sl

Patiently waiting for a retrace to reload shorts, but it just won't stop...

UJ just broke 96.00... could be a while before longs are in order now.

You may very well be right Orion... looks like people want to try to take things into their own hands eh? url

Hmmm... wonder if 156.20 will still hold

Sell off on dow has muted down to almost even now... could send this up some more...

... hmmm... thought that was what 'last page' button was for...

Malcolmb, Do you use Bollinger Bands to let you know when to get into the long on gy? If not, what did you use to let you know it temporarily bottomed? Any ideas of where a good place is to reload on shorts?... maybe 5m 50ema?? If it makes it, lol. ...

Thanks for the reply Peaches... and look forward to you being right

Hi Peaches, How did you calculate this again?? I have never heard of this method before and was wondering how you came about it and is it fairly reliable as a target calculation tool... thanks in advance.
