looks like it wants to fill yesterdays close gap with the way the market is now getting 20 twice with 3 contracts should be very doable. making 600 is a very nice day

Seeing as how you changed your money management, maybe we could all get together and make a spreadsheet to see which technique works the best i.e. fixed target or hold and trail stop?

BTW, H, are you +1 at +6?

Do any of you guys have a screenshot of a simple buy/sell stop settings in Sierra? I've looked at the documentation but I'm not getting it.

Muchas Gracias

That's about normal these days that is why I give it a few minutes before engaging especially with 133 tick charts. 2 trades today 1 1/2 minutes of trading and done gotta love that

I have greyed out boxes in the trade window and I'm wondering if its because I'm using Sierra in a Mac program (or there are limited settings available in sim).

It would have been if I'd had chart mode switched on, doh. Hey, who knew?

I'd hoped it would play nice with Mac without having to run it in a processor hogging virtual machine. But looks like I have no option as it is playing up and giving me error logs when I use anything other than a normal buy or clear all from the trade window.
