Thanks for the heads up Scott... Yes I am aware of the slide in live orders and that fills are not always exactly where you want them. However, I was watching the market and was ready at the exact moment because of the TP at 9:50....also there was a lower tine near 1330±. I would have been set up and ready to punch..... As you say, I have no idea if the fill caught 1330....also if I'd entered any higher in that fall waiting for 9:50 Tp...I'd have been out with a serious loss There is another learning curve coming shortly and that will cover trading and integration of style with fills, etc. BTW...I also would not be chatting with you at this moment. Something you have already mentioned. Further more...1355 is very close to my target(1357) and in real time I'd not be sitting here looking at the ticker asking myself if I should have sold.....That would be dumb and done. I hope live results will be close to paper plays... Atleast until then I can try to emulate the patterns and system I have developed and make sure they are as real as possible in approaching each trade. I just sold one at 1358 My STOP is raised to 1345es on 1 contract. Note: Money Management I had a long from yesterday afternoon at 2:10 and 1351es that was stopped out for +2 Chip
