Tom, you probably know that TS 5 will have support for realtime DTN and internet feeds. For the futures impaired... how much profit is 2 pts on the futures? I know options short, long & upside down, (ie:10 contracts 1 pt move =$1k)
but how much $ is one futures contract? how many is your normal trade?

You have mentioned before a lot of times the trade initially goes your way but you get stopped out at times. Have you ever tested if you took part of the position off at an initial profit before it hit your target and let the other ride?

thanks
ps being short futures, is that like buying a put or like selling a naked index option?
