Tom,
It sounds like you have the best of both 
worlds.
I also trade EOD and am trying to change my 
attitude to a longer time frame than I currently trade.

Did you ever notice: When you put the 2 words "The" and "IRS" together 
it spells "THEIRS?"

  I trade Futures and Futures Options using EOD 
  data.
  I am a position trader and leave day trading to 
  those better suited for it.
  I can not or will not day trade because I 
  know I do not make good decision under pressure.  I need time to 
  analyze and select the best opportunities 
  from a variety of different markets so position trading is my strong 
  suit.
  For a lot of other reasons position trading 
  makes more sense for me because I do not want to be tied to a computer or 
  quote machine all day.  I make my trading decisions at night when the 
  pressure is off, email my orders to my broker for the next morning and then go 
  fishing.  Position trading provides me with the best of both 
  worlds.  I love trading and make my living at it.  My work day 
  starts at about 5 pm and runs until about 10 pm at which point I email my 
  broker and call it quits for the day.  The next day up until 5 pm I can 
  do whatever seems appropriate with my time.  If it's hunting season I go 
  hunting, if it's fishing season I go fishing, etc, etc etc.
  My way is not for everyone but that is why God 
  made us all different.
   
  God bless and best of wishes in all your future 
  endeavors,
  Tom

    I assume that this list is populated mainly with equity 
    (stock) traders, but for those of you that trade futures, do you trade 
    mainly off of EOD signals or RT?Seems that most futures traders 
    work mainly EOD but as more intraday trading techniques are developed, 
    it looks like it has some advantages.I chart and run my systems 
    on EOD data, but seeing RT data to better target an entry or exit 
    certainly would help. I'm sure that this is old for the equity guys but 
    do any futures traders do this?Got an entry or exit placement method to 
    share?-FPTo unsubscribe from this group,
