I dropped $100 into a Cantor Exchange account to try their binaries. Like Nadex, they're US regulated. I've had my eye on them for a while. Liquidity is still an issue, but there are some opps there. Not sure how long I'll stay there.

Home run on a Nadex Spread for Crude Light. $63 per closed out. Price dropped quite a bit more, but I took profit when price dropped to my target. I need to figure out the Apex trailing stop trigger for spreads. USDCAD OTM binary loss. SP binary ...

Home run on the GBPUSD. I'm glad I went with a spread instead of a binary. My spot GBPUSD I had on since yesterday had the trailing stop trigger right after the London open so that trade missed the 350+ move. My dollar yen short I've had on gave ...

S&P Loss today. cheap Spread at 2430 finished OTM. ITM binary at 2440 was ITM all day until the last hour. Ouch.

I'll be busting out the Gann stuff again, soon. My charting tools were all built pre-mt4 build 600 and I've needed to tweak to get them to work. I've also built a bunch of tools for nadex trading I'll be releasing to the public like a bad case of ...

Didn't trade yesterday. Slow start to the week this morning. Was short SP but messed up somewhere and accidently closed the thing setting up my one touch take profit. Lost about $10/per on that one. Didn't re-enter because price/time had ...

With Nadex spreads, the indicative isn't a true 1:1 relationship to the option profit/loss. Plus, with the spreads, price needs to move enough to cover the "premium". Sort of like having to cover the bid/ask spread in a spot trade.

How's Nadex treating you these days? I took a break from it for a while but been back at it for a few months. Mostly doing OTM's with orders setup for one touch's on the strike for the London Breakout through NY Open and then a few ITM/ATM's during ...

Price dropped to both targets, but not before expiry. The SP was partly covered by the previous long I cut short. Which would have cashed later had I held on to it. Pretty interesting how the cycle low picked up the bottom dropping out on both. ...

Cashed the SP early with $8/per profit. Not much, but I'll take it. Short OTM looking 2342 on the touch. url Short USDUPY OTM 110.40 on the touch. url

I fired up and re-funded the Oanda account mid March to get back into the swing of swing of trading. It's up almost 20% on the slow and steady. Too bad CFD's aren't traded here in the US. My Windsor demo account is doing pretty well. At least in ...

Wow. Got the touch. Pretty much had written this one off. Glad I went OTM on the cheap rather than ATM or ITM. The thing spent most of the day against me. url Same for SP. OTM on the cheap. Saved by the bell. Had I let it expire, it would have ...

Took off 1.0660 with small profit. Call it a scratch. Long OTM 1.06800 set to cash on the touch.

More likely to be not. Weekly Oil Inventory today. This trade was already covered by yesterday's EURUSD long semi-scalper.

Short EURUSD OTM 1.0660 (seeing a pattern here?) Not a good price, though. Looking for price to get to 1.0650 or lower before it cashes. I set an order last night to short OTM 1.0680 but it didn't fill. That one would be sitting pretty about now. ...

Oh... and that trade was to pay for the Oil trade. So now the Oil is covered and has a week to hit my target. Or not.
