Hi Craig,

Thanks very much for this. Poor bastard.

The following words jumped out at me

“It doesn’t matter what you think, believe, or feel–all that matters is you execute…”

“Follow your f*cking rules. Every. Time.”

Wow, that’s great work Julian, well done!

[TerryDunne]

Great idea Chris!

It was lovely to meet the three of you and I’m already looking forward to the next time.

Hi Nick,

Same broker too.

I don’t know where the problem lies, but I will continue to talk with IB.

[TerryDunne]

Hi Oli,

I think the ‘discussion’ with IB will take some time…their response to the fact that MOC orders weren’t generated was effectively that they can’t help because MOC orders weren’t generated. I will speak to them again tomorrow.

I don’t really mind where the problem lies, but a problem with the API shouldn’t arise no matter how much the opening gap is, in my opinion anyway.

I was thinking about Ragazzi in Angel Place, from say 6.

[TerryDunne]

So far, it looks like just Nick Chris and me available? Any one else like to join in?

[TerryDunne]

Hi Oliver,

I had exactly the same system problem on that day. I have flagged it with IB to investigate, although that was a couple of days ago and I haven’t heard back yet. I suspect that you’ll find that the trades without MOCs were the ones hit right at the open.

I did have trades being held overnight with a war going on, so I wasn’t thrilled!

By the way, I have a rule for myself that I don’t look intra-day…a bit easier for me to follow as I’m asleep

Once I hear back from IB, I’ll let you know. I’m giving them today and will be chasing them tomorrow.

Best wishes,

Terry

I’m happy to find a place for Sunday 13/3 from 6. Just to confirm, is it drinks only or drinks and dinner?

Also, can anyone who wishes to attend please post again, so I have hard numbers (in case it includes dinner)

February 2022

MOC 1000 10.22%
MOC 2000 26.10%
MR 2000 0.00%

Total 12.81%

[TerryDunne]

Very nice indeed!

[TerryDunne]

Hi Kate,

I wasn’t going to reply, because I couldn’t think what to say, but I’ll go with…

You are in my thoughts and I wish good things for you moving forward. If ever Nick’s ‘next thousand trades’ was appropriate, it’s now. I hope that when we all have a face to face at some point in the future, you’ll be laughing about what a great lesson this was.

Best wishes,

Terry

The average DD from MCS is under 20% only in 3/12 systems. My worst system runs at 27%. I use UPI to allocate funds to each system (i.e. a lower UPI gets less) with the aim of keeping portfolio DD under 20%.

I do admire you young people…in thirty years I’ll be happy to just have my adult diaper changed!
