Is the opening you discuss the cash or futures?
Dear Ripe-Traders,
Thanks again for this blog.
The other important question besides futures or cash market is: was the trade filled this morning then?
Thanks, Joe
The opening is based on the futures price. Just an FYI , the opening of cash is always equal to the prior days close so you wont ever see a gap in cash. And yes the trade was filled at todays open and will exit at tomorrows open based on the 1st profitable open if the open is greater than todays 781.5 entry. So far 28 S&P pts in 1 day not a bad days work. Sorry for the late reply but Im out of pocket during market hours.
