Sorry. I always assume everyone's doing what I'm doing. I'm trading 25 diverse and liquid futures markets. Indices, currencies, energy, ag, interest rates, metals. I adjusted the TS point value for each market to reflect their respective volatility, and I'm just hoping that the slippage will be a factor of the volatility, on average (all other things being equal).
