I'm afraid you're missing the point when you are talking about creating shells to maximize FDIC insurance or spread the risk over multiple...
Good idea. If that doesn't work, we can all try this: http://www.emailsanta.com/ I asked him to reduce gas prices to 30 cents a gallon and...
Yes it will, but you have to use a tick database, which is a problem because the database only holds 500,000 bars. I found a workaround solution...
It was really surprising to find out so many were NT's. I'm an ENTJ, with a borderline E like the OP. This can't be a coincidence.
Question. I know there are a huge number of CL contracts traded, but when I'm looking at IB Book Trader it looks like the bid/ask sizes are...
Surdo, what do you mean by CL is a monster? Isn't CL just twice as large as QM? I don't know much about crude at this point but I'm interested...
IMO the most annoying thing a customer service person can do is to not actually read your inquiry but send a canned response based on the subject...
TWS did recognize the position, just not immediately. Some kind of technical hiccup I guess. I used Scottrade two brokers ago. They have...
Not in my case. I canceled the original stop order (that was an attachment to the entry order) and re-entered a stop. No dice. Then I tried a...
Yes and Yes (sort of, SMART). No problems before or since. I just upgraded to the latest version. Maybe that will help.
Why would a stop fail to execute on IB Book Trader? I know it wasn't a communication failure because the prices were updating. It was a regular...
I agree. Aside from their sometimes surly representatives, I have found their service quite acceptable in the past 18 months. I am, however,...
I did at 11:06:40 Eastern time. This was pretty scary, especially if stop orders had not been honored while the system was down. The moral of...
Is this just about judgment? I have played around with ATR and other measures of volatility, but haven't found anything that helps as a chop...
I'm envious, not only because you're in Palm Springs, but because I think if I could learn to recognize chop early I'd be a billionaire. Today...
So you're saying the anchor chart is showing higher highs and higher lows but your base chart is showing lower lows and lower highs, so you should...
I have not found the perfect combination, so if you do please let me know. Every charting package and data source has its advantages and...
TD, I don't think there is a HUGE advantage either way and I agree that making the charts look similar is a matter of tweaking the values. Based...
A time-based (or tick-based) chart gives equal weight to a bar with one contract traded or 1,000 contracts traded, which seems to be a flawed...
No. A lot of people claim one thing leads another, like another popular thread here assumes that YM leads ES. The truth is all the indexes tend...
