    IB lagging and stuck quotes for ES

    I had a horrible lag on ES & NQ yesterday. IB tech support verified their end was ok. Trace route showed bad internet lag. IB tech support was also talking to another account holder located about 20 miles from me (I am in Colorado Springs) with same problem. It appears that Qwest.net DSL...

    IB: Trade record-keeping software.

    ddefina, I used Tradelog last year and I loved it. I had three different brokers and it worked great with all of them. Very easy to use. I will be using it again this year.

    software for futures trading

    Michal, I have been using eSignal/IB (paper trading only at this point) for the past 3 months for E-mini's. Runs on AMD 900 mhz with 3 monitors and DSL. No problems at all. I am completely satisfied. Also had to run it on 33k dialup line for a few days recently. Again, no problems. I...

    56K for Charting

    trader88, I have DSL service from Qwest (Colorado Springs) and they supplied a Cisco 675 router (had a lot of Code Red problems but they supplied a software patch which appears to have solved that one - for a while) which is connected to DSL. I use Windows ME networking to feed the 3 CPU's...

    56K for Charting

    Trader88, I run RT III, eSignal and several chatrooms on 3 separate computers simultaneously on a single 480K DSL connection. Forget the dialup (except for a backup) and run everything at one time on the cable. You will be fine.

    Ken Calhoun's Trading Room

    Shortnfool, As close as I could tell his alerts (not his actual trades since he says he was not doing any ???) were about 70% winners. His target is approx. 1/2 point (long or short) on 200 shares. This was during July (things then better than August). He recommends that you not trade his...

    Ken Calhoun's Trading Room

    Michael, I was a member for about 3 months. Ken's technique is to buy above the previous day's high ( short below the previous day's low) with some advanced intraday trades after you become comfortable with the high/low trades. He runs a no nonsense room which is refreshing after some of...

    Help: Intraday Trading Range Scanning

    I use http://www.cnbc.com scanner (free) to do a similar scan looking for NAS stocks with > 2.o intraday range, > 1.5M shares per day and price $20 to $40. I reset this list about 2 times a month or when the market has moved up or down significantly. Good luck!
