Thanks for the replies. I did some simulations on intraday data and I can be sure that the system works even with 15:55 "closings". Can someone provide some tips about my other question: "In my simulations I have considered an average spread of 2 cents per side as slippage costs...

I now have read everything I could find about afterhours trading.. and I understand that this would be extremely difficult. So I am considering the preclose solution again. Actually, with nasdaq I can send simulated MOC or LOC orders through IB. *The problem is with Nyse*, since MOC orders...

No afterhours traders here?

I have designed a countertrend trading system that makes entries at Close of the day and holds positions for a few days. The exits are also at Close. The average profit is about 2% and the frequency of trading is about 5 entries (in different stocks) at a given day. The stocks I am concidering...

Where can I find historical values for fundamentals like P/B ratio and Capitalization ? I need about 5 years of history for Nasdaq stocks. Does QuotePlus offer historical fundamentals ? Thanks for any help

Thanks, and just one more question.. Is it required that my provider should be one of them listed at the esignal quotrek site ? I ask this because I am not located in US, but I can have access to internet (through a local telecom network) via GPRS. Is this gonna work or I have to go with...

"I have run strategies which work on the clean ticks of NQ on QQQ data and the results are significantly different." Hypostomous, do you think that someone could base his signals on NQ real time data and place the trades on QQQ, for better position sizing (smaller lots) purposes ? I am...

Yes, the additional commission costs slightly downgrades the profitability of the system, but the equity curve remains excactly the same. I assume 2.4$ per side per contract for NQ, and 0.005$ per share for QQQ (IB rates). My concerns are mostly whether other factors such as wider spreads or...

Is it possible to use a pocketpc connected to internet via GPRS, to utilize Quotrek ? Speed of connection is about 3.5 kbytes/sec. I wan to watch just 2-3 symbols. Thanks
