    Technical Analysis Doesn't Work

    Sorry to interrupt your friendly conversation, but what's all the fuss about? The Dow reversal pattern existed and worked 100 years ago and still does today as seen at the bottom of the decline on 8/17 in a 5 minute chart of the S&P 500. The basis of TA! If you learn and stick to the...

    Anyone else w/open position due 2 zero notification from IB HKFE closing 4 typhoon?

    >Steve_IB The same problem of BookTrader showing only best bid/ask 1 for JGB on TSE has been going on for so long now that I have just learned to accept it as the norm. If I open BookTrader before the market opens, it will, 9 times out of ten, show only best bid/ask 1 when the market...

    Post your QuoteTracker screenshot

    Would someone be so kind as to identify any advantages to using QuoteTracker if you already subscribe to eSignal i.e. how might the charts be better than eSignal's while using eSignal for the data feed with QuoteTracker. Thank you

    Barcharts OR Candlesticks (daytrading eminis)

    Just for those who might find it interesting, the very same thing can be said for traders here in Japan too!! Other than line charts, all printed charts are candlestick. Most of the software provided by brokers has both canclestick and bar charts. But almost nobody in Japan uses the analysis...

    TWS recent builds issues

    >Bitstream Are you not closing TWS and reopening it? It so, you are just going back to square one. Try keeping TWS open and closing and reopening only BookTrader. Why don't you put this on IB's board. You should get a better response.

    TWS recent builds issues

    >OldTrader I'm sure he means the just released 875. >Bitstream Reopening BookTrader is the fix IB gives in its board. It works for me, and I guess thousands of others. You must have a Java or other problem.

    TWS recent builds issues

    >Bitstream I open, close, reopen BookTrader before the market opens. It then usually show all levels. If it doesn't when the market opens, close it and reopen it again. It should then be ok the rest of the day.
