    Service Identifying Market direction

    Does that mean predicting reversals at 80% accuracy, or merely going with the market?

    Thank you for the link. On that website, he gives a link for Aaron L. Task for ratings purposes, i.e. link: Thestreet.com (Real Money), with various commentators. Any thoughts about this service?

    Stock play: rock bottom after rock bottom

    Also not stocks that took steady declines over time, rather a big dip, and then a second big dip on basically the same news. For example, if RIGL would take another big dip with no sound reason, other than maybe shorts looking for another excuse.

    Service Identifying Market direction

    Those who view stocks as rolling dice, I would like to ask why they invest? Those who gave tips, thank you. Many services piggy-back current direction of the market, but can't identify reversals. It would seem that identifying threat of reversals is the key. If you have more information...

    Stock play: rock bottom after rock bottom

    For clarification: For starters, you have identified a value stock, based upon LOW price, but strong underlying assets and potential etc. Yet people who short stocks with bad news, ignore the fact it is alrady a value, and ignore the fact the news is just a repeat of an earlier syndrom. The...

    Stock play: rock bottom after rock bottom

    In my opinion, the best stock to buy is the one which simply CAN'T go any lower; i.e., even after it was a very good buy at e.g. $12, it still went down to $8 because e.g. they announced they would not file a statement on time. I thought it would be a fun/ good thing for people to share what...

    If you are in the market, it would seem to me additional buyers will give the stock a boost.

    API orders, secrecy

    Response to DeltaDelta: If I understood correctly from SideShowBob in a PM, if I place an order to buy e.g. options at bid price, along with a conditional cancellation (e.g. if underlying stock goes in the wrong direction), that the condition is not viewed by anyone, and no special software...

    API orders, secrecy

    Can anyone clearly define what type of API orders are visible by others (the exchange?), and what type have absolute secrecy?

    Building options screening tool from scratch

    Re: RiskArb and MurrayTurtle: Just noticed your communication regarding number of option plays available with small gaps between bid and ask. I think you guys should make friends and be supportive for each other; you never know when you will need someone else's help.

    Automated trading through Excel

    Programming people: Can anyone help? If I would like to place a conditional order e.g. to buy 50 call options at $1, and I would like the order to cancel automatically, (or for adjustment in price) if e.g. the underlying stock drops by $1, can this be done in DDE Excel? Or must it be done in...

    Building options screening tool from scratch

    To hedgeyourbets, PowerOptions I believe is the only service out there with a full market scan. If you want to do your own, it will probably cost you $1k-$2k per month. I do overnight downloads from DeltaNeutral and had a programmer make a filter for me to help prepare watch list. If the...

    It was CBOE on my end; maybe your right about AMEX on the other end.

    Reply to riskarb: I am not an employee, but a customer with a lot of experience, including two months with over 50k contracts. I don't think IB lets you see the six underlying option markets with bid/ask simultaneously with the other legs in the order, so it increases the risk of "waiting...

    Reply to RiskArb: The 25k does not have to be achieved by any individual, rather as a group effort. I do about 5k contracts, another Elite Trader just told me he does 6k contracts, others less; when getting to 25k contracts, those Elite Traders will save a combined $5k-$6k per month...
