Hilo, thanks for your reply. I will call erlanerquote to find out. I can’t tell whether they have the capabilities on first glance at their web site. My guess is no, but I may be wrong. I only mentioned InvestorRT and Realtick so that future posters would realize that they are not on my...

Does anyone know of a charting platform that can produce a three line break chart based off a tick chart, for example, off a 20 tick line chart? I know a number that produce three line break charts off the 1 min 5 min, etc. My current software which does well in most other areas, Ensign...

Nihaba Ashi You brought up the A&W comparison not me. Your recommending H&R Block for professional day traders is like someone asking me the name of a fine restaurant in the Chicago area and my telling them to go to a place named McDonald's (or A&W's). I'm sure they won't get a stomach ache...

Nihaba Ashi, I know you must have an affiliation with H&R Block or you wouldn't be pushing them so much. My experience with them has always been negative. Most of the people they employ are trained in a couple of weeks. They are generally people that are out to make some extra cash. They...

Here's an excerpt from a message I just sent to Pabst who was kind enough to reply to my original question. "I think I have a mental block about doing my own taxes. Probably because I don't believe in the present tax system. I mean, we had a little tea party in Boston about a 1% excise tax...

Thanks Darkhorse I went to your url and it looks interesting. I might have to resort to online tax preparation, but I'm really looking to establish a long term relationship with someone who has done a substantial number of equity and especially daytrading returns. Most preparers have never...

Does anyone know of a good tax preparer/financial planner who has a broad experience preparing for professional traders in the Chicago (Northside) or the northern suburbs? Thanks. LIV

Lancer provided some excellent links. Only a rank amateur would go to H&R Block. They are like an agent of the IRS. Because they guarantee to pay all penalties, they error on the side of giving too much to the government. Their agents who are generally non-professionals, looking for some...

I demoed the SortWizard and found it fast and very versatile because you can write your own formulas. It appears that it will do what you want it to. If you have any questions call Stephan at 314-567-0552. Tell him the guy with the Maine Coon cat recommended his product. I found the...

I haven’t seen any rooms dedicated to scalping in which traders share their collective insights on a stock for the purpose of learning how to scalp in an atmosphere of friendly competition. So I decided to start one. Basically this is how it will work: I have several NYSE stocks whose...

I just started demoing the SortWizard Plus version. It's $60/mo, but its free at Terra Nova-MB with a certain amount of trades. It comes with a number of stock programs, but you can write your own formulas. I just wondered if anyone else out there is using this program. How does it compare...

You always hear, no matter whether its in a book, seminar, or in a forum such as this one, "get confirmation". The more confirmation the better. I mean, it sounds logical, right? If all roads lead to Rome, get on any one of them, and you're going to be in Rome. The problem that I have is...

Lancer, thanks for the clarification.

Lancer, thank you for your response to my question. You say I should also consider RealTick. Does that mean you prefer it over the CyberTrader simulator? If so, I would appreciate knowing why its better. I'm just trying to learn. In any event I'll be calling MB Trading and thanks again...

I'm a newbie to day trading stocks, although I've day traded commodity futures for years. I stumbled on to this site and started reading these threads and was totally impressed by the volume and quality of information. I registered immediately. Before I had the problem of not enough...
