    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    Enjoying the helpful discussion so far. I wonder if switching to ES at this time would be much better than YM, considering the noise that just came into this game. Be careful out there everybody: http://futurepathtrading.com/content/view/362/69/

    AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders

    Thanks again to Anekdoten for a generous and helpful thread. Regarding the stochastics question from billdobson1972, I am sure the charts that have been posted are from Tradestation and their feed. Judging from your question, you may be using Quotetracker with another feed, probably...

    Market Profile and Trade Station

    I am sorry, but have you really searched that long? (only about 8 minutes after omniscient posted the link you thanked him and replied you searched for days, but surely not from his URL :) ). Anyway try this from his URL and traderslaboratory ...

    Trade Station and Broker integration and 'Easylanguage' programing help!

    TS doesn't support trading Forex directly yet. You really should be researching this on the TS forum (need TS subscription), try searching "forex" or "forex api" https://www.tradestation.com/Discussions/Search.aspx

    "IB NOT a TRUE real time data source!"

    To this end, will Buttontrader support third party datafeed and brokers? Ninjatrader, for example is already on that path as being datafeed and broker independent. PS, would you consider setting up a BT user forum so users can search and ask and answer questions about BT there?

    Q - Stop Orders are based on Bid Price ?

    Personal experience with TOS last August for 2 months is that for stocks, it is very easy to get stopped out with any spikes in the data, even those that did not show an actual fill on charts from other brokers. This was an actual experience with RIMM in August 20 06. So, yes, it is a...

    IB EFP. what IB doesn't tell you about.

    Exchange for Physical : http://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/trading/pdfhighlights/PDF-ExchPhysical.php?ib_entity=llc Were you basically shorting these stocks with your spare cash without having an underlying long equity position? I am not sure if IB ever "advices" such a strategy, but given...

    "QuoteTrader with Interactive Brokers" webinar, Mon 7/16 at 1:30p, 4:30 e

    Same result here as described by CHACHA420 : checking entitlement. This is not a user or password problem. A successful registration process is just not automated - you will have to jump through additional hoops. There is no reason why you would need Esignal Data Manager authentication to log...

    IB is Refco 2.0!

    IB had plenty of opportunity to hedge their position by buying the 25% sell off in AAA - they chose not to and took a hit. You can claim manipulation all you want when the trade goes against you but the bottom line is that there were good tax reasons for traders to unload AAA before the...

    IB is Refco 2.0!

    Options market makers gladly take your money when typically 80% of options expired worthless. It is interesting how they resort to lawsuits when they lose a position eventhough they are the ones setting the pricing of options. It seems like a lack of hedging on their part in this and prior...

    Are IB accounts protected from fraud and unauthorized access?

    This spoonfeed bit is getting old. I have already stated previously that your ability or inability to prove this point about the one billion dollar loss is irrelevant to me (yes, that means no spoon feed please). I see no evidence that a properly set up segregated futures account is risky but...

    Are IB accounts protected from fraud and unauthorized access?

    It is unfortunate that members with thousands of posts under their belt cannot put together a cogent and definitive argument based on facts. The research I have done is posted URL above, with the 10K filings and others. Those customers that could show that their deposits were made into Refco's...

    Are IB accounts protected from fraud and unauthorized access?

    It is true that the 'no loses' mention should have been qualified as "since 1989" and/or (other than)"...customer defaults based on large trading losses". From your own source above : http://www.sec.gov/rules/proposed/s71701/sexton1.htm#P78_11411 The article you cited from the rather dated...
