Sorry if this has been covered before, but if I want to load either a single stock or a ratio of 2 stocks to one another, and I have a MACD set up, is there any trading software that gives me a crossover signal. Not looking to trade from that quite yet, just looking for the alert for now Any...

On a related note, if you do listen to the TOS Squawk, you wont find anyone better than Brad Augunas at Shadow Trader. He is 100% transparent, tells you his setups well in advance along with exact stops and has a methodology for every trade he enters. Plus, he is giving you great trading rules...

i am trading all liquid names and if i run TOS simultaneously to IB Pro, there is zero difference in execution time or price. IB has a great front end workstation, but its not worth paying $5,000 a month in added commissions to get have no discernible execution difference, and to use tools that...

Thank you so much for the input....Prob a different strategy if/when short vol especially over a weekend, the ideal scenario is to wake up and find the market has not moved within a 200 point range or this weekend, a 800 point range, which its already close to doing

Yes...IB has peg bench and delta adjust orders direct on their platform with IB Pro but they strip it away along with most software on IB Lite. And yes, the guy at LiteSpeed is as good as advertised and very knowledgeable, they are probably a very good fit for those who trade semi liquid or...

great value add.....

I have read so many times that market makers "hunt" for stop losses and after they take them out they reverse the market. Additionally, everyone knows where key support and resistance levels are, so many stops tend to get placed right around the same levels, which become a self fulfilling...

i have a Portfolio Margin Account at IB and going to IB Lite strips away many of the trading tools I like to use , although I see absolutely no difference in executions between their Pro and Lite platforms. Their commission rate is just way too expensive in this day and age (still around 1/2...

@drm7 Thank you so much - wasnt using the () so was getting bad values......Much appreciated !!!

tried Traing View but it didnt give me a ratio it gave me a negative number as if i was subtracting one from the other....is there a specific way to do this????

Not quite sure how to read that Anyway, if AAPL had twice the beta of SPY than the chart would theoretically divide AAPL stock price by 2 and would show a chart of Aapl divided by 2 divided by SPY

Thanks but o am looking to chart the ratio of stockA over stock B but beta weighted

I like to pair trade and find that often, its not as simple as taking stock A-stock B or even Stock A/ Stock B. that might work for XOM/CVX but if I am looking at 2 banks and one has a beta of 1.25 and the other a beta of .75, then simply looking at most charting packages wont give me a true...

love your thinking Nooby - you want to go into PR :) but yes, I am truly serious about my offer, it isnt a gimmick and is a win-win for whoever hires me

appreciate your response Tedroes but I am specifically looking for funds in the 10MM - $200MM range that are still in a growth phase and can be creative in the ways they compensate people, which would make my hiring effectively FREE for them. Firms like Bridgewater would be too vanilla for...

I am an experienced portfolio manager who has found a way for a hedge fund to hire me for free as long as it is making at least $1MM a year, which is why I targeted 10Mm-$100MM hedge funds. Does anyone have suggestions on how I can best reach them thru boards like this as opposed to having...

If I wanted to test a strategy between 2 stocks - for example RCL and CCL and see how one performed versus the other ahead of key dates (earnings, dividends) is there a free program i can use to make a strategy and see what the results would be for example, if I wanted to buy 100 shares of...

@FSU - appreciate the advice but actually the opposite situation.

Thank you Robert . I like Lightspeed but their rates were more than double what E-Trade can offer

@clacy - thanks for your response and the I use the charts there all the time and they are great and they are a good VISUAL aid. What I am looking to do is monitor over 100 types of these ratios real time (perhaps in excel) to know when MACD crossover opportunities exist or are about to exist...
