    But what about copper ?

    HGZ2 popped up with Gold at the open.......and then faded all day. $3.80 looks like formidable resistance for this bad boy. More bad news in construction today....I don't how copper can play bullish in a weak construction market.

    But what about copper ?

    But it's not "real" .....yet : Wages must also start to rise...but they have been flat for years now. Unless that occurs, we are NOT in an inflationary environment that is sustainable.

    But what about copper ?

    Point is guys: the QE3 inflation effect is really hitting the markets....and effectively providing a PUT option on commodities. If this effect "ends", look out below. If it doesn't, then shorting anything is stupid.

    Really ? So there is no effect on commodities prices from economic activity levels ?

    But what about copper ?

    I know everyone is talking about silver and gold. But here, in this weakening global economy, we have copper near $4/pound. Is this an obvious short or what am I missing ?

    Since this was replacing C/ASM, how did they match the performance ? Throw more hardware at it ?

    Daily Hottie

    Wow, thanks for that James. What's really incredible about Tamara is that she has so many different "looks"...and they're all outstanding from girl-next-door to drop-dead-gorgeous model.

    knight capital Rumors TACGNOL was involved in the knight capital mishap.

    Yep, being in the business, this is now the norm. I wonder if that Knight excecutive who had been bragging about the money they saved by going "Indian"...is still around ?

    Custom Trading Platform

    Exactly...and for these 2 reasons above, I'd rather be trading with my system, applying new trading systems, and backtesting versus constantly debugging and tweaking my custom platform.

    Custom Trading Platform

    Yeah Amazing, but they are trying to architect for multiple data feeds, multiple brokers. That's amazingly complex. I have a funny feeling your platform is "IB-Only". Not that it's bad....but I'm just saying you are comparing Apples to Oranges here.

    Custom Trading Platform

    After seeing this post, I now understand why custom platforms are in demand: http://www.multicharts.com/discussion/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=10480 Accomodating the nuances and quirks of the various broker's APIs is nothing short of a nightmare. Also, notice the finger-pointing.....

    Custom Trading Platform

    Dude, you are one incredible programmer....if all of this is "true/real" ! Holy sh*t, you'd be worth about $500k/yr at a major investment bank.

    Custom Trading Platform

    Oh I agree with this wholeheartedly. Always put every function and feature "on the design table" BEFORE WRITING A SINGLE LINE OF CODE.

    Custom Trading Platform

    Unless it is highly specialized (options, baskets, pairs-trading) and thus requires special features, it is a foolish endeavor to create this very complex piece of software. Tradestation failed once doing it...however, their new platform is darn good as is Multicharts which just rolled out a...
