This is such total B.S. Has anyone contacted Google about this problem with Chrome ? To me, given their stellar reputation for only hiring the best and the brightest, might this not be INTENTIONAL ? GOOG hates MSFT...that is known. GOOG hates ORCL...read the papers. GOOG hates anyone who gets...

Simple stuff in Easy Language....which is specific to trading. VBA/Excel is not. You've got a lot of functionality to build before you can do this. You need functions for determining your position, your time-in-trade, and then a trailing stop function for those positions in the money. Good luck !

The CNBC "Fast Money" boys are all over this short...with debit Put spreads....

One solution: fund a new TOS account; D/L the great software; pull your money out, leave $500 in the account.

Anyone referencing the past for future guidance for investing IN THIS WORLD ECONOMY has got to be kidding, right ? Rational: the crisis that is still unfolding is without precedent....Gold, crude oil, european riots, no American jobs.....this is crazy stuff. Have you all gotten drunk from...

Note the huge debate on who's hotter: Sara vs. Megyn Kelly.

Babu - that wasn't nice.

Keith Fitschen's Presentation on DVD. I see he no longer has that for sale.... http://www.keithstrading.com/

Interesting comment....I've always said that as well. The only difference is time-frame and the average trade duration. That being said, the important difference may be this: Counter-trend strategies have been proven to be more effective INTRADAY than trend following.

I can't believe I started this thread back in July with TBT in the 30's ! Support at 19 looks strong. The Fed "put" seems to support a long position. TBT was at 21 just 10 days ago.

Exactly. Reason ? Excel is not secure. All passwords can be uncovered. VBA code is not secure either.

I know, I know...I had expected them to deliver a blockbuster new release in 7.0, but perhaps it's a "dud" ? It took them forever to get it out the door. I once saw a comparison of Easy Language vs. C# and the Ninja platform. It took almost 5 times the amount of code to do in Ninja that...

Not for me.....I'll take the smaller titted one in the black suit with the smokin hot athletic body.

ISO orders can be devastating without circuit-breaker logic. Well, that sums it up.

Yes but liquidity is a huge factor and should have been taken into consideration by the software. I mean if the algos are offering at 10x the bid size at 1 tick under the last print, you've got to reroute or freeze those orders, right ? Otherwise, the bid drops, and then the algos cancel and...

I don't think there are any standards related to this type of software. I mean anyone could write a order-matching engine. In the case of BATS, someone knew there was no circuit breaker logic. I wonder who put out the word ? Some underpaid programmer ?

re: "that article"....What a huge load of B.S. 1) The Waddell and Reed Flash Crash occurred at the CME because the stupid people there didn't have a limit on the number of contracts PER ENTITY. It was specified per TRADER. Had the proper order limit been PROGRAMMED (it's the software !!!)...

Sounds simple...but what happens when you Buy at the bid and the bid goes down ? When do you cover ? Really, really sophisticated algos know how LONG TO WAIT before pulling the plug. In other words, if they don't get filled within a certain amount of time, they "pull" the order.

There are literally hundreds of strategies that are employed. Also, with the advent of ETFs and ETNs, the possibilities have really expanded lately.

Likely caused by crappy Indian outsourced software....with a result just like what Marriot experienced: http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/30113287/detail.html
