Any automation for take profits or stops?

3 fills, 3 shorts, 3 winners, +0.25 average. Good., could even have been better. lol, wasn't sure I wanted to play that open. Played wide, cancelled 50%.

They gap because they show actual trades that took place and not the bid/ask.

4 fills, 2 longs, 2 shorts, 3 winners, 1 loser, +0.01 average. Shaken out on one, good stop on 2. Played wide.

I think Don report fills as a sum of all trades, not an average as I do.

Mostly large caps here, over 500M market cap, 1M average daily volume are a minimum. Maybe more. Spreads in lower caps may kill you. I'm thinking 10-20 cents and then you want to cut it out! I dont see any reason why lower caps would be less volatile. Less trades for sure but they may also...

10 fills, 2 longs, 8 shorts, 7 winners, 3 losers, +0.07 average. Good day. Mostly financials. A little sloppy on the news, went more aggressively. I had this feeling that it would be good since the ES was up. But still a little larger on the envelope. 2 late losers, USB, VMW.

Away today.

Best Poll :p

7 fillls, 5 longs, 2 shorts, 3 winners, 4 losers, -0.03 average. Nothing much to get. Palyed widder, cancelled 50%. This starts to be another harsh month.

If you dont get an answer from here, there is an InteractiveBroker Yahoo group where you could try. http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/TWSAPI/ I assume you went to the IB bulletin board. http://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/p.php?f=ibchat_bb&ib_entity=llc Best of luck

By high frequency what do you mean? My definition is x trades per second or a trade within a second. If you mean 100 trades per day it's very different and people may answer differently IMO.

On days like that (sort of late momentum reversal) many stocks are not priced yet on the downside so it's better to miss than buying something that may fall down. I did the same.

3 fills, 2 longs, 1 short, 2 winners, 1 loser, + 0.06 average. Wide on the envelope, cancelled 50%.

The higher is goes, the better the profit when we will short it.

I think many people misunderstand what is a prop firm. They dont hire, you just get in. People saying that are looking at a salaried position I think.

This is the Retail Firm thread, not psycho.

I have no clue what same store sales are but it seems that retailers report that from time to time. I dont care what that means for the stocks. I just cut them from my list. I read the news in Yahoo and it was there from 3 different sources. Reading the news in Yahoo for your stocks is a...

4 fills, 4 shorts, 2 winners, 2 losers, -0.04 average. Kind of my fault. Chased a 25 cents profit all the way down to 1 cent. Got shaken out on stops on 2. Played larger this morning, especially on buys.
