But look at that trend ... a trader's dream. :)

Thats a surprise. I run zonealarm free on a amd 2600+ (fairly slow) with only half a gig of ram. I get 7 meg download without issues. Edit: You aroused my curiosity so I tried the ZDNet speed test. 7816 kbps with it and the same (both higher and lower by a fraction) without it.

Those are tests of outbound issues. Unless I get this completely wrong your pc needs to be penetrated for them to be issues and good (free) virus/malware protection will detect most of them. Most are using their firewall for inbound protection and zonealarm free does a good job in this...

Not really. The idea is that you need losses or you won't have winners. So if you accept that you will get a flow of losers and winners on your way to a profitable day (week, whatever) then you can love your losers as well as your winners because they are an essential part of the profitable...

The answer is simple. Virus producers test their viruses on the market leading products before release if they are "good." That means Norton (who are for some reason hated in that community) and McAfee type products. If you're off the mainstream your product has a better chance of not having...

As you no doubt figured out before the market opened - if apocalypse came your emini position wouldnt matter. :cool:

It depends illiquid. But you can work it out fairly easily. I believe most phones use much less than 64000 bps each way (more like 15,000bps so that you can just use them with dial modems and internet connections). Even 64,000bps is much less than the 7,000,000 bps I get on my cable and...

cvds's answer is right but might be a bit short for you. I believe you can do it with IB's TWS Booktrader but you can certainly do it automatically with bracket trader, zeroline trader, ninja trader and other IB front ends. You place your order with a bracket exit associated with it. The...

We've had a pretty reasonable day on asian markets so far. Gap down to compensate for you guys and then some nice (little sadly) down moves to trade. Dont u go getting crazy on 6 6 6 :)

Good Post ddunbar.

LOL cscott, So the evidence of your posts suggest : 1) that you are working for another broker trying to knock IB (all but one and poorly with it) or just very stupid; 2) that you are homophobic and not particularly funny; 3) that you, the troll, label myself and others for lack of...

Interactive Brokers with Sierra Chart and Bracket Trader or ZeroLine Trader.

LOL cscott ... as someone who's entire posting (except the first which was perhaps the dumbest thread ever started on ET) is dedicated to a stupid attack on IB ... perhaps you will troll elsewhere? Its great to be able to reuse posts. Just as a reminder Cscott=troll: Only one person is...

You may have more users here than other places and given our satisfaction level then, yes, ET posters are mostly "for Interactive Brokers." Those who post legitimate issues (and some do) get helpful responses from users and ib staffers here. But on the other hand we get some truly stupid...

Interactive Brokers and one of the IB front ends (ninjatrader or zerolinetrader of brackettrader) should let you do that.

Absolutely the right attitude Optionpro. I felt a little like someone telling the kids that Santa Claus was really Dad when I put that post together so its good to see how one can accept that the "science" is very pseudo and gain from the story. Something you might also enjoy in the mental...

Possibly, but treat it purely as entertainment. But one might very well read a little analysis of it as well. Remember that the "big lies" that are best are the ones that we want to believe (it worked for Hitler). Read the ABC article if you want to get a grip on reality :) Like the...

Best answer so far.

Try Sierra Chart Good charting with IB without the lag that esignal sometimes suffers and flexible tools. Other data sources as well.

The suggestion of using targets (rather than some form of trailing stops) can provide a 70-80% win rate with the right style of entry. Although 99atlantic can be right about the expectancy of the system he can also be wrong -- depends on the system. A pullback entry of some form plus an...
