    Trading Natural gas using T/A

    Natural gas is one of the easiest markets to trade by price alone. You don't need candlesticks (they are just ohlc bars with a visual aid). Thin markets are often good ta markets just harder to execute in. A higher percentage of fa's makes ta easier. Lets get real: TA is just...

    IB lowered margin requirements?

    Blessed are the fuckwits :) I note that HSI margins are still up ... but why ... is IB stealing (lol) from the humble trader ... no, HSI daily ranges are 3x what they were a few months ago and intraday moves are 5x what they were. So IB are just protecting conservative traders from the...

    IB data fees and staff contradictory replies

    For crying out loud Malignant (no, sorry, you're doing that with all your whinging and screaming). Most markets are free so your 4 market argument is complete crap. When the market data providers want to charge IB for the data then they charge us - when its free they don't. Which is kind...

    Market looks to have double topped...

    I remember thinking the same thing about oil back around 40 bucks. Remember: A failed double top is a good signal too.

    IB data screwed up

    How does the problem manifest go4. I just ran 878.1 and the stoplimits show up on TWS properly. Are you saying that it doesnt do what shows on the trading page?

    IB data screwed up

    Thanks for the warning go4, I had a problem with 878.0 a couple of betas back so have been with 877 since. But what was the issue (because stop limits were fine for me). Also did it relate to a particular order entry platform because both Hong and I had identified the earlier problem (which...

    Fast Hard Drive?

    Something to remember about Raptors (if you care) is that they are noisy little suckers compared with slower drives.

    Motherboard and Graphics card for 6 monitor setup

    Agreed re the comments on the matrox cards. The only one I bought sits in a cupboard now. Go mainline (nvidia) for better compatibility, better processor utilization, and better value for money.

    Should I switch to Interactive Brokers or stay with Optionsxpress to trade options?

    Dont move to IB until you really understand what you're doing and how they do it. Spend time reading the whinging threads here by people who didn't do their homework and then blamed IB. You can probably learn a lot from the responses suggesting what they should have done. IB isn't going to...

    Did I get screwed by IB today ?

    If you losers can't even manage the ignore button its no wonder you have such a problem with your broker. Funny how your type always blames everyone but themselves. Not surprising. Just amusing.

    Moving all cash from IB to Alaron Trading

    could I backfill data from IB tws with owndata and amibroker at the same time?

    They shouldn't do. I can backfill two instances of Sierra Chart simultaneously. The obvious issue is that if you're doing it with two data sinks you'll run up against IB's "you've asked for too much data too fast errors" more quickly.

    Mix of AGP and PCI-regular

    Dont know about the agp pci stuff but you can do two screens on a card with DVI and Analogue (not sure about your card as you don't quote the numbers). You can do a mix of dig and analog screens or u can use converters and drive two of the same off the card.
