Baron told me that dont was a little boy who suffered obsessive delusions and a little paranoia ... I guess he was right (seeing that I was removed from the negative one's ignore list :)).

I've never had an oz account (i live up on gold coast). Have had etrade once and a number of us stock and futures brokers. I like IB because I've not yet found anyone better. They annoy sometimes because they don't always do what I want and the help desk people are limited in their ability...

If anyone reading this thread seriously wants to be happier you might try these two books as places to start: Authentic Happiness :: Using the new Positive Psychology .... Seligman Happiness: A Guide to Developing Life's Most Important Skill .... Ricard (I can't believe I put...

Yes. Its true that more ram is not the solution. The solution is probably to rebuild your OS and apps from a reformatted C drive. You might want to dump vista and install xp while you're at it (put vista back on when MS gets up to SP2 as the stories about SP1 are not encouraging). This "my...

LMAO guys. Enjoy the move. They were my second futures broker. I didn't leave them because they were expensive. Nor did I leave them because they were good. A friend of mine tried them a year later (cause they were cheap) and he was gone in about 4 months. But good to see idiots like...

Jimmy, You might find there is much to be learnt in asking yourself the question: "just why does everyone argue with me?" :)

Remember that tws hides functions you don't use for a while (after asking your permission of course). I'm sure you can find it if you look.

Leverage is irrelevant. Sure it lets people be stupid but its like a gun ... if you don't point it at your head and pull the trigger it probably won't kill you. The question is what's the risk between your entry and your stop (+slippage) for each position. Then: what percentage of your...

If it seems to you that the market moves illogically then you are not seeing clearly. The moves are very logical when you consider the objectives of the players and the tactics they use.

To change your patience ANNA Anticipate when you will feel impatience Notice it when it happens Name it .. fear? boredom? Address it ... have a plan for when it happens like walk away and do 40 pushups Just feel it and keep naming it. This will move ur mental processing to ur...

I think jim just means that they need the right kind of criticism Chris. Just like we do. If you get shit day in and day out from your parent (if ur a teenager) of from ur teenager (if ur a parent) you neither hear it nor respond to it well. I've been getting IB to fix a few little things...

Personally I get too much shit in my mailbox anyway. But why use ur device twice? I use mine once to log into TWS then I hit the View/Account Management menu on TWS. Up comes a browser window then select what you want. And yes you can export to quicken, money and other things. I use...

Yes, I have access to them.

You can write your own software to relog you in with something like Autoit but its probably easier to get the stuff from the IB TWSAPI group on yahoo. http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/TWSAPI/files/Auto%20Login%20Codes/ The only problem is they won't put the numbers in for ur new...

Good thread Anek ... fulfilling the promise of that first post. This last point is a great one. One of the worst things that can happen early in your trading career is to succeed with some spectacular reversal trades. Even worse if you advertise them to your buddies. Because you've created...

I don't give a fuck what IB think about me ... and my comment about you was that at least you put a question mark at the end of the heading. You could have avoided the "I get screwed" bit and kept it factual then you might not have got your arse paddled so much. Come on ... lets be real ...

I probably disagree. If by evidence of supply and demand you mean "does price action follow many of the same tradable supply and demand related patterns of behaviour that you see in futures" then the answer is yes. Examples would be resistance and highs and lows and the use of so called...

Why would a real md need to say "professional doctor" and for that matter since when was it a trade? Also why confuse the profession with regulations as in "medical professional regulations."

No. Its neither volume nor (really) ticks worth a damn. It reflects the number of transactions at YOUR exchange/bucketshop/whatever. If you want forex volume you'd be better off translating the futures volume for the equivalent contracts ... at least there you can get an honest view of...

ADK, If he was one it would be conceited not ... And if thats what you mean its time to become SIK (scaling in king) instead because adk just makes you look like an idiot. And to PointOne (which is better than PointLess) " if you enter too early and see the market continue when...
