Although gnome is probably right about many markets going 24 hours you will have noticed with the currency markets that the "openness" varies. The majority of tradable movement in a market takes place while its nationals /national institutions are active. That effect may actually stop the...

Interestingly Trade2Win have started cleaning up their repeat posters ... and banning them for life. But the 7 faces of T28 (or is it 28) continue to be displayed across ET.

You need to find an alternative data provider then. The Sierra Chart data providers page includes some that provide tick data for hkfe.

Thanks taodr, forced to upgrade to 868 to find the "off" option but worth it. :) Back to Jim's purpose in starting the thread:

That statement about Elder not knowing may be valid but its not the only reason for sticking to multiple timeframe charts. Also your stop setting will depend how you use your charts. I have a long timeframe (which normally only shows up as a couple of grey mas on my other two timeframes)...

You seem to be confusing one stuffed up day with the general advice. The US servers really seem to be getting a hammering at present (whereas asia and I think europe have been fine). Hopefully cscott will finally leave IB and with the reduced load all the US server problems will go away. The...

Working fine in asia. Are u sure its IB and not your ISP (tws is fussier about connection quality than a browser is).

LOL. Just in case the wanker hasn't done it yet ... CScott, you are nothing but a wanking scum. Certainly not a trader. Anyone who doubts Scott's pedigree just check out the first few pages of his posts. Scotty ... ur just a lowly wanker (can't get a f'k --- u'r way too ugly :p)

I have a similar view Will. I include mandatory breaks of varying durations after particular events. For me, staying in the right zone is the key to my performance and shaking myself up when I (might) slip into the wrong one is assisted by breaks.

It depends what you are doing. If most of what you are doing is on the centre monitor and then you look up to do trade entry with two outside monitors for rarely examined material etc. In this case 1 up, 2 to the sides. Where are you eyes going to be going?

The original data isn't tick by tick its in 1/5th second samples. I believe that the smallest sample size for backfill data is 5 second (OHLCVT)

Who amongst the big winners (or even moderate) in the P&L 2007 thread trades your method Jack. I don't actually have a problem with what you've said but given the magnitude of the claims you'd think that someone would be able to demonstrate that they're real. Fourth attempt.

You could walk out your new front door and the boy next door might shoot you. :eek:

I was thinking just that windwalker ... and then you gave me a nice laugh. Much appreciated.

Not that i trade US markets but my take:

Come on now ... if you're going to launch a thread attacking IB can you at least get your spelling right? Its "Dumping IB and switching to ..." OK. So, what's wrong with Sierra Chart and Bracket Trader or Ensign and Button Trader? But seriously, go to Scott, one less person with IB...

Why do some here have a fascination with: - getting the most from the market - less than optimal - 3x the daily range That may or may not work for an individual but its not a necessary basis for good trading. Any newbie reading this thread should take this on board - if you wait for the...
