    Day Trading an IRA with IB

    WWW.ECBOT.COM You might want to read up on how YM contract works and how much it's worth per contract. Since IRA account will not let you borrow money/margin, I don't think your $50,000 will even get you a single contract. Good luck :)

    Looking at a CRT vs. LCD for long period of time.

    I use LCDs at work and CRTs at home. I have no problems with either one. The thing about CRTs is that you need a high quality tube properly caliberated with color correction software and using the highest refresh rate it could support, 85hz is the minimum. Anything lower than that and you'll...

    Widescreen LCD's vs Regular LCD's

    Um..Electric, when they say 24s and 30s, those are actual monitors and not the TVs . Those actually have gazillion pixels. But you're right though, TVs don't work for trading :D

    intraday indicators

    I'm with Volente, MACD works best for me when it's ranging. Defined trend? Well why would you need an indicator to tell you it's trending, when you already know it's trending? :D

    intraday indicators

    Last time he posted he had gotten himself a nice business proposition and it was the reason that he had to pull the charts and end the journal. He's a good man, I learned how to use MACD in real time through his journal.

    TA software for multi monitors

    Hi Jay, have you tried QuoteTracker? I often do the same thing as you do and QT does that effortlessly. The best part is it's free or $6 / month if you don't want to see the ads. Happy trading :)

    Anyone using Samsung 214T or 204B

    As long as you have the space on your desk, get 24" CRTs like I did and have the best of both worlds :D Happy trading. PS: On second thought, make sure the desk is sturdy enough, them suckers weigh almost 100lbs each :eek:

    lilduckling's journal of YM

    Hey LD, sorry to hear about your losses. I was just starting to enjoy the journal :( . At the very least you gave it a go at it, hopefully I'll be able to start mine as soon as I'm done with my taxes for 2005. But for what it's worth you seemed to do well on trending days and even picked...

    Can stop orders be seen?

    Hey, I prefer the alert based stop orders that reside on your platform on your computer such as QuoteTracker, CyberTrader etc. This way if it does trigger, you may not be the first in line, but they'll never see your order sitting either. But that being said, just because it's not on the...

    Widescreen LCD's vs Regular LCD's

    Hi, my 24" wide screen replaced my 21" and 19" CRTs and I'm loving it :D Now I could easily see all the info on one convient monitor rather than spanned across two different monitors. I'd take the two 24" over three 19" anyday, but that's my opinion of course. But if you compare let's...

    Quotetracker request

    Hi Jerry, I'm planning to use BookTrader from TWS along side QTs order entry window. Do you think the current/executed/pending orders would still show up on QTs transaction/orders log as well? Also, are there any reasons I shouldn't be doing it? Thanks in advance :)
