There is no question as to who provides the best rate/technology for scalpers. It would be a combination (of which there are several) of a DAT broker offering a penny (or less) per share commission structure using a platform like the Watcher or one of several platforms designed in similar...

Let's be careful we are sure which one we are talking about don't you think? The one that Babak and Rthrap are flaming is chartpattern.com and the founder of that site indeed had an entire thread devoted to his seemingly unbelievable returns generated during the bubble and subsequent ralative...

Am I missing something or did one of you seriously contradict the other here??

I am still trying to figure out if Nic was joking as a play off of the "Im a coach thread" or if he is serious??!! Nic??

Eldredge, I am not sure exactly what you are trying to do, however I think this would work. Record a macro that simply selects the region where you have the NOW function used, and then use paste special/values to place the times as values in the cells where you want it to not update. THen...

That was truly a funny post ..... I was talking about the one when you were "whining" because the guy wanted to visit RTHARP's office and you wanted in in the action. Personally I'd rather come to Vegas over Pheonix!

The one where Limitdown responded with his "shameless self promotion" comment? It seems to have vanished. :)

I love the internet. It may not make any $$ for ecommerce businesses but it sure is efficient for finding stuff. I have developed an excel spreadsheet that helps me track my pre-set alerts more effeciently. After becoming frustrated over the www.ird.com situation, I typed in "excel and stock...

One thing different (and potentially better depending on circumstances) is how INCA treats your marketable but UNFILLED order once a match eventually comes in. Using your example, let's assume you were buying 1000 shares but that you missed the shares at 30.06 and 30.07 and only got 500 at...

I am still waiting on my password as well.

I have been messing with this for days. Just switched to WIN2000 and my ATI Rage video cards will not function as secondary monitors (ie multi monitor set up) under 2000 so essentially worthless. I went and bought another brand at OfficeMax-explained the problem to the rep-and discovered the...

I will tell you that yes, the Arca NOW order is "now" essentially worthless. You were correct in your conclusions as the NOW order was designed to enable the first three parts of the Arca algorythm to occur without the fourth. Prior to SuperSOES, the fourth part involved ARCA Snet preferencing...

You will have to share with me (privately of course) your AMAT scalp system so I can try it :)

THey appear to now be just another VTS based DAT broker...albeit with pretty good per ticket commish schedule. So I guess the pattern daytrader avoidance deal did not fly with the regulators. BTW whats up with the .007 per share charge for SNETing TNTO??!! TNTO was the MMID for TerraNova...

Turok, It definitely is TAL data, and more specifically, there is an FAQ on using the Excel interface right on the IRD site. I am signed up for the free trial and will compare it to my current RT feed and let you know how it goes.

Personally I have always been confused by Def's point regarding potential "horrible" fills with a stop market and perhaps a stop limit is better. Isn't the primary point that our stop has been hit and the trade is no longer valid? And if so than our objective- our obligation as disciplined...

I think everyone agrees that using ISLD to trade the Q's is most advantageous....recently Island traded more shares of the Q's than AMEX did one day! Having said that, there is no slippage when you trade with ISLD since you always have a limit order. You either get it filled or you don't...

My definition includes liquidity. Yes the municipality will allow 14-20% "interest" (its really a late payment penalty) to accrue on the late taxes owed, but you still have to get someone to pay it in order to receive it, or else force a forclosure...neither of which will happen overnight nor...

Until I did :) I use RealTick and Excel together as well. Remember that thread on "Cheap" Realtick? It was www.ird.com. Well I was thinking that if it is powered by TAL data, it may have the same excel interface built in. Sure enough it does. So it appears you can do the same stuff with...
