>C Everything adds up C. Does it work for you?

Newbie started paper trading the ES mini and I found it quite easy the first two days day 1 approx 400 bucks gain day 2 approx 300 bucks gain But I found yesterday morning trading difficult 270608. Choppy and mostly ranging. (I'm only trading Chicago morning because of my location). I...

Thank Q! Nice thread BTW, I've tried stocks but annoying volatile and I got tired of chasing stocks .......... Now, I'm really getting hooked on futures. Don't know why people still trade stocks as there is a lot of work just to make some money.

Can you short the Nikkei 225 mini? I know for HK stocks you can't for retail traders (don't know about HK futures). What about SGX, any restrictions there too? I'm with IB BTW.

>sellingrich Thank you. That did the trick!

I'm still getting the hang of SierraCharts. Does anyone know if you can open multiple versions of SierraCharts from a single computer so that you can have different chart setups looking from different monitors? Trying it myself you can't, I just want to know if there is a workaround. I...

Any computer generated women sound is better from past (and present) wives. One notable difference. The shut down option. Back to topic. Some article I'm reading about (which is 6 years old material) talks about the squawkbox. It's not concerned about the specific chatter of the pits...

That's useful. Good job Bogan.

The prices are quite steep to listen to just audio from the pit! Does it really help? I have exciting notions of actually placing trades whilst hearing loud roars of traders. But of course whether it works in practice is another matter. Are there any other places that provide this...

What can I say to make it credible. It's a serious question from a beginner. Please don't shoot it down and give it a chance. I realize you have over 2000 posts under your belt old man but let the newbie have his day.

Anyone here using traders audio s&p 500 squawkbox to help them trade futures? Any success using this method?

Amazing, I got an answer to my question from yahoo answers

boo hoo, just can't stop. The tears ... Thinking about Japan as can short too. Nothing wrong with using US brokerage to trade foreign as IB commission is great. >T > mmm

^ sorry jay, my comments for the 2 posts before you.

Huh, did I go to evil weird forum? Will someone help out or do I have to cry.

Thank you for your reply. Sure, I've searched and find lots of info about PDT. What the info doesn't say is if I can day trade from non-US location to trade non-US stocks and being restricted by the 'PDT' rule. The reason for the confusion is that I deposited my funds into an IB account...

I want to ask someone with experience with Interactive Brokers and US stock trading regulations. To open an account with with IB and daytrade, I would need a min of USD25K and you will be considered a pattern trader if you trade more than 4 or 5 times a week. And IB is a US broker so my funds...

Can anyone tell me what I should look for when I want to find a market to actively stock trade in? I'm in HK but the market has bottomed I think and since HK follows US there isn't much activity around to do business. What I like to do is trade other asian markets.

Hey guys, I have many questions, I hope someone can help. I'm trying to get streaming real time data to Amibroker. I learnt I can get a DDE link from Esignal and plug the feed in through the dedicated Esignal plug-in. The CS from esignal told me $85 pm for this feed. Does anyone have...
