    Tradestation ES data

    I just filled out CQG's information request. That's prohibitive for me at the current time, I was hoping their non-institutional "net" product would be priced accordingly.. Qcharts feed is supposed to have issues too, and I've seen an Esignal thread about bad ES data as well. TS's backtesting...

    Tradestation ES data

    At some point you have to cut the line... I think I'm bailing if the feed isn't fixed in three weeks. I've never seen it as bad as this morning. It's odd that they would put so much effort into their platform, and turn it into a lemon with a bad feed on what are probably their most common...

    Tradestation ES data

    I wish I knew the details of how it's done, aparently somehow through some vb. I never took the fellow up on a full explanation, but pm me if you want me to see if he's willing to elaborate for us. English is his second language.

    yep, i was on the csfb FI floor, it would be perfect for him. i thought i'd be better on my own, so i left that factory behind.

    Tradestation ES data

    yeh, i popped off a complaint on the support forum like so many others. i hope they get up to speed ASAP... the lag is pushing it for $200/month someone has recommended a way for me to feed TWS data into 2000i (running TS7 right now), and I'm seriously considering it. This lag is...

    Tradestation ES data

    Is anyone else seeing extreme lags in Tradestation ES data compared to IB this morning? I have observed this lag sporadically, and about one day in 10, it's really serious. This morning, my ES quotes are 1-4 seconds late in TS, and sometimes not even printing levels that I see in IB at all...

    Can a Graduate Degree from Oxford U help me get a salaried position in trading?

    i don't envy you dude, a graduate program in math at oxford is a hell of a long string of all-nighters, hard work, huge exams and vicious competition, especially for something that isn't directly focused on what you want to do with your life. granted, the brand name will go far in the corporate...

    Can a Graduate Degree from Oxford U help me get a salaried position in trading?

    if you encourage this much animosity everywhere you go, i feel really sorry for you. and don't give us this BS about only responding in defense, if you really wanted constructive advice you'd know not to lash out at anyone for any reason on your thread. that's not kissing ass, it just decency...

    if you truly believe what you said, then i can say with validity that you are pathalogically unaware of your true motivations. ...and this is death to a trader.

    it's increasingly looking like you came here to brag and convince yourself of something. nothing humble about that. typical.

    Can a Graduate Degree from Oxford U help me get a salaried position in trading?

    IMHO this is indeed a professional communication venue (with a few uber-negative wannabes with issues tossed in) Your level of research regarding this board, and trading in general is inconsistent with Oxford caliber work. This board is teaming with hugely successful professional traders...

    Spread Trading

    Riskreward, I'm not sure if this is what you're interested in, but the text I was referring to is "Contemporary Investments, Security and Portfolio Analysis" by Douglas Heath and Janis K. Zaima. There are only about 10 pages or so regarding spreads but I was surprised at the attention they...

    Bill Williams...Trading Chaos??

    gms agree totally. i'm an artist too, i just step between my music cockpit and my trading cockpit 24/7 it seems. there's nothing more annoying than pretentious artspeak.......when artists try to legitimize their droppings (however ingenius) via esoteric nearly meaningless language. but...

    Spread Trading

    you guys got me interested in learning more about spread trading as well. revisiting what my finance text from college had to say about futures, it was almost all focused on spreads. last night i took a look at ESH03, and charted it's spread to ESM03 in TS just to see what it looks like, and...

    Bill Williams...Trading Chaos??

    I've never read it but I'm interested in chaos theory and the application of fractals to the market. I'm reading the 28 page sample on Amazon right now, and all I can say is why does an author with a PHD have to use a term like "profitunity" to describe his analysis? Why the hell are so many...

    SEYKOTA's method?

    I still stand by taxes as his probable best reason.... after all, the man lives in Nevada. The tax advantage in futures is huge. At his scale, the difference probably pays his salary..
