Little off topic, but how can I connect three monitors at once? Do you need dual/triple head graphics card or just add extra cards and connect each monitor to them (including the one on MB).

+1 I too use ninja for regular chart with few custom indicators. I use IB chart for quick view (after hr, 18 candle) or options chart.

Here you go. Just tweak it for your watch-list. Make following changes as per your primary monitor width and secondary monitor size. (OffsetX will go zero if your chart target screen is a primary monitor). WidthX := 1920 / 4 HeightY := (1080 + 20) / 2 OffsetX := 1280 OffsetY := 0...

Q: Which platform? Ninja, but can be easily ported for any program. Q: Are these the command codes to open new chart windows in ninja? Exactly! The whole process will be automated (u just watch and script will do the job magically). Q: What's wrong with default save workspace and...

Why no one is talking AIG?

This is a very handy AHK (AutoHotKey) script for creating charts. This is better than Window's default "Tile Windows" functionality because it overlaps those charts to make maximum use of screen real-estate. Hope you all like it. Just install AHK from http://www.autohotkey.com/ ; and save...

I was always getting "invalid login/password"... But it works smoothly after I upgraded it to the latest version (v1.1) ;-) Quotes, Charts, Scanners & Alerts are added in this version. Now it looks lot better and complete... Good work IB :-) Quick question - is there a separate commission...

Yeah, only these two cases so far in year 2009. I wasn't actively trading before. But this happens more frequently outside regular hours. I get some fills that are few cents off from [bid-ask] range. It may have something to do with ECN and order routing. Questions for OP. * Was that...

I got bad-fill once with my stop-price 3 cents below LoD (low of day). I called my broker (Sogo) immediately but they hung-up on me without any explanation. Also wrote email with screen-shot but never got any follow-up. Folks at ET suggested that it was probably due to my odd lot size (40 shares...

Draw bunch of lines here and there. Few of them are bound to come correct. Isn't it all about technical analysis? Market is ignoring all those divergences for a long time and shorts are being killed everyday.

And worst all is that they don't make anything other than boom-n-bust. Nothing productive, pure manipulation... I failed to understand that what value these speculators add to the real industries? Exchange is scam, fed is scam, they exist only to rob honest and hard-working people.

+1. Are you expecting 1000% annual return on your proposed micro account? If not then it won't be worth spending your time on day-trading with tiny balance. The most likely outcome of trading with a tiny account is riskier bets on craps like FAZ which will total your account in no time...

Yeah, this is exactly what media do. They cover-up their actions with nice and logical explanation. Damn manipulators... Good earning, run-up ; no-brainer... Good earning, run-down; it was already priced in...

Nice thread guys. It will be great help for CL newbie if you can also post a chart with the logic behind your entry, stop and exit. I know that it is not possible during market hours but please try to do it in after hours. STOP is your best hedge my friend. U need no hedge if unless your...

Also we are not talking about SPX option. It is a plain equity option on SPY. Mark was surely in hurry or had some prejudice :-) My 2 cents to OP, please buy some decent book on options and read it before doing any more trade on options. This was probably not the best bet if you are...

People are surely missing some action in this thread, but low risk and consistent winner is better. Good work, keep it up :-) Slow and steady wins the race :-) Good luck Bob ;-)

It's for Uncle Sam not IB.

I see; the buyer could be short on banks and wanted to save his back if market runs up against him. Probably a nervous but careful BEAR and news is not bullish. Thanks :-)

Ref: http://www.cnbc.com/id/33289282/site/14081545 The ETF saw some huge positioning in the November 16 calls, where more than 162,000 contracts traded in a strong buying pattern for $0.42 to $0.52, according to OptionMonster's proprietary tracking systems. That was roughly six times the open...

Any one with mathematical mind wouldn't hold them overnight. The daily tracking is ultimate sucker for overnight holders. If you can't daytrade; please stay away. If you can, then make sure to return it to issuer by market close. Mathematically anyone shorting both side of 3X Etfs are always...
