    What Kinda Chair Do You Trade From - and The Importance of Good Seating

    The Herman Miller Aeron is what I've been using for the last 6 years. You don't sweat in it and its not so comfortable that you fall asleep in it. All the bank trading floors use it. http://www.hermanmiller.com/CDA/product/0,1469,c201-pss1-p8,00.html For the connoisseur, there is a...

    Q-Charts data today?

    Tick charts - the future standard. With 24 hour trading and increased trading by non-US traders - charting increments based on number of ticks rather than increment of time will be what day traders migrate to IMHO.

    Q-Charts data today?

    They did the same thing on MLK holiday - putting half day globex session on the holiday as a part of the regular charts. I sent them an email to move it "all sessions" so it doesn't appear on the regular charts as it screws up the chart. I'm thinking that they may have made a policy...

    Best City for a Starting Daytrader....

    Plus Florida has some kind of homestead law where if you go completely bust and someone is suing you they can't take your home - even if its a million + home. You can still be evicted if you don't make your house payment so its best if you own the house free and clear. Thats why O.J. and the...

    Best City for a Starting Daytrader....

    The NY area, Chicago area and LA area probably have the most day-trading infrastructure. But, in the internet age you can get information from anywhere. Florida is probably traders paradise - its on EST so you don't have to get up so early. It has no state income tax. Weather is...

    Q-Charts data today?

    I know, they put in all kinds of wacky stuff and leave out the basic stuff most traders would use. I like the Keltner Channels and being able to pick a server from a pop up menu (ctrl-alt-N). If Esignal had scrollable intraday data going back more than a couple of months I would probably...

    Fruity tutti - why don't you go to Neil's place and post there instead? http://www.commodityville.com/cgi-bin/webbbs_config.pl They don't censor anything. You will find many like minded souls. That way you can leave us alone here.

    emini tick change???

    The days of making easy money off other people's slippage are coming to an end. Its time to learn to trade directionally - either that or go back to tending bar. :( A smaller tick means more business is shifted to the electronic market. The CME makes much more money on electronic...

    I see my credit cards as being:

    Good point Omcate - if you are going to do this - do it with a card that you have a zero balance on. If you do it on a card with a balance - any payments will be used to pay off the lower interest loan while your higher interest rate nomal balance will be paid off last.

    I see my credit cards as being:

    I've tried it just to see if it worked. Paid it back the next month. The best way to do it is to tell them to stop sending those checks in your statement which someone could steal. Then call up your credit card company and tell them you want the 1 or 2% interest cash advance/loan without...

    Market Maker Collusion

    In the 1980's the Nasdaq market makers used to call up other market makers who were cutting into the wide spread and yell on the telephone "moo goo gai pan". This meant quit narrowing the spread. This was actually recorded by the SEC and was part of the billion dollar settlement. The real...
