rs7 damned if you do, and damned if you don't - screw the masses and do whatever you want - do you really give a shit about opinions of people you don't even know? stay here if it makes you happy, and leave if it sucks - it's as simple as that. 90% of the posts on this site are...

Were you filled short on TXN? since it opened lower from the previous close, how can you get filled short?

you can't do that - you can run multiple monitors off 1 PC, but not multiple computers running 1 esignal feed - router or no router. Hope that helps

I'd be happier if esignal quotes kept up with IB. not sure why IB is consistently faster by at least 1/2 - 2 sec - which make esignal not execution quality, at least for me. maybe back to realtick - was hoping this would be better

fwiw - i just closed my realtick account - trading through ARCA is ridiculous at best, the high fees and slow executions hardly make it worth it. Trade with IB - their smart orders can't be beat, and since their recent network upgrade, it has been flawless. (knocking on wood) I now use...

Seanote - i'm not following you on MSFT at 15:25 - but was wondering why the stock dropped a point right at the close?

thx def

I'm not recommending it (since I've never taken the course) but testing chart patterns and the like is the specialty of Chris Manning www.manningtrading.com I went to his free 2 1/2 hour seminar - it was OK, but thought the cost of his 3 day was a bit high.

I see IB now has a "sweep" option - has anyone tried it? Also, they have "iceberg" orders (aka reserve orders) Just curious what the difference between a sweep order and a standard "smart" order is on IB.

rumors of accounting problems at AOL - fwiw

nice trade on msft - i missed a fill on that at 51.50 - oh well - didn't want to chase (i guess i should have!)

Seanote - do you use bullets for the short NYSE trades?

gordon - if you want to make a trade, and can't because datek goes on coffee break, it might actually cost you more than the free bill pay service or money transfer vs. the cost of a stamp and a more reliable broker. just my 34 cents

another nice day Seanote - wtg

what a crazy opening in the semis

IB (when it is working) is lightning fast - it occasionally slows down - or just plain stops - but hasn't happened lately. It is strictly an execution platform, with quotes, and nothing more than that. For charts, level 2, etc., I suggest realtick , esignal, or whatever you like.

.13 from me - i'm feeling lucky

Realtick is not fast for execution - IB is much faster there it is great for charting though, and if you want something like trailing stops, its good for that - but like ThugLife said, the ticket charge will suck you dry

KLAC below 44.50 - briefly

nice trade - are you following the 20 MA on a 1 min chart as support, and you sold the mini double top at 46?
