I'd be worried that the computer crashed and never sent the stop.

I'm thinking of using Ninja Trader for Bracket Orders. I use these for position trades that usually execute while I sleep. If I enter a strategy on the DOM with a stop loss and profit target, what happens if I go to sleep and turn off the computer. When I log off I have the limit order (lets...

NQ also now

Certainly possible though we didn't really start selling off viciously on the ES until Europe opened. So, if we don't sell off then, then I'll maybe believe the "conspiracy theory" I'd figure it more likely that they'd push things down as much as possible into an emergency Fed cut at 8:30...

What am I missing? Yesterday and today Asian stocks were hammered and most likely so will European stocks in a few hours. Some of the Asian indices are down double digits for the two days. This morning the ES sold off to 1256 and the ER2, YM and NQ were equally weak. Since then, the Asian...

Wow, this thread is making me glad I'm not married! Hell, I'm glad I'm not dating. Seriously though....how correlated is your guy's trading with being single vs dating/married? I find that when I'm in a relationship or dating, I trade like a jackass. All the emotional up and down that is...

Nevermind...please close thread. Figured it out.

I am having trouble viewing Nikkei Mini charts on Ensign through Interactive Brokers feed. Can anyone who trades the Nikkei let me know what symbol they use to bring up the charts? Thanks!

If its an individual account....no problem...easy. If it's anything else.....LOOK OUT.

Hi, We are a small group of traders who meet up once a month in Santa Monica. We are having our last public meeting before holding them privately. In the past, we've had a lot of beginners show up and would like to transition to a meeting of more experienced traders (basically anyone who...

I have a MacBook...been running IB TWS for about a year on it. No complaints...runs great. Recently started using it on Vista thru Boot Camp...works great too. Can't think of any issues whatsoever.

Great post OT. Everybody is promoting something, it's a pointless criticism. I guess Jim Rogers, Sykes and Surf are all in the same category because they are self-promoters?

??? On what time frame? If you're talking today...nevermind.

Yeah...especially visible today. Beans were down 10, I came back and they were up 5. Piggybacking on Crude.

I thought it was bean oil that was the correlation but I guess it doesn't matter since they are all ultimately related to crude.

When Crude is up a bunch...you're supposed to go up too. Not particularly bullish.

Jesus...I don't even trade BOX and I hate them. Every frickin day I get a IB notification "BOX is unavailable due to tech problems at the exchange" How crap do you have to be to have problems every day for 2 weeks? How can I unsubscribe from BOX? Is there a worse US exchange?

Yeah, you're stuck until after hours. We've all been there. Its a good idea to check the daily volume and trading hours before you open a position. Interactive brokers has a good search on their front page (Help...Contract Search) that allows you to see what the trading hours are. You would...

Umm dude....the YW only trades after hours. Plus its thin as hell. You should really only trade the full contract. zw has 27K in volume currently

+1 Frank just saved you a bunch of time and effort. If you can find a way NOT to fall into the noob trap of looking to have someone else give you a system you'll be a step ahead of the game. Even if you found someone else's system that was profitable you probably wouldn't be able to trade it...
