    Very active night for futures: TOS quotes down

    Execution is still working, just quote feed that died... Shit like this happens with every broker.. nearly every professional trader I know (at my firm and personally) have a 2nd source for quotes for this very reason.

    RealTick - $0.0035/share Cobra Trading Special Offer

    Either getting the default Plesk hosting control panel page, or your main page with "missing plugin" written over most of it... Hate to say this, but if you're a new organization, this 'launch promotion' isn't going well for you at all. :/ Your site has to be perfect... how is anyone...

    The game is mental... it changes when you go to a real account. Even if it's small, $25, $50... it would be better than a demo. Good luck though! Just don't turn into a paper billionare... it sets your expectations way out of whack.

    What is wrong with this way of thinking?

    I highly recommend you go for non-monetary goals. Like simply trying to execute only trades within your plan (and none that violate your trade plan) regardless if they are profitable or not. Consider redoing your money management strategy. It is a CFD.. but it's one which is derived from...

    Why you want to short this market ?

    I never said I was shorting.... and we gotta remember that it takes time for these things to come apart. Just sit back and enjoy the show...

    Why you want to short this market ?

    ....because politicians can't control the market and usually just screw up when they try?

    e/us just took off --- any news?

    Yes, they are a decent broker, and being Canadian (they are based here in Toronto) I get CIPF protection on my account (up to a million insured if they ever go under.)

    e/us just took off --- any news?

    50 pips within a few minutes might not be a huge amount... but it sure startled me. I had a scalp position short that hit my target just before that move.

    e/us just took off --- any news?

    Seriously? Their banks need to raise capital, the news was about capitalization requirements... That means they need to put cash on their balance sheets... guess how they do that? They need to sell some other asset for euros... creating demand on the currency.

    Who Is NOT Short Here?!?

    I am whatever way the wind blows that given day.... I don't hold overnight.

    Who Is NOT Short Here?!?

    Only when viewed by a quoted pair as a symbol... If you view your exposure, you're net short and long in value will be equal (in a common currency value) when you open positions and will shift as the quoted rate changes. How is shifts becomes your profit or loss... Example: Long...

    Just cancelled LiveCharts by eSignal

    Thread title says it all. I've used LiveCharts for the last 3-4 months now as alternative charting tool to the one I use at work. I was hoping for something that had more flexibility and cleaner data feed than my work's software... and getting real time data for non-US markets usually...

    Thinkorswim and eSignal use Javascript syntax with their own interpreter. Metatrader 4 (most common platform in Forex) uses a Javascript-like coding language called MQL4 Metatrader 5 uses a new language based off C#
