    Time and Sales - Tape Reading..

    toby, hard to judge from very brief "black box-like" description, but on a first glance looks interesting. About two years ago we made an attempt to design real time scanner that would read the tape in certain sense of the word. It catches events like capitulation and euphoria pretty...

    Time and Sales - Tape Reading..

    I don't believe true tape reading is done by staring at T&S. There is much more to this method than simple buy/sell ratio. I don't also believe you can trade off that ratio in such small time frame T&S provides, or you would be buying and selling every few seconds on active stock. Real tape...

    Breaking Trades ?

    An erroneous complaint must be transmitted via facsimile to Nasdaq Market Operations within certain time periods, depending on when the alleged erroneous trade was executed. Specifically, transactions executed between 9:30 a.m. and 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time (ET), must be received by 10:30 a.m...

    What is tape reading?

    I am a stock guy... Principles are the same for any market but there are different mechanics I am not familiar with, so I prefer to remain within what I know.

    Super Montage..

    I don't think any direct access broker but Castle was offering this at the time, and they were cut off by NITE in a few months. I got to use it and it was really money from heaven on arbitrage... while it lasted. As far as I know several online brokers had this but this feature wasn't as easy...

    just starting, need advice.

    IMO, since SuperSOES implementation smart routing systems lost their significance (not that they were real good anyway). It's just "hit ECN or SS market maker" now, rules became simple like shovel. If you don't want to chose between them for yourself, active ECN (REDI or ARCA) will do all the...

    just starting, need advice.

    True. I assumed automatically (and possibly erroneously) that vlad meant limit order not crossing the current price. I stand corrected. Vad edit: actually, that's what I meant when said that there are cases of price improvement on limit order: this case you mentioned, case with hidden...

    just starting, need advice.

    Here is how it works. Your limit order is going to get filled if market trades through your price (goes against your order). You can't get price improvement because sending your limit order you in fact said: "I want my order to get filled at this price". There are cases of price improvement...

    well Katrina... my strong opinion is, performance tracks will take you into way darker place :) Vad

    Stock Pick Site:

    I am not kidding. And I don't consider my agruments weak - in fact I consider your suggestion that performance track is perfect tool for this to be very weak. After all the bogus tracks posted and widely exposed, can't even see how it's still unclear. As to trial length... I don't understand...

    Stock Pick Site:

    see Katrina... you pick performance record as method of seeing what we worth as a service... and we picked free trial as such method. Simple as that. You are entitled to your opinion same way as we are entitled to ours. We tried different methods and eventually picked our current. You don't like...

    Here is freshest example of why we don't keep record in traditional way. Sorry, can't resist to demonstrate it on live fresh trade: [11:17] (Threei) DBI Setup: OVER 29.80 trigger, 30 is stop [11:27] (Threei) Attention: OVER cover half Several members said no fill. Next remark...

    Well, from our point of view 1 week is quite enough to see if we know what we are doling. Performace track posted on the site is not a good way to tell real deal from snake oil. If you don't believe it, try and look closer at sites with best results posted. I never said anything about...

    <b>If you have no trade performance posted of any kind then how does one evaluate the efficacy of your services?</b> By free trial? Where one can see for himself instead of relying on numbers that can be forged easily? And even if they are honest they don't always allow to see if plays...

    I actually agree with this. The reason I think trader of Livermore scale would be using charts is, it seems not possible to focus that intensively on many stocks. Trader in the pit using this method isn't likely to LOOK for familiar situation aming many stocks, he monitors very limited amount of...
