    Problem with Very Low Computer System Resources

    I too had the same problem consistantly with my Dell (950 mhz 256k ram) and it really annoyed me. I never figured anything out as I am anything but a tech expert. I now use an AMD based PC with a 650 mhz processor and 256k and have yet to have a low resources issue. It is surprising...

    Realtick + Hotkeys

    After you click on the price on the level 2 screen, click in the price box itself (to make it active) then your arrow keys on the keyboard will toggle the price up/down by predetermned amounts which you set in the order entry set up.

    daytradingcoach.com / training

    Where are you located geographically? Are you more interested in someone close to where you are or does that not matter. I ask because I know of other "coaches" though most are on the west coast.

    Realtick + Hotkeys

    Leland, I stand corrected. Againl I do not trade listed but I had no idea that ARCA had evolved into such a seeminly powerful tool for trading listed stocks. Question for you. I realize they wer hyping their own thing on the link you provided, but it sure sounds like using their liquidity...

    Realtick + Hotkeys

    Sure, it may appear that you are "preferencing" them based on the fact that the NYSE MMID appears in the preference box of the order entry screen.....but again I am questioning whether or not the possibility even exists! First lets clarify that you definitely cannot preference an exchange in...

    Any traders in Orlando?

    I know a prop firm in Orlando that may be interested in your business and their software platform blows away TradeCast IMO. Actually, it is comparable to Watcher so I am talking from an execution point of view. If you are interested, email me and I will tell you the name of the company as I do...

    Simple Strategy

    TradeWinds, Thanks for the charts but now I remain the sole idiot who is still trying to interpret your posts. On both of your charts, I am pretending I have only the first bar to work with on the 2nd (gap) day. So as the first bar is forming, I have no price history to the left on either...

    Holding onto Profits

    Rtharp, For newer traders-if you are so inclined-you may want to elaborate on your last post as it has great implications but may not make sense to some....and I certainly don't want to put words in your mouth.

    cash account

    This single issue remains one of the most unresolved but critical issues relating to the whole 25k rule. I have been told by several DAT brokers and SEC gurus alike that it is the clear intent and requirement by the SEC to enforce T3 settling for all cash account trades, and that DAT brokers...

    What if? A second attack

    If, God forbid, a single nuclear device were ever detonated on US soil, we would not retaliate with nuclear devices. If a full scale nuclear assult was launched on us by Russia or China, that is a different story but that would truly constitute the end of the world as we know it. In the more...

    Simple Strategy

    TradeWinds, Would you mind a little more elaboration on the "price history to the left" concept? Specifically, what would constitute a gap with price history vs. a gap without price history. Are you saying that a stock that chopped around at $25 a share for the last two hours of a trading...

    Choppy markets today - getting whipsawed to death ... :-(

    Its all a matter of time frames. Any time a stock gaps up more than 5% I am looking to fade/short it, though I usually take my profits within 90 seconds or so....it is a fast trade and if the gap is going to continue, the last thing I want is to be short. Nonetheless there is more often than...

    today's nasdaq high

    That's hilarious! Reminds me of one time when I saw a 1000 share print on the time and sales for Yahoo go by at $27.........only Yahoo was trading at the time at $227! Boy would have loved to have been one the buy side of that trade! I too wondered what the hell happened on that spike in the...

    Choppy markets today - getting whipsawed to death ... :-(

    Sniper I was to be short GILD as well at the open just as a fade of the gap..... but could not log onto RT until after 10:30 est due to the problems. What a nice set-up. Meanwhile, I have been wondering, what is the deal with Tony's scans in RT? I see them but I don't seen to be able to...

    Execution Fills for 1 share lots vs 100 share lots?

    Punter-Your question is two-fold. Relating to liquidity, there will be no discernable difference in being able to get filled at the same price for 1 share vs 100. As someone said though, routing choices will be limited to those that accept odd lots (primarily ISLD and SOES) however you...

    RealTick Scans

    I Don't think that is possible with realtick. If you don't mind, where did you get a .slf file with 400 symbols in it....did you create it by hand?

    $1/$.50 bulls or bears

    I saw this screen too and also thought it was too good to be true as well. I never actually traded it, but I back tested it to see what the risk reward would have been. IN other words, when I first saw that screen on Bigeasy, it dawned on me that sure I could buy a stock at the open and put a...

    broker for real tick

    Anyone know what the difference is between this MasterTrader.com and Pristine's original Executioner? Both are Pristine affiliated RealTick brokers it seems?! I came across this training site called www.tradecourse.com that had what appeared to be a pretty good online Direct Access/Level 2...
