I understand what you are saying. The $10 could/would be a very small percentage of what you are trying to capture. That doesn't change that if you were trading 10 lots or more, a missed tick becomes $100. You miss a tick on a ten lot every other trading day, and that is $1000 a month...

I can see what you are saying. Lagged quotes can/could be a huge problem. Whether one is "trading for ticks" or not, missing the best execution, effects anyones profits. I personally would not tolerate either of the data provider problems that we have discussed. I guess I assumed...

I would have to strongly disagree. If would be FURIOUS if my quotes were only getting update every tenth of a second. A professional would notice and care very quickly.

What kind of job are you looking for? Where are you? Lots of people with experience are out on the street, but it can still be done.

I created a corp. My tax guy said there is a 1.5% savings on your tax rate or so as a full time futures trader. Don't ask me how or where, I just know what he says.

I don't trade stocks, but I do trade before the stock market open.

Anyone around here using it? Someone on the board recommended it to me. I'm looking to download minute data, to create a data base. Doesn't have to be real time. Could be end of day. Around 600 stocks and 10 futures. Anyone doing something like that or have any recommendations how? I...

I think the wizetrade guy left but if not, I have one very simple question. If the software works so well, why do you personally waste time trying to defend/sell it?

I talked to CQG and they weren't able to help. Anyone else have any ideas? I'm really just trying to build a longer term database of about 600 stocks and ~10 futures. Doesn't need to be collected real time, minute data.

I don't think you are. The clearing firm needs to be a member to "facilitate" your trades. A firm being a clearing member, is very different from a trader/trading firm being a member. Two completely different types of membership.

He looked through long enough for the detective to see that he had blue eyes. You can be the judge if that is to long or not.

Your forgetting the part about The Senator looking through the crack. That is certainly invading someones privacy. If some guy stopped to look at me through the crack I would be certainly hope that he would get arrested. Oh yeah. ~40 other people were arrested in the "sting." That...

One comment and one question. "twelve people who started with as little as $1,000 and turned those modest stakes into a six- to seven-digit fortunes." 6 figures doesn't make a fortune. Second, What makes your book so different for the dozens of other books that interviews "top" (I...

TT has a good Auto spreader and a good auto trader. If you can write the formula's in excel, that is all you would need.

Does anyone get their data from CQG's API? That have an excel sheet that does a pretty good job. I really want to start collecting minute data for ~500 stocks and ~10 futures. I have access to the data, but no great way to get it out. Anyone know of a program that I could run end of...

Short term events in my opinion are easier to predict. but, Nobody hitting 90% is under capitalized. Also there shouldn't be ANY under capitalized experienced traders. If you are under capitalized than while you might have a lot of experience, it couldn't have been very good. Alieodon...

NOt really sure what you are asking. how to enter a trade from excel, or how to get excel to create an event when set conditions are met. P.S. If you get it working, drop me a line telling me what you think of the reliability and functionality. Thanks

None. First I would recommend that you try to trade as many as you can for diversification. Second I would make sure that returns on the 5 pairs I choose to trade are not correlated. This too would improve diversification. That is the biggest. After that I might look into...

I had no problem getting a TT rep to come to my office and demo the Xstudy. Looked fine. I don't do much charting though. It only costs the price you quoted if you go with the pro. Much less for the regular.

Who is selling it at IPO? Whomever owned it before. They aren't profiting from the shares going up like you are. They are losing profit. You can take any trade and look at it at any time in the future, and see how much better or worse off you are because you did that trade. The other...
