    watcher software

    shneed, I traded with WatcherPlus till a few months ago - I am now using Mach II, an in-house Watcher clone developed for Broadway Trading. WatcherPlus is an ideal tool for the Nasdaq scalper with its lightning fast executions. As with all s/w, there is a learning curve. It's strictly hotkey...

    Who earns the most?

    During yesterday's Senate budget committee meeting, Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill and West Virginia Senator Robert Byrd fought over who grew up poorer: O'Neill: I started my life in a house without water or electricity so I don't cede the high moral ground to you of knowing what life was...

    G'day tuna, how are the sheilas in Mooloolaba, mate? Re-routing by ECN's and being charged for it (order flow :() is outrageous and subject to abuse. Maybe SuperMontage is not such a bad thing after all.

    Back Testing....."Paradoxically" Speaking

    Barbarian, I am fully aware that you were referring to the length of his last post. You must be extremely frustrated reading EliteTrader posts in general if you yearn for simplicity and economy of words. BTW, this is your first post before 12 midnight (EST USA) - are you from Europe? Is this...

    Back Testing....."Paradoxically" Speaking

    ...yet your loquaciousness is unnecessary. Rogue Trader's profile reveals that he registered for membership on September 7, 2001, yet posted for the first time 4 months later on January 7, 2002, and till now (after almost 5 months) has a grand total of 6 posts to his credit. So, Barbarian...

    Why Optimization Won't Kill My System and Will It Work In The Future?

    The series you plugged in was indeed random, but consisted of numbers from 0 to 1, which for this zero-based comparison is one bloody good system. Try plugging in random numbers between -1 and 1 (or -x and +x), and you should get a result somewhat closer to 50%. Disclaimer : I have not tested...

    NexTrend Hints and Tips

    Neil, thanks for showing your setup - you're getting very good bang for your buck (or quid). I notice you don't subscribe to the CME stock index futures (S&P, Naz) through NexTrend. Do you get them from another source?

    NexTrend Charting Software

    Mike, I trade (intraday) 2 Nasdaq stocks only, using S&P and Naz futures, level II and time and sales (top down approach). This lack of formality has me somewhat worried since I am trying to work on my discipline (as per Douglas) - hence my recent interest in TA-land. Does it worry you that you...

    NexTrend Charting Software

    Thanks, I appreciate your effort in looking up Wilder's book. My interest in DMI was purely academic - in fact I am embarassed to say that my usage of NexTrend is an example of underutilization par excellence - 5 candlestick charts (my 3 stocks, S&P and Nasdaq futures) with no indicators...

    NexTrend Charting Software

    In David Nassar's article about Wilder's DMI, reference is made to signals based on PDI, MDI and ADX in RealTick. In NexTrend, I can only find ADX and ADXR, with an inadequate explanation in the online help - how do I use these?
