You should read everything in this thread....some good platforms are compared and scrutinized: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=82568&perpage=6&pagenumber=1

Works well...I tried it on a few ELS files (TS 2000i). Should work for ELD as well. http://viziblesoft.com/elspasswd/index.html

First, you've got to be real careful out there....it's very confusing. For instance, Buttontrader, which is an excellent DOM EXECUTION platform, has an automation "feature". However, when you look into it further, it is not really "programmable". Secondly, you do not want to attempt to build...

Good to know....I'm not using TS8 at the moment. I wonder exactly when this feature was implemented ? Seems that since they don't even mention MIT, then many users may be unaware of it's existence.

Not that surprising. Since most of the worker-bees have been laid-off due to outsourcing, nothing but bullshit jobs remain in corporate America: http://www.amazon.com/100-Bullshit-Jobs-How-Them/dp/0060734795/sr=1-1/qid=1167178743/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/102-9038758-3559364?ie=UTF8&s=books "Where's the...

Indeed, a poll of TS users indicates widespread need for an MIT order command: https://www.tradestation.com/Discussions/Topic.aspx?Topic_ID=55435 However, with TS8.x, and using the IntrabarPersist directive, I believe it is fairly straightforward to code your own MIT order. With the TS2000i...

NO RECENT INFORMATION. Last update was: as of 7/1/2006 Matador was down 12% YTD. Unquestionably, if he stuck to his original strategy of selling index put options, he has GOT to be up huge this past 5 months.

Telling....very telling. Tech is dead. 1999-2000 deja vue all over again.

1999-2000 deja vue.....EXACTLY....If you cannot SEE the BUBBLE, certainly, you can SMELL it ! All bubbles end, and mostly badly. Cash-out now while you can.

Frost - hate to keep bothering you with questions, but from your backtesting, how does the 26 days compare to the AVERAGE drawdown length of time ? Also, do you know the standard deviation of this length ? I'm just wondering that if you get to 2+ standard deviations from the average, it won't be...

Wow...you're a bit impatient, aren't you ? Buy ("BuyLo") 20 contracts Next Bar at low[1] - 2 Points Limit;

You should be able to file a complaint or SOMETHING with the NYSE compliance department. That is so totally wrong and awful. Does Thain know this is happening ? I doubt it !

Everything he's done appears out of circulation....the software, his book, his indicators..... did the guy DIE, I wonder ?

Frost - we're all intrigued by your bot, so could you provide a bit more detail....like the number of trades for the day, and the long or short positions taken ?

Does anybody know exactly WHY they shut down ?

You need to get onto the tradestation.com forums and see all of the issues involved....and they are NOT actually directly related to easy language. The biggest ones are related to order fullfillment....signals triggering buy/sell orders are sometimes not really filled...so there is special code...

No one ? I wonder if Jack Hershey knows this guy who goes back some time ?

but guys....John Thain thinks everything is WONDERFUL at the NYSE....and heck, they're going into the futures markets next....better BEND OVER ! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The NYSE would also consider expanding into the U.S. futures...

It is pretty unbelieveable....Ben just seems to have a cadre of helicopters flying over the US tossing greenbacks out. The printing presses must be in overdrive. And so we are riding a veritable tidal wave of liquidity here.

Someone on another group asked about an indicator called "Formula X". I did some 'net research and it pointed to the above author and his company. He even wrote a book (below). http://stockcharts.stores.yahoo.net/newloatteanb.html However, this indicator's exact calculation appears to be a...
