Or just live in Southern California where the weather is always beautiful and the market closes at 1 pm, so you can spend the afternoon at the beach. (Only problem is that you have to start at 6:30 am). To answer your question, I don't take much time off because I actually like to trade and...

Because you are just starting out, it is probably a good idea for you to concentrate on one stock at a time until you have a good track record with it. After you master one, move on to another. Repeat this process until you have 5-15 stocks whose movement you understand and in which you are...

Yes, I did. I thought May was a great month for trading. As a matter of fact, I had only one slightly losing day and most of the loss was commissions. Not sure why everyone seems to think May was not a good month for trading. BTW, I don't hold anything overnight and most of my trades are less...

You could try deleting the JTS folder and downloading an reinstalling TWS. You may want to backup your JTS folder before deleting it. You will have to reconfigure hotkeys, etc. if you take this route, but you can easily go back to your old configuration if you save the backup.

So then what is worth trading outside of the US markets besides ESTX50 and the DAX?

What are the IB commissions for trading UK stocks? It looks like they are 6 GBP per side for under 50,000 GBP worth. Is it possible to daytrade UK stocks through IB successfully or are the commissions too high? What are some of the UK stocks that are equivalent to the US tech stocks in...

Hi, In TWS have three workspaces: 1. Default 2. Post Upgrade 3. Pre Upgrade I'd like to save pre upgrade to a dulicate and modify it and then have it be the default. The problem is that whenever I do that, it only lasts for the current session and the next time I open TWS it opens to...

I notice that trading hours are supposed to be: 00:20 - 16:15 (ET) 16:45 - 21:15 (ET) 21:30 - 23:00 (ET) Where do you trade it after 2:30 pm eastern time? Thanks.

What fee is that? Where can I look it up to see if it still exists? Thanks

Thanks, Where is the best place to get historical intraday data on these markets to take a look at how tradable they seem?

Hi, Just wondering which futures are tradable and have decent volume 7 pm to 6 am EST? Thanks

Hi, What does everybody think is the best data source for futures and why? Thanks

I don't agree with this at all. I think the games are quite good. You just have to outplay people as opposed to waiting for better hands and hoping they don't draw out. In some ways the games are better than they were before. Also, sngs are not the best place to make money playing poker.

Hi, Just wanted to mention that Johnny Chan has a new book out geared toward beginning and intermediate players. It's available at http://www.playLikeChan.com Currently the copies are autographed, but I don't think that's going to last as he's not too into signing them.

Just wondering if anyone is making serious money over the long run playing online. I notice a lot of people saying they like it and that they are getting up to speed, etc. I know they have games that are pretty high and could return a good income if someone was serious, but it doesn't seem like...

I agree that this would be the most intelligent solution. I think deleting his entire posts implies a lack of respect for your readers.

Hi, I must be confused. I have attached a screenshot of 8-25-03 in esignal along with the settings for the ADX/DMI. The confirmation you suggest in the beginning of the thread does not seem to be present. Can you tell me what I have wrong here? Thanks BTW this is PST on the chart

I think you've already gotten some good advice from other posters, but number 8 indicates there was a problem with the order. Why not contact IB and get to the bottom of it before reinitiating the same trade? If I'm not mistaken they have live help which is faster than their phone service.

Hi, 1) What data feed do you use? 2) Which are the best of the Euro Currencies? 3) What are the best hours to trade them? 4) Where can I find the specs for these contracts? Thanks also to Steve_IB
