    PropTrader - Daily exploits

    Same as most prop firms as far as I'm aware. A salary would be great... are you offering one? :) Surviving? beg, borrow & steal... is what I should be doing however I'm being good and living on savings/profits from trading. Luckily Montreal is not NYC!

    PropTrader - Daily exploits

    Nothing much happened today. I wanted to trade CLNE in the morning but didn't manage to do it as other positions went against me. Would have been a good trade around the $15.80 level. I had a position in a stupid stock (I can't even remember the ticker) which was breaking out in the morning...

    ECN ticker codes and symbols

    I agree it is a bs exchange... always the last to be filled. I find they use it on credit stocks to lock levels but most of the time it's useless. Yeah I'm 100% sure. I used to use it with some stocks until they screwed me around on the rebates. I don't use CHX as I can't post on it... I...

    Scanners - Anyone using/used MadScan??

    I guess people don't see posts down here... should have probably put it in the trading forum. Might have got a few responses there

    PropTrader - Daily exploits

    Not taking any size and limiting my risk. Today was a day where I took nothing but longs as I recognized early what the market was doing. Just got chopped out of my positions. Didn't make any good trades and the losses I took were like under $50 on any individual stock. Nothing really to...

    What else do you want? NSX = C on t&s's.... Nasdaq Phlx = NQPX on the level 2.

    Scanners - Anyone using/used MadScan??

    I'm using the free version of Madscan but I would like to try the fulll version with eSignal charts. (Sterling charts suck) I just wanted to see if anyone has had experience with Madscan and what they thought about it. I tried searching on ET but couldn't find much. For those who use a...

    ElecEquity's Active Trading Journal

    I feel your pain... The past 2 weeks have been rough for me as well We just have to survive to the better days. Sometimes it can be tough to just NOT TRADE... But it's easier said then done

    PropTrader - Daily exploits

    I didn't update late last week. I started trading better on Thursday & Friday but still couldn't get a positive day. Very frustrating. Thursday ($350) - Got a nice breakout on PRAN +$150 in the morning. Tried a short on SIRI and was out after about 2mins hahaha ($130). Got chopped out on AMD...

    T3

    I'm pretty sure he wasn't disrespecting you in anyway. I understand English may not be your first language so maybe your misunderstood something. Roak is correct though - the commission is quite high. I'm sure this can be negotiated if you talk to them i.e. commission is lower if you do over...

    PropTrader - Daily exploits

    Wow, company selling shares into the pop... that instills confidence. I kept an eye on it today but didn't take a trade. Unfortunately I only trade intra-day and can't take advantage of any of these gaps.

    PropTrader - Daily exploits

    I'm an awesome trader and this market is great to trade. Both false hahaha Caught a good short on C in the morning, up $300. That's probably when I should have left. I gave back a bit on a few stocks. Was up about $150 or so and then took a trade on FCEL. Got a nice pop and then it pulled...

    High Frequency Trading: Can Any Stock Replace Citigroup?

    I agree with you about it not being HFT... however everything else you said is complete bs Maybe you should try banging keys if it's that easy... or better yet hire some monkeys to do it for you... idiot!

    PropTrader - Daily exploits

    Yeah I ignored it for the first bit of the morning as I didn't think there would be that much volume in it. 35m+ traded today... those who had my $2.24s were laughing. Might be interesting to trade over the next few days. I missed the long later in the day... tried to hit $3.85 for size and...

    PropTrader - Daily exploits

    Sorry to hear that, its tough at the moment. I have felt the 9EMA and 30WMA is reallly good for entering breakouts on a pull back. I never really had a decent system for entering once the trend had started. I would normally just pass on the trades as there was too much risk getting in. I have...

    PropTrader - Daily exploits

    Didn't update yesterday, these frustrating days are exhausting mentally. I'm basically at the stage where everything I touch turns to red on my P&L. I have had times like this before and they will happen again. I think it's just the market changing a bit and I need to adjust to it. On Monday...

    Sterling Trader pro daily bar issue

    I hate the charts of Sterling... most of all I dislike the speed issues as soon as any volume comes into the market. I have a trial of eSignal at the moment and I really like it... it's a little pricey but the functionality is great. After sorting out some of the little issues I find it...

    did I get screwed?

    I have never used brokers etc as I trade prop but I have a question for you.... did you use the "smart route" key? (I'm assuming that they give you the option of this route.) I only ask this as I normally use a limit order on ASUROUX as my aggressive buy/sell... this hits EDGA, EDGX and then...
