    freaking funny, news sites/analysts can't keep up

    This morning's coverage of the markets by MSNBC was hilarious. The anchor stepped in with breaking news about O'Neill's resignation... let's go to Wall Street and check those numbers. Yup, they're way down after the resignation news (Dow -50). Guess she didn't see the Dow futures after the...

    Gann

    I'm not sure anyone can make Gann "easy" but I enjoyed this book: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0961801808/qid=1037748472/sr=2-1/ref=sr_2_1/104-6602332-6873525 I suppose the classic is How To Make Profits in Commodities, but you may want to send a pm to TSaimoto on this forum -...

    What do you use for scanning with tradestation6 ?

    Had to dump 2000i when migrating to XP, so needed an interim scanner and chose NeoTicker. Last I heard regarding TS7 is Jan/Feb release...

    Whats the current opinion of new Tradestation Platform?

    I'm not sure what functionality is included in TS 7, but some of the features from 2000i need to be put back into their next release: 1. End-of-day scanning (Workspace Assistant in 2000i) 2. Real-time scanning (similar to RadarScreen) 3. Importing third-party data 4. Composite symbols...

    "Complete" Turtle System w/diversification and pyramiding under WL and TS

    Wow, how's Sands been doing? I remember getting Turtle Talk back in 1992 and then letting it tail off because the Turtle system had a couple of lean years during that period, just when the stock market was beginning another ramp. Also, didn't a couple of the original Turtle disciple funds go...

    bloomberg terminal- worth the $$$ ??

    I pay $1640 per month, and it's worth every penny. Their news is usually ahead of the other feeds, but watch out for the dreaded corrections.

    THC- crying in our beer

    Did anyone trade the last 15 minutes in THC? Huge blocks for sale between 15:45 and 15:55, driving the price down to low 25's before huge buying in the closing minutes preceding the conference call, driving the stock up almost 2 points in a few minutes, i.e., if you didn't get the shares on the...

    Is Tradestation worth getting?

    rah, why not keep both? I use RealTick for direct access and Level II (since TradeStation's Level II has quirks) and use TradeStation for backtesting / systems / etc. Plus, having a redundant feed is good for comparing speed of the respective platforms.

    Good book

    Great book, make sure to filter the ACD signals using a minimum historical volatility. The "A Up/Down" and "C Up/Down" signals have been spectacular lately; however, if you're trading these signals intraday on individual stocks, any spread wider than a nickel will kill your your P&L. Best to...

    40yo's new career or bust
