I think this is what he wants to do : Buy something with a 2 point initial stop. Once he has a gain of 1 point, the initial stop should be changed into a 1 point trailing stop. If this is the case, try my previous reply (I haven't tested it myself, but I guess it should work that way)

You might want to look at conditional orders. These are orders that sre submitted or cancelled when a certain criteria (price) is met. You can set your initial stop that cancels itself when the trade touches a certain price. At that same price you makesure your trailing stop is submitted.

Calculations are wrong !!! Use Line charts, The only correct points when calculating spreads are the open and the close because the happen at the same time. The only way to build candles (OHLC) if to use tick data to build the candle..... I have not found a charting package that will do...

I know, but what i meant to say was this : If you have problems with people frontrunning you (on BRUT) for $0.0001 than you must be scalping for (sub) pennies. If this is the case, you also need rebates (Or else this type of trading is not possible imho) Also, IMO every platform used for...

Testing the Genesis Demo and I can use $0.0001 :D Oh, and they also offer rebates when I add liquidity....

Yes, Just use username : edemo password : demouser

Perhaps more information can be found on the US products (TBonds / TNotes / TBills) or the BUND / BOBL spread. Principle is the same.

Yes, They provide an execution only package (although they are adding features) so no T&S.

This is what Serge (Genesis) told me when we discussed the commission structure. If I wanted to open a PRO account there would not be a minimum ticket charge, but in case of opening a RETAIL account he had to charge the minimum of $1,- / trade to cover his costs. There're no extra charges...

Please send me a copy.

$250 /month software charge for retail accounts is only if you trade < 20.000 shares in that month. It has been posted by Genesis (Serge) on ET several times. IB also has a minimum commission of $1,- (And MB, Tradestation etc.) This is because there are costs involved in clearing for a...

No, Actually there are more Attain Data Redi

To which ECN's does Genesis have connections ?

I know XOOM Trade (sponsor on this site) had a program like this. Contact them to see if they still do. Remember, these accounts are NOT SIPC !!!!! I don't recommend trading if you don't have enough money to get a regular retail account. If you decide to join a pro firm you have to take...

Just to clarify, 'Scalping' for SMALL MOVES is what I used to do and where I know I can make money. What I'm currently trying to do (scalping for tick(s) or even fo the spread) is something I cannot even call scalping.....but I'm not sure it's the right thing to do since credits are at their...

I've been posting very little last few months but I keep on reading ET every evening and weekend (now) I've been very busy working on some some new techniques and while doing that I only have access to 2 monitors (charting / execution) so I have no room for ET :mad: I think within a short...

ES, Great thread, I follow with much interest.

I expected something like this :( But on a more serious note, are you planning on opening European offices or do we have to keep trading from our appartments with no fellow traders around....
