They have up to monthly charts. I believe it goes to 20 years.

I assume you're referring to the dashboard. You can bypass the trade screen by setting it in SETUP. Shift-click will execute the order immediately.

They were answering a direct statement I made to them about enhancing order entry. They're constantly adding new features that get requested.

Not sure how hotkey relates to charting (your original question) but regardless they told me that fully configurable quick order entry including chart trading is coming towards the summer.

I have TOS and have traded futures on it. It is not the best for a couple of reasons, and they're mostly when considering scalping. Compared to IB, or a futures broker TOS has a higher base futures comission and they don't offer as many futures products. Compared to a futures broker the order...

I have OEC through Amp. The live is exactly the same as the demo, only that the live is attached to your money account. You don't pay for anything out side of whatever they quote you on the commissions. I went through Amp because the rates were a little cheaper and the account balance needed to...

so according to the current daily p&f, the SPY and the DIA still have not broken the down trend?

was the target strictly based on price resistance?

With tight stops you'll have to tick scalp on momentum or on reversals. The YM has quite a bit of back-fill.

Hallelujah! Happy Easter!

so .5, .75 and 1.0 is the timeframe? I agree on the double bottom sell. The odds are very great for a short term retrace on dbl bottom/top

Care to explain this a bit more?

Anyone believing that getting 600 dollars is going to change their individual financial situation has missed the point. I could care less how it's packaged, stimulus has always existed for business first and trickle down second. Anyone who has more than 100 bucks in the market should know the...

you are missing the point of "stimulus." It's not to help people pay their bills, it's for giving people money to spend supplying business with sales and revenue. Stimulus is not about helping the consumer it's about helping business. Whether or not it will do anything is another conversation.

If I was interested in generating income then something like a vertical would have less risk. You're not hedged writing a call.

Just a caution, I've read that MBT isn't great for scalping.

I'm was watching the Amp demo yesterday while my funds get wired. I saw one outage sometime in the morning, but it was only for a few seconds. Not sure if the live platform was any different. The demo uses the same data and I think the demo is using the same features.

I agree with this info. One caveat, as long as my stop has not been taken out I let it work for a couple minutes (1 min timeframe) but if after this time it isn't showing strength in price or volume I get out with fractional profit/loss or flat. If you're only targeting one move quick move there...

it is definitely less smooth. It is now similar to ES with backfills, and choppy moves. I suppose it's good if you're scalping for a few ticks.

Unfortunately this is true. YM has become as back-fill happy as the ES since it changed exchange at the beginning of the year. Up to the change the YM was reasonably smooth and much less erratic. I don't like trading it as much now.
