    data

    IB offers free delayed data (15 minutes) for selected symbols including ES through its TWS Demo. This would be an option if you just want to collect some intraday data for chart scrolling later on. There are some free charting apps out there that would work with this (sorry but I don't know...

    Understanding IB

    def, You're a stand-up guy and I know I'm not the only one at ET that appreciates what you do here...but I have to disagree with your opinion on when a supervisor should be called in. A number of companies employ such people to work the customer service department even if they are not true...

    Any Mac OS X Gurus?

    Ouch. I'm a Mac addict but certainly no guru. There's a ton of archived support files at apple.com but the best help I've ever received was, believe it or not, on the Apple Users Group board at the Motley Fool. Those folks know their stuff and they're more than willing to help out anyone with...

    List of Trading Seminars?

    The expo is fun if you enjoy listening to pitches from the latest hucksters. The "free" seminars are just long commercials for various products/systems, complete with hand-picked perfect charts to bolster their cases. The pay-for seminars are good if you enjoy paying a couple hundred bucks to...

    Trading NR's & WR's

    FWIW, after a NR day, I'm on the hunt for a breakout and possibly retracements if a trend is established. After a WR, chances are good that you're in for another NR the way things have been going lately. As for a strategy when this happens, staying out has been the best strategy for me. Of...

    Yes, yes, yes!!! I was referred to this site a couple of months ago by a fellow trader. While I found some threads/posts useful, the majority was not. I have not been to this site lately because of this. I (like most everyone else here) am extremely busy and just can not waste time here on...

    Sometimes I think that trading is a very bad job

    I know it's been said before, but I've got to say it again: Trading is life. Learning will help you get your head on straight. Execution will throw that nasty subconscious stuff right in your face. I can't think of a better program of self improvement and discovery than developing and...

    picking 1 product to trade and master

    This is a very fine idea. Pick up any trading book worth it's salt and you will find this suggestion. I trade only the ES but I don't hold overnight- too much risk with news and overnight action. Most of the time, I only trade the first three hours or so of the NY open. I live in the Pacific...
