With $50B it wouldn't surprise me if he wasn't loaded up with a company in every sector.

Possibly. I just remember when that speak started squaking loudly, we just hit the F9 (for buy 1000 shares) or F10 (for short 1000 shares), and all of the stocks moved up/down at the same time. Now I do robotic trading and have them set to jump in and out when most of the stocks in the...

I used to trade in a day trading house, and we had a speaker with someone actually on the market floor. It would talk in a low-volume, monotone voice when nothing was happening. However, once in a while it would start screaming "GOLMAN'S BYING, MORGAN'S BYING", and we would all start pounding...

If you watch all sectors (financial, healthcare, tech, etc) during the day, you will see multiple times where ALL of the sectors run up AT THE SAME TIME, or ALL of the sectors run down AT THE SAME TIME. That is clearly done when the institutional Program Traders are doing their thing. You can...

Exactly. My robotic traders trade different stocks all day long and I imagine thousands of others are using some kind of robotic trading, not to mention the institutional "program trading" computers. Even if robotic trading was rare, what would be the advantage of knowing that a stock was...

What you are trying to do is simple. Just type in robotic trading in google and you'll see software that does it, and doesn't even require programming skills.

Actually for STOCKS those indicators are followed by many and "most" of the time are pretty good indicators. I just don't think they are very relevant for Forex. Of course, I too am not as experienced with Forex as I am with stocks. I do pretty good "so far" by just going Long at the bottom...

If you are running an ATS with their API, that setting means do not send the orders upon connection. When the ATS is ready for it, it will be asked for.

I send 100 and 200 share market orders to interactive brokers and the fills are always within the best big/ask. I don't know how odd lots (40 shares) are handled though. Seems if the bid did not go down then the fill should not have been at that price. I wouldn't worry about it unless it...

Georgii, If you have studied all of those indicators, IN DEPTH, then you are waaaaaaaaaaaaaay ahead of most in the market. My feeling is that all that you are doing is good for stocks, but is probably overkill for forex. Take a look at simple ATR(14). When the symbol/pair drops by...

From what I see on their website, so far, they are only number crunching. I don't see anything that I can apply to my robotic traders yet. I'll check back periodically to see when they have a product. Not counting them out YET@!

$800k/$4M = 20% a year So what? It's not a big deal. I consider a $30,000 account to be an average size account. At 20% a year, we are only talking about: $30,000 X 20% = $6000/year or $500/mo. or $25/day Again, not a big deal! Ed

Pardon my asking, but what is an "EA"?

And that doesn't account for slippage or trade fees.

It cannot be an "Annual" return if the data is only for 6 months. You mean it is an "Annualized" return, assuming that the next 6 months will repeat what it did in the last 6 months. As I recall, the market jumped a huge amount in the last few months, so I doubt you will get the same returns...

I measure the quality of the system / strategies by the amount of money they make. That is the only thing that matters in the end. Ed

Thanks, I'll sign up as a sponsor. Ed

TraderZone, I went through many of your posts and this is a sample of the kinds of posts you make: "STILL GOING!!!!! The Zionizer Bunny!!!!" "I hope you were jesting. The one month performance making a few hundred is about as impressive as getting all your stream into the urinal..." "I...

No. I don't get it? I never delete posts, if that is what you are saying. TraderZone, the problem is that you searched for "Cool" and not "CoolTrade". Your accusations are ALL WRONG.

Thank you for the information. In the future I will not post phone numbers, email addresses, and urls. I appreciate it. Ed
