    Order-Entry Keypads

    Actually it would depend on what software you are using. Cyber: If you have 565 shares and enter a "sell isld bid" order it will just sell 565 shares, even if you enter the order for 1000 shares. That is one thing I really like about Cyber's software. AB Watley: There is a checkbox called...

    Please help newbies- How to trade w. indicastors

    OK there is a misconception by many newer traders about tools such as RSI. It is fairly obvious that RSI gives many false/lagging signals, so many new traders discard it as a tool and convince themselves that they should rely on trading instinct. This is the common mistake. <b>RSI should...

    Please help newbies- How to trade w. indicastors

    I think what P2 means by "gut" is being able to look at a situation (chart, L2, T&S) and be able to get a "gut" feel for what is really happening. It's not just a blind feeling (or moon phases). All experienced traders will get this feel for stocks/markets they know well.

    I posted this a couple weeks ago, but since it's on topic here: http://www.iwinfree.com/xkey.htm I bought the XKey keypad to use with AB Watley and it works great. The link above is how I chose to set it up.

    Pairs Trading (NEW)

    As far as seeing past pairs trades, they aren't worth posting ;-) I have found that I can play the LLTC/MXIM pair, but must finesse the trade. By this I mean if the futs are running I will get the long position first, then mabye 5 mins later take the short position. In effect this locks...

    Anyone actually succeeding?

    In all honesty the money I have made was from Jan-April. Since then only my brokers have made money. Once the volume picks up (hopefully starting today) I will get back into my scalping methods using LLTC/MXIM which fit that criteria pretty well. I've also been experimenting with pairs...

    Daytrading with stochastics

    Yeah I realized after my reply that you may have meant that. Since DI+- is included in my DM indicator I assumed that everyone else has the same thing.

    I find it strange.

    Could you give some support for this? In the market we have had the past few months why would anyone be trading big volume?

    Anyone actually succeeding?

    Hmm...I wonder who will be willing to respond to this :D 1999: 100% 2000: 700% 2001: 50% (So far, on a bigger account) Percentage results don't really tell the whole story because beginning stake really skews it.

    Actually ADX does show which way the trend is going. DI+/DI- and ADX up: Uptrend DI+/DI- and ADX down: No Trend DI-/DI+ and ADX up: Downtrend DI-/DI+ and ADX down: No Trend I use this with Stoch's, RSI, and BB's.
