I'm a member of the Chicago Stock Exchange ... it has the cheapest annual fee. The only reason that I'm a member, is that my prop firm requires it. Regards, Slave2Market

Here's my experience, and I've been trading via a prop firm since 1998. I don't need to trade prop because I have enough money to fund my account, but I really like the fact that if "ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE", then I'm the hook for only the amount in my account ... so in a way, it's very cheap...

pjbreen, I'm going to help you out. I've been using the Redi API for at least 5 years, and I've never been able to get it to work reliably. It's good for about 2 orders per second maximum ... and that's under absolute ideal conditions i.e., when overall market volume is light. If you are...

Here's the info: http://www.ishares.com/fund_info/detail.jhtml;jsessionid=12L2M40KJ3VAGRJUMRFRBGSFGQ0BYD50?symbol=IWM&_requestid=65832 I haven't really found any method to make money from this info ... but I'm open to suggestions! :) Regards, Slave2Market

I have an EE degree and was an engineer for 13 years. My expertise was in wireless communications systems and I have done everything from chip design to project management. I wasn't your typical engineer, and I really didn't enjoy my college classes. I found them to be boring, void of practical...

6 PM works for me ... I'll be there. Regards, Slave2Market

I think Quotes Plus will give you access to this data, and it's cheap. I would recommend you give them a call or an e-mail. They also have an API that you can use with Excel or your own custom programs. www.quotes-plus.com Regards, Slave2Market

Gecko's and Wednesday sounds good to me ... but isn't it on SR-64 e.g. Manatee Ave?

Hey Jem, I think I live right next door to you e.g. I'm in WaterLefe. Let me know if/when the drinks are flowing. Regards, Slave2Market

Yes, real estate is a lot different then tech stocks ... the Bubble is much bigger and people are even more blind to the fact that it's a bubble! :D Regards, Slave2Market ------------------------------------------------------------------ The specter of a South Florida real estate...

Hi onelot, I also just got their basic API and plan on developing an interface to Laser. I was hoping it would work with VB6, but it appears that I will need to use VB.Net. I'm pretty much a VB expert, but I now need to get spooled up on .Net in order to tackle this project. I did notice some...

In terms of Miami, I would first ask you a few of questions: 1. How old are you? 2. Do you like clubbing e.g. the kind of places with music so loud you are deaf when you leave ... and sometimes need to be "somebody" to get in? 3. Do you speak Spanish? 4. Do you like hot humid weather from...

Over the years I've done a lot of analysis of intra-day Buying/Selling volume for individual NYSE stocks and my own custom indexes. I've looked at it from a tick by tick basis, all the way up to minute and hourly bars. My honest conclusion of a huge amount of effort is that it is almost...

Yes, you can do both. You can mix and match any time frame you desire, but there are some limitations in this regard when running trading systems on a chart with different timeframes. I use it for all my system development and testing, and that's where I believe it is far superior to other...

If you're going to spend the time to learn something difficult, I would highly recommend NeoTicker. You can write your systems using a standard programming language of your choice (VB, Delphi, Java or C), so there's no proprietary issues. IMHO, it's by far the most powerful software currently...

Turok, I guess what one man considers VERY bad advice is another man's golden metric. I admit that I was making the assumption that someone who is developing trading systems isn't a total dumbass, and has some concept of market mechanics and risk management ... this could be a bad assumption...

Turok or JB: thanks for the wish, but in regards to trading, I've found wishing to be a futile exercise. :p I've been profitably trading my systems since 1998 and do very well, even in the current environment. It's definitely tougher then it used to be, but I've never told anybody that...

CPTrader, what kind of system are you developing ... monthly, weekly, daily, intraday, scalping? It all matters in terms of how to evaluate the system. Is your system trading futures, stocks, options or currency? I develop and trade intraday stock trading systems, and the only parameter that...

Kicking, I had the exact same problem! It started on Friday, and it also caused MS Outlook to fail with an error something like Wininet.dll file is corrupted. Unfortunately, I tried everything and wasn't able get Explorer or Outlook to work. I finally solved the problem by reinstalling...

igOr, That is exactly what is going on in Florida real estate! Developers are trying to crank out as many buildings as absolutely possible before the inevitable "rise in rates" occurs. If you think about it logically, any smart businessman would do the same thing. IMHO, there is currently a...
