http://www.interactivebrokers.com/optionsCommentary/elitetrader/ Don't forget that page if you need a mover to watch - read the commentary and watch those options & track them for awhile to get the feel of it. Good Luck & remember risk!

I use options on well known momo movers for a few days swing trade - just don't buy more option contracts than you are ready to loose (all the money you buy them with!) - if you keep the risk small the payoff is nice and prevents you from getting stopped out on some of the wild movers. Also, I...

Now I think we are forgetting that he who dies with the most debt wins..... I don't think people can really afford this I think they just don't care - head in the sand sort of deal.

oh, and if you see the purple lava go up to the left buy anything! Now! Good Trading to You

i mostly use the triple lava lamp system myself...... and a few beers :)

I use Qoutetracker with IB and just started using IQ as the feed - which I really like so am going to keep. You can try Qoutetracker for free and just use IB as the feed to see if you like it. If you don't add alot of stocks to your qouteboard often intraday you won't need another feed...

Now that I know myself alittle better.....i will stop for the day! Because I know i'll give it back if i don't. Your mileage might vary though - maybe keep a trade log and look back to see how you do.

I'm starting to think it's pure Voodoo! Gonna start watching my lava lamp more closely when trading.

ROFLMAO! Hands down the best explanation yet!

Naw, when you go to the Hotel or Restaraunt you get the priviledge of getting treated that poorly in person :) j/k - sorry couldn't resist

Hello, I had been doing some DD on cygroup awhile back and noticed they had like 2 reviews in the broker section here on ET which seemed favorable. Now they are gone (the reviews, not the sub-llc) - anyone know why? Did they request they be removed? Thinking about trading through them but...

I've had some really weird data issues this month from IB's feed and very actively daytrade (besides following this system I scalp) so for me it is a big deal. To each their own though.

Yep, that's what I do, then I click on TWSStart as soon as it's fired up and that launches TWS, Qoutetracker, News & Chat while I go make some coffee. Works great.

I also use that setup (IB & QT) - did you do the beta update today? I am considering switching data providers short term, brokers long term as my IB feed has been funky for awhile now. Surfing ET it apears a few others also have concerns over IB data quality (volume funky). Regards, tef

http://www.osloader.com/ Software that allows up to 99 isolated c drives / versions of xp or whatever windows you use and/or linux,etc. I use that - trading machine on one xp version (bare load - only what is necessary for trading), play xp on hardware raid, linux on software raid (which...

Shut it off unless you own a real server. Servers are made with hardware that is designed to run 24/7, home pcs are not! There is a much shorter life expectancy on the hardrives in a personal pc for example (as opposed to a server). I have shut mine off whenever done with it for the last 9...

However, I would not ever put any credit card or bank info through a TOR proxy.

TOR is free and effective! You'd be amazed at what networks you can get outside of (work, firewalled, etc) without detection to wherever you need to surf to.

I use Newstrike - I make money off of them. It's not the only trick in my bag but it is very useful. For any news service if when you finally get the stock on the chart it looks toppy then fade it - shouldn't be a big deal.

I have an Ubuntu box, used soft raid - that's fast (was faster than hardware raid on my xp box) had other nix boxes in the past....never tried trading on them though. What trading/charting software are you using other than possibly TWS? I am considering leaving microsoft altogther rather than...
