    The official "Is it safe to download the new and improved TWS version? " thread.

    I warn you this new release requires you to reboot your computer - not good for those of us who like to keep it running 24/7.

    Iran Strike By US Scheduled For 6th April 2007

    These claims are just silly. Several months of media war propaganda precede any US military intervention. We haven't even seen any tearful refugees yet.

    That's very generous of you. How much profit has your MaxSpan strategy earned this month by the way?

    market delta users??? Opinions??

    I know nothing of the mac version but as 95% of computer users are PC users it's not much good for most of us. Just one bug after another with those Investor/RT charts.

    PureTick's MaxSpan

    They thought a trading system backtested on 6 months data based on a 50 point stop and 10 point profit target was a great idea. I just had a look at their track record for March. Very entertaining.

    market delta users??? Opinions??

    The MarketDelta Footprint chart is interesting but not as unique as they would like you to believe. It's just a more detailed version of the Bid/Ask volume breakdown available with most charting packages. The Investor/RT charts that come bundled with MarketDelta are total and utter junk so...

    book trader vs button

    I much prefer BookTrader. In fact I love it and can't see why anyone would look for a third party front end. The new advanced mode is the icing on the cake.

    squeeze indicator

    They're also trying to sell a pivot point study for the same price. Rip-off merchants, endorsed by CBOT.

    Who is affected by DST?

    DTN have totally messed up. I'm in the UK and daylight saving doesn't come in for another couple of weeks but now all my times are being displayed one hour ahead even though my charts are set to GMT. What a farce.

    Al Gore rhythm? That's the funniest thing I've ever read on ET. :D

    What to tell my neighbors about my trading career.

    A lot of people give themselves fancy titles. You don't hear a gastroenterologist saying "I peer up people's arses for a living" so it's unnecessary to say "I trade for a living". A lot of people have no idea what a "trader" is. The word is far too broad. What kind of trader? An ebay trader? A...

    Looking for John Carter's (TTM) Indicators for eSignal

    That's not true, he makes no secret about the formula for his indicators. It's just Keltner Bands going inside Bollinger Bands and then breaking out in the direction of Momentum or some such nonsense. The information is freely available if you search for it.

    How many times do you restart IB TWS per day?

    Thanks. I manually updated from the website. Strange how autoupdate suddenly decided not to work properly. On another note you can set priorities by hitting ctrl alt and delete and right clicking on the process. More info here...

    How many times do you restart IB TWS per day?

    TWS has suddenly started telling me that updates are available but when I try to update it tells me I'm running the latest version. Anyone else have this problem? Version 866.5.

    MBT/EFX During News....

    Of course it's not their spreads but the spreads they're getting from the banks. It's the same with IB's IdealPro. That's the way the interbank market is around big news releases.

    Maybe FORGET VISTA Altogether?

    The only thing Gates will be supplying by then is anti-malaria medication, to be fair to him.

    eSignal v IQFeed

    DTN.IQ market themselves as the only ones to offer unfiltered data but I doubt that's true. I see no evidence that eSignal data is filtered. If you look at the video I posted you'll see that some DTN.IQ feed data is aggregated compared to eSignal data.

    eSignal v IQFeed

    I made a video comparing the two. ES time and sales for eSignal is on the left and the one on the right is DTN.IQ. As you can see, eSignal is ahead by a mile. I'm in the UK and eSignal has EU servers but with such a big difference I'm sure there's more to it than that.
