Why don't you just take all of your signals? Isn't tht what you want to do? If so, I don't think documenting your excuses here will help to anything other than reinforce the bad habit of not taking your signals.

Be aware that IQFeed combine prints into one - so 7 1 lot trades back-to-back might show as one 7 lot trade. Most data feed providers do this as a way to cut down on the bandwidth. IMO, because of that, your premise of "3/4 of the total volume is traded in 6-25-lot blocks" is flawed and...

I made over $1 meelyon just this morning using this system!

Because the thread usually gives that information - one or more people say "I'm not having a problem" - and most of the time the original poster says they didn't contact the broker for assistance.

I never said that anyone was lying. For example, a thread title says: "IB Server Down Again @ 15:01!!" Is that true or false, or a lie? If 3 other people post that their connection to IB is working - well, then surely the title is NOT a true statement. Now, if the title said: "My...

Really? How does that help resolve the problem?

Age old question - if he has been trading 35 years, is profitable, why waste time on selling anything?

Didn't mean to sound like I had a chip on my shoulder. Yes, they were all real order - even the ones that were busted. That's why I'll never understand why they bust any orders at all - someone must have wanted to get in/out at those levels or they wouldn't have had orders sitting there in the...

Of course it was a real order, otherwise it wouldn't have printed.

No problem. See everyone next month! :)

:D Here is what I post every month when this question comes up.... This question gets asked every single month - last day of the month. It's called end-of-month settlement. For EOM settlement, the settle price will typically be a point or more away from the actual closing price...

LMAO. This must be the quote of the year. Real traders trade at real brokers, they don't play games.

The most he lost on the options was exactly the amount of the premium. The money he lost was on the stock - two totally different things. Let me ask you this - pretend he had enough cash in his account to cover the purchase of the assigned stock - and IB didn't liquidate his ultimate...
