    Finally, a stripped down TWS made possible with new build 854?

    I agree with you Karma. I've been using TWS for several years , and I have found it to be very reliable. In saying that, I must also say that I do not use their charting. I do, however, use the scanner and market stats, which I find to be very nice features.

    Who on this forum you learned the most from?

    I learned a lot from Tony Oz. He used to post on ET but stopped a few years ago. The last contact I had with him was an email in Jan '03; I haven't heard from him since.

    Very hard time taking loss:(

    kming, Been there. I suggest, until you can become more disciplined, you should always use mechanical stops on NASDAQ and sound alerts on NYSE (Make sure the sound alerts are LOUD). To be successful you have to trade like a machine. It's hard, but you have to overcome taking your stops...

    Very hard time taking loss:(

    Well, that makes no sense. What do you want him to do, Ripley, trade 1 share at a time? He said he was only trading 100 to 150 shares. At some point even if you're right, it makes no sense to trade if you don't get a return; and even if he has a winning edge, taking a stop loss is the most...

    Interest Free forex brokerages?

    I ran into a guy this evening who talked about FX Trainer. What is that? It sounded like a pyramid scheme. Does anyone have info or insight on it? He proceeded to say he was giving seminars in two different states-- which made me think: when does he have time to trade? Any...

    ANNOUNCEMENT- seeking traders interested in overturning the PDT rule

    This thread is a good thought, but it is beating a dead horse. I took to arms back when this whole thing got started. They pulled it over everyone without making it public-- although they said it was. Nobody really knew about it until it was passed. Anyway, I took to arms, started...

    ANNOUNCEMENT- seeking traders interested in overturning the PDT rule

    Sorry, that's not the way it works. You can not combine accounts; not even personal accounts. If it is being done at a brokerage, it is not keeping within the existing PDT rule.

    Retiring from trading

    "If you are not a homeowner and have to rent a home on the East coast it could easily cost $2000 a month." That is a quote from monee., which I totally disagree with. I live on the east coast and there are plenty of places where you can rent for around $1000 per month. That being said...

    Not sure what to do, any help appreciated

    Smart order routing in the best way to use IB. No matter how long you hold, you want the best price when you buy. Smart routing has given me price improvement on several occasions-- even when I put a higher bid in. I had it to happen last week on a NYSE issue and it saved me .03. Good...

    I am online with my computer all the time

    No, that's not what I meant. I was just commenting on the thread you started. You simply post alot--7900. If you're going to post, make it worthwhile. If you find yourself posting just to be posting, then you might want to consider taking a break. That's only reasonable. Please do not be...
