I have read or have several interviews with this guy ricky cheung , and from what i gather in regards to him charging that amount of money , is that his systems or black boxes are closed meaning you can lease the systems for a nominal fee which is not very much , several thousand a year i...

I use Neoticker , and have written and developed some great custom breadth indicators , comparing it to its main rival being tradestation it is light years ahead , if you take the time to have a look at some of the capabilities such as "user define manager" and "neobreadth" you can take almost...

This is the first day i have seen in about a month where I have seen real institutional buying volume come in from the lows of the session , but as another poster said lets wait and see what happens , anything can happen in this market , but all I know is somebody is picking up stocks at these...

I believe what your talking about is it's component weight in an index and not the spread ? As of today GE has a weighting of 1.80% in the Dow Jones 30 index and is ranked 25th . In the S&P 500 GE is ranked 2nd with a weighting of 2.38% . This information and related material such as...

here's an interesting paper on the subject , it maybe a few years old but it is still relevant and argues the point for a reduction in the tick size...

I guess you are asking why the spread is 0.25 and not 0.1 like the large contract ? The mini tick size should now only be 0.1 instead of 0.25 . When the ES was first introduced it did not have the liquidity so was priced with a bigger spread , now the ES has enormous liquidity which has...

THat is brilliant and so funny , should be front page on ET ....

I agree with IRM , I came across this company http://alphacet.com/ But again it looks expensive it is a all in one from testing to execution , and is primarily used by hedge funds and institutions , I am not aware of how much it costs ...

Great Article Psytrade, I didnt understand the complexities of the CDO products, but this article gives a better picture of where all of this comes from . What a derrivative product "cdo's of cdo's of cdo's !!!" No wonder the market is doing what it is doing , it looks to me based on the...

Hi BoyBrutus, This is just a rough example . An institution may have say a dozen different portfolio managers , who wish to execute various trades the following day ,some want to buy and add to exsisting portfolios , others wish to sell to trim exsisting portfolios or go to cash , whatever...

Hi Neoxx, I trade the Dax in the morning our time (U.K.) from 8.00am till 12.00 midday then the U.S. market opens at 2.30pm , which I trade up until 4.30pm all U.K. time . No particular reason why I trade Dax in the morning , its just that I like to dabble in both indicies but the ES is...

I think you need to distinguish between Technical analysis and algorithmic/quantative analysis ... In their very general sense TA usually refers to moving averages oscilators like RSI and Stochastics and various chart patterns... Algorithmic/quantative analysis dlves deep into all forms...

Like everyone is saying depends on your trading style of when to trade , I am also based in the U.K. and I think its the best time zone to be in . I trade the Dax in the morning and go on to the ES from 9.30am to 11.30am (eastern time). For me that time (9.30-11.30) has the highest amount of...

dax is number one , similar to ES , lots of volatility and the tick size relative to daily range is great , lots of room for different styles of trading ...

pre-market Es primarily is hedging activities done by brokerages before the upcoming 9.30am open of the stocks . What I mean by this is when instituions and portfolio managers and so on send their buy and sell orders to the brokers to execute , the brokers will use the Es to hedge the upcoming...

I was wondering back to the first few pages of this thread where Zal was saying that ES participants are 4:1 in favor of speculators , according to exchange cti codes. I have looked at various cti codes over the years and have never seen a ratio of 4 :1. From what I have seen on average...

Neoticker is specially built for the purpose of building specific equally weighted or weighted indicies without using their programming side of things . What I mean by this is they have a section called "user define manager" where by you have all the symbols of your index and you can set the...
