Yes, US stocks.

No disagreement, but keep in mind you are most likely making money off those "amateurs", so doesn't hurt to understand their (our?!) view of the world.

Don't overthink it ... just a poll to satisfy my curiosity :) BTW, lots of general terms, and no specifics. It's is what you make it to be, right? Life and death?! ... only if you choose it to be.

Yep, that sounds right to me, give or take a few.

Was looking at a presentation and noticed that presenter's 200 simple moving avg didn't match mine on intraday timeframe. The difference was due to pre-market activity. Given that it's widely used and thus becomes a self full filling profecy, I wander how people have theirs set.

I am more curious about level2. The way they describe it, you should be getting all updates to maintain the book. So that could be used to build consolidated limit order book and give you near real time nbbo(or close to it) I'm not that concerned if they conflate trade info. I'm more sceptical...

Oh forgot the options ones: Steven Place Option Alpha

I think you should narrow the field by style, but here are some of the ones I follow: Dave Landry Stockbee Warrior Aziz Barak Disclaimer: Not a paying subscriber to any of these at the moment.

Well, I got an answer in one of their ads, but no details :) Disclaimer: This is NOT an endorsement! I'm NOT recommending this service, just curious if anyone followed it and how it did historically. I do think CAN SLIM is a valid approach to trading and O'Neils' book is very good read of...

Looking at it some more, I think the reason stats not available is because it's just a alert service - no hypothetical portfolio is traded, so there is no money management/position sizing.

Are there any statistics on Investor's Business Daily's SwingTrader? I would assume their strategy would do great during this strong bull market, but I can't find any stats.

Why?
