Yes I have developed some on my own and have modified others. I then combined them using a scoring system and plot the "total score" against the stocks price. I have an indicator to measure a stocks trend and a stocks counter trend. Here is a sample chart....

I will check out this program but there is also another program on the market that uses the IB datafeed (and others ) to interface with metastock . The campanies website is http://www.traders-soft.com/ Why not give both a try.

Never heard of moneytec.com before now. I will have to look through it later but am going to bed soon. I would not consider using fundamental analysis for intraday trading, it is just not practical. I developed my own set of technical indicators to identify longer term trends in stocks and have...

I would like to see IB offer BB stocks also, I bought a couple of NASDAQ stocks that transferred to the bulletin Board. I think I can still sell them but would have to call them and have them put in the order manually. I am glad to see IB offer Canadian stocks. I don't know if they offer...

Yes It sounds like a good idea. I put a post up in 2 other places, lets try again here. We just nee a time and location.

I am also from Calgary. There seems to be a few of us on ET. Mostly doing position trades with a small account at IB.

saikiranray What method you use to pick your stocks, currencies or futures is up to you. I use a technical analysis system that gives point values to various technical indicators and sums them up. The summed value is plotted against a stock price to give an indication of a stocks trend. I...

I have an account at betonmarkets. Started with 10 bucks, up to about 15 now! They do offer some interesting ways of betting and it is a way to play the market on a really small scale. Another interesting site is www.otcoptions.com run by the same group. They have a few more diffrent types...

What kind of paper trading do you want to do. Funky and Vhehn I think are making the assumption you want to do short term futures trading and this may not be the case. The Nina trader and futures-trader and programs like this are great tools for this but if you are interested in testing some...

The Vancouver crowd seems to have had some success in getting a meeting going. Are there any traders, (long-term / short-term/ any-term) that are interested in doing the same thing (getting together for a beer ) . . . but at a Calgary location of course. I have this message in the...

CDTRADER Sounds good to me. Just set a time and place and see if we can get more to come.

I just happen to have a dell 4100 also and when I got it it was pretty quiet. Lately it was getting rather noisy also. I was going to add some memory to it so I opened it up and vacuumed it out. Well there are only 2 memory slots and I thought there were 3 so no memory upgrade. Since I put the...

The Vancouver crowd seems to have had some success in getting a meeting going. Are there any traders, (long-term / short-term/ any-term) that are interested in doing the same thing . . .but at a Calgary bar of course.

I would look at the following to determine if a track record is goo.. The number of trades has to be sufficiently large so as to cancel out any "good or bad luck" from the sample. 200 trades on a swing or position trading method would probably be about right. On a day trading system 1000...

There is a program called poker wiz that you might find interesting. http://www.pokerwiz.com/

I said before that my indicator would have to get to -100 before i would consider shorting and so far they have not. I was smart enough not to short them but not smart enough to buy them. Wow! sohu at 42 or so. The initial poster may be proven "right" in the long run but this game is not...

On a hand by hand basis folding is free 8 times out of ten in a regular holdem game. The cost of transportation and "free" buffets .. I would consider them to be a cost of doing business.

TKO: CSM stands for Continuous Shuffle Machine. After each round the dealer puts the discards back in the machine and the count reverts back to zero effectively eliminating the counters advantage. Don B: Revere' s book is a good read but was designed in a different era. The age of single...

I played blackjack for a little over two years and did well. Finally the casino where I played got sick of me and I was "terminated" from my position. I never made 100 grand a year but did ok. There are similarities between blackjack and trading but I would agree with another poster who said...
