thanks. i'm using 2000i. do you think the code below will work. i cannot test it until the market opens on Monday. the easylanguage help says barstatus is generally used with activitybar studies. if barstatus(1)=0 then begin do first thing do second thing end; a more...

I am creating a custom indicator and I have the "update on every tick" checked. I have many lines of code, but there is a certain portion of my code where I only want it process the very first tick of each bar. For example, process the first tick at the start of a 5 minute bar, but don't...

what was your time in the 50, 100, and 800?

omg man you are using accounting book values to calculate the sharpe ratio. http://www.berkshirehathaway.com/letters/2005ltr.pdf

man, can you please give the source of your information on Buffet's Sharpe ratio? if you calculated it yourself, can you please show the calculations? did you just use data from 1999-2005? The first link below is from a Wall Street Journal article written after 2005, and it says Buffet's...

who is michael? if you're wondering whether i'm your friend michael then the answer is no. lol

i would love to see a recent example of this kind of trade with as much detail as possible. which strikes to use, the thought process, etc.

very interesting. so you're saying one can either short outright or sell calls, but since options have time working against them, it is more advantageous to sell calls. but selling calls limits potential gain. so my guess is that win% improves but payoff declines. what has your experience...

not sure if you want to explain it right now, but if your view is bearish, why do you think it's better to sell calls instead of just shorting more ES outright? going back to the troughs in RSI, do you see a higher trough at 12:40 today on 5 min ES?

what are your parameters for the rsi? would you buy calls to establish a position or do you only do that to cover a short position? if you are willing to sell calls, then why not sell puts?

the three higher troughs in the RSI chart is the buy signal for the long grail? what are the cover calls and sell calls pointing out?

i can't match the graph with what you're saying. can you please go into more detail? for example, i see the higher troughs, but where are the lower peaks?

can you explain why you have options related words on the chart? i thought you're trading futures. also, what are you labeling "grail"? and what is "house of three"?

what is the third shift? is that a graveyard shift or something? also, you currently employed, but you post your resume here with the name of your employer on the resume. aren't you concerned?

i think there are institutional amateurs and institutional pros too. who says just because a trader trades institutional money then it automatically means the guy is a pro.

you were in the army?

i didn't like mortal combat that much. fatalities were nice to watch, but the characters just weren't responsive. what made SFII so good was the timing and distance control that you had to master with each character, and the relative strengths and weaknesses of each character.

lol this is funny because i used to play as well. the strongest characters were definitely guile and ryu. ken became weak when SFII Championship was released because his uppercut wouldn't knock the opponent to the ground. his helicopter kick, although faster, also lacked "flooring" power. if...

if you choose native and you modify 1 side of the OCA order, then you won't lose your place in line for the other order. correct?

are IB's OCA orders submitted to the exchange or are they simulated in their servers?
