    Anybody making any real $$$???

    I think the comparison is fair. If we look at the first comeback era Jordan (age 36ish?), he wasn't good because he was faster than everyone, or taller, or could jump the highest. There were probably college players who were faster, bigger, stronger, and even had a better shot. I would say he...

    wierd navigation problem

    It's still acting strange. It seems to be every thread in the trading forum, which also is every page with the animated Tradestation ad. It might have something to do with the way the ad replays. Just a thought. -Johnny

    NexTrend Charting Software

    I haven't had any problems with the new beta yet. i do like that it saves the time scale, and the candle outline can be turned on and off. I just noticed you can look at time and sales for a couple of months back. Does anyone know a way to export this to a text file, or get it out any other...

    IB PD AND Legend securities

    Man you're paranoid. And not very observant. The quote should be: He's pumping Terranova and Realtick if anything (but I don't think so). I have no idea (and don't get the impression cartm does either) what platform Legend uses. Disclosure: I know absolutely nothing about TN, PD or...

    wierd navigation problem

    Baron, When I go to some of the threads from the forums page, it loads for a second, and then immediately goes back to the forums page. It doesn't happen on every thread. It does for sure on Hitman's and a few others. Is it just me? Johnny

    itemized deductions

    I went through most of the links, and couldn't find it. I know i've read that self-employment tax doesn't apply, but I can't remeber where. I would like to hear from someone who has (or hasn't) paid it as a trader (this is my first year doing taxes as a trader). Banjo--Where are you getting...

    itemized deductions

    I don't think it's quite the same as self employment, is it? I don't think you have to pay self-employment tax. If I'm wrong here, someone please let me know before Monday (when I'm sending in my MTM election). Thanks, Johnny

    mark to market election

    I am considering joining a prop firm soon. I was planning on electing Mark-to Market and have my letter ready to send with my extension, but now I am not sure. Do prop traders use mtm or not? Would it hurt? Thanks (and please hurry if you have an answer!), Johnny

    April Trading Journals

    Hitman, Why didn't someone quietly sit next to and trade against him with size? If he continued at that rate, you'd be getting a pretty decent 7 cents/share after commissions. Trade your usual 10k-15k shares... Just a thought, Johnny

    Intraday/Swing Plays

    Seanote- (or anyone else) Sorry if this question doesn't fit in your thread, but I wanted an opinion from someone much more experienced than myself. What is going on in the last half hour (1:30-) in the Semi and SANS Nasdaq stocks? Is this just a short squeeze that is going to get sold into...

    Tuna, Thanks for the e-mail. I haven't received any response to my e-mails to them (2). Usually they have been pretty good about replying. -Johnny

    IB Routing/Quotes

    My IB quotes are updating about every 3-4 seconds. Routing through BEST seems to be about as slow, missing fills, cancels take 10 seconds or so to confirm... -Johnny

    QQL, NexTrend, or what?

    Nextrend with IB works for me. There are a few quirks to get used to, but the datafeed is pretty solid and I actually like the charts, once I got used to them. However, they just released a new version I'm having some problems with, so we'll see how they handle that. I have never used...

    NexTrend Charting Software

    Okay, I rebuilt my pages (6 of them with 16 charts/level2/etc. per page). As I was rebuilding them I came up with some new ideas, so I changed them and used four of them to trade with today. It worked good all day. After the market closed, I exited and did some other work. A little while...

    NexTrend Charting Software

    I was using candle charts. Your error message is different, though. Was it by chance crashing on pages on which you made data corrections? I am not positive, but that may be a common difference in my pages that were corrupted and those that weren't. I can't be positive because I don't...

    NexTrend Charting Software

    Is this what happened to you? Three of my pages give me this error message when I try to open them: "An error occurred in the chart applet on page unknown. You should save your work and restart Nextrend Analysis." Click "OK" and Nextrend immediately closes. At least I waited until after...

    Intraday/Swing Plays

    Seanote-- If you don't mind my asking, what was your stop on this trade? I didn't see any resistance until 51.5/52.5 if the high of the morning didn't hold. When it looked like it could break out at 2:15 or so with the volume picking up...I just couldn't have held through it. Thanks--I...

    NexTrend Charting Software

    Version 3.2 was released a day or two ago. Anyone install it yet? Any problems? Did you uninstall the old version or just install over it? -Hoping someone else is the guinea pig,:D Johnny
