I understand how to use $PREM with stocks. Does anyone trading the eminis use $PREM for buy/sell with the futures? Savage

Does anyone know if indicators like prem, vix, trin, tick are available in TWS for IB and if so, how do I access them??? Thanks, Savage

Does anyone no of a free website for equity options charts?? Thanks. Savage

I tend to believe that the market is more random than individual issues. I have been trading the emini recently and I would definately say that the emini behaves more randomly than most individual stocks. I am coming to believe more and more that I would be more successful trading stocks using...

Lundy, Did you come up with that yourself???

NO.....spread is 0.25pts on ES and 0.5pts on NQ. Savage

Nitro, Take a look at these GE prints. Everything is ticking within the spread and then some large prints well under the bid. How do you interpret that?? Price Bid Ask Volume 05/30/02 14:48:09 31.24 31.23 31.28 100.00 05/30/02...

for the rest of the year, what would it be and why? Savage

Does anyone know where I can get Option charts. Looking for daily & intraday charts on Stock Options. Would prefer a free site. Thanks, Savage

I've been looking at the daily range of the ES because i'm trying to find a way to trade it better. Here are my observations: Last 24 days(removing the largest range & the smallest range) Average daily range: 17pts Range is between 12-20pts 85% of the time Median is 16pts My...

Ditch, Futures only lead stocks to the degree that supply/demand will support. Lately, CSCO has been a better conformation to NQ moves than MSFT. I'm not trading today. No depth in the market the day befor a long holiday. Spent time with the family. Savage

You're right about the wiggles on the NQ. You can get shaken out pretty easily even if you're with the trend. There are a lot of short term countertrends with the NQ and at reversal points there usually is a period that will shake people out. The reason I have been trading the NQ is...

Sorry, Lundy. I'm not interested in having anyone follow me or trade based on my recommendations. I was merely pointing out to a fellow trader that there was lots of potential to make money on a choppy day. Sorry if you're looking for more but i have no interest in trading for other people...

Very good analysis 3dog! I wish you could have kept it quiet though. Now I'm going to have to look for another strategy! Savage :cool:

I just opened an account in Hong Kong Dollars with IB to trade the Hang Seng futures contract. Does anyone know how I can fund that here in the US. IB won't let me transfer US funds from my US account. Thanks, Savage

Well, guess i'm done trading for the day. There is a sell order stuck in TWS and it won't cancel and therefore I can't enter another sell order. Apparently, from talking to customer service, when I changed the limit price in TWS, and because Globex was down, TWS transmitted a limit order at...

My limit order was buy at 1295.5 and TWS executed a market order at 1300.00???????????

IB just executed a market order when I entered a buy limit order. I closed it out immediately for a 4 point loss. This is the first problem i've had with IB but I'm really pissed off to lose $$ when I didn't even make the damn trade. Savage :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

Not Good!
