I'm trying to follow the discussion but am not sure if I understand your first statement. As the previous poster said, the MP display can show activity for a daily or hourly timeframe per TPO. Hence, when you make a composite that makes up a weekly chart, then your value area would be much...

I'm not sure how this would work. I get the audio feed and you can hear the gov't official counting down to the number, so I'm not sure how he is passing it to JED first. The countdown of the gov't employee coincides with the countdown on my computer clock with is accurate to 50 ms. Maybe you...

I didn't see your message before. Sorry for the late reply. I dealt with Christina directly. They have a 30 day notice policy which is not stated any where. Christina was out for a couple of weeks, but she was back when I wrote my message above. I must say that dealing with anyone from NTKN...

Wow... I just came across this thread. I give it to B1S2 for having the courage to provide his reasoning. I, however, cannot imagine ever knowing enough to figure out the "optimal target." That is a stretch and is pretty subjective since "optimal" can be 10% for one or 1000% for another. In...

Longhorns, It is ALL in how you use the news. For futures and numbers, the service is excellent. It is like any indicator, setup or tool, it is in how you use it and not the tool itself most often. I'm running a room and I'm very objective and critical of every service that gets my dime...

True. This is true for anything trading. It is there to give you a heads up. I don't trade off news except for economic releases or some geopolitical events. Blindly trading the news, not that you are doing this, is like taking an indicator and just trading its signals. It is a good a tool as...

This comment is no longer true. I have dropped NTKN and wanted to update the board.

As a follow up on my comments about NTKN as an audio news service, I want to state that have cancelled the service. It has deteriorated from the time I recommended it earlier in this thread. I am now using Trade The News again. They have new futures and credit/FX coverage by Greg who was the...

I want to go on record to say that I have cancelled NTKN and do not recommend them. Their service is beyond poor and their quality people have moved to Trade The News. If you want to subscribe to trade the news at a 30% discount, you can use coupon code MA0107. The credit/FX channel is what I...

I have dropped Need To Know News for billing, incompetence and other issues. The service is completely useless at this point. Greg Cox, the news reader who was with NTKN is now covering futures at Trade The News on the credit/FX channel. He is experienced and with his loss, NTKN became...

Any comments on the Fed report that housing prices "appear" to have bottomed? My gut tells me that they have been so hawkish that now they fear that there is too much fear in the market. Any thoughts from those of you who follow the sector? (Homebuilding stocks have been recovering a bit)

To Thom: The full version of QT is the same but you don't get the advertisements flashing all the time and you get update alerts. To Jimmie: IB = www.interactivebrokers.com I use Scottrade to take care of OTC and broker executed trades in mining and some foreign stocks. However, IB takes...

The won't be much out there that will beat IB with Quotetracker. You can even execute your trades from Quotetracker directly. I can't imagine that TD is going to give you better leverage or lower commissions than IB no matter what you trade. Good luck.

You need to ping your broker/clearer's server. That's the only part you have control over unless you change to another broker/clearer. Can you tell us where you are and who you clear thru? We can then help out.

Just make sure all the video cards use the same chipmaker. I prefer nVidia, but just stick to one maker so that you can use one driver to run all of them.

I think a key element of success has been missed here. The key words: Intent and Belief. So you might have two guys working hard every day side-by-side. One of them believes that life is a grind and that he will never get out of this shitty job and fulfill his idea of wealth, etc. The guy...

Brandon, How are you currently finding these? I actually bought Oracle a while back as well and still have 1/3 of my position in it for a free run. I was wondering how you are currently scanning for leaders. I have access to IBD and other services, but I thought you might have an effective way...

Set up and advisor account at Interactive Brokers. Nothing else needed.

I want to go on record to say that my prior comments on NTKN no longer apply. The service has deteriorated significantly and I'm in the process now of discussing the issues with senior management. If things don't get fixed soon, I feel the service is a disadvantage and will cancel. They have...

The only reason I look up at CNBC while it is on: Sorry... I couldn't help myself. :p
