    Remote Viewing & Trading

    Yes, I think there is enough interest (2000+ page views in a day!) to make it stay relevant to trading. If you restart as your personal journal at least you can have some control over the topic. Whether this is a successful way to trade remains to be seen but it is a valid topic that most...

    Remote Viewing & Trading

    The Bible also says don't eat shellfish (Leviticus 11:9-12), don't wear clothes woven from both wool and linen (Deuteronomy 22:11) or that it is ok to stone your daughter to death if she isn't a virgin before marriage (Deuteronomy 22:20-21). I try not to take these things to literally ya know...

    Remote Viewing & Trading

    Caution is wise but let's separate leaving your body temporarily from 'witchcraft'. I have news for you, you leave your body every night when you sleep you just aren't conscious of it. I don't believe there is anything inherently dangerous with remote viewing or OBE's. It is all in how you use...

    Remote Viewing & Trading

    I suggest your read a book called Journeys out of the Body by Robert A. Monroe. Monroe presents a very lucid and clearly documented account of what he experienced after he accidentally started having out of body experiences. He spent over thirty plus years having Out of Body Experiences...

    Remote Viewing & Trading

    Please share your experience with Remote Viewing that backs up your claims otherwise you are only speculating and spreading fear. I've stopped believing in Satan. The closest thing there is to the make believe figure of Satan/Devil as a universal tormentor is the Human Ego, it's depths are...

    Cold (aka c-kid) is the resident expert on Remote reviewing. Also, watch that George Clooney movie about Staring at Goats. If you still think this is a good strategy to base your trading around let us know.

    What's the best brokeage for doing ATS at retail level? IB?

    IB is a good broker but for still inexplicable reasons is not the ideal platform for an ATS. The unfortunate thing is that they easily could be with some small administrative changes: 1) The main hurdle is having TWS stay connected to a market feed uninterrupted Sun - Fri. No matter what...

    IB TWS security token asked after disconnection

    I think the important point is that it can be minimized or negated by IB in their software with a change in how and when it asks for the token and building in some kind of tolerance for network issues. The software doesn't seem to be able to distinguish a temporary network issue versus when...

    IB TWS security token asked after disconnection

    There is even a worse issue here that hasn't even been mentioned. I have had times where TWS has popped up the security token login and is in what is commonly referred to as the "Pink" screen where all of the grid lines are bright pink. During this period it is still possible to have orders sent...

    IB TWS security token asked after disconnection

    This is definitely a known issue for automated trading and IB. Not much you can do about it but babysit the connection with Tws. I have tried to raise this issue directly with IB but it has gone nowhere and no one even can explain why the regular disconnects even at midnight are still necessary...

    Anyone pulling money out of MF Global?

    "Our clearinghouse did a fantastic job around this," he said. Delusional much?

    Interactive Brokers TWS Bug Thread

    I had four charts (two 15sec, 1hour and 5min) up and running all day today and did not see any problems or slow performance. I added studies, lines, etc and it seemed to work fine. This was under Fedora and TWS v918 for reference.

    Interactive Brokers TWS Bug Thread

    Try another version like Xubuntu 11.04 or even Ubuntu 10.04. It is probably not best to be on the bleeding edge with Ubuntu versions nowadays. I've not had problems with either of these and Ubuntu 10.04 is a long-term support release. Also, Fedora is a nice alternative as well. I just tried...

    IB loses $28 million buying MF Global Stock

    What is the big deal? IB almost dropped several *hundred* million buying MF Global but were the first to detect that something was rotten. He had been working for years to do a deal with MF Global and acquiring the common stock was part of his strategy apparently. Be glad that you have an...

    Interactive Brokers TWS Bug Thread

    I've run TWS in 11.10 for awhile (even in Unity) and it seems to work fine. I don't do much in the way of charting with TWS though. You may try Xubuntu 11.10. I've used it since 11.04 when Unity first appeared as the default desktop and it is great. I would not consider going back to GNOME or...

    Turtle Trading... Thoughts?

    I think it is probably the other way around. It goes in style and then profitability becomes greatly diminished or unprofitable altogether. Eventually it goes out of style and becomes profitable again. The trick is knowing which cycle you are in and not giving back your profits when it changes...
