Keep us posted on anything new Don. Thanks for the info we appreciate it.

Many other homebuilders daily charts look like hell now. Look at BZH and RYL too. Timber! :p

On this last up move from the lows at 1084.75 to 1121.75 close today. Looks like the whole sector is vulnerable to a big move down in the coming weeks ahead unless the SP500 makes a new high. New highs in the Bond market would be another thing to give this sector some support. But I'm...

Okay conversions are available w/ Assent. For example Stock xyz is trading at 100 : You buy 1,000 shares of xyz buy and in the money put at 110 say August (1,000) sell the out of money call at 110 Aug (1,000) I understand the postions and you are basically neutral w/...

Smallest increment in a currency price move. The euro goes from 1.2160 to 1.2168 it has moved 8 pips. Minis are $1/pip, regular contract is $10/pip.

I"m just getting started w/ forex. I know some people who had problems scalping forex as you described. The forex dealers don't like this at all. Can you tell me where they draw the line roughly between daytrading and scalping (unethical) trading styles. I have no idea if it is the number of...

Hey, I agree not the best of times for daytrading stocks imo. Don't see things improving soon but maybe they will. Anyway I'm starting to trade forex now as well so not so dependent on the stock market. If I had more funds I would swing trade stocks as well. Maybe you can consider trying...

I've been daytrading for almost 2 years now stocks only. I know there are still many people out there still making a great living daytrading stocks and futures but I know of many who have left stock daytrading in 2003. When I started in 2002 with very little experience I did very well and...

Clandestine, The FX brokers show prices they can't / won't fill many times and it is a joke at times. Wish they would widen the spread a little during volatile times instead. Plus their prices are whatever they want them to be = license to steal. Wonder how many here have tried to trade...

Called Assent yesterday and today. Someone will call me on Friday. Does anyone have any inside info on this? Wondering about the details.... :cool:

The tradestation instructions on hisbase.com are for 2000i. Are the instructions exactly the same for Tradestation 7.1 or 7.2? Thanks :cool:

http://www.pacificcoasttraders.com/ They offer hammer (Assent) and I believe ETG software as well. 10k should get you going...

I'll check it out. Hey shellback thanks for your informative post it really helped :D

Anyone used hisbase.com? Found on the internet and did a search on ET but nobody has mention it. Certainly reasonably priced. Would like to do some research but don't want to pay a bunch of $ for data. Can anyone recommend any other places to look that isn't expensive. :cool:

At least that is what I was told. He wouldn't give me any details whatsoever. So not much info but news will be out next week, Weds supposedly. We will see if this is worthwile or not. Maybe will be too expensive who knows. I haven't had any problems per se with Assent but I haven't...

Called Assent and they said no conversions but will have a new product out next week Weds or so. Already approved by their compliance dept. I'll post more when I know more....

Anyone have any info on this? I see other firms being mentioned with conversions but not Assent. Any info on this and the costs would be appreciated.

My advice is pick 2 or 3 sectors. Find your favorite two in those sectors and trade those. Some days one sector will be dead and the other moves and vice versa. I prefer sectors where the stocks are highly correlated with stocks within that sector and the futures as well. For example, the...

Tough times for prop firms. Volume is way way down at my firm. We just had a trader quit with 3 yrs experience and now there are only 2 traders left in our office doing significant volume averaging over 40k per day. I think the last thing I would do right now is open up my own trading...
