    Cancel/replace trading systems : number of instruments?

    Well, say you want to trade 10 lots. What you can do it bid and offer 1, and if you get filled then have your program take 9 more at presumably the same price. That way if you get disconnected you'll only have 1 lot sitting out there. And by the time you're trading 10 you won't really care about...

    How much capital required to generate $200/day pair trading?

    I hate sounding like a jerk but im getting tired of seeing you spam your C2 page here..... Shouldn't a successful pairs system always make money regardless of which way the market goes? That's one of the benefits of trading pairs, no? And shouldn't "scalping" systems make money during...

    Make no mistake...Swing Trading is where its at...

    You've been trading 4 years huh. Take a coin and flip it 48 times. You're bound to land heads 3 consecutive times sometimes. My mom has been swing trading for 3 months too. She's up 100% with no leverage. Can she trade? Hell no.

    Looking to trade off a Laptop while traveling

    What kind of traveling are you doing? In a month I'll be backpacking across Asia/Europe/Africa/SA for the next year or so and I'll be trading as much as I can during that time.

    30 inch DELL and what video card to use so STERLING won't lag???

    Is it because you have more things loaded in your layout now that you have more room? Level2 windows can contribute a lot to lag if you have lots of them (4+). If you have stock lists, each symbol you enter updates with every tick so the more you have the worse it can be. What are your...

    How little capital could you make a living off?? ;)

    You do realize that a lot of people made money during that time right? That doesn't necessarily mean they're good traders. Everybody at my firm made money then even the 1 month old trainees. Actually, I don't know a single person who didn't make money day trading then at my firm and others. But...

    ECN Rates

    For stop market orders, what do you guys think is the best way to route to reduce slippage? For both thin and thick stocks. Were you saying that black boxes can cancel on ECNs during market orders? I'm currently averaging 0.00547 per share of slippage on average order size of 1000 on all...

    Is it time to buy a house?

    I'd like to know too. Especially in the Toronto area. I don't trust what real estate agents tell me. Of course they want me to buy! I'm looking to live, not as an investment. But I definitely don't want it going down in value much further.
