    Don's openings Part 3

    any adjustments to the opening? widening the envelope obviously. i guess the risk is that all those retail people are waiting to see where it opens before selling. OO orders are either going to make a ton of money today or get crushed. probably not going to get fills on the short side due...

    Don's openings Part 3

    great job everybody. friday was one of my first few days with this strategy, and i cancelled all orders when i saw futures 7 points below from where i entered the orders, and didn't have enough time to reenter. obviously, i'm not thrilled. guess there will be other opportunities.

    Don's openings Part 3

    sorry for asking a question that has been answered so many times, but all of the answers vary. on the envelope - say a conservative one at 0.80% - this means add 0.80% to the fair value price and subtract 0.80% from the fair value price, correct?????? not 0.40% on both sides? the reason i'm...

    Don's openings Part 3

    opening indications: well, i would've had one fill today, but i increased the short side of the envelope to the upper half after i saw it indicating higher. i did not get filled, and had i let the original order alone, it would've been about a quarter point winner. i think i did the...

    Don's openings Part 3

    i want to thank don for his contribution. are there times when you get filled all long and all short? is this the norm? when i went back and checked out some stocks, there was one day where i would've gotten 7 fills (out of 15 stocks) - all shorts, and another day where i would've gotten 4...

    Self Clearing and Pricing

    don, we differ in what each of us mean by 'updated versions.' when i think of an update, i think of new features. when you think of an update, you think of bugs being fixed, which you don't see, but have been done. while we're discussing redi+, and you have clout with slk, would you mind...

    Self Clearing and Pricing

    though many people give you a hard time, you're posts have never bothered all that much me before. you are trying to run a business, so you post teasers to get people to come to bright. that's fine, and i can respect that. but, when you flat out lie to make bright look better than it is, it's...

    intraday scanners & tony oz criteria

    thanks for your response. i've checked out the neovest website in the past, but it doesn't provide much detail on the type of filtering available. are you saying that you can set your own criteria for a bid stepping up, say identical bids > 3000 on the bid at a higher level twice in the last 5...

    intraday scanners & tony oz criteria

    looking for an intraday scanner that will scan for tony's set ups. i know realtick does it automatically, which is great, but i'd hate to pay the real tick data price if that's all i get out of it. some added flexibility would be great. also, a long shot i know, wondering if there is a...

    i'm a new trader that traded briefly at a prop firm which traded nasdaq stocks exclusively, and now i trade at a different firm, and am looking to trade NYSE stocks - simply because they are slower. however, there are several things that are horribly wrong with the NYSE, not including the lack...

    My Investment Idea for 2002

    market is vulnerable due to the complacency that has crept into the market as evidenced by the low vix reading, which is at levels not seen since early september. however, imo, your trade will show a profit by year end, after suffering some malaise in the near term. the correction will begin...
