Excellent Post indeed....a question or two for you. My definition of the break price for a cup pattern is the high of the left side of the cup....so I would not be entering on a lower high right side of cup anyway. Am I misinterpreting your point here? Yes indeed great point. However...

With the Reserve order, only the "displayed" volume is actually "live" at any given time. WIth a Hidden order it is all live, its just that no one else can see it. EG A Sell ARCA Reserve 2000 share order with a 300 share display would result in 300 shares being offered, and as soon as it was...

I have found Point Direx to be extremely reliable considering the internet version of the software is relatively new (November). Previously the software was written for Direct connections only (eg trading on a floor) as Point Direx has historically been a proprietary trading firm. I can tell...

I have never come across anything in RealTick that let's me hide my orders with ARCA and you would think that if any one could it would be RealTick users. I can do reserve orders that let me hide my true total volume but that is obviously not a hidden order. Come to think of it, I cannot...

To which I do not know the answer. My guess is no but I will ask some people I know who may. I may be wrong on this as well but ISLD is the only ECN I know of that has hidden orders.

I also trade with PointDirex and am already using their 4.13 platform. Better still, their Platinum platform is rolling out next week I believe (or sometime very soon) and has some major feature enhancements over 4.13. As I have stated before, the executions and order entry capabilites are...

You mean .7 cents I assume? Do you know anything about Sonic Trading...they are right near Wall St. I think they are mostly Nasdaq traders but they have an awesome order entry platform and definitely have some big traders.

Qwik, Interesting point. In theory I understand what you are saying but I am not sure if it is true, and if it is I have never been able to confirm how/when this would happen with Arca or Redi (and I have tried). In Rickboys example, considering the other matching offer was already in when...

Pablo/Paul that is too funny. I should be able to do another WEBX demo of the Point Direx platform tomorrow or Monday...only this time I will be doing it on the Platinum product. For anywone else who wants to take a peak, I was playing around with a software where I can transmit my trading...

OK In order: Paul-with the Pro 4.13 version the page layout is fixed. THe platinum is scheduled for release this week and I have beta tested it. It is awesome and is more windows like in that you can move everything around (l2 boxes etc.) Having said that, I was talking with another PD...

This guy is talking about the Dentist who buys a stock on his etrade account while pulling teeth....yeah thats a daytrader. Then he says so smartly to leave it to the pros, but if you insist on doing it then..... "Use time-tested methods, such as earnings, the leadership of the company in...

You seem to be disciplined enough in taking stops. I think you are right in that the size is hurting you combined with very short term set ups with high probability for failure. I trade the same way and the problem is, you have to be willing to keep pulling the trigger, sometimes after several...

Only if there were no other offers between the actual price you meant to enter and the one you did by mistake. If there was (and there likely would be in any active stock) then you would obviously get price improvement as discussed.

Fast!! (just wanted to get a few extra posts up on you :)

Very, Very

Yes

Though I think Trader555 was correct in relation to Vinnys scenario, this might not be the case always. Vinny you were right on in your speculation on how ISLD handles the order. You asked what would happen with an inside market of 50.00 by 50.01 with 1000 shares offered via ISLD and then you...

Ouch...should we assume that the moving truck is on the way? :)
