    say goodbye to IB TWS flashing red bar?

    Great. That flashing red bar is annoying, especially recently with problems across different exchanges. It would be great however, if you could configure it to flash only for a specified exchange. If you read this Def, could you pass on this request to the programmers.

    CME or Globex

    The rollover to the March contract was last week. Use Globex in TWS.

    Kept It Simple - Is This Something??

    One thing I find with this kind of method, ie. tightening your stop the way you mentioned, is that your stop is going to get hit a lot on a natural backfill on the ES. There is nothing more frustrating than panicking out of a trade on a backfill. Instead, you may want to experiment with having...

    Simplicity Rules!!

    I come to this thread to make a public apology to my cat, Arlo. I was sitting at my desk here this morning, trading as usual, and I got this strong whiff of shit. Well, there are only 2 creatures in my apartment at that time of the day. So, after having pulled down my pants to check that I...

    V-reversal

    One way to trade it would have been on the break of 917.25 after it paused at 917.25, retraced to 918.25 on light volume and broke down again. You could take this with a tight stop at 918.50. (I would have preferred a stronger retrace back towards the high however).Of course, all this is in...

    Anything better than esignal?

    I have had the same problem with Nextrend over the last week or so. Data is 2-3 seconds behind IB and the T&S for the emini's is very jumpy. Looks as if it may be a globex problem. Nextrend haven't responded to my emails to let me know where the problem is. Seems to be at it's worst from 9:30am...

    FFASTFILL Lower than IB??

    You only need to enter the first 2 letters. After you type in the 2 letters (YM), press enter, click on Future/Dec/2002. It's the same for ES and NQ. The TWS interface is very easy to use after you get used to it, (which won't take long).:)

    Corallus' ES Journal - December

    I completely agree. Yesterday before the market opened I had a burning desire that I 'had' to make money, similar to your feeling that you 'had' to make some back. Having had this feeling before and recognizing that it is normally followed by a bad day, and not wanting to walk away from the...

    Discipline

    I'm a bit confused here. On a previous thread you said that you used a system that provided 10 pts a day, yet here you are saying that the only way you can trade is by following a site's calls. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=163191#post163191 :eek: :confused:

    Yet another easy 5 pts

    Wally, why not silence the naysayers by posting a trade as you take the entry rather than in retrospect. All it will take is 1 trade to shut most people up.

    Please help

    I'm not sure what OS you're using but I had a similar problem with IE and Windows NT4. I upgraded to NT service pack 6 from service pack 5 and it fixed the problem. Not sure if this will help you though.
