Stops will help 99,9% of the time in liquid markets, but every once in a while, you have a sudden shift, a shock in a market, which makes the market change or gap so quickly that there just wont be a market near your placed stop level, there will just be pockets of air and the market gone...

You cannot protect against everything in life. What you can do: - Use a good and reliable broker - have a backup broker - have backup power supply/ UPS - have backup internet - know what you are doing - do not overleverage Besides that, there is not too much you can do, so dont worry too much.

Sierra Charts with CQG worked perfectly for me, for many years. My favourite platform, by far.

It doesnt matter if the end result of your learning process is a system, skills, a healthy body, driving skills... But if you did it your own way, if you are the engineer behind your success, it will be so much harder to take it away again from you. You will not only have results, but you will...

Do this, do that. You have to do this. You must not do that. I started trading years ago to become more free. Where is the fun in your activity when you just follow an endless string of self-imposed external rules ? How long can you follow such a dictatorship of your life ? It is ok to follow...

Are the BTC futures now part of your arbitrage trading ?

Check your emails man ! :D

I understand your perspective, you want to fully use a product you have paid for, with all features. But if you want to trade crypto, wouldnt it be much easier and rational to do this with a broker who actually offers these kind of products, and not with a broker who explicitly offers only...

I know for sure it is a good time to watch NFLX.

Yeah, everybody knows and loves Dorling !

Service sucks ? I had some of the most helpful and fastest service with AMP support. I guess one of the problems with AMP is that they attract many of the beginning traders, because of the very low entry barriers they offer. As a consequence they probably get flooded with the most basic and...

I had good experience in the past with AMP, and Sierra Chart is still my favourit platform. But you shouldnt use it with Rithmic anymore: https://www.sierrachart.com/SupportBoard.php?ThreadID=51595 "The state of Rithmic is as is and will be removed effective December 31, 2020, from Sierra...

They still are. In this CFTC report you can find all the FCMs in the USA: https://www.cftc.gov/sites/default/files/2020-07/01- FCM Webpage Update - July 2020.pdf And find information about their most important financial data (customers assets, capital requirements, excess net capital ... ).

Ok, jokes aside, now some serious input from me: an introducing broker pools activities from its clients and can therefore negotiate better rates for them, often much better than what an individual client with low volume could expect. In addition, they offer some handholding and service that...

I mean Interactive Brokers, of course. But they also have introducing brokers, IB. So everything is right, I guess.
