    Larry Williams arrested in Sydney for tax evasion

    What do you mean by "physical evidence"? Eyeball visuals? I was fortunate enough to spend time with LBR and the 5 days I was with her, she was net positive every day. 4-5 figures. Each day. Trading Big SP contract. 5 days does not a endorsement make but at least Linda trades. More than a...

    Whats the best platform for ES trading?

    Entering the wild world of futures, you want to keep your costs low, and account equity high because the learning tuition is expensive. Esignal is expensive. But a option to consider. However since IB is your broker and you need TA/charts etc, why not consider Quotetracker, which can...

    Still in College - Any Advice

    1) Finish school. Only 22% of the US population has a 4 year degree. In the coming years as more and more of the middle class is squeezed into oblivion, college degrees will be not a golden key like it used to be, but your application will be round filed without. Grim times ahead. 2) Think...

    whats the best stock screener you guys ever used !!!

    Try Msn screener. Deluxe version. Not the basic one. Most of the FA you want. Eod though. For a true real time scanner that can do it all TA and FA you need to shell out big cash. Only Insight and First Alert can do everything you want. Or a Whisper reseller who is willing to code...

    Maxed out credit card.

    Doesn't anyone save $ anymore? Then again with Bush/Fed turning the greenback to confetti, why bother right? Wrong. Im not opposed to cash advance financing anymore than I would be to fighting Mike Tyson in his prime for whatever dollars the fighter who would soon become hamburger was...

    Dow Mini

    Yes, that was one of reasons I let Aspen go. The latency switching symbols was maddening. Unacceptable frankly. And their multiple session pricing is a gouge. Good luck with PX. I use DTN data for backup and 99% of the time its print for print with CQG.

    RefcoLive Powered by CQG

    Dont trade with Refco, but its CQGtrader which works with many brokers. http://cqg.com/default.aspx?PageId=1144&LanguageId=1000 Software + order entry. Fast. Rock solid. Expensive. Limited futures exchanges. No equities. Not quite as good as Xtrader. Close. Call Mike at CQG at bug...

    What will you do if you don't succeed in trading?

    Anon, Have you ever asked out a hot woman? More than one? They all said yes? Dont crave surety in a world that gives none. RISK... pays. If that fails you always have your hand right? If that is your mentality you'll never survive. It took me 7 years to make what I was...

    Non-repeating alerts

    Toonces, Do you have TradeIdeas? If you have TI and you are looking for criteria like in your first post, then look no further. Simply use the min/max counts as DT suggested. It really is a very powerful filter. In your example... You can set min count to 1 for a new intraday...

    Non-repeating alerts

    Consolidate feature will also work to omit repeats if you use TI in conjunction with QT. Which is exactly what I do. Works fine. Otherwise you can omit in Insight, and I think RadarScreen but not certain. I can double check.

    IB , when ya gonna add pre and after hours backfill?

    Stock, Im certain you've thought of this, but if you have a Ameritrade account, switch data source via Menu button and configure a portfolio for just premarket data. You should be able to get a quote/and or pull up premarket chart. Just make certain not to have same symbol in 2...

    Setting up a US Bank account through a Nevada Corporation

    Daal, if illegal immigrants from Mexico can open a bank account without SS#, DL# in California at Bank of America or Wells Fargo in less than 10 minutes, you dont need a Corp in Nevada. If you have significant cash, call Citibank private banking (New York). They'll take care of you.

    Setting up a US Bank account through a Nevada Corporation

    I agree with Dr. Z Exactly what are you trying to accomplish? If you are a non citizen/resident. Delaware is superior to Nevada for asset protection. But that is another story. If you are a U.S citizen, move to another state, or expatriate. There is only one way I know of to live...

    Recommendations for Best Trading Platform?

    Spyguy. There is no "best". The best software/platform is the one you know how to use. That takes time. It's a very subjective thing to address personal preference. A capable trader should be able to trade using a pencil and a EOD quote source. Still, never look a technology gift...

    Tax cuts for the rich passes again

    Exactly right. What's even more amusing is that there was no fed tax till Lincoln put it in to pay for the Civil War. 5% on people earning 50k+ How did the nation survive? The system we have now did not start until 1913, same year The FED was created. Interesting. Fact is, (go to...
