I saw this site called www.tradelogically.com where people help each other with code and such. Maybe worth asking someone there as it seems to have a few programmers on board. RG

Also you should know that if you post on twitter and put $$ at the end, it would go to stocktwits directly. As oppose to twitter where you could eliminate your twits, if you $$ in the end your twits on stocktwits stay forever. They do that because they want to track performance without...

Does your product have an API access to stream live data? From what I saw CSI is end of day data only. RG

Very useful info now that I am transiting or trying to fully automated system.

They used to be really good, but they went retail type promo all the way by hooking up with other retail educators to present together. They had a show with some Kid who looked like 15 on Stocktwits...he was talking about Bollinger and Divergence. This is what I need a prop shop for?

$3,500 is 5% of the notional value of the ES. It's hard to grow that account if at all. Consider a drawdown of 2.5% of the notional value and you are wiped even trading a one lot.

You missing the point. The small margin brokers take is to attract smaller guys who dont know how to trade so they do gazillion traders, this is not meant to help the guy who has some sense and wants to trade. This is a whole new thread in itself.

Thank you EMG and Trader123. Amazing how fast some brokers has buried these few good words Lets go for another round boys

I highly suggest that when you guys choose a platform/broker, ask the following "What backend do you use to manage the risk and are my trades visible to you when I place them?" What you are looking for is a broker that has IMMEDIATE access to your trades on his end and he can see immediately...

I was able to get longer time period on Rithmic. Granted, Kinetick is a purer data but for my purposes it's good.

I am talking about execution and latency. Vendors who sell their system have nothing to do with what I said. C2 could have a vendor that is executing from home to a server and the server sends it to your brokerage account. This can amount to used slippage where day trading programs could...

Thank you! I do trade via Rithmic.

If I had an automated system I would not run it via a server, better to give it as a protected code to a reliable broker to execute in house.

Like CashKing said, just give Matt a buzz. He is not a phone "hustler" and he will help you out while walking you through every platform and its costs, well...at least he did that with me. :)

I sat down this week with a friend while trying to help him with trading. He is making the same classical mistakes that I used to do when I started trading, in fact, I took a few days off trading to help him out. I remember those sick to the stomach days that I did not know why I even got into...

You started from the premise that Matthew is not interested in helping you out, but did you think for a minute about the clientele of the site? $200K? This is not something that he can easily help you out with. Most of the guys there are small accounts, who must be looking for something...

DTN/IQ is not a feed you can trade on, correct? or can you?

SierraChart and Rithmic are connecting now. I Think they have added this feature recently. http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/Rithmic.php

I always follow blogs, twits of independent retail brokers. Maybe this video that came out lately will help you decide on platform and prices. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pz7uFBoDg4w

They are good guys and very professional. Once I spoke to their head broker (ken) and he was extremely knowledgeable as far as platform choices.
