I'm using a broadband connection with 5000 Kbit/s. Now I'm looking for a cheap backup connection. The cheapest solution (no monthly fee, only pay as you use) I found is 300 Kbit/s. Is this sufficient? In an emergency case I only need a connection to InteractiveBrokers (using TWS, Quotetracker...

Hamrawein (Max, initiator of this thread) and I had an e.mail conversation about a meeting in Zurich (restaurant "terrasse"). We actually fixed some dates for Nov. and Dec. but unfortunately we didn't manage to get more than 2 or 3 of us together. Now it's x.mas time and everbody is busy. So...

what's that? Never heard of... Any link?

Dear Swiss traders, unfortunately we didn't manage to meet this year. Nevertheless I'm still interested in bringing together some ET traders from Switzerland. It would be great to have a little appointment in 2009 for a beer etc. Therefore it would be nice if all traders from...

Is anyone trading FX futures Thursday and Friday? How's volume usually then? :confused:

From my understanding, Jirvats method shoots for small scalps (10 pips...) whereas Anek tries to stay in the trade until the trend is over, i.e. until a conflicting swing (HigherHigh -> HigherHigh -> LowerHigh) is made... Both methods base on price/wave analysis...

Indeed a very interesting view is presented by Mr. Taleb in this book... http://www.amazon.com/Fooled-Randomness-Hidden-Chance-Markets/dp/1400067936/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1227546414&sr=8-1 I am currently reading it. It claims that sometimes luck is confused with skill etc...

what is your point?!

works fine here...

I'm not sure right now but I thought you could change that in "preferences -> miscellaneous"...

oh yes I forgot, that's an important difference, pbb is pointing out...

nothing special, all information is on their website. I (Swiss) opened an advisor account some months ago. You need the usual documents (proof of address, proof of identity etc.) for you and the clients...

I also use ZLT for a while now. Before ZLT I used IB's booktrader. ZLT has more capacity (advanced strategies etc.) and it's generally a nice software... What didn't work for you? I had also some problems but Hong Ji solved them quite fast - support is great, price too...

QUOTETRACKER will solve all your problems... IB charts are useless...

Hmm... you are right, it's 1.98$ on the statement but I'm sure it was 1£ on IB's website... so they converted the fee in the statement. I deleted all messages but a IB representative told me once, that I should have some GBP in my account to pay the fees... :p

no, half a year ago or so it was definitely charged in £. I know it because I wondered and asked a rep. and they told me it's correct but they will change to $ in the near future...

I'm trading 6E all day long, besides instruments like NQ, ES etc. it's great too for very short term trading strategies/scalping... But be aware, that liquidity is low @european hours (If that's a matter for you). As an european trader I was looking for a nice instrument I can trade in the...
