spx dividend yield 1.5% ndx dividend yield 0%. Looks like the spx yields about a zillion times what the ndx does.

Just saw a note that naz is open and nyse will open in 30 minutes. that was a few minutes ago.

This is the fallacy of the pattern daytrading rule. Think what a great training ground the QQQ could be, if only you did not have to have 25K to play. You can position size, take partials, scale in, scale out - do it all with 5k, instead of having to take the equivalent of 800 shares at a time...

master of the subtle point-out.

I fell for it once. Fortunately just 100 shares. I said, jeez, what a dumbass, of myself. Then started posting a few of the same type offers myself. Never actually got a fill on one. Also put a postit on the monitor "look at the handle!"

what's a tech stock?

I suppose it's not really that easy, which is why the technical picture remains the best one to look at, even for long term investing. It's nonetheless a pretty interesting set of numbers. I just hope if we do see the s&p at 12 times trailing earnings, I have some dry long term (retirement)...

I hear it's derived from Papyrus and runs on an IBM XT.

Anyone using Tradestation auto execution? How's it going?

Time will tell. The trades are pretty infrequent, just 100+ trades in 22 months. This may be a good system to let TS execute automatically. I may look into that and start with experimental size. Is anyone using the automatic execution feature of Tradestation? How is it working?

I recall his first product being a live cattle system. Can't remember what it was called. He marketed a couple of other market specific systems before System Writer came out. I think the Omega name was there from the beginning.

he who? I've been getting junk mail from Bill Cruz since 1985. Anyone know what his first product was? (NOT Systemwriter.)

A bit of an exageration.... Tradestation 6 is driven by the guts of the old Window on Wallstreet Daytrader 7. Easy language is a nice feature, but the TS products before TS6 were crash prone pigs. TS6 would not exist without the acquisition of WOW by then Omega research. I think that prior...
