    ProActive Futures?

    Link didnt work. But I went and searched for the firm manually and the 2 complaints came up. Seems like some people dropped the ball administratively.

    Futures trading + Zen-Fire + direct pit access

    Try hiring a programmer that will build a bridge to export the trading signals into qualifying broker's api. or try re-programming the strategy into another trading language. I'm sure you have the funds to make this happen, although it may take a few weeks or few months to see it finish.

    tradertech intermarket analysis software....

    I was dusting off some things in my garage and noticed this software that i bought years ago. I paid almost $6k for it, and i don't think it was worth it after the fact. Perhaps I was using it wrong or something. but that's in the past. best offers considered. I waiting to hear back from...

    Multi-chart Ripping Off Tradestation

    not sure if it is worth it to add my 2 cents here. Multicharts has a programming language called PowerLanguage. They advertise that it is compatible with EasyLanguage. But they are two separate programming languages. Is this any different than openoffice or Apple iWork being able to...

    Multicharts User Thread

    Really. I thought lifetime license was supposed to be for all future upgrades? They are going to stop supporting this version? and essentially start a new So I guess it is safe to assume that this product was just to get TS Support on the map. There will be a "Part 2" to Multicharts? Like...

    Multicharts - Anything else I should know ?

    MC can do what Sierra Charts has done. In ADDITION to providing connectivity to the third-party datafeeds, you could also setup your own data collection servers of popular markets. This could be included for 1 full year and then perhaps $100 a year. Or even better, free with lifetime license...

    Are IB accounts protected from fraud and unauthorized access?

    http://www.thestreet.com/markets/hedgefunds/10249291.html After taking a look at the article, it appears that the funds were not placed in the correct acct. Jim Roger's fund money was placed under Refco Capital Markets, NOT in segregated accts. Jim seems to be trying to make the...

    Are IB accounts protected from fraud and unauthorized access?

    I was speaking to a broker at infinity futures about 2 weeks ago who used to be an introducing brokerage for Refco. I mentioned the Refco incident and he said that when Refco went under, ALL of his clients were transferred over to his other IB connections (mostly Collins). The transfer...

    Tweaking windows XP to get the most out of your trading software....

    Actually, very little is in the startup msconfig. I've checked this already. Not a whole lot was even installed on that computer, as it is used primarily for trading.

    Tweaking windows XP to get the most out of your trading software....

    More than likely because they have a firewall setup and they never use the computer for anything else other than trading and perhaps surfing trusted news sites.

    Tweaking windows XP to get the most out of your trading software....

    When I first started using a platform called NeoTicker, I noticed that it would take a lot of resources and use a lot of CPU processing after having only a few charts opened. There would be all kinds of conflicts with the OpenEcry OEC trader platform as well. Then NT admin sent me over to this...

    Are IB accounts protected from fraud and unauthorized access?

    Well, I was speaking to a broker about the Refco incident and he said that all of his customer's funds were easily transferred in the matter of about 1-3 business days to another brokerage. Now the issue of fraud (as in fraud committed by the brokerage against the client?), I'm not sure. You...

    IB not going to give NYBOT access...!?

    IQ feed also told me that summer, 2007 NYBOT was lowering their exchange fee for RT data. $99 was ridiculous.

    4 monitors on laptop - is it possible?

    Yes, I have one. It is dark, but you get the point. But since then, I migrated over to my desktop that had a dual 128mb graphics card. So this way, I connected 1 screen into video card input A, and then the other 3 screens >> triplehead2go >> video card input B. A total of 4 monitors...

    Laptop and wireless router

    I use a Netgear wgt624 super g router. But I noticed that my wireless connection would drop every so often. So I didn't take any chances for my trading and used hard-wire ethernet connections. I never had a problem since. So all of those on a wireless connection that is working so...

    Is fully automated trading a fantasy? Your opinions here

    Yep. I would definetly have to learn to program to really take advantage of even building custom indicators. What programming language do you recommend? Yes. It is weird how a few big winners can give you a big head. But I've learned not to allow that to happen. Because you can lose it...

    Looking for advice on European futures trading

    OpenEcry actually has those already. So does transact. I've looked at global and am demoing their platform now. Global has the FTSE and CAC40 and they actually have good day trading margins. But strategy runner doesn't have the best trading ladder (or platform) I've seen. At least not...

    Looking for advice on European futures trading

    Wondering if anyone else can comment on the brokerages that they are using. It seems hard to get a good brokerage that has all of the foreign markets you want to trade AND a decent trading platform/ladder AND decent commission AND low Day Trading Margins.

    South Florida--WORLD WIDE FRAUD CAPITAL

    Thanks for the insight guys. I'm in Northern Fla myself. I do find it funny that people talk about these fraud crimes as if it cannot happen right in their own backyard.
