    IB TWS , only one setting for Time and sales?

    Maybe true. But people who profit based on T&S data are not going to be getting it from IB. It's only a bug for poor retail.

    TastyTrade Method

    If the Efficient market hypothesis was true then you couldn't make money selling premium or using any of the TT strategies! The whole show would be a waste of time. Sosnoff needs to check his premise when advocating for the Efficient market hypothesis. I remember a few years ago they had some...

    Large dark pool prints

    Looking at the order clarification, most of these "block trades" look like hedged options positions. Real-time data costs more, that's probably why they are only reporting EOD. When you signed up to HFT Alert, what was the data feed you had to sign up for?

    Large dark pool prints

    Name a good data provider? My broker is IB, so I wouldn't' count on them. Does https://squeezemetrics.com report DP trades within moments?

    Large dark pool prints

    But aren't dark pool trades usually reported to the SIP at EOD or 24hr later? What data provider reports these trades intraday? I would have hoped that HFTAlert.com was using direct feeds. I see Stephanie Kammerman is reporting "block trades" via Charles Schwab, who often report these trades...

    TastyTrade Method

    2. Following the TT method you are never being mechanical, you are making discretionary decisions. Their back testing is amateur at best. They cherry pick/ curve fit their own testing universe and inputs, sample size is always too small, there's no out of sample testing, no real Monte-Carlo(...

    2 Cards better than 1 for 4 or more monitors?

    Exactly, The idea that you should purchase 2x cards to run 4 monitors is ridiculous. This is 2016, not 1999. Any typical intel chip (eg i3, i5,i7) is going to have an inbuilt graphics processor, which will run dual monitors. SO even if your graphics card fails, you could still use 2 x...

    Viagra for the brain

    IF people were just happy with what they have got, then the world would go backwards. So you mean to say that someone who has a known genetic gene mutation which evolves into a full blown cancer, should just accept that they have cancer, and be happy with the fact that they're going to die...

    Viagra for the brain

    Crazy story, however, don't assume that the "Nootropics" that Gen Y is taking are anything like GHB. The main compound in question, Piracetam, has proven to be quite non-toxic in pretty much every study since the 60's- Even in extreme doses. In comparison, GHB induces oxidative stress...

    What is the difference between traders using TA and tapereading?

    Jigsaw & Bookmap track current + historical order book data and record certain metrics based on order book movement, and trades executed at each price point/tick. Jigsaw will show you T&S aswell, Bookmap will not- The premise of Bookmap is to display both Orderbook/ T&S is one visualisation...

    What is the difference between traders using TA and tapereading?

    That's not true at all, who told you that? It's a very close minded point of view, you obviously haven't been around very long. It's also abit silly to say you should stop everything and learn how to code. There are so many different ways to trade and so many different types of people in the...
