    Time and Sales as an indicator?

    First of all you have to understand the time and sales is not like any other indicator. An indicator gives you a value, a number which has a meaning (For example, a RSI value of 80 will tell you the market is overbought). No matter when, how long, how often you look at the RSI, it always...

    Need more trading capital

    There are some brokers willing to let you trade with 5K min. (even daytrading with 5:1 buying power) This is legal because you're trading a sub acct which is not SIPC insured on your name but in the firms name so basicly your money is NOT insured if the firm goes under.... I don't think this...

    Ib
