Think their was a dispute with union of one of the larger mills going into Covid, but it is nuts. Electrician myself and noticing supply chain shortages now. Simple stuff like two gang covers, none in stock, manufacturers have none. Meter hubs nowhere to be found, certain breakers out of...

Probably just over fitted. They’ll show ones that have gone up for past 10 years, go back last year, check the ones that have gone up every time in 9 years then see how they perform the next.

Well with futures you have one centralized exchange. So your atleast not getting front run but impossible for retail to compete in say arbitrage between stock index and its corresponding futures.

Don’t know about options but with stocks it’s as simple as Td or whoever to have a customer submit an order, they send it off to one of their market maker buddies, they go “hey I like that order” , give a price improvement to beat the NBBO, jump the queue and then the order gets reported at...

Was thinking same. Sounds like no edge, seems to be common with these types of post. Always looking for that tip to get rid of the losers when really sometimes just better to move on. You change a few rules to filter out some losers, then you miss out some winners and next thing you know your...

Most indicators easy to handle, their simple arithmetic. Patterns can be an issue. Something like support/resistance, wedged, pullback in uptrend, etc can be difficult to program. To code you have to be able to describe very precisely write out rules a computer can understand. Very easy to end...

Did you have a resting stop order when trying to sell? Probably have to modify/cancel that then sell. System probably got confused as you had a stop Order tied to a position and sell order looked like a short. Say you sold but then you had a stop order still open, it could reverse your position.

Don’t know how that would work on forex. Know quite a few years back a guy got sued by forex shop because they shut him down, then he used his wife’s name to continue. Basically their software sucked and lagged and he was arbitrating against their slow system and they just shut it down. They...

Was thinking he came up with “options for options”. Always figured that was the next step. Like options on futures. You got a derivative on a derivative.

I can agree for my strategies I swing trade off daily/weekly and personally never used volume for more then a liquidity filter. But to each their own.

been awhile but good chance a lot of that is TOS. Perhaps watch some YouTube videos and compare speed of their setup.

Hes not talking about price levels, he’s talking about the aggregate of the exchanges. Are they showing arca, nasdaq, bats, etc. They may not be showing all the exchanges so size isn’t really shown. I’d think TOS be the best to answer the question.

The key to success is to have your CEO state share price is too high, everyone just says “hold my beer”.

Personally use keltner channels on a 20 EMA and 2.25 ATR around it. Just a visual to measure range and volatility, helps stay out of parabolic moves. 95% of candles fall in that range, they start going completely out of bounds things are nuts. Bollinger bands act similar but emphasize...

Yahoo, Quandl, maybe barchart, Tingo.

Use to just use debit, then kind of realized I was paying for everyone’s credit rewards and cash back. So now I joined them. Just charge everything and pay the bill monthly.

Their is a possibility of blending quantative trading and discretionary. Linda Raschke and Adam Grimes use this approach. Using something like what happens after 4 new lows, what happens after a 3 standard deviation move, etc. Using some stats to help guide your trading. A lot of discretionary...

It’s probably measuring dollar amount which is probably not what your after.

I wouldn’t say as far as do what we’re told, but most got on board. What I noticed most from our friends to the south was people more or less not worried about catching it because their young and healthy, while here the young and healthy we’re scared of giving it to their friends/older family...

I thought our premier was nuts when he shut it down when we had a couple cases that started from cruise ships. Looking back it stopped it pretty early. Things have been open up now for a couple months and had a couple cases from travel but pretty quiet. Masks aren’t common here. Could be bad...
