For markets to go down, people have to sell. Retail was running for the doors to open accounts to buy the dip in ETF’s. Everyone’s hunting for yield and theirs none anywhere. Be nice to see a breakdown of how much money is retail ETF’s/Pension funds vs active traders/hedge funds that think the...

When I worked in northern Alberts in oil sands it was outrageous the favouritism. Superintendent / construction management positions at the companies I worked for started around 200-250k a year. Most my trades department was all from the same tiny community from Newfoundland.Some were fresh...

Most of these jobs are labour. Garbage truck driver, plow trucks, city landscaping, painting road lines, road sweeper trucks, etc. Not hard for dad to get his son in on an entry level position and move through the rankings via internal postings.

Sure @MattZ will chime in but remember listening to this podcast when it first started. https://chatwithtraders.com/ep-056-matt-zimberg/ Thought it’d be nice if I had the capital to swing trade futures. Seems like world of futures has a very competitive and rounded choice of boutique...

https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/ib-how-to-cover-short-position-in-a-delisted-stock.198027/ no follow through but sounds like a pain. Some HTB fees are way up there on the real micro cap shorts. Any gains soon disappear on fees. https://ibkr.info/article/2880...

Their was someone here not long ago talking about being stuck in a short position from a halted company. Sounded like a nightmare in borrow fees, you can be stuck for some time depending on what halt was for, especially if it gets delisted. I think I’d be happy that IB didn’t exercise and...

They won't let you in. It's all family and friends watching each others back. Not like you can argue over whose qualifications are better in an interview.

Call me dumb but what happens if a state defaults? Pensions?

Thought it was just the way it was? Here in Canada I have one friend whose a civil engineer in the private sector and another friend drives garbage truck for the city, who would you think makes more? Unions treat the provincial and federal coffers like endless piggy banks. Every year more...

I’d have to say that’s a good way to look at it. I don’t think markers have been the same especially on execution since the days of digital. Depending on your frequency HFT and the decimal era have changed markets.

https://norgatedata.com/data-content-tables.php Check out at top right of first table “ US historical constituent” Can check pricing page. Pretty reasonable for a long delisted list.

Seems like a weird request. 4 hour that much different than 3? If looking at equities I’d say 195 is a better measurement than 3. The end up with two candles from the day vs 2 candles that are 3 hours long and a candle that only reflects 30 minutes. I’ve always preferred 72 minutes vs hourly...

If it’s anything like the Amibroker forum I frequent I’d lose my mind. Endless people asking really bad questions and slowly revealing each post what their actually trying to do.

My friend I were just talking about how being a game developer must be miserable to wake up. You never see gamers say “ great game”. It’s just trashing and ranting about how they think it should be. I said to him “ I couldn’t imagine all my customers ridiculing my work every day “.

Think he meant shortage of processing. If the slaughterhouses are closed someone has to keep those cows fed and watered. Cost grow so could end up just paying for someone to take. However could just put them down. Issue with oil is you can’t just close the wells down and you can’t just poor it...

I think the big issue is everyone’s looking at numbers on lockdown. Open it up, hospitals overflowing. Even on lockdown your seeing slaughterhouses close due to outbreaks. So just open it up. Tell all parts of the food supply chain to suck it up, you might get sick, probably be alright. Most...

Throw some documentation at you to see what you’d be looking at. https://www.amibroker.com/guide/afl/param.html param() function. http://www.amibroker.com/kb/tag/charting/page/3/ A bit down theirs a entry for Oct 10 2014. Think it’s something like your discussing. You can see the AFL...

I’ve used IQFeed for realtime with no issues. I use Norgate for U.S and yahoo for some Canadian stocks. My trading/portfolios are based off swing trades from a few days to few weeks. Just my job and responsibilities, looking for signals at night and entering trades at night meets my goals.

I use Amibroker. Anything is possible if you can code but what you want might be tricky. Take a simple indicator like RSI, natively you could use some selection range and have the indicator only calculate on that range but thing is the values never change. An RSI(20) uses 20 days history so...

It’s just a measurement like mentioned before. If you take delivery, your providing the tankers. This is dumby version. @bone would probably know better. CME would be kushings Oklahoma I believe, this stuff is all tied to pipelines. You don’t just go with a truck and pick up barrels. Second...
