Nas, You're not alone. Anyone that claims to have this market figured out, is only fooling themselves.

If one checks past posts about PD, they'd find that I had an odd experience trying to open and fund the account. Seems they tried very hard to get as much cash out of me as possible. This sent up a red flag, and I decided to stay with my current broker. I too am upset for all of those burnt...

IMHO, one of the best kept secrets for inexpensive charting are SierraCharts. Their data feed can either be IB or MyTrack. The charts are simple yet crisp with a lot of flexibility in both layout and time frame. There is also a very active message board for support or new ideas. However, I...

Let me add my 2 cents. I've been self employed for 25 years. Occasionally I'll need to hire part time help. Two years ago I did just that. This employee worked 30 hours a week as a helper making 8 dollars an hour, for about 6 months. His wife also had part time work. When it came to...

Birchbay, After going on the 4 year plan of learning TA, I have 3 words of advice. Study........Study.........Study. As I'm sure anyone on this board will tell you, trading is an art, not easily mastered. It does take commitment and determination. One book that I wish I had read in the...

Try PC2PC.com They might be able to help.

For the past 3 years I've been using MyTrack..............shhhh. Do you hear the gasp? Not sure why so many dislike them. While their commissions might seem high their execution and routing is excellent. Coupled with MyTrack I use SierraCharts. Great combo. As for PointDirex, I've sent 2...

Chasinfla, A bit off topic but couldn't help but notice who you quoted. Great song writer. Phreedm

Kastro, Obviously you know you need to read, and read, and read some more. Personally, I got started with MyTrack. They only require $500.00 to get started. Thats not enough to attempt to get serious about trading for a living, but it does let you get your feet wet. The other nice thing...

I believe MyTrack allows you to open a delayed account for free. They have a limited stock screener, but gaps is one of them. You can also see how the stock is trading in delayed time.

After doing a quick search of the Elitetrader's forums, I've been unable to find a thread dedicated to block trades. Would any of you post your favorite sites that will alert you to block trades going through? Thanks

Shorty, like you I trade part time and I am still very much in the learning curve. Currently I use MyTrack www.MyTrack.com as my broker. I believe their execution speed is very good. However, their scanning is a bit limited and the screen layout could be improved a bit. They also have...

This web site is amazing. I just received my new issue of Active Trader and caught the ad for PD, and don't you know we already have 3 pages of intelligent questions and answers. OK. At the risk of changing that theme. Does PD have the ability to use Market Stop orders? Also, are they web...

At the risk of making a complete fool of myself, I'll give THOR a charting shot. One needs to be able to laugh at one self once in a while. I'll agree THOR is in a sloppy uptrend, but I believe it is following the lower channel of an Andrews Pitchfork. Major price support should be around...

Good Morning, For what its worth I have been using a simple charting program called "Sierra Charts". Their data feed comes from Track Date Corp. After 4 months I am very pleased with them. Their Technical Assistance is via a message board, but the response time is very fast. At the risk of...
