    1% a day and MM

    I'm going to try something different. I am going to have an extra account where I start with $15000 and see if I can grow it at 1% a day. I'm going to stick to round numbers for the most part, as in if I am at 15750 acct size I'll take $150 net as equating close enough to 1% for the day...

    X_Trader $3.30 Total Round Turn

    I agree, I was just curious why if you are trading that kind of size you were at IB in the 1st place? Much better rates have been available for awhile for that size with the those other platforms, from other brokers.

    X_Trader $3.30 Total Round Turn

    Just curious how many round turns you do a day at 35 a crack? If you only do 2 a day you could easily qualify for lower rates at other brokers where phone service has never been a question. I think you could have easily been saving .5-.8 a contract rt. I will throw out, in somewhat fairness...

    Announcing TradeStation 7.2

    Do I read the description on the site correctly, that it will now be possible to run the platform on more than one computer at the same time? I use 3 computers and that would be great. How does the fee structure work? Is it one fee or will I pay for each instance, and how about exchange...

    Any drugs, herbs, or dietary supplements that improve trading?

    LSD is still numero uno for my trading! I see patterns so much better! It's like they jump out of the monitor in 3-D or something...dude!

    IB losing the edge in commissions!

    I had slow response, never had an order disappear, and never had a cxld order filled. My problems were purely on the RCG end not the jtrader platform itself. Like I wrote, haven't had a problem since I switched clearing firms. On the other hand.. with IB I have had very slow response time...

    IB losing the edge in commissions!

    Jtrader is a solid platform if you are with a good clearing firm. Only time I had a problem was when I went with a firm that used Jtrader via RCG. RCG had awful tech support of jtrader and I had the problems described. When I switched clearing firms my problems all dissappeared. Not one...

    R&W Technical

    Anyone here ever trade these programs? I think they have been out of buisness awhile, but a friend who has quit trading gave them to me to play with. I can't seem to get them all to work properly in Tradestation 2000i, but it looks interesting, and with a little work I can probably figure...

    ABS Computers

    and at least on reselleratings.com they come highly recommended. I had problems with their webpages and couldn't seem to get an answer to a question online or via the phone, so I went elsewhere. Not positive on this but I believe that you will have to load your drivers yourself for some...

    IB Downtime

    I don't even bother trying to call. As good as they are for some things they are awful to deal with when this happens. Get a back up broker, or if you are playing with little capital find a different one you can get ahold of when all goes wrong. Yes there are now plenty you can find that are...

    one who you can look up at the cftc for violations. You make the call whether it's justified or not.

    anyone trade single stock futures?

    real lite from what I understand. Also thought I read that in quite a few cases the open interest is almost all in the hand of onetrader or firm, so I would think that could be a bit dangerous for anyone else.

    Neuralscope predicts s&p500 ?? for $2700??

    trial, so why don't you try it out and let us know if it works. I can tell you I have a friend who paid more than that for something similiar from a company called Racecom.com, and it was a big pile of pooooo :eek: . Anyway, let us know if it works, I always look forward to throwing more...

    Dell Dimension 4600 Desktop P4 2.4GHz $139.00

    Thats the 2nd time I hesitated on a deal with Dell and missed. They had a 200g HD a few weeks ago that after two rebates would have been $22. It was a mistake, but they eventually said they would honor it. ARRRRGGGGG!!!
