Lets say the market is at equilibrium meaning the ratio of advancers/decliners is equal to the ratio of volume of advancers/decliners. Now if the market moved up AND we noticed the volume of advancing stocks are getting a bigger chunk of the volume meaning the TRIN is going down below 1 what...

Mr. NBBO is certainly 1 of the 4. Anybody know who the others are so we can go back and read all their posts.:D

I'd like to download a few years of SPY O-H-L-C data from yahoo (free,easy,fast) to analyze simple data like H-L range, Low for day in relation to OPEN, High for day in relation to CLOSE. Simple things like that. I don't know were to get ES o,h,l,c historical data from 9:30 to 4:00. If I...

I was having problems with IE. It would freeze when I was trying to close it down. There would be a 10 second delay before it actually closed. Switched to firefox, like it. No problems yet.

and I agree that quant funds HAVE TO have complicated strategies because they are putting 100's of millions if not billions to work. They don't have the luxury of exiting or entering a trade in a fraction of a second like us non-fund smaller size traders do.

hopefully one of these traders is reading this and can answer. Do you consider your strategy all that complicated?

I clear through MF and have no idea what you're talking about. No changes for me.

I don't really get this "bear raid" concept. I mean, what do like 1000 traders call each other up, pick a stock, do the count down 5...4...3...2..1 "ok boys, start shorting!" Which wouldnt work anyway because you'd have everybody trying to cover ahead of everybody else. BTW. Cramer is a...

Problem is at work I am behind a firewall and they wont budge on opening ports needed to run trading platforms. So is there any decent web based futures brokers out there? I'm looking to make multiple trades per day.. Dont need charts or anything, just order entry. Only want to trade the ES.

Honestly, who the hell would drive such a thing? I'd rather drive a gremlin.

On cnbc the other day Chris "Jesus" Fergason was on there talking about lobbying to legalize online gambling or something like that. Anyway, he went on to say he took 1 dollar and turned it into 20K online. Wonder how long that took.

This is funny stuff.... "Trader Vic - Methods of a Wall Street shill" "Getting burned with Japanese Candlesticks"

I don't really understand this statement. I think Mom and Pop are always in the market one way or another or there would be no wall street. Mom and pop don't trade (actively), they put there money in managed accounts and funds and its up to the managers to manage, nothing has changed.

Its days like this I wish I were trading this strategy..:(

Hmmm...looks like this amateur made a good call. :cool:

I understand all of that, but he mentioned he trades stocks that do under a mill in volume. Wouldn't one want to be looking at NYSE's open book? What good is a level2 box, you might as well be looking at a level 1 NBBO quote box and save some space.

So when you say level 2, are you trading naz stocks. I thought you traded only NYSE.

Isn't supply and demand constantly changing by the minute making s/d statistically insignificant? :confused:
