    Housing Rolling Along 2

    I would agree that the Bay Area will be hit. But I think it's only going to be certain spots. For example, I live in Contra Costa. I bought a house here last year because it was a good investment idea, not necessarily because it's chock full of well developed businesses... :) Actually, I...

    Does Tradestation offer mobile connectivity?

    Does TS offer the ability to open and close positions via mobile? For example, IB allows you to do it via their WebTrader and I think they even have a new piece of software that's coming out...

    Housing Rolling Along 2

    That is not a crash. Please quit being a doomsayer. Let's be realistic here -- the Bay Area will not have a housing crash... sure, it'll top off and stagnate for a few years, but a crash? C'mon now. :) And let's go ahead and give the readers of ET the whole story from that clip: But...

    IB's New IRA Margin Account

    Yes, I have. And you're limited by the PDT rule as far as I can tell. As soon as I close my transaction, my account has the full account amount ready for me to enter another trade. I love it. No more waiting for the archaic three day rule...it's great.

    IB - Margin Call on IRA Account?

    No... I'm not just 'another piker' as you put it. I made a mistake. It happens. Considering that I'm new to the game, sure I make mistakes. But I do have a strategy that I, for the most part, stick with, so I'd say I'm not just throwing money in the market. Considering that I've built this...

    IB - Margin Call on IRA Account?

    Thanks fellas for the replies, I appreciate it. I emailed them and they stated that the $10 charge they charge me every month put my account in a debit balance. In other words, talk about timing! The following day, I entered a trade, it happened to reverse on me, and triggered this call...

    IB - Margin Call on IRA Account?

    I received a notice today that IB had to liquidate 100 shares of my position because I had insufficient equity in my account to cover it. But my account isn't a margin account -- it's a retirement account. So I emailed IB...I'm waiting for a response. Does this make sense????

    Hey Jerry, I notice that QCharts won't go back more than one day. I think you mentioned at one time that we'll have to leave it open if we want to get all the data, unlike, say, Prophet.net's feed where you can instantly backfill for ten days. Am I correct? Does the QCharts backfill have a...

    Mike...it's just a software development schedule...chill bro... :) Every software development firm, be it the Medveds or Microsoft, have a list of expected features, enhancements, and revisions for the upcoming six months. It's not too much to ask of a vendor to post what they are planning...

    Jerry, I figured out the problem. I look at 30 minute charts. So it's not showing either first (?---10:00 then starting to increment per bar) or last (12:00---12:30----?) Weird...I don't remember it this way before... Wealth Lab does the same thing. Maybe I've just noticed something...

    Hi Jerry...thanks for the reply. Actually, raw data is perfect -- I can even see after-market data... The charts start at 9:30 and end at 3:30. I've even deleted all the data associated with that particular symbol and re-backfilled and the same thing happens. I can duplicate it over...

    For some reason, I can't get chart data pass 3:30 every day. I've checked my settings and everything -- it's supposed to go from 9:30 - 4 every day... Odd...

    Hi Jerry... Maybe I didn't see it, but does QT offer stop loss chasing by %? In other words, I go long XYZ at $100 and I set my 3% stop loss at $97...when XYZ goes up to $110, can I set QT to auto chase the stop up? In this case to $106.70...(which means I lock in a $6.70 profit...)...

    Hi Jerry... Here's a feature request for you -- historical intraday playback... ;) And BTW, do you know of any services that offer, say, 5-10 years worth of historical intraday data? I'm wanting to do some backtesting in Wealth-Labs with something other than daily charts, and so in...
