    Historical emini chart

    I'm looking for a free (or cheap) intraday chart of the emini. Not real time. I looked through all the old posts and couldn't find exactly what I'm looking for. Does this thing trade 24 hours?

    Underground Traders Trading Pit

    I can't imagine what the purpose of giving an entry without also giving an exit. It's like saying the exit is unimportant. This may be true if you get a monster move in your direction right after your entry, but how often does that occur?

    Best book for Series 7 exam!

    I ran across a free source for Series 7 materials. It's an online guide. The practice tests, however, are $99. I can't personally vouch for the material (yet), but if anyone wants to get a look at what information is involved on the Series 7, check out this link...

    IB Holds Checks For 17 Days?

    This really doesn't make a lot of sense. The guy was creating break even trades, yet generating 4 commissions per trade (one buy and one sell in each account), probably in excess of $50 per trade. Am I missing some advantage in trading with yourself? Is there actually a law that states you...

    locking up

    Try Win 2K first. Win 98 just isn't robust enough to handle anything like direct access trading.

    Homepage redesign

    I like the new design. With the previous home page, I always went to the different forums to find out which threads had unread posts anyway, (which I think is the most efficient method of catching up) so I think the redesigned homepage is a more efficient way of getting around. What happened...

    "Humble advice for Series 7 candidates"

    Eugene Congrats on passing the test! This might answer your question about the extra questions. This is a quote from my exam booklet: One way the NASD and NYSE determine the validity of new questions is by including five experimental questions in some tests...these questions will...

    The Ultimate Trading Platform

    kenstl It's been my experience that if you trade through most daytrading brokers, you'll get the entire ISLD book integrated within the level 2 book. With third party software, like eSignal or whatever, I don't know. The only brokers I've seen that offer the Redibook fully integrated are...

    The Ultimate Trading Platform

    I really like customizable charting. I think one of the reasons Real Tick has stood the test of time is this feature. Here are some examples of customization I'm referring to 1)Snap to window--having either all the data appear in the chart window, or just the current data, with past data...

    Echo Trade Seminar

    Just wanted to see if anyone else on this board is going to Echo's seminar this week. So far it's me and Robert Tharp that I know of. I'll give a review when I get back. I'll let you know how Rob did (he's speaking) :)

    Quad Monitor Card - Help

    I use the Appian Jeronimo. I've had it for a couple years; works great, tech support is great. The guy that runs this site sells them; if you click on 'hardware' at the top of the screen, you'll see links to all the Appian cards.

    execution quality at echo trade and bright?

    There are some other threads on here about Echo and execution. If you do a search you'll see nothing but rave reviews about their speed of execution. Since this is your first post, I don't know if you know that you can click on 'brokers' at the top of the screen and you'll see ratings of all...

    Speed Reading/Memory Improvement

    travis The tape recorder--are you supposed to record yourself describing the images you're seeing? And then listen to them at some later point? That's the part that confused me. I'll gladly do stupid exercises as long as they work. And are we talking about a running shoe, or something...

    Can a professional have an ib act?

    I was actually thinking of keeping my IB and OnSite Trading accounts open after I started trading with Echo, since they both offer me some adavantages I would lose if I closed them. I'm certainly not planning on paying an extra $180/mo per account for pro exchange fees. Is it possible to contact...

    Speed Reading/Memory Improvement

    Gene You recommended 30 hours of study for the Series 7. In your experience, do you see traders passing with that much study? The books I have recommend 120-150 hours of study, or 80 hours of study plus 40 hours of classwork. I've already studied about 5 hours, studied stocks and bonds, and...

    Speed Reading/Memory Improvement

    Amadeus It's funny; I read all kinds of comments on photoreading all over the web, from book reviews to discussion forums. About half are positive like yours, and the rest say they've tried PR, and it's a scam. Makes you wonder whether an individual has to have certain qualities to make it...
