    eSignal Upgrades

    Does eSignal have a link that shows what has been done in each upgrade to the software, something like medved quotetracker does here: http://www.medved.net/quotetracker/ I've been to this page for eSignal, but it doesn't really tell you what's new in the upgrade (unless I just don't see...

    DIA vs. YM

    Anyone know offhand how many DIA shares is the equivalent to 1 YM contract? I know 500 SPY = 1 ES and 800 QQQQ = 1 NQ. Just haven't figured out DIA yet. Thanks.

    Esz5

    Thanks for that link Setharb. I've never really heard about that - adjusting the close price. What a bunch of crock.

    Esz5

    Didn't the S&P e-mini ESZ5 close at 1203 yesterday (10/31/05) at 4:15 pm EST? If so, then why is every datafeed showing that it closed at 1209.75? I've checked IB, esignal and futuresource. All show the same. 1209.75 wasn't even the last print at 4:00 pm Anyone?

    For YM Option Traders

    Mav74, Of course I wouldn't do this trade. It nets me $0. I was trying to find out if those "0" bids showing were actually legit. IB told me they were no good, even though there was size showing.

    For YM Option Traders

    I'm looking at the YM Oct. '05 9500 put option. It has a 0 bid/3 ask. Don't mistake it with no bid, it actually has a "0" bid showing on the screen. Is this the same as a "cab" bid, which means someone wants to pay $1 per lot? When I was an options market-maker on the NYMEX, we used "cab"...

    Zone Alarm

    Hi All, I'm trying to add some more security to my system. I have a router with a built-in firewall. Does it make sense to add another firewall like Zone Alarm (or other brands)? Can you even have two firewalls? Will two even work together or can it have an adverse effect on my pc? Any...

    Software Suggestions

    Have you tried Futuresource? They are the BEST for futures options. Probably a little cheaper than CQG. They were bought out by eSignal last year but I think they still act independently. Try this link: http://products.futuresource.com/ Good luck.

    Night Options

    I'm looking for markets which have options trading during the overnight sessions. I know the grain markets have it on ecbot, the energies used to have it but it was discontinued a few years back. Do the metals have options trading during their "access" session? Any of the financials have...

    Enhancements for Options Data with eSignal

    Jay F, Thanks for the reply. I'm aware of the new Optionsplus module, but I just can't justify paying an extra monthly fee just to have a column that tells me the "days to expiration", which I feel should be a part of your basic options chains. I downloaded the link for the historical...

    Enhancements for Options Data with eSignal

    Was wondering if eSignal would be willing to add a few technical indicators to their charts to help us options traders out. How about an "historical volatility" indicator for the stock or index where the trader could choose the length of the study, i.e. a 20-day, 50-day, 200-day historical...

    Duane G, Was wondering if you had a chance to fix the start/end times for commodities in the auto time template? It's still not correct for some of the futures markets. Thanks.
