They do have some advantages, for the moment I just wish to get the charts going

Just signed up for the Equis QuoteCenter DDE link. Looks OK so far. Hope its reliable.

I used to be able to access good charts thru IB, but now they display no information on the axis. I can't find anyway to fix this, anyone else experienced this?

I checked with iqFeed and they say its only the realtime feed that can go into Excel, no intraday backdata, other than through a charting program that then requires custom programming to retrieve the data to Excel. I checked with eSignal and their API is really the field for a programmer...

Actually want something lighter. Appreciate the advice. I am not a developer and have limited capacity for getting these sort of things to work. Are these simple to use, or do they require supervision and oversight. My experience is data services require 'waking the system up' to get new...

I find theres a bit of unwelcome attention being sort treated like an honourary expert sometimes, when really that doesn't suit somehow. Then theres the times when you wish to mention success but it'd come of as bragging, times when things go bad but would seem like a disaster compared to the...

Do you recomend a particular provider?

How well does trading fit in with emotional experiences elsewhere, with friends or everyday domestic life? Do you find it can be really difficult to discuss at times or can dwarf other issues?

This is exactly the approach I take, and have used for years and I find it works really well, I couldn't consider things otherwise, I also have one for 'other projects'

Hi, Can anyone advise please, help me understand the difference between the "Market Value" and the "FX Portfilio" on the Accounts Display. They both show a listing on currencys. I understand what they refer to, the FX, is a "virtual position", as if it were a "contract". What I can't...

Probably, though INTJs are rare and I believe other types are very relevant, the patience of the Ps, INTPs and ENTPs, ENTPs seem very prevalent in industry and advisory services. ISTJs are the classic conservative money managers, shrewd and careful. INTPs are great with the academic stuff...

Hi, Are you aware of your Myers Briggs type? Do you believe it has an influence on trading abilities?

Thanks for the great answers

Hi, Can anyone with an economic understanding help me with a couple of obvious question about US mortages? It's understood that rising bond yields affect the mortage rates - why is this, can't the banks lend, with a margin at a rate that reflects the Feds minimal interest rate? In OZ/NZ it...

Hey thanks, it does look good.

Hi I'm looking for an excel compatible, SIMPLE intraday [5, 15min] data service, for US stocks. Any recomendations please? I've tried Qcharts and they are good but vy expensive at 140/mo. Quotelink seemed unreliable for the realtime version, Barcharts also, QuoteTracker seemed to only give...

The proposal seems all too possible. The DX would probably be halved. I believe in the long term that the real loss is going to be many of the good elements of the west financial systems, like the relative liquidity, freedom and wealth of information and press. It's interesting to look at...

That's an understatement. Capitalists don't have much ability to take on debates or exercise influence when it comes to morality situations. So they could be in for more surprises.

Hi, Because of all the news of banking orientated corruption merging on such a massive scale, it looks like the western hemisphere, US, UK Europe etc doesn't have the moral high ground to affect an international consensus of opinion towards other countries. Eg towards Iran, parts of South...

Hi Are you in central Auckland, and care to meet up and exchange views on trading?
