Remove them from the TWS Page :cool:

I've set up <Space Bar> as hotkey to clean up filled / cancelled orders. That way, you can clean up fast if you want but if not, they 'll stay up for around xxx seconds (You can set your time) Def, have you heard anything about the stop-limits within the bracket orders ? Thanks,

I use a difference of 10 points between the stop and the limit price. Hope this helps

I try to look at the market depth and T/S. If market is 'fading ' I tighten my target with 1 tick If you don't feel good with this because your R/R % changes, also change your stop -loss Hope this helps

Jay, Take a deeper look into TWS, Anything you say cannot be done, CAN BE DONE.... And fast (Hotkeys) :D

I think this current version of J-Trader is not very good for scalping as well. I know they will come out (soon) with a new version that has hotkeys so perhaps this will be good. For now, The fastest way to trade using the J-Trader is from the DOME screen, but it sometimes takes almost 2...

Longshot, Trying to help someone here, everyone can look at the same charts in a different way. Everyone chooses their own period which they are happy with, for example - Trader A looks to trade the tick charts and looks at 1 minute and 5 minute for confirmation - Trader B looks to trade...

Longshot, please explain ??

H2O Trade Rule nr. 1 - Always trade in the direction of the higher time frame. The higher time frame rules. It gives you major support & resistance. The tradable time frame only gives you entry and exit signals but I only take trades that are confirmed by the higher time frame. :cool:

TGregg, How do the results match your current postition ? (correct me if I'm wrong.....) Did you not feel to certain about it and wanted to gain confidence by hearing other peoples opinion ? If so, learn your lessons : 1. If you're daytrading, DON'T take positions overnight 2. If you're...

Prop futures traders do not have to have any licences, their acct is not SEC insured (every IB Universal acct is) so the only difference is profits cuts against commissions IB charges $4.90 but I've seen retail firms that go much lower. So what are you talking about :confused:

This is called trading with MULTIPLE TIME FRAMES. I use specialized software for these setups. Only trade in the direction of the higher time frame !!!

Mark, This depends on what order you're using. As I mentioned before, never use anything but limit orders on thin products. This way you will get filled at (or better :p ) your limit price or you won't get a fill.

Only use limit orders, spread to to big to use other orders Point value on YM = $5,- (There's also a $2,- contract but this has even less vol) Hope this helps,

When GLOBEX is closed, no orders can be cancelled. You have to wait for GLOBEX to reopen. I see you use TWS (IB) As soon as you have access to their system. This comes from their website : System Hours & Status The IB system is available for use during the following hours: Monday -...

If you're looking for a half point on the NQ for your entries, you might try looking at the depth of the market and T/S. This is not for the next 10 + seconds but you can get a direction for the next TICK. Hope this helps

GAT, Take a look at www.2hedge.com There you see samples about how a spread should be traded !!

I trade the TBond TNotes10 spread. I also trade some other spreads. I can say you can get good results on them but watch out : Don't trade on the spread price only. I got lazy just two weeks agoo on the BUND / BOBL spread (Eurex) and decided to enter the trade based on the spread price, It...
