Thanks to all who have replied so far(I hope more replies come forth). It seems incomprehensible that with all the books out there none are devoted to Nyse trading. Dlinke-thanks -I'm gonna get the 2 books you mention. However, think about it-prior to daytrading specialists made easy dough...

Rx-What are you talking about??? Sometimes I think you talk just to talk. Do you realize how belligerent and offensive you often are. To tell RTharp in a past post--I doubt a few negative reviews of your dads book will cut into your allowance is outrageous man-way over the line. Get straight.

Babak-thanks for your reply-may I ask you to be alittle more specific where I can find tape reading info from these 2 sites. Again thanks

Prae2--I have watched in admiration as you do exactly exactly what you say here and win handsomely. Would you please explain the paint part in very lay terms please. Thanks

Spud--RTharp is a gentleman and a scholar that has provided an incredible amount of info for the members of this site. This man is a rarity with his generosity. I know because he has helped me personally to grow and I'm sure many others. I want him to continue giving us info and not be...

I 90% of the time trade listed stocks because as I've mentioned before therein lies my best chances. Trading nyse profitably requires spec/tape reading acuity. As if by wizardry some people have this remarkable ability in their "gut". Often times pretorian 2-an excellent trader and tape...

Dustin/mjt--I'm very interested and will seek more info on both of your posts. I'm so fed up with cyber. I don't yet trade enough for $10 price so I get hurt. Dustin -I forget why but I was under the impression you moved out of cyber to Ib??

That's precisely what I'm saying mate.I think my point is clear--- Ta is helpful- which I also said--intricate TA a waste--much better to spend your time watching the specialist because as I've said it's fixed.

Gentleman and ladies-- I respect all but this thread has been painful to read and some of it such a bore. Who can deny we are in a corrupt business therefore TA although helpful must be questioned. As Farrell states in his book a stock will trend higher or lower depending upon whether the...

Robt thanks for a great post-- could you exlain somewhat precisely what you mean by word "extended" please--thanks much. Dan

Amen-- Prae2--Amen--I like your thinking here.

Mgr--I believe this is a clear and accurate observation and it baffles me that in todays deceptive mkt where on many days there is very little real trading going--just stocks being pushed around by mm/specialist and short term traders-- many traders still insist on focusing on these stocks with...

From what I understand there's a time limit of either 1/2 -or 1 hour?-with these outtrades-If your're not called within this time frame trade sticks.

Reading all these replies has been a nice experience for me. Very helpful. I believe to trade you need certainty-the nyse always appeared(in my short trading career)full of uncertainty-the Nas was the way to go-more control. I'm beginning to see that's not the case. The Nyse is by far the...

Pretorian2 and R.Tharp have posted several times here about their preference for, and success trading listed stocks. On several occasions both have offered advice on strategies for doing so--reading the specialist, watching for inordinate size etc. Although things are clearing a bit alot still...

Spam/Da Man--To condemn like this I'm sure you guys have some pretty damn good proof that Patrick is a fraud--would you like to tell us all what it is?????Otherwise I think he is owed an apology.

Sail--alot of us shorters watched in dismay as the mkt began edging up-and then higher and higher-I, personally, listened to some moron on cnbc that some big hedge fund was going to sell its biotech portfolio(I was shorting biotechs)I did not want to get caught long--so missed this opportunity...

Dustin--The RSI lesson is even more interesting-thanks

z--It's like when I was in the nightclub business-In NYC-the mayor waged war against us-hard-closing down many clubs-forcing people like me to get out-this was not a strip club-He had free rein as he knew politically the public would follow his crusade-after all how many votes can nightclub...

Fleance I'm cybercorp too-hate the commissions-Are you saying you won't leave cyber because IB is too cumbersome-requires too much maneuvering and the commish difference is not worth these shortfalls?? thanks
