Hi, I would like to receive end of day quotes from the major futures markets (CBOT, COMEX, CME, NYMEX, CEC) for use with Amibroker. Are there any free options, or if not what is my cheapest option? Thanks

I am looking for futures in these categories: currencies, grains, energy, softs, metals, indices, and interest rates.

From their site: This sounds like a ficticious market made up by the company. I'm probably wrong though as I'd think the SEC would have shut them down. Does anyone have an opinion on tradesports?

I used futuresource's free charts to watch the markets but found out the indcators are inaccurate. I guess I'll have to pay for good data/charting tools. I'm interested in futures end of day data, what do you guys suggest? Thanks

I was wondering if anyone has noticed inaccuracies with futuresource's indcators. I have the same setup as someone else (one is an MACD 3,10,16) and his lines look much different than mine. I know the problem is on my end becaus we subscribe to a newsletter and my lines go against what the...

Thank for the replies, I am surprisd that you guys suggested forex because I believed (without doing any real research) forex was only a place to put big money. The $50 margin was just a number I threw out to see what was possible, for now I'll stick to papertrading and saving up. (and possibly...

Hey guys, I haven't done any trading yet but when I do I want to start (very) small. Ideally I would like to start with say $50 initial margin which would translate to a $2500-$5000 contract. Is it possible to order such a contract or are the sizes already determined? Thanks

Thanks horri, futuresource was just what I was looking for. Any suggestions on a market simulator to track my trades? Thanks

That's my long term goal I certainly don't expect to just put money into the market and earn $1500 a month. As far as it getting harder, care to elaborate?

Hey guys, its seems you can find stock information everywhere. Not so with futures though, I'd like to watch them on an end of day basis with my own indicators, is there any website that has this for free? If not what is a good, inexpensive service to use? Thanks Ashan

Hey guys, after browsing around I see that the large majority of traders end up net losers (95%+) This sounds incredibly high, are we counting only daytraders or all types of investors in that number? I would think the number "should" be around 75-80% are net losers. Whatever the number, I...
