    No, no time off since 2000 :) I used to post in the chat room. Just posting one trade here as a test, though I'm not sure if there is any benefit posting scalps here. By them time I post the trade I might be out of it..

    Need a program that finds intraday breakouts from a tight range

    Slave- I have not done any back testing to confirm that the things I listed increase the probabilities. But I can tell you that I've been using these along with a couple others to successfuly trade 'intraday' breakouts and breakdowns. Of course tight stops are essential.

    Need a program that finds intraday breakouts from a tight range

    I agree that although these breakouts look 'visually' appealing, they are not easy to consistantly trade profitably. Things that increase the success rate are higher volume ratios than usual, stock price above previous day, stock price above 50 day MA, etc, etc. A tight range is difficult...

    IB's new US equity commission

    What does '@ USD 50' and '@ USD 2' mean? 1,000 Shares @ USD 50 Share Price = USD 7.50 1,000 Shares @ USD 2 Share Price = USD 4.00 If I trade 1000 shares would I pay $4? Should it not be $3.50 for 1000 shares? ($1 for the first 500 and .0005 for the rest?) Thanks!
