In what sense? It seems to trend and move quite nicely in the pre-US market hours...

I used to use Esignal but they couldn't get their act together with the eurex feed so I dropped them. I now use Ensign (or sometimes Quotetracker) with IQFeed, and I pay $60/month for the feed and $40/month for Ensign. I just added their EUREX feed today, so PM me in a few days and I'll...

Congratulations hii a_ooiioo_a, welcome to the team!

Thank you...that was one hell of a funny post. :D

I want it all...nice house, nice car, nice lifestyle, travel to exotic locales...happy friends, parents that are taken care of, and a partner that feels financially safe...charitable contributions, patron of the symphony, time to give to others...time to myself, time to exercise, getting...

In Windows, the word "server" can mean a couple of different things. In addition to being a traditional internet server, like a web server or something, server can mean a local program or library that "serves" other local processes. So, for instance, when you embed an Excel spreadsheet in a Word...

You could also trade EUREX from 10pm to 2am...very viable trading in those hours for DAX and ESTX50.

Out of curiousity, do you remember which ones? I spent two summers living in NE Maine, and I don't remember that and I can't find anything on the web...

I have used it quite a bit recently for non-trading programming gigs. I like it, but it's got its limitations. It's a great quick-and-dirty language if you prefer OO.

I know there are more than 2 canadians on this board!

Hey Andre, another great suggestion for the board would be to have a FAQ section, or a knowledge base or something like that.

Russia has already said that they did not do this... http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/nm/20030409/wl_nm/iraq_russia_saddam_dc_3 Just a rumor.

For an API like IB's Java or C++ API, there's a bit of a learning curve, because you have to learn how to write an application in Java or C++ or VB first. If you want to go that route, best bet is to use any of the countless introductory books, or for Java specifically, Sun's got a great...

API is "Application Programming Interface", and that means "a set of routines, protocols, and tools for building software applications". Basically, an API exposes some functionality that you can use to build something bigger and better on top of. For instance, Windows itself has an API that...

I wrote a simulator for IB, and I'm currently testing an order-entry version of the same tool. Should be complete soon, but if your curious now check out the simulator-only version at http://www.cicleworks.com/ibrapp.html. Bracket-trader also works quite well, in my experience.

Also, I have a simulator I wrote for IB at http://www.cicleworks.com/ibrapp.html...

You are one guy I've missed! Thanks to all here that have provided insight! iceman, marketsurfer, nitro...you guys have been absolutely critical in my growth as a trader. Many others have been invaluable too... Optional777, DayTraderNYC, sportsguy, sunny39...thanks so much. This is...

Charting SPX might be a bit misleading...there were huge overnight gaps over many of the recent days. They do change the candlestick analysis somewhat...

This is supposedly why EUREX added cancellation fees as well. I might believe it for EUREX in a liquid futures market, but I am not so sure about options markets. And anyway, if it is "aimed at the few" why is the majority punished? Like I said earlier, why do I pay a red cent when I do...

Nah, I'm not saying it's a good idea....it can't help their business. Especially since the credits do not last over a day...so if I cancel an order this morning because I tried to split the huge bid/ask and it moved away from me, I'll pay some $ even though I didn't get filled? (unless it was a...
