What do firms like Echo and WorldCo charge for software and equipment for an onsite trader? I read somewhere Echo charges $600 a month, if that's the case it must be difficult to incur such expenses in the first few months when you start your career.

Thanks , I used to watch the TRIN along with the TICK when trading stocks exclusively but overlooked it since I started trading mainly ES. Interesting chart of the TRIN yesterday , how frequent and significant are patterns like yesterday pm triangle ?

I trade ES and Naz stocks on the side, I watch the TICK (casually) as I know it's an important indicator used by many however I found its value limited the way I use it anyway: I look for divergences(hi-lows) or extreme readings. Does anybody have an explanation for the positive divergence...

Wow what a move today ! It sure should teach everybody not to stand in front of a freight train. All supports on ES were broken one after the other I could not believe it.

Good point. I think what we are looking for is a sunny place with a friendly tax system & immigration policy AND broadband wide availability.

I had 2 interruptions last week in the middle of the trading day. My understanding is that you don't really need to download the conversion software if you don't use your email and personal webpages .

Did anyone have problems with Cox new network last week, they say disruptions are possible for the next few days as they are setting up their own network.

Candle, good thread I have to agree with Limbo though the war has gotten to you, stop the B52 madness... Bundlemaker, sorry but 10 K for a trading education from somebody you can't check trading records over the long term it's sounds stupid, anyway you can't just copy somebody else's style...

Prop firms marketing is not much different from the earlier ticket shop's practices that catered to retail traders in the late 90's. The least you can say is that it looks fishy when you see their ads in the paper next to ads for get- rich- quick schemes.

Looking for an online resource for sentiment surveys ( Investors Intelligence, AAII Index, Market Vane etc.) . Help very much appreciated.

Hey Sabena, if you are not looking for streaming data just go to futuresource.com, still in RT go figure... Funster, I am interested in the TRack Data feed, only $30 a month, that sounds good. Is it just data and you need a charting package or do you get charts with a complete set of...

Can't see your charts either Pej. I am looking for a bounce in the first part of the week then we should see some downside (hanging man and engulfing bear on weekly DOW, S&P, dark cloud on NDX). Correction now I think we could finish the move out of the bear flag on 60 min. hit 50 MA on the...

Wallstremus, What's the name of your firm if I may ask? C2C, Just look north of the border, you don't have to give up the French lifestyle. As for the social consequences of daytrading , I would imagine it's difficult to find trading buddies in France right?

I tried IB BEST with an odd lot above market and the order just sat there without executing so I canceled. :confused:

Can someone please update me about the BEST feature, is it fast now with SuperSoes or is BEST ECN still the way to go? Thanks so much guys.

The backfill function is not working anymore. Anyone is having that problem? Thank you

Forget about european brokers if you want to trade seriously. They are all browser based for what I know don't offer decent tools and have commission structures that give you a headache. Basically they seem to be like the US brokers back in 95. Uh you'll get 50 snapshot RT quotes per trade you...

Welcome C2C, I can't believe the 62% tax on your profits! Man you need to get out of this socialist country. First do you have to pay the .6 % tax on transactions made on foreign markets? I would become a resident of another EU country some have better tax regimes than France, especially when...

OK Don I think we got it , your traders get the best training and tools (even a squawkbox from the pit) so we should all apply at your firm. Now I have a question for somebody whose time spent on this board is not part of their job promoting business: I am trying to get a thorough...

Its seems to me this whole open book thing is a joke, another marketing gimmick. 50 bucks per month for delayed data? C'mon. BTW while we are talking about the NYSE, there was an interesting article in the last 2001 issue of the Economist about how the NYSE took advantage of the Amex shutdown...
