    Profitable Shorting?

    I would like to hear more please. Do you have a standard set of stocks to trade, and if so how many? Or are you always looking for new stocks to trade every day? How do you pick your candidates? Thanks for any feedback, as it sounds most interesting and a very exciting way to trade.

    Is that everyone uses the premise that it's supposedly a good way to pick stocks for a longer term investment. Perhaps there is some merit, but I was never able to get it to work consistently. I have read both of ONeill's books and had subscribed to the online and print IBD. And tried to...

    candle sticks program

    What are your opinions of candlestick pattern usefulness when the timeframes are changed? For example, observing a 15 minute chart versus a 3 minute chart would give you totally different indications or perspective with totally different conclusions. How does the observer balance the...

    ET members Threei and ChrisT, have written a book describing the Price Volume relationships in "Techniques of Tape Reading" by Graifer and Schumacher. A good read and it has helped me considerably.

    SP 500 bottom in ? Baron , notice

    Thanks to Macal425, Lindq, Bruto and the rest of you. If Walther is trolling for prospects on ET and can't post his trades in realtime or or doesn't have a trading account or doesn't have a website, he should go away. I feel that anyone on ET that is looking to sell a system should be...

    what the hell is up with NQ?

    If you ever get a chance and are so inclined, I'm sure some of us here would like to know how you scan for candidates (indicators used), and what charting package you use. I appreciate your postings. Thanks, Mike

    Screen Capture

    I like Hyper Snap for $35. because it can crop before or after saving, can add text and notes easily, before or after saving. It works great for capturing charts for trades and adding text for trade logs.

    No more bullets per sec

    It makes about as much sense to require an uptick to go short as it would be to require a downtick to go long. The uptick rule is outdated and needs to be eliminated.

    Order Entry Keypad

    Thanks for the help. Turned out the Microsoft driver for the USB port needed to be reinstalled. And as Lancer suggested, slowing the keyboard speed down eliminated the key bounces and multiple entries. And as Puffy suggested, it's easier to send the keyboard strokes to MS Word to see...

    Order Entry Keypad

    Thanks for the tips. Software drivers for keypad are Win 2000 and XP version and new. USB port recognizes the Xkeys unit. Unprogrammed keys sent to word show up as alpha numeric values, so the connection is working. When typing to word, some of the programmed keypads do not show up as...

    Received the new Xkeys USB SE version of the 58 key model yesterday. Installed Macro works. It's easy to set up the keys in the Macro Works software. I have tried several USB ports, uninstalling and reinistalling Macro Works several times and even downloading from the web page. It...

    IB losing the edge in commissions!

    I just came across this site. They advertise 1/2 cent and no ecn pass throughs. Also have emini futures and options. Certainly looks interesting from the price standpoint, but they have no bullets, so I will not be using them. http://www.tracktrade.com/

    Alternatives to IB and TS for trading both stocks & futures

    I just stumbled over this site. It advertises 1/2 cent and no ecn pass throughs. Also has options and emini futures. I am not going to use them because they have no bullets and am going with Xoomtrade instead because of the bullets. But the price sounds good. http://www.tracktrade.com/

    Scalability Scalper Targets

    Could I ask, if you don't mind what broker and software platform you use. Are there instantaneously executed bullets, or do you have to order bullets separately? Thanks for replying If I am not intrusive.
