Does this integrate with Esignal charting, i.e. can I tarde "off" a chart and display stop/entry etc. levels inside of an Esignal realtime chart?

Here is an interesting article from a professional pessimist or let's say contrarian: http://www.thestreet.com/_rms/markets/realestate/10302860.html I found this quote interesting: I love the guy who earlier in this thread considered the a drop in value of 20% to be "the worst case"...

@ Paccc: Thanks.

Regarding Amibroker: Can you specifiy positition sizing when doing a portfolio backtest? For example can I specify "Use 1% of portfolio equity on each trade"?

Bookmarked these two websites but their software feature description is bare bones at best: https://www.hedgefacts.com http://www.mechanicasoftware.com

You are getting raped for fees at Scott Trade. Get an IB account.

I'm looking into Excel right now. Are you using VBA with Excel to get what you want or are you just using the bare bones Excel functionality? E.g. is there a reasonably simple way to accurately account for "Shift 50% of funds from Strategy #1 to Strategy #7" problem in Excel?

I am trying to put together a system that allows me to monitor and manage different strategies within my account. Let's say total equity is 100%. For sake of simplicity let's say we have 10 strategies (1. trendfollowing 2. break out 3. dip buy 4. covered call selling 5. etc.) that each...

I have never tried NS, but I saw they added automated trading with IB so that's a big plus to any other NN software that I know right now. I see a boatload of plugins and extensions being available for NS so it seems this is the de facto standard in the NN department. Tradingsolutions...

They just announced $99 bike offers last week. It was on Real Money, Street Insight. Seems they sit on a lot of inventory. Short HDI.

I guess it depends on who you deal with. My support person @ IB is super great. Big props to her.

I can't vouch for it, but you might want to look at http://www.spooztoolz.com Good luck.

Make sure you close it before it gets delisted though :D

excellent thank you

I am a bit confused about IB's fees (http://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/accounts/fees/interest.php), can someone please shortly describe the fees I pay (or the interest I receive?) on the following scenarios. Let's assume a 1000k (1 million) US Dollar account for each: 1. 1000k cash. I...

Sold his equity to raise cash, then bought penny stock equity. From some other (probably also stolen?) account they sold penny stock to his compromised account at a "high" price. That's how they got money out of his account. Simple & scary. Not trying to be paranoid, I'm just concerned about...

Using your TWS user/pass and a low volume penny stock an attacker could siphon funds off of your account, circumventing the need to wire funds out. Check out this thread, gave me the creeps: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=69978&highlight=fraud

Thanks, put it on the to-do list. Great idea.

I just found this: http://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/software/security.php So apparently there is a way to restrict IP range! That's great. Still... anybody have any tips or general best practice procedures to share, please post.

I am opening a new IB account with new funds. While I know there are much larger accounts the size is still sizable, at least big enough for criminals to spend their time figuring a way "in". 1. I understand IB has a token device, but this will "only" cover the fund withdrawal process. So far...
