I think if you put your homework in and strictly follow a method 30-50% returns per year on a retail size account is not out of the question with pair trading. Of course some years will be better than others, for example 2008 was a cracker of a year for pair trading, I personally did over 100%...

Yes, I was referring to 10.8% return on 2:1 margin(capital used).

Exited this trade on Friday; Sold OIH @ 96.54 Covered XOP @ 38.26 10.8% return on capital invested, had larger size on since my conviction on this trade was high. Love the ETF pair trades, makes me sleep easier at night knowing I'm not going to wake up to a takeover or bankruptcy 30% move...

look at all her poses in the photos, most of them are sexually suggestive with her fuck-me eyes, chances are she is another flirty-look-at-me type bitch, which is distracting in the office, letting her go was definitely the right call, now she is trying to cash in. poor little thing.

OIH is dramatically oversold at the moment, popping up on my radar everywhere as a buy, probably due to the gulf oil spill, fading these types of situations usually pays off in the long run. My favourite right now, currently 2.95 standard deviations and 13.71% below its mean, huge divergence...

Good stuff Mike, looking forward to seeing your trades.

Because broker/dealers, and dark pools can trade in sub pennies, they can now sub-penny your order, its a unfair advantage to the privileged and many of us traders are trying to change that.

They give you a position size calculator when signing up which you can easily use to show the exact quantity of shares to buy/sell when trading their alerts. Trust me, they have all bases covered.

Most of us pair traders hang out here on ET at http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=134253 otherwise there is www.pairtradefinder.com/forum

Generally about 3-5 new trades per week. Yes they give both entry and exit signals in real time with prices.....eg..... Enter Trade - Long TGT @ 52.68 / Short WMT @ 56.01 Then approx 10 days later, you will receive a exit signal on the same pair. When you subscribe to them, they ask...

yes their record is real, i can testify for that, all signals are given in real time in the last hour of NYSE trading each day. Ive been with them since last year and i know a few others on here have aswell. ive actually beaten their record in terms of avg win vs avg loss, i use their prices as...

Nice going guys, you're giving me some trading ideas too. Keep it up!

thanks guys, Apparently you can't direct route via API on unbundled pricing, so it would make using peg to midpoint orders not worth it, since you can only route them to ISLAND. Also this rules out using IBalgo, CSFBalgo and JEFFalgo's too. What's the point of having these order types if you...

Hi all, I'm trying to develop a automated intraday stock trading system with IB. I have a dilemma which I thought some of you on here may be able to help me with. I have a profitable trading strategy, however in real life trading its not profitable due to slippage and commissions, as...

They don't state it on their website, but you can import futures into the software, just need a real time subscription from IQfeed then you can import any futures you like, I do it myself and find some pretty interesting trades. Just email them, they always answer pretty quick.

considering i posted my trades in real time on my journal here for close to a year and returned 110% I would say it does work, I and many others I know continue to use it everyday. maybe it didn't work for you and that doesn't mean it won't work for others. yeah if your using vista or win 7...

most people on here use www.pairtradefinder.com and their software now has the ability to analyze stocks, futures, options and FX across the globe, data is 15min delayed and free, otherwise a paid subscription for real time data. pretty sure this is what your looking for.

Hi Guys, just letting you all know I'm still around here every now and then. Ive been busy with my business and don't have time to keep an up to date journal. Thought i touch base and give a quick update, as i receive PMs all the time requesting the same. I'm still pair trading and have the guys...
