    Limit orders that rest in the US equity markets

    Apologies for the noob question, are you saying that there are exchanges operating alongside the official CME ones where trades are occuring? Who owns and manages these exchanges? Also, what is a sub penny algo and how can they deny you a fill? Thanks.

    Switching to Linux from Win10

    Sorry. I really dont have an answer for you. My dislike of apple products is quite irrational. I had an iphone many years ago and I couldn't get mp3's onto it so I think from then I disliked their products. A few weeks back I wanted to stream the grand tour from amazon to our tv using my wifes...

    Switching to Linux from Win10

    Im sorry but that is just horseshit. My wife has a macbook pro and an iphone. My son has a macbook pro and an iphone. My two younger sons look like they might have been brainwashed into this apple world. In my house I am the last bastion of resistance against the apple curse. Apple for the...

    How do you stay ahead of the herd/majority?

    I read somewhere that retail is approx 5% of the cash market. Cant remember where I read that. During liquid sessions wgaf what what the retailers are doing anyway, even if I knew real time how retailers were positioned I still wouldnt factor that data into my decision making.

    How do you stay ahead of the herd/majority?

    Im assuming 'ahead of the herd' means anticipating a move correctly prior to other market participants seeing it? In that case, the only way you can be ahead of everyone else is: 1. You guessed right 2: You know something no one else does. #1 falls under the umbrella of consistency. If you can...

    Switching to Linux from Win10

    You mean 12 GB dont you. I was using 12MB back in the Windows 95 days.... when Duke Nukem was rocking the scene. Seriously, forget Linux. Try the SSD before making such a big commitment. Win10 Rocks.

    Switching to Linux from Win10

    Your bottleneck is probably the hard drive. I have a 5 year old laptop. Booting into Win10 before SSD = 3 -4 minutes. Booting into Win10 after SSD = 10-15 seconds. 15 seconds includes the login and all the post login startup protocols and apps.

    WARNING This might give you global warming goons an embolism

    More mosquitoes as well. Warmer temperatures are helping them to reproduce quicker and in places they could not survive in before. Saw it on discovery. Scary.

    is resistance at the height of the bar or the candle wick?

    @Macca1 Do you even know what you are talking about? The question is about candles. You are just trying to sound clever by defining levels in orderflow terminology. @cashclay IMO on your trading timeframe the candle body is what matters but only when compared to the closing position of other...

    Interactive brokers + Sierra + Forex

    Its not SC fault, IB's data feed is terrible. Even through their own platform TWS it seems to be filtered. The whole point of trading cash forex is position sizing. Futures has its advantages but a big downside for me is that if I want to enter 10 positions on E6 then Ill be in for $62.5 per...
