The intelligent *and* hmmm wealthy man/trader reads ET.:D

Have you tried Mizuho Financial Group? Doesn't sound like the TSE hadles order cancelations very well, though!:D 'Seems the Japanese don't like foreigners in their markets, it messes up their candlestick patterns!:p...

That's what it must be!

I really don't care and it doesn't make any difference. Now, if you came up with some meaningful statistics of how to interpret and measure the success of any pattern beforehand or realtime, then most here would be all ears. Monday morning quarterbacking doesn't count in identifying patterns.

Unfortunately, your broker doesn't let you trade after-the-fact. Not even 5 minutes! Now if you could use those bs "triangles" to make a profit in *real-time* with any consistency, then great, but after-the-fact wouda, shoulda, coulda is well, just plain 'ol BS.

cooldude, Thinking like that is how most beginners blow out. You stand about the same chance as winning the lottery attempting doing that. When I first started out trading, my usual thinking was...if I just had more money, I could do this...if I just had more money, I could do that. But...

nitro, The deal from dell is a 2.8 GHz machine. I bought a couple of the 3.5 or 3.6 GHz from dell in the past year and don't notice much difference in performance from the 2.8GHz systems. Technically, how much "performance" do you get by spending more for the faster chips? Is it better to...

Hunter, what's your problemo? The guy was just asking that you not come across as being affiliated with them, that's all. On a related note, while I gave the impression that I used quotein, I was actually referring to the MarketFeed data service which is 1 of their main data providers. But I...

One thing to keep in mind when you're new at this...whatever you can think of, chances are 99.99999% it's been done, studied, thought about, discussed, researched and traded to death. Very, very few things are out there to pluck. On Wall St, they *take* your money. It's *very* hard to take...

Damn! What are those hedge fund idiots thinking?! Some EliteTrader newbies figure out how to cash in on the cubes when those dumb pros trade billions of shares and are barely profitable this year? LOL!

In this simulation/testing, what is your average profitable trade, avg losing trade amount, avg trade? How many trades are you generating to get the hypothetical 70% return? Is that 70% on your $5000.00 margin? Or 70% on the contract's value($63,000*.70)?

They're DDE. I've read about RTD but have never used it.

foible, looks like you'd earn more and have more fun at a Chinese "sweat-shop"!

Hunter, I've used that service a couple of years back. Unfortunately, for some reason the cpu on both machines doing the trial kept being overworked due to their software/program. Weird because their program is actually very compact and simple to use but I just couldn't continue with it. As far...

cash, Quote.com has no limit on the # of symbols. Their subscription rate is about $100/mo. I've done 2000 symbols into excel and it was fine. The only problem is if you start to do a lot of number crunching with that data, then it does bog the machine down...you'll even notice the fans...

None of that stuff works. Neither do ma's, double ma's, triple ma's, quadruple ma's. You need something more unique. On second thought, the problem is not your system so much as *where* you apply it and 95% of ETF's aren't the place for ma systems.

Huh?

Before I bother to measure anything, I always look at the equity curve for smoothness. If it's rough, I usually pass.

I'm not interested but if you were to post more job-related duties in detail, a well-qualified person may actually come forward?
