    Amibroker: IB Advance/Decline line symbol

    I'm not afraid to tell you that I'm an total idiot (but, to be totally honest with you, I don't believe in "total" part, doh :)). Now, when your dream came true and we already cleared this up, it could be potentially easier for you to come out of the sphere of personal relationships, and make...

    Who at ET trades for a living?

    I trade on the regular basis each trading day since 8:30-9:30AM EST till 4:15PM EST. It includes the periods (95% of the time!) when I just wait for the proper setup to appear on my screens and don't execute any transcation(s). The bottomline could be around 250-300 transactions per day...

    No one on EliteTrader will beat the market… here is why

    for wannabe traders, the most simple patterns to grasp are, probably, flags (bullish & bearish). they are pretty easy to spot and measure the potential target, especially if used in combination with volume and pivots. also, lines of support and resistance and channels inside other channels on...

    Amibroker: IB Advance/Decline line symbol

    i'm proficient in C#/CLR/.NET technologies, but i can tell you that you really don't need to know all C# trickacies at all to be very successful in NT/Wealth-Lab or anything related to trading and C#-based. Everything is already prepared and very friendly wrapped for your convenience, and mostly...

    2009 could be a year of surprises (God forbid!): * new tricks by MMs * more powerful dark pools (you cannot scalp them!) * new regulations * even some changes in tax regulation can make our life much more difficult, and our scalping less effective for the long run. options can...

    Just show me one mechanical technical analysis that has been profitably backtested?

    probably, it never intended for the wide spectrum of instruments, because after trying it on DIA, for example, we got the foll'g result: Testing Results -------------- 1) SuperBands, with Linear Regression Analysis 1500 Bars of Price Data were used in testing DIA. Loss $-928.74...

    oh, well, thank you for your confession -- i kick my dog sometimes, too :) (a joke -- i don't have a dog, really) on a serious note, my trading pays my bills at least for the last tens of years, and i never ever tried to kick the market, even when she was barking at me too loud :)

    No one on EliteTrader will beat the market… here is why

    what is the definition of "beating the market", after all? making money and beating markets could be mutually exclusive exercises :) how you define the score of such a "competition"? who actually won, you or market? importantly, who even cares? it could be ok when market is up, and...

    What's HOT! for 2009 anything?

    shorting could be easy, but... bear market rallies are MUCH more intensive than bull market rallies, contrary to the consensual believe so, historically, short-run bear market rallies, in the form of almost totally vertical streight lines up, can make some ppl so nervous that they can...

    what if it gonna be rather out of your personal experience, without any attempt to generalize anything and/or giving any definitions ? :) it can make it more interesting, at least, it could be considered like some sort of novel and not a f*king manual nobody believes in and/or read in these...

    No one on EliteTrader will beat the market… here is why

    keeping a diary/journal/log of my trades and, importantly, tracking my initial trading plans and recording real emotions/stream of consciousness during real executions helped me a lot. i actually found out something useful about myself that i did not initially know at all -- after all, you...

    You're very welcome. All above is just my humble opinion, and not the ultimate truth, of course. A lot of ppl could have totally adverse opinion, but I really believe in what I'm saying.

    Amibroker: IB Advance/Decline line symbol

    Absolutely. As for the NT, I know C# pretty good, and of course, there are some advantages using C# event-driven model, but it depends. Plus, NT has very interesting implementation of DOM. Amibroker is ideal for autotrading, and a lot of self-made systems are created, tested, optimized and...

    Amibroker: IB Advance/Decline line symbol

    I ABOLUTELY love Amibroker, but, I should admit that Tomasz really does disservice to his own product to not responding (as a matter of fact, AT ALL) with at least draft of some working example regarding the notorious AD-NYSE-NYSE-IND issue (and similar ones), for lamers. I know for sure how...
