I already did....but I used your cards, not mine. Is that even a crime anymore???? :D :D :D

Don't forget to make sure you increase the limit on your credit cards, CQG data is not cheap.

From your keyboard right to NYMEX :)

The Ponzi Hedge???

Anyone else seeing their ask price for Crude (both CL and QM) frozen? Mine are stuck at 65.01 for CL and 65.025 for QM. Very weird.

If you buy american you need to be familiar with the phrase (and repeat it once a day): You get what you get and you don't get upset.

Just for reference, what is your IB account number, your SSN, and your mother's maiden name? I need them to fix your account :p :D :p :D :confused:

Exotic dancer?

Have you tried tradestation and/or multicharts? I use tradestation and while it has definite limitations (no portfolio testing) it is very fast when dealing with very large amounts of data (tick data for say CL for the last year). I don't trade live with tradestation anymore but as a...

Have them sign up for a free trial with QCharts or Esignal, then cancel before 30 days are up. If they're overseas can't they just buy pirated data anywhere? Tell them to ask the dude on the corner selling DVDs

Why is a big firm like Bright looking for free data? Remember, you get what you pay for. Tradestation has plenty of data for their subscribers. QCharts too.

OEC is now owned by optionsxpress, so they may be less likely to go under than before. Then again who knows..... I've only used OEC and I like them -- that said I still do most of my trading with IB.

What does gold from 2001 have to do with December 2008 delivery? :confused:

The survivor systems (energy, russell, dax) all have long successful track records (the energy one goes back 2 1/2 years successfully). They're awfully expensive though, and I have some questions about the developer's integrity. In August he stopped trading late in the month when the profit...

It'll be down 10% tomorrow. Welcome to volatility!

The cancellation fees are to prevent bots from moving orders all over the place and then pulling them when they look like they'll be hit. Most brokers will offset them with execution credits (not sure if this is done by the exchange or the broker) but generally if you have one fill per five...

Not true. Of course it is true most of the time, but not always. For example there are a few systems on Collective2 that work, but most are land mines just waiting to be stepped on. Believe it or not, there are people out there who can write a great trading system but just do not have the...

Openecry, PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF (insert whatever you want here) STOP WITH THE DAMN MODAL POPUPS! Please pop them up in a notification window like IB or anyone else. I don't need a window taking over my whole desktop to tell me (TWICE NOW) that you changed margin on something I've never...

Did the crash in 1987 forecast a deep recession? if so, it didn't happen. Markets cannot be used to accurately forecast anything, and certainly not their magnitude. Did the dotcom collapse forecast a depression? That's not to say we won't get a deep recession .... just that you can't...

Can't you set "liquidate last" on specific contracts? I don't know how it works with spreads but with single contracts you can definitely specify this.
