Agreed, but the arbing is on the ETFs against the same index, not against other indexes. It is viable as evidenced by correlations being considerably less than those of Same ETF/ Same Index Future. Nonetheless, it is an additional opportunity available for traders... Kind Regards, MAK

The clean ratio is 12 YM vs 5 ES which works out to $60/tick. However, the technicality is with regards to how many YM points occur within a single ES tick (.25 points). Usually there is about 2-4 YM points for every .25 ES points. Personally, I use a 1:1 ratio for all futures since the...

Because of arbing and pairing YM vs DM, they will have to move in synch. Additionally, I would presume that there would be a small offset between the two to account for the whole arbing frontier. The issue as with most assets will be liquidity. Granted the YM is liquid, it is not entirely...

It is hopeless Curious. Bill knows exactly who I am and everything I have ever said has fallen on deaf ears. They see the report and you get the typical counter arguments. 99.9% of Hedge Funds won't even see this type of return by the END of the year. Granted, they trade considerably larger...

Even better. Thanks Rip Regards, MAK

Curious though, will this be pit traded like the big SP during regular market hours as opposed to the Globex ES??? I know CME and CBOT are different but I've been waiting for the counterpart to the YM as opposed to the DJ... Regards, MAK

Can't wait for this... :cool: http://www.cbot.com/cbot/pub/cont_detail/0,3206,1109+36265,00.html http://www.cbot.com/cbot/pub/cont_detail/0,3206,1560+36260,00.html DDM6... coming March 20, 2006 Regards, MAK

Very NICE!... WRT to trend/counter-trend, I just follow the volume. I use crude volume zones for ES as an example. It is the same for any instrument except when pair trading (minis/big futures/ETFs). Then I'm just slaloming the tail offsets. Typically, depending on the time series being...

Just to add to what Strategy said, specifically if your vb is coded within the "Change" function, it will not be triggered by a DDE change. You can use the "calculate" function to capture MOST changes. Since you are looking for a specific cell's change in value, you will have to code a way to...

Thank you. It is so troubling why individuals speak of things they do not know. "curve fitted"... HUH? Do they understand what it is to curve fit? If you can be consistent across multiple markets across its entire history and then forward apply the same consistencies, how is that "curve fitted"...

BINGO!

Are you a "SYSTEMS" programmer? I am always miffed by statements claiming that such items should be a simple matter. I had to quit my last job (turning down > $200K) just so that they could realize that what they were asking isn't even doable let alone simple. That's almost a year ago and they...

Same here. Absolutely love the Dell 24". Dell did a quirky thing a few short weeks back and had a 55% coupon. I had to kick myself in the head for not knowing about the 24" wide screen back then. So now I will be picking up an additional 2 24" to get rid of 4 18". I've had the viewsonics and...

It's overkill when you look at it at the wrong time. Rather than leave it at that, let me explain what I mean since I am convinced that 99% of the posters on these forums could not explain what that means had they said it. So presumably you have your "setup" as most people do. If your senses...

I'm testing a DELL 2405FPW... So far so good, gonna opt to pick up two more of these puppies at Costco... Dual 2405FPW is about as much as I can handle scan wise... The third one is for another comp. These 2405 run about $800 give or take and have lots of pixel real estate at 1920x1200... If...

Quotetracker, as of today, now has the same ability. To use it properly with DOM, you can pull up a RANGE BAR CHART with the range increment set to the spread (ie. .25 for ES, .1 for big SP, etc...). Then select the volume indicator and select the pressure bar indicator. As a result, you wind up...

Thanks, that explains the real-time disparities I had been seeing. Regards, MAK

SUPER... Thanks for the quick response. That indicator is potent. More potent than I had recently known. The beauty of it, for me, is that it completes the full view of what's happening right now, all 3 independent variables... When opting for discretionary K.I.S.S. mode I just look at this now...

Hey Jerry, Does the Pressure Bar Indicator only work for time based charts? What I means is that when I use the indicator for Range Bar Charts, it always looks like the following... Is there some setting I need to configure??? Regards, MAK

It is unfortunate that you have chosen to bypass the very component which is responsible for ALL breakouts... Their is a BIG reason why Trade-Ideas has based their component on volume stats. Even better is the strong correlation between a bar's volume and its length (ie. volatility). It might be...
