Please help me! What's the symbol of emini SP500 futures in eSignal? I've tried ES01Z , but it's not that. Thanks DT-waw

Does anybody use MetaStock with eSignal data feed? How it works? Is it simple to create my own trading system with MetaStock? Thanks, DT-waw

Czesc Michal Doswiadczeni gracze futures uwazaja ze najlepszy do futow Emini jest eSignal. Podobno jeszcze lepszy jest CQG, ale kosztuje 560 dol/miesiecznie. Qcharts ma problemy z jakoscia notowan, a NexTrend ma notowania opoznione o 1 sekunde w stosunku do eSignal. Poza tym ma gorsze...

I think that the Home Page of Elite Trader should be redesign. First of all, link to "Workstation Guide" should go to "Hardware" section. Terranova-MB banner should be smaller. And then, I think it would be nice to have a list of latest active threads sorted under 6 ET's sections: Main...

GaretJax - excellent result! You made 950 bucks by trading 1 Emini NQ contract. So, you would earn $28,500 if you were trading 30 contracts, not just one. That figure is an Americans average <b>yearly</b> income! BTW, is it true that the maximum order size on GLOBEX-2 is 30 contracts? - I...

def - executions on Eurex from Hong Kong in 2 milisec. ??? How you measure this? Ping time from computer in HK to server in Europe will be around 120 ms ! Speed of IP packets over the internet network is limited to speed of light :D 300,000 kilometres per second. DT-waw

Yes, you're right. But only in stock trading. I want to trade only ES Emini futures. Single chart, one instrument. Even in the stock market, there are situations when almost every stock is choppy, maybe some illiquid stocks move, but 30c spreads, thinly traded stocks are definitely not for me.

Liquidity is great. About 80,000 contracts per day. Each point is worth 25 Euro. 1 contract on DAX index is worth about 100,000 Euro. Volatility is similar to SP500 Emini futures. Minimal price tick is 0.5 point. I don't know how big spreads are. You can get DAX futures quotes and charts...

What's the difference between profitable and unprofitable... Here's my 2cents Some trading strategy works, gives profts in a certain market conditions. Opposite strategy MUST be unprofitable in the same market conditions. I think there are two types of market behaviour: 1. "Trendy"...

Kicking - I have the same problem with Livecharts. Today it works horrible. I'm switching to esignal. I must have high quality quotes and charts - futures are too fast, too big leverage - I can't trade them with unreliable tools.

Average daily range of Dow futures will be around 80 - 100 pts , I guess. That is 160 to 200 dollars. If commissions at IB will be 2.95USD for 1 contract, new futures will be worse than ES futures. You must earn 3 pts just to cover commission costs. ES futures - daily range about 15 pts =...

Does it apply also to futures accounts? Thanks

Will DJ futures be available with IB? With what commission?

From which page can I download the new version build 721 Standalone?? On this page: http://www.interactivebrokers.com/download/pre_download2.htm there's an upgrade file tws40_upgrade.exe , this is not the 721 version.... :mad: I've clicked from the Start Menu on "Check for TWS...

Oh yeaaah! You are so smart and intelligent, politicians! Bin laden made a profit on shorting some stocks, so we won't permitt short selling!!! There's a bear market in US, who is responsible? - short sellers, of course! Haaa! But maybe bin laden made also some huge profits on futures! Oh...

I want to use eSignal software for Emini futures quotes and charts. Will my Celeron 333 MHz with 128 MB RAM computer running on Win2000 with TWS be enough to use eSignal? Thank you in advance, DT-waw

thanks neo. That's great in situation when market is fast, and my previous order is out of current price and won't be executed fast. Order stays live, and all I have to do, is to change the limit and hit Enter!

Is it possible to change limit of pending order ( not executed yet ) in TWS? Thanks, DT-waw

Do you have similar problems with IB futures accounts? DT-waw
