hope your long ozzy, assuming you're trading ER2

This is an IB problem. My backup broker is working fine.

Yea their bulletin came out a few minutes after my post. I'm currently getting globex data but I'm not taking a position till they've confirmed the problems have been resolved. lol, and they just confirmed it's fixed while typing this message. happy trading to all!

Come on IB, say something, give us a bulletin. Should we blow off this day or hang around for a fix?

Yes I'm having problems as well. It appears to be IB's CME data feed.

IB CME Data feed problems here. Am I the only one?

As a follower/consumer (lurker) of the <b>ES Journal</b> I would like to second B1S2's remarks regarding content. Although I trade ER2 and watch ES, I've followed this thread from the beginning and share the desire to keep it on topic w/o all the personal issue comments. BTW, wtg on the 1...

Yep, going down quick. No pun intended.

tums, thanks for the laugh on this awfully slow grind up. i'm sure most can relate.

well i really don't care which way the market goes <B>BUT I WISH IT WOULD JUST MOOOOOOVE. ARRRRRRRRRRRRGH!!!!!!!!!!</B>

Why does this thread even exist? The MSM has decided obama speaks well and looks good, nothing more. The party of self destruction continues its freefall starting with Gore, Kerry, and now Hillary or Obama. This actually reminds me of learning how to trade. Blow out several accounts...

ozzy, For now use an ADX indicator and stay out if it's below 17. Over time you'll just know when to stay out based on price action.

Keep in mind that IB aggregates tick data, in .3 second chunks i believe, but when you refresh from DT you get all the ticks and your charts will look slightly different.

Is it the market or IB datafeed? All CME emini prices seem to be synchronized today, coming in batches. This must be a new feature. You wait 5-10 seconds and a new batch of prices come in. Anyone else experiencing this new IB feature?

Well ER2 has been moving like the Titanic the last 2 days. It's starting to look a lot like ES. The range has been pretty good but it's taking forever for decent setups to form. I used to get 1-2 points in a heart beat now it's taking 30min.

here we go again. another day blown waiting for IB to get its act together. i can't believe this!!!

Anyone having IB data feed problems today? My TWS appears to update for a few seconds then stalls. It started doing this with version 862.9a. thanks kent

Use rsi for keeping you in the right direction plus a little ergodic and stochastic momentum for timing turns combined with adx to keep you out of the chop will provide a good foundation for a decent system. macd xover is too slow in my opinion. Ensign Software provides pretty good range...

Range charts are awesome but beware of the chop. A friend of mine tears up the market using them but I get killed. Like any other charting system, it takes time to learn all the nuances. The one characteristic of range charts that I absolutely love is the ability to stay in a good trade and...

electric, My method is similar to trader28 but I don’t use minute charts. You can apply the same technique to tick and volume charts. I personally use three volume charts: 7200V for longer term trend, 1800V for trading and 450V for entry. Using the 1800V you’ll get 3 or 5 good trades...
