That was quite brutal. I read most of it and yes, there are very good insights. A usefull read but you need some theoretical finance/math background to read it. I now understand how pairs trading can be done intraday with black boxes. Putting the traditional pairs trading (correlation based)...

You know what mother fucker? We sure have a problem with the people coming here with no history and bashing on a broker. Registred july 30, first post against IB and nothing else for 20 more. No credibility. Nothing positive, no exchange of information with anyone. get some credibility...

I you use the SMART routing you can reduce your to to 0.70 for 100 shares on average. Sometimes more sometimes less. It depends if you take (market order or an instantly marketable limit order) or provide (getting hit) liquidity. The difference is the cost/rebate for liquidity depending on where...

Facts, I want facts. Some numbers, a print screen of trades, wathever. Otherwise it's only fluf. edit, I should ask for proofs.

It's more :confused: only, WFT does that mean = nothing. I cant drink beer in the street here. Does it mean it is bad? Maybe not, It's legal somewhere else.

I can't say by experience, but if it sounds healthy it's probably not that way.

I dont use PTF. I have my own code.

AT +1 TASC +1 For lifestyle, there used to be The Traders Monthly magazine but it's closed I think.

Just got out of KGC:HMY at a little loss. Was in since july 7. I use EOD data + an intraday update before scanning at around 15:00. It helps if you place your trades before the close. Just give us word when you finish your scanner. We will see if it was that easy.

It maybe ok for a seasoned programer but still a couple of 10 hours. Just think that there are holes (missing dates in one stock and not another) in the Yahoo data and that you have to account for it otherwise all is shifted. Not that easy. And that is assuming that you know the problems in...

It's a market neutral stratery, one short, one long. Plot the graph and it should be obvious.

Just lol.

3 fills, 3 shorts, 1 winner, 2 losers, flat. Cancelled 75%, larger on longs. Watch out, Don is on a breakout above 10k posts :p

I also think this can be interesting. I dont have any need at the moment but a couple years ago I was looking for something like that because I had a code that was taking about 3 weeks to run when I needed the answer overnight. As for the security issue, I dont think that a compiled code...

It's an arb trade; buy on Amazon (-30$), sell on ET (+40) = 10$ minus fess. It's no joke when they say the market is efficient.

I think you have to input your own pairs in the software. In practice, if you review your list every once in a while there is no need to scan all the planet everyday. I do cuz I'm too lazy to look for good pairs and look at only them on a daily basis. I also get a lot of shit in my scan...

The point is not the leverage, it's that they dont track their index 3x on a daily basis but on an intraday basis and a lot of unknowledgeable investors dont know that and are "losing money" and complaining to their brokers so the brokers are just going to stop.

Most guys here have their fixed pairs I think. I scan all the combinations of about 1400 stocks everyday and make the numbers (now cointegration, not correlation). Most use Pair Trade Finder dot com. They seem to like it. I and at least another have our own soft. It's a lot of pain to develop...

I am very consistent at taking profits too early. Out HON:NOC

By Edgar Ortega July 28 (Bloomberg) -- NYSE Euronext will begin to charge brokerages for transactions at the open and close of trading in the U.S., while also cutting fees for its largest clients. The New York Stock Exchange will charge a fee of at least 5 cents per 100 shares for trades...
