    I haven' t made derogative statements about TradeProspector - i stated that i had not used it. But i also tried to indicate that the comments that you made in the forum in support of it, made me feel it was crap, so i figured that you were either a really bad marketeing guy for it or a naive...

    Entry strategy for intraday trading

    AIQ may work for end of day, but it is useless for intraday as you cannot save any trendlines, fibs etc. That means you have to set everything up everyday, and if you lose the feed and have to restart it - youl lose everything. It was meant to be some sort of analysis software to give you...

    The fees would depend on whether there was a number of people from day one and they would them become founders, or whether it had to be started and then wait for people. But the point of this sort of place is that everyone gets to share services including high speed connections, which cost...

    the costs are not an issue - but one thing i would say to you - is that you can research all you want - but its more important to start trading on a minimum level and stick to that level - and then you will learn - research is just a waste of time
