Maybe Abu Dhabi got an eTrade account.

This stock is falling hard ..... but huge buy orders keep coming in around 11.60 - 11.70, so it is holding up, yesterday and this morning. By huge - I mean a block of 2 million - 4 million shares popping in and out on ISLAND. Fascinating .... never seen anything like it on L2

lol, this is Elite Trader, and my post is the 7th ever, to mention the calmar ratio. It is a great performance metric.

Isn't that the Calmar Ratio? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calmar_Ratio If you are a good high-frequency trader, yeah you should get 5 or better. If you trade like stock_trad3r, buy & hope, you will be lucky to get 1 ....

Well I've only been trading two years .... but I did notice the same thing last summer.

Trading stocks .... seems to be a lot of drift, less opportunity to scalp countertrend. Not making the usual $$$ there. Trading futures .... no different

Here's a good movie you never saw: The Wrong Guy http://film.ispwn.com/2008/04/29/the-wrong-guy-the-funniest-comedy-you-never-saw/

I can tell you the IB time is pretty accurate (a few seconds off is possible though). So it is important to have an accurate system clock, and most are not. The problem is due to ACPI, and becomes worse if you have dual core / quad core / multiple processors. My clock was losing 2 minutes per...

Yep anything after 4pm for futures is overnight, and with IB you really gotta get out by 3:50pm. Unbundled is only a better deal if you do a lot of volume.

In my experience, IB starts auto liquidating futures at around 3:50 or 3:51pm if you aren't meeting the overnight margin.

Ok back on topic ..... this chart is a perfect series of higher lows, followed by a break downward in mid-March. Run this type of analysis on multiple time frames, and then you really got something.

Ok that is the final bar, how about the other 150 or 200 bars?

Anyone know where to get a list of new 52 week high/lows for a given day, for free? I am an IQfeed subscriber, but I don't think that will help, short of downloading a couple years worth of data.

If he ran as an independent, he would probably booted out of his congressional committees. He is in as a Republican and it's a good ol' boys club. Then he wouldn't get to grill Ben Bernanke about monetary policy and fun stuff like that ...

The fed causes all these bubbles, not the American public. The fed and easy "fractional reserve" credit creates all the excess cash. Everyone prospers, and would be stupid to not buy up stock, and bid real estate up into the stratosphere.... but it starts with the fed .... it is a cycle ... it...
