TS cost me about 3 bills today. My question is to those experienced traders who have left TS in the past 5 years. First: I have used E signal, TD ameritrade, Scott elite, Quotetracker, IB charts. I have come back to TS 3 times...all for the same reason. I left them twice before for...

Trader, knowledge like that could transform you into an intra day trader, if you are not already one. :)

Way to go tradestation. 1 week before I drop my redundant E signal, and you can't keep up with the fucking volume!! E signal gets the nod... I hate trading fucking blind.

LOL. I love it. ET is always entertaining. I also agree with this sentiment. Robbie380, you've made my day. Thanks!

Based on what has happened since this post, we should now restrict all trading since it isn't just the pikers crying and complaining about the losses. It's all the big boys now...the ones crying for, and receiving bailouts at my expense, and yours. The ones who had up to 40-1 margin or more...

Finally quite trying to fight the 25k min a few months back. Reduced to 5k to trade the ym and presto...margin gets jacked to 7k at both my brokers. Said "fuck it". Tired of feeding the account. Just swing trading. Making money, but missing some fantastic intraday opportunities. Almost...

UPDATE: Axelrod says the same in a statement: "I was mistaken when I told an interviewer last month that the President-elect has spoken directly to Governor Blagojevich about the Senate vacancy. They did not then or at any time discuss the subject." Why would he say that? I hadn't given...

My question to the politicians asking the questions today. How many of you drove to DC from your home towns? Any? Arrogant fucking hypocrites. Especially Dodd.

It will never happen, though it would be a good idea. Nothing like having an informed vote cancelled by an uninformed vote. How bout being able to name your rep, your senator, the leaders of the house and senate, the prez and vp nominees, and the party each belongs to? Would that be...

If Paulson shows his face on TV, I will add to my shorts, if he doesn't I will tighten the stops to cover.

Listed or Nasdaq. They will not apply the share number from pink sheet or BB stocks. At least they didn't in the past.

Started career with TD in 2002, went to Scott, then Tradestation and IB in tandem. Used E signal for awhile with IB in place of TS. Dropped IB and used TS then added IB back in. TS has a messed up approach to day trade rules if your account is under 25k. Forget scaling in and out. 3...

Not likely, but it would be fun to hear the extreme whining, wailing, and gnashing of the MS media teeth if it were so. Of course they would instantly turn on him...or not (wouldn't be PC)...which would make it even more fun. How could they overcome their own PC and egos to turn on their...

Actually, yes. Picked up a little something out of the energy sector today...just a taste for now.

I am opposed to cameras on many fronts when it comes to traffic and other issues, especially when gov is involved. I went to Tucson, and if you are in the intersection when the light turns red, you'll get a ticket in the mail. On the other hand, red light running here in Florida results in...

They are always great at telling why the market did what it did. They fail in explaining why it did the opposite they said it would.

I was thinking another 10% or so to 1253. Certainly not a disaster, but another decent leg down. Edit: I was indicating if the sox level fails, NASD goes lower, just to clarify

I know a lot of people are watching the S & P, but check the SOX. Testing a low from oct 98. If it fails, see ya later NASD...

Considering that we hit an area where technicians were waiting to buy while others would cover, add in a further short squeeze ahead of the g20, also perhaps a rumor to be bought, so to speak, and you have ample reason for a bear rally. Just my opinion. Enough technicians create self...

Yes. Very similar. Combined with RSI.
