    Why MB trading is not cheaper than Oanda for scalpers that trade at market.

    ROFL I find it ridiculous how you guys "forget" to say that this is only true in case of EUR/USD .... including all the three other above mentioned "IF"-s

    Why MB trading is not cheaper than Oanda for scalpers that trade at market.

    Additionally, even with these IFs Oanda is only cheaper if one trades exclusively EUR/USD. In have no experience with MB, but with IB one can scalp definitely much cheaper than Oanda in case of AUD/USD, GBP/USD, USD/CHF (all of them with a spread of 0.5-1 pip), and many others too (like...

    The final collapse of the US dollar it is just around the corner

    Seems you have not understood anything about the whole thing. It is not about the growth of US Electrical Consumption at all. This was just an example, and he actually said in the video, that "fortunately this 7% yearly growth had stopped" You just need to listen carefully instead of...

    The final collapse of the US dollar it is just around the corner

    Double check his numbers? LOL. It is a basic mathematic function, the same that is behind the "power of compounding" beloved by traders. It is the simple truth behind the illusion of the sustainability of an economy based on eternal growth. Nothing special. It has to collapse, because it is...

    IB - Booktrader 906 no more single click!

    As said, I have been using them for a long time now. But reconfigured some of them shortly, and it is the same: they do immediate execution, checking the "armed" box. I am surprised your do not work. And yes, they are under the quote panel and above the ladder.

    IB - Booktrader 906 no more single click!

    You can still create a button in BT with immediate execution. I have been using this all the time.

    InteractiveBrokers TWS: can no longer login with SSL

    I am not able to use SSL frome Europe. I edited the jts.ini file with UseSSL=true, and tried the peers gw1.ibllc.ch:400 and gw4.ibllc.com:400, but they do not work with SSL. Is there any European trader with a working TWS SSL connection to IB? Could someone provide the name of a European...

    Consequences for Japan

    Maybe you should educate yourself a bit... You cannot judge radiation exclusively by the levels. You have to consider what particle causes it. It makes a big difference, if it is caused by iodine, caesium or plutonium, if it gets into your body. The consequencies are not the same at all...

    New York Fed Intervenes In Currency Markets

    Where have you ever seen a free market, or anything just remotely resembling to it? Surely not in the currency markets. Get real. Free market is just a another utopy, the same way as communism is one.

    QuoteTracker To Be Finished End of 2011

    I have used QT with Linux, and traded with IB. Both of them work without any issues on Linux. Some years ago I read Jerry Medved writing on a forum, that as long as he would be involved with QT; it would always run on Linux (but only through wine). Unfortunately enough he is not involved...

    QuoteTracker To Be Finished End of 2011

    I have only tried and compared Neoticker and AmiBroker with IB feed, which might not be the best option for NT. AB charts load much faster, and new indicators apply faster. I am not sure how it would be with other feeds. Backtesting is also very fast with AB, but this I have not really...

    Best Broker/Platform for Mac User?

    IB TWS works flawlessly both with Mac and Linux. For charting ProRealTime is good, but comes with a proprietary feed. QuoteTracker runs fine through wine, but will become unsupported from the end of 2011 on. AmiBroker is an excellent, programmable charting, backtesting platform. Runs...

    QuoteTracker To Be Finished End of 2011

    I have been trying out charting packages since I heard this sad news. I tried Sierra, NeoTicker, Multicharts and Ninja. AmiBroker I had already known a bit, having played around with it some years ago. Now I decided to stay with AmiBroker and pay for the professional version. I trade...

    QuoteTracker To Be Finished End of 2011

    That's very bad news, QT is one of the best programms I have found until now, both in terms of functionality as of efficiency. It is also one of the few charting applications that one can connect to IB and work well on Linux. Actually I would pay a higher monthly fee in order to be able to...

    144 tick charts

    Also, spitting 144 times on your hand before clicking the mouse to buy/sell is the best method against overtrading. :cool:

    How is QT in IB vs TWS?

    I use QT for charting and IB's BookTrader for execution. A really great combo, IMO.
