    Any Charts that I can feed my own market data?

    I'm looking to source real time data (like polygon.io) and feed it to the charting software. I'm willing to write an adapter to simulate whatever the data source is currently supported by charting software. The goal is to have fast (non-pulsed) intra-day charts. I would also like to be able to...

    I agree with all the other points you made, but above is exactly what we look for.

    Runners Vs. Set Target to exit

    I know the feeling :) I question myself if it's the best action for long term or am I getting into a bad habit. 2:1 requires too high of a wining rate, imho, to be profitable "enough" over the long haul. Just something to keep in mind ... you are taking adverse outliers (due to uncontrollable...

    Wrong border, but still nothing to be proud of.

    Yeah, like ready, aim, fired. I grew up on the other side of your border. You should know better.

    Scarcity vs. Abundance is the choice you make in your mind. It's going to sound preachy, but I think you are making it harder on yourself than necessary. "You are exactly where you need to be." - Zen saying.

    DayTrading the VIX/S&P

    By valid, you mean - can it be profitable? Sure any strategy can be made profitable, just not always profitable. There is LOTS of noise in intra-day moves, so it's hard to find real edges, imho. If you don't have that real edge, you can still make money by getting a feel for the market you...

    Warrior Trading/Timothy Sykes stock choices

    I don't know about Sykes, but I follow Ross. He is super transparent which is very commendable. If you think he simply pumps his stocks then join his chatroom and front run him. I ve read someone bragging about this. You will most likely not have the skills to do it. Hm ... Sadly I agree with...

    OMG interactive brokers charts are HORRIBLE!

    Who doesn't? Don't misunderstand me, foreign and cheap(relatively speaking) doesn't necessarily mean low quality. The problem is there is no loyalty or pride of ownership anymore. This is what happens when you hire mercenaries. But hey, we are in a gig economy ... Yey!

    Developers building their way up to traders

    What exactly are you guys calling a "start up hedge fund?" Are you trying to assemble group of traders with complementary strategies or just looking for OPM? Or both?

    Very disappointed with Sterling Trader Pro's delays, looking for alternatives

    I hear you. What bothers me is that there's no incentive for the retail broker to be better. No skin in the game. The slower/dumber the flow, the better.

    OMG interactive brokers charts are HORRIBLE!

    I can bet you, there's some config setting which is impossible to find and no support person knows about it :)

    OMG interactive brokers charts are HORRIBLE!

    Can you at least give us an alternative? Preferably something you use and you yourself pay for. Include mkt data source and execution options.

    OMG interactive brokers charts are HORRIBLE!

    I repectfully disagree. It costs a lot of money to build and mantain all the features. Do I want to pay higher commissions or platform fees so that the platform has a thousand useless indicators? No! I believe there are third party add on to IB, like DAS that have better charts. Like many...

    Very disappointed with Sterling Trader Pro's delays, looking for alternatives

    Unless you run two platforms side by side, it's hard to know for sure who's at fault. I suggest you run two side by side and record on video. Make sure it's apples to apples. Just open level2 window and no charts. Then add a single intra-day chart to each. The more GUI windows you have opened...
