The morning open is the price discovery phase. You have 17.5 hours of no trading(stocks). I swing trade and I pretty much check my account at the open and that’s usually my gains/losses for the day after first 30 minutes. Day trading would drive me nuts. The open is where the moves happen...

I did hear a couple podcast on “Better System Trader” with Michael Cook, Kevin Davey and Larry’s Williams about competing for world trading champion. They all mentioned they don’t trade their real accounts like that. The competition forces you to lever up and go big or go home.

If you just need historic EOD and updated in evening of current day, check out Norgate Premium Data. They have a delisted stocks package aswell. I know their plugin for Amibroker even has a historical index constituent watchlist. Not sure if this is a function in their downloaded. Refinitiv...

I didn’t realize how bad some information can be out there. I watched a couple videos for some stuff on Amibroker, now my YouTube feed is filled with turn 2K into 100k videos. Some are ridiculous with how many subscribers and views they get.

In case of buying, it’s just a limit order above the ask, vice versa for selling. The idea is that market orders are literally just blank cheque’s. See enough flash crashes and odd spikes, theirs no reason not to use a marketable limit order. If their is a market below the limit price it will...

I know literally nothing about options but isn’t this idea more of a “losing” psycholigical problem. If “x” trade is losing and you open “y” legs to offset losses.... wouldn’t it just be the same to close trade “x” and open trade “y” or just be flat. Seems like I see these option threads all...

Does it mention anything about placement? Thought it was just advertised as the same training they give their prop traders except you could pay to access the training. Ive heard highly of them from some podcast, can’t think of names right now. Two were ex traders for them, one I beliebe did...

It’s not that it’s oversupplied, it’s because they don’t have access to Canadian markets Lol. Our quota system is questionable but it beats subsidizing.

As an electrician it seemed weird that you mentioned a UPS not switching fast enough. Guess cyberpower has a few different setups. https://www.cyberpowersystems.com/blog/how-does-a-ups-work/ The double conversion style as they call it is what I’m use to installing. The idea is your always...

If your using Sierra Chart I'm certain they have a way for you to define timezones and exchange times. From my quick trial with it a long time ago it was very customizable. Where the issue will pop up is with them most likely using 1 minute data or tick data to create a Daily bar. Like...

Norgate , CSI, Tingo, Barchart, plenty of others, pick your poison. If your just looking for U.S stocks I'd give a good look at Norgate. Seems to get high reviews from those that use it.

I meant your charting software. I know for instance with Amibroker it’s required to set time zones depending on timestamps of data. This becomes important when using for instance 1min data and trying to compress to daily bars. Need to set time zones, timestamps, hours of trading, extended hours...

I see an opportunity maybe to get in on one of those awesome duck and or dove hunts in Argentina. Seen these videos where theirs so many birds you have a guide or two whose only job is to reload shotguns for you. Almost looks to easy .

Might help if you mention your platform/data source. Generally in my experience most platforms have a time setting somewhere and hopefully for specific symbols.

Unless I missed it, it’s just a typical chart that moves off the last price. In a liquid market it may appear to move with bid/ask but it’s just moving off the last trade price .

The article I read from CBC mentioned it was weird that they didn’t sell the debt to a third party. I thought that was the standard anyway. Sell the junk debt to someone that’s willing to harass the debt holder to death. We have Equifax and Transunion up here. I don’t know the details but as...

Your first post says it’s a “Regulatory issue”. I’m sure customer service could point you to some documentation.

Not an IB user but I’m guessing market orders are rejected in extended hours trading. Never tried myself( always use marketable limit orders). Don’t think any stock exchange accepts a market order during extended hours. If you want to participate in the open auction, their should me a MOO (...

Don’t think a hard percent is the right way to approach. You need some volatility/ATR metric. A weed stock moves quite a bit more then a bank stock. Personally investing I just average into index ETF’s. Another issue is correlation. Most stocks are highly correlated. Some outliers might be...
