Did you ever do that??? I'd think that would really be a crap shoot!

They're trying to make a buck off of my good name!!! But they're spelling it wrong!... Just like all those Coin Laundries :D

In my experience, it's a crap shoot. I've seen it work real well sometimes and real bad others. However, with prudent money management and quick fingers (or automated software, there is potential).

If you like cold calling, this is the position for you! A friend of mine went with Amex to do the same thing. He took all the tests, got all his licenses, and then was ready to start. He had been layed off from Ericsson and IBM and had the idea that he wanted to organize presentations to...

Go ahead and post... Googling Trade-Ideas.com only brings up your website.

If you need to go another route, you may want to consider using VB as you already have the code for it. If you like using the Excel interface, you could probably put an Excel Control on a VB form.

Sounds like you're trying to do some very time-sensitive stuff such as scalping based on the latest bid/ask or last. If that's the case, then you are correct. But if that's the case, keep in mind that you are competing with the big boys at that level. And in that case, you need to have some...

I have done a number of automated applications with Excel. It's good for getting something out quick. You also want to make sure you put in safeguards, like checks to make sure that what should have been executed gets executed, what should have been cancelled gets cancelled, if quotes stop...

This morning, there was an announcement on the possibility of another incident of MAD COW disease. Most of the news services have this out by 10:10am. The earliest I can find is Dow Jones with a blurb at 9:50am. But look at the usual Mad Cow suspects: MCD, WEN, OSI, TSN, SFD, etc. and it...

What does this do for you... it seems to give a lot of alerts... how do you separate the wheat from the chaf?

What scans do you like best from TI?

There should be a "next" button at the bottom.

You can use the history function to get old alerts. Try that.

OK, I thought you did. can someone please let us know the scoop on this?

Yeah, but then you have to get realtick and the prices add up in a big way. If that's the case, and you need something custom, I'd just fo with Neovest FirstAlert... would probably be about the same cost.

I'll second that and the info they have a glossary that is packed with useful info on context for the alerts... an informative education in itself: http://www.trade-ideas.com/Glossary/ Cash

I try to stay out of these, but I just have to interject one fact. I have sat down to eat with both Don and "siesen" at the same time and at the same table. They were two completely different individuals (ok, it was in Don's heavier days, so maybe it was 3 if you count Don as two :D ), and...

You know the specialists are really scrambling when they do something like this: [Q] The Securities and Exchange Commission has approved a New York Stock Exchange proposal to change the way odd-lot orders are priced and executed systemically. Before the change, odd–lot orders did not...

I didn't know if it might have come out as a special event. Probably have to run it for a few days through a few events. Did it catch the tobacco news this morning?

ARRGGHH! Temporary Brain Malfunction (at least I HOPE it's temporary). Try this: http://www.triggernews.com/ Cash
