Stockfetcher example: "Show stocks where the weekly CCI (14) crossed above 100" They use a natural language syntax so even your mom can use it.

stockcharts.com stockfetcher.com I've used both and they're both good. I liked stockfetcher better technically, plus it's an incredible value for $8.95/month. The thinkorswim platform might be able to do it. They have a custom scripting capability for stock scans.

Oanda allows US clients.

MAE and MFE are very important. If you have a technical signal that you think has an edge, an MAE/MFE analysis can tell you where to place your SL and TP. In other words, you'd analyze price movement after your signal with no SL and TP (or at least very wide). You may find that after your...

LOL can't do tables?

It's a 2-factor authentication method.

Abuse? He earned a very lonely place on my otherwise empty ignore list for spamming every thread I was interested in.

Buy and hold seems to have worked for those in it from 2009

Um let's see. ES options are damned liquid, for one.

Switch to Linux. No need for all that cranky anti-virus crap.

SPY options are super liquid, so liquid that you can day trade them. Instant fills, narrow bid/ask especially if you only use the 2 weeks closest to expiry.

LOL what are you idiots doing holding these when you knew they were going away.

You're definitely overthinking things. You may find reading tea leaves to be more reliable.

Psychologically people are more likely to complain than praise on a message board. Therefore complaints will be over-represented in total postings about IB or any other broker. Also, complaining takes little or no effort. Changing brokers is a major inconvenience and is much less likely.

All the laptops I've worked on are HP. These have a little hatch on the bottom of the case that's easily opened with a Phillips screwdriver. The hard drive sits in the well under the hatch and can be lifted free and disconnected by just unplugging. If the laptop is old enough it may not be SATA.
