Can you guys load the IB url this morning? Keeps timing out for me :(

WarEagle, That is an idea. Something like AmiBroker could probably do the type of scan I am looking for the night before. Then I would just have to figure out how to get IB to link to an excel spreadsheet. Anyone know of some documentation on how this could be done? Thanks, David

Hello Everyone, I need some help with this so I am going to describe what I have been working on. Using Excel, I have created a strategy which requires buying a stock at the opening price and selling at close. There are many factors used to determine if I should buy a particular stock; one...

Thanks for everyones replys. After looking at all the options I think its safest to just stay out of the market. I will not have to worry about it and if it crashes for whatever reason I will be safe. Oh and for the one thats against the war. You stated you use to be in the military...

Hey everyone, I will be deploying really soon. Have a question for some of you. Think I should keep my money in the market or just stay out completely. I wont be able to watch it at all. If I should keep it in what are some good stocks? Also any other ideas?

True Enough. I cant seem to find any good longs for tommorow.. :/

I believe he was posting about "Get out with a profit." I should have. Instead i buy mroe and it turns into a loss. Was a nice lesson learned the hard way.

my ol stop loss was hit at 10.90.. Took a nice loss :/ well about 2% My capital is now down to 3448.. Gee... :mad:

What do you guys think of AMD? If i had the money I would buy a position in it right now. Nice stop loss of about 5.. very small risk and potential of nice payoff.. As for my AOL it looks to be hanging right around 11.. Hopefully it goes up before close and doesnt break my sl of 10.90

Oh My stop for aol is 10.90

Today: I sold out my MXO at 6.13 I sold out PD at: 36.099 Bought 200 shares of AOL at 11.19. Now holding: 290 AOL So far I am up about $70 or about 2%.. Tommorow Will be my 4th day trading.. Oh I lost on the PD the others have been winners so far...

Changed SL on aol to 10.90... This was the price bought in at.
