Paying them to work on less than they could get on unemployment isn't either. People are going to accept that shit long term? Guess there's enough idiots in the US. Unionize! ;)

Any easy how tos or example code?

Visual alert. Easy example though though this is not what I actually want: 20 ma crosses 50 ma and RSI < 20 on stock AMZN and no alert was signalled last hour then display a message on screen. Maybe send an email also

Thanks but I don't want to pay extra charting fees. Prefer to use just the ib API alone.

What's the best way to go about programming an auto alert in IB based on price, indicators, etc.? I want to be alerted but not necessarily take the trade automatically I have some programming experience but not sure whether to use their API or something else. I would need to brush up on Java or...

Leveraged short are rebalanced daily usually. So if the market goes rangey or sideways you'll be losing money. VIX was at 80 in March so if we get another turn off events you could be under water a while

How many are you planning on cancelling and reordering per minute? Per second? I would say unless it's thousands like spoofing then there's no problem

Err so you are trading options?!

Cramer?! Guy's full of bs

Hmm then that is a little bizarre. Margin should not change that much. Just tell them your positions and ask why the individual stock changed. Usually this is done with an advance announcement

Yeah but then you're getting short and getting out and reversing if so. The truly bad day with that strategy is a ranging one that bounces off s and r multiple times.

I tend to think that although earnings will be absolutely terrible, there has to be some other catalyst for a crash. Second wave, population debt, housing, etc. and we're not seeing it quite yet though there are rumblings. In the absence of that we could be in a range (albeit much lower than...

not really. Trend days work with moving averages and your can base it a bit on the strength of the move, news, sentiment. You sell on a retrace to the ma

Trend days are the best, you can literally get in anywhere

There's an option when you right click called 'performance' that shows you the PL

Lot of local businesses closing down. Really a transfer of wealth to big business... until the little guy can't afford what they're selling

Cash covered put doesn't make a difference, they base it on the volatility and price of the option. Check their margin webpage. I believe they liquidate the nearest dated options
