Mine hasn't. Still no info on ES NQ ER2 EUR JPY. This has happened at least 3x since last month. Quite annoying and no bulletin or anything.

chugani, what you need to do is the following: 1) Watch the market - ES, NQ, YM, CL and eventually, you will see a behavioural pattern (support, resistance, breakouts, etc) througout the day. 2) Manage your money well. Do not get greedy and do not overleverage. Never be too sure about a...

Unless you're dyslexic, the OP's point is centered around a trader that in 3 years was able to hit 1 million P&L for that year (2007). Unless you did as well as Szeven did in such a short amount of time, I'm pretty sure the OP doesn't give a flying fuck what you have to offer.

I'm a bit tempted to just upgrade but I got a feeling bad things could happen. Has anyone upgraded to SP3 on an XP machine yet with TWS installed?

USO would be the closest tracker to the WTIC I think. I have sold 20 USO 100 calls expiring next week. I'll probably have my head handed to me :D

I don't know about other brokers but I'm fairly confident with IB's TWS encryption + my safekey. I've traded in a remote island in the Philippines, in coffee shops in singapore, in a restaurant in Patpong Thailand, etc. I'm pretty sure I haven't been hacked just yet :) But, I do make sure...

You're clearly a loser in trading. It's not whether you're a bear or bull - it's whether you're making money or not. Everything else is irrelevant.

13 NQ points and he jizzed himself.

SHUT THE FUCK UP ALREADY.

There's always a chance he could get it. Sure. But, would you tell your kid to quit school and just play basketball 'cause you know,1 out of 50,000 kids end up being in the NBA anyways. I give advice based on the probability that he can make it or not. There's always the chance he'd get it...

After 8 years of trading and you still haven't had a profitable year, I'd say hang it up. The OP just doesn't have the psychological capacity for daytrading. To the OP: You just might have a gambling problem. If I lose at trading for 8 years straight, I wouldn't be on it. Imagine, if you...

I'm travelling and logged in using my shitty Vodafone 3G dongle which has been spotty at best. So I'm not sure if it's IB that crapped out or something ain't right with this? I can get to other sites but I don't quite trust this Vodafone mobile broadband. Can someone confirm?

Yes. there are contracts for ES, YM, ER2, NQ, etc. if that's what you're asking. It just depends on your broker if they offer them. I think Thinkorswim will be offering it soon but IB has had it since I moved my account there.

Go for an MBA with any of the top 10 schools and possibly include Darden, Fuqua, etc. The deal with people saying an MBA is useless comes from a few things: 1) Successful businessman / trader that was spurned by the schools and basically are stuck in a mindset that I have accomplished what I...

On the same note, I haven't seen as much prostitutes lurking in high end bars as there are in NYC. I used to travel there for business quite a bit but didn't like it all that much after a trip or two. I much prefer DC or Chicago to be honest. Chicago being my #1 if I had to rank them.

I'm not the greatest of traders but I haven't had a down month in about year or so I think (went fulltime a little over a year ago). So yes, this is possible. The only time you encounter disaster in most cases is by your own doing - over leveraging, refusal to take a loss, etc. I think if you're...

Funny, I was just starting a new thread with the same question about that parabolic move on oil. I'm short oil now, just 1 CL contract at 114 with stop at 117.8... With the move on Euro, and gold, I find it strange and mind boggling oil recovered all it's losses today and even made it way...

Louis is full of shit. I tried 1.5 and it freezes it still.

Not mine. IB must think their customers don't work much like their quality control people.

Besides the ugly one (cayman) they make, they have other kinds of flip flops that are wonderfully comfortable and perfect for beach wear or summer wear. Light and good traction. I bought a pair of their regular flip flops, I think it's worth the money for what I paid for it. I definitely...
