Easyrider, are you using a system or discretion? Thanks ~EC

Good for you. Are you trading the e-minis? ~EC

I am currently with IB (great prices) but considering looking at other brokers for faster and easier trade execution. I like PFGBest's order entry system but the tickets are 3 times what I pay at IB. Is there a good broker with a fast system anyone recommends looking into. I trade the NQ only. I...

Wake at 5:30 PST grind beans. Start brewing. Turn on CNBC. Check out overnight levels on NQ Charts. Drink coffee. Check out Pivot points and high and low of yesterday. Check out Island. Drink coffee. Check out Briefing.com. Make sure systems are operational... ping test to servers etc. Opening...

I've recently begun using P&F Charts. Are there any opinions on which indicators within P&F are the most reliable? For those who have Bulowski's book; does he include P&F? Thanks for any information. ~EC

It does help. I don't use RT currently though. I was hoping that there was a realtime updating streamer some where that just gave an volume number. Thank you for your response. ~EC

Who provides realtime numbers or graphs for Naz and BigBoard volume? I'd like to be able to see how fast the volume is building for any intraday period... 1 minute... 5 minute... etc. Thanks ~EC

Thank you very much. ~EC

So do you monitor the futures for a sudden jump and assume the programs are kicking in or is there a more reliable indicator of program trading activity? Thank you. ~EC

"If you add the $$ involved in program trading, then you have an even stronger leading indicator" ... are you saying the program trading kicks in with the difference between FV and the futures? Thanks, ~EC

Anyone know what RealityTrader's open break trade is and how it works? Thanks ~EC

Any chance you have knowledge about this Don? Thanks

I noticed while on Trader's Wire there was a notice sent out every time the programs kicked in. What causes programs to start buying or selling? How do traders see it coming and take advantage of it? Thanks ~EC

Different types of gaps call for different kinds of responses. Exhaustion gaps after a steep run up could mean sell... after a long fall the gap could be a great place to buy. There are some strategies on gap plays at www.stockcharts.com. I am in no way affiliated with the above site but...

www.dacharts.com is a good place to start. You may want to consider just trading stocks 3 times a week instead. If you wait for a clear setups in NQ before buying you won't be trading that often. And if you trade just to get into the action you'll pay for it. Good luck. EC

You are 100% today.... what's to critique? So you took small profits... much better than small losses. :) I too would like to know what charts you are using? Thanks EC

I didn't sign up for the trial period when this thread was started. I went there recently and found that for the time being the trial period has been discontinued. For anyone still using the quotes and charts, are there problems with services? Are you still as happy with their data as you...

I went from trying to trade a universe of stocks to a basket of stocks to the QQQ in order to simplify my life. But, in order to trade the QQQ I needed to monitor the NQ on a couple of time frames. I found when the NQ triggered a buy signal it could move quite significantly, but the move on the...

Try this: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SMACDX or go to www.dacharts.com. There are 3 strategies and links to good stuff there on trading the minis. EC Oh yeah... this probably should be in the Futures section. :)
