    Which equities data feed to determine trade aggressor?

    Right, you can’t get it perfect, so how did you determine that there’s a lag between the two?

    GILD

    Thanks for the kind words. I obviously didn’t know for sure, but what I do know is that smart money don’t like to be the bag holders. When are they bag holders? When black swan events happen. Do they panic and get out at lows? No, they use their powers to prop stocks back so they can rebalance...

    Oliver Velez and iFundTraders (scam proofs)

    I was not in any of his private programs so I didn’t see him trade daily. However, during one of the live afternoon sessions some news hit. He asked us to wait and started trading AAPL. That was amazing to watch ... like taking a candy from a baby - was over in a few minutes. I use “amazing”...

    Oliver Velez and iFundTraders (scam proofs)

    Well, I was not sure if I wanted to talk about this, giving the hostile environment, but I feel like I need for full disclosure. After this thread started, I decided it was time to put my money where my mouth was. I knew of Oliver from Prestine days, not personally, just from free material and...

    Please help a newb with Platform and Tools

    I also live in vim, and that is why I will recommend DAS Trader which is third party software that allows you to trade with IB. It's not free, but very flexible with hot keys. Since you are a tech geek, it is only a matter of time before you start looking into IB API, so you can do things the...

    Objective vs Subjective: Trading Performance Affects my Mood Too Much

    I know exactly how you feel. My guess is there is too much riding on your performance. Someone I respect a lot said trading should be meaningless. In other words, you should only care about following your plan and adjusting it based on new knowledge and experience. This will take time, so you...

    Looking for automated trade bot developer

    Three questions out of curiosity - 1) why don't you use it? How often are these alerts generated? 2) if you are in the software business, don't you have access to developers? Many are REST based API. 3) Why don't you dump your business and concentrate on making 100-400% per week instead...

    Does any PROP offers a VERTICAL DEPTH of MARKET tool (DOM or ladder) for US stocks? Please help!

    @piyayo , may I ask what instruments you trade via DOM? It appears DOM order entry is more popular with Futures where there's a centralized market, but not so much with equities.

    Conceptually define your trading edge

    I agree with what you said in your post, but have you ever witnessed a day when above strategy is unable to dump out of shares? Such days are rare, but they wipe out months of profits in the BEST-case scenerio. God forbid you have them clustered. In my mind averaging down is risk:reward...

    RH 50% of all new accounts

    Oh, the link I provided is just related to the topic. I don't know where OP got the statistics. It appears some people are sitting at home getting unemployment benefits and speculating. I have a friend who never was interested in stock market before but all of the sudden became a swing trader...

    DAILY Video Journal: Trade Recap + Watchlist Review

    I think it's because your video has that BS feel to it that we see here often. Welcome, and prove us wrong. Identifying stop levels (or whatever money management is used) ahead of time would add credibility. I don't think it's in the video, but maybe I missed it.

    Darvas Box Revisited

    I don't think his method is applicable to intra-day trading, imho.

    Nice. I assume you will not provide market data via API.

    Broker says he has power of attorney to buy futures for 14 accounts

    Lol, no back peddling ... I thought that was a very good post. Not saying it's factual, but definitely was a conflict of interest there.
