I've been trading the ES, DX, Euro, gold and other futures for about 2yrs.. Plan is to absorb as much info from the sources I listed and pratice with paper trading on my other computer. Thanks for the warning though, I had a similar wake up call when I started with gold futures a while ago.

thanks, I have two books that I am going to read front to back, and see where I am at then. Also going thru the free CBOE online stuff. We'll see where I am at once this homework is finished. Thanks for the replies everybody.

Thank you for the invite, I am in Fl, USA though. Just chatted with an Investools rep., 16K for basics and up to 28k for advanced options calsses... Really?? I have found it interesting ever since I graduated college and had my first job, they teach you how to make the money but never what...

thanks, im in the classes there already. Im trying to soak it up. Plus I have 2 books on options that I am reading in the next couiple of weeks "getting started in options" and "options made easy".

Where would you guys recomend going to learn about options as in books, online courses, etc.. CBOE, Investools, books, etc???

Do you guys really care if the etf you are interested in goes up or goes down as long as you get decent movement in either direction? Same goes for futures 1256 contracts like ES or GC 6B etc.. (plus nice tax status) setting aside our current sideways market condition.

Sweet trade right into pivot,

Gold just filled it's 1239s gap from tuesday of this week. Anybody have any thoughts on that gap fill and the bounce off a 38.2 fib from 1211.7- 1256.6?

Typical story it sounds like. TD is really screwing the pooch here, unless the just leave the 1678 which is fine. I wonder how many of the old TOS guys are still there or if they brought in there own half a$$ techie children?

Not sure about the splash page options to be honest, I just relaoded all my styles and drawings via the saved style/draw functions, still a pain though. I'm just glad to have the active trader back to normal.. Suprised to see those 1037/40's still holding.. figured 3rd tap and boom

Good call on the rverse to the 1678.. I'm glad! Except every damn chart I had up has to be redrawn...

Nice, thanks for the update. I would appreciate them doing that and then just leave it alone!

Yeah, saw something about the highs and lows being incorrect. I made a trade earlier in 10am range in the futures and all went fine so I am not sure what's up. Limits both went through fine. Prob sit out the rest of the day though till this is fixed.

Looks like new update as of my 6amEST... We'll see

Ha! I say...

No he didn't he just said I could move things around to set it up like I used to have it, which is a load of bs... Since I can't move the buttons back to where they were. Anyhow, you said something about switching? All I trade now are the ES and GC, would you recomend a different platform? I...

Yeah, well that expalins why rep was so quick to get off the chat.. Also the newlayout for active trader kinda sucks.. Liked the other layout, plus was used to it. No reason to push itover the chart like that for dead space in the bracketing rows. Poor call. All downhill since TD... Rick -...

I just set up and new comp for trading only and had everything perfect until the update. Now 2 of the current 6 mons on the new comp are still dark, but the 4 new 22" (eventually 8 22"s) are now lighter, like the brightness is up, all the settings in the Nvidia panel are the same, and the 22"s...

Bolimomo - thanks for the follow up dude. I finally got it going by swapping the ram around and pulling the cards, like you said. I am using SATA seemed to be my noob mistake of putting it all in instead of going one at a time. I have all the 6Gb of ram in now so I will start adding cards now. I...

nice, up and running. got TOS downloaded, put the rest of the ram in 6gig, sweet!
