Spoken like a true ca...... Nevermind. :cool:

1) I appreciate your Tom Popa reference. :D 2) Most of the time, when you hear, "fat-finger mistake," it wasn't really a fat finger miss-typing an intended number, but a fat *brain* miss-conceiving what needed to happen. Then you hit (or mistakenly hit) "Go!" and a nanosecond later, the light...

These things are fanTAStic. One of my favs: TRUTH!!! Or, this!!!

:wtf::wtf::wtf: Ohhhhh! *Now* you're gonna get it! :rolleyes: :D

The oil group is up because Stable Genius wrote sanctions rather than launch orders. Flows' dangers ease, redundancy costs and inventory costs fall, shipping costs drop...... Life is smooth and wonderful.

Often done conceptually, to see what sticks. :D

Keep in mind that the people who trade like you are implying, are no longer here to comment. o_O

It sounds like you're on the verge of a breakthrough right now -- but here's one thing I would investigate: what of the paths of FV and the difference between FV and IV? This [increased variance] would be my first suspicion, but are they in fact offset (instead of aligned)? So, a plot of FV...

Your ability to trade outside RTH is dependent on you specifying that in your order specs. So, 'elect' this in your [Global Config} set-up. (There are a few places which you need to hit, too -- be patient and search 'em all out.)

I don't know a Connors -- might be a fine guy -- but the RSI is from Welles Wilder -- it's the no-talent cousin to the much much better ADX. (Which never gets no love.)

"The advised approach" is unmitigated Idiocy. :wtf: I have no idea how it came to be. There is little coverage of those who developed the indicators that are really behind it all -- Bollinger, Appel, Wilder -- NONE of them ever said anything like "ONLY USE THESE PARAMETERS." I do have a tape...

Whoops -- I just noticed that this thread (is/will be) planted in the Options forum -- not the simple 'trend-following' subject matter I'd first thought. So again, the OP wishes for: • trend-exploiting • 'religious' application • consistent income generation • end-of-day/NOT-nose-to-screen...

He made an elementary point (actually, three of them), and you missed 'em.

If you sit down with a day's candle graph and play with the available "technical indicators" you can come up with a number of interesting 'possibles' to play with. Start with a MACD -- broadly hated, but very much NOT understood. PLAY with it.

Given TWS (and the API's) issues with time and data accumulation in specific bits, having an outside imposition of time might really avoid a good number of problems. :thumbsup::thumbsup:

In thinking about it just now, *your* comment suggests to me a possibly easy way to do it: divide the data-writing into two steps: • have the API write the full row, and then generate a signal to a "row-writer". • upon seeing that signal (like, "EOL"="Y"), the "row-writer" would copy ALL values...

:D

"SOES" happened. DMA brokers happened. WE happened. Investors used to send orders hoping to be filled before the end of the week -- then the end of the day. Traders used to move on orders within the week and within the day -- and it was child's play to discern trends and ranges and turns. A...

I appreciate what you're saying, but still, the short term paper has dropped "like an anvil" over the past 36 hours. Given all the triggers currently in the news, this bodes *well* for the market?? REGARDLESS, WE'VE BREACHED THE TOP OF THE ORIGINAL POST: I wish this was based more upon...
