    Executing order at a 'specific time'...

    Funny you should ask this question as this was something that I discovered only recently. Thinkorswim and TradeStation both offer this capability. Actually, many other brokers / platforms probably do as well if you explore the advanced order capabilities.

    So I gave TOS another try, invested numerous hours in getting familiar, customizing my workspaces, coding indicators, etc. I actually like it quite a bit now and am pleasantly surprised about its capabilities. Did you change your TOS memory settings on your login screen? That seems to have...

    Extra Monitor on a laptop?

    Check your connections to your laptop. Many laptops have both HDMI and VGA out. If that's the case, you can typically connect 2 monitors, provided you have monitors that have those connections. But even if you have a monitor that only accepts VGA or DVI and you needed to use your HDMI port...

    Is Peter L Brandt talking out of both sides of his ass on BTC?

    Well, he's part of the bitcoin live site so that may impact his objectivity.

    Good deal. Lots of RAM and a solid state drive are critical to running trading software! I assume you have that in your computer. I actually used to use TOS but haven't in a while. But I recent did a RAM upgrade so I may take another look at it. Best wishes!

    Just curious where you ended up. I don't trade like you do (I'm a macro theme swing trader for the most part) but use a combination of TradeStation and TC2000. As you know, there are pros and cons to any software. I was a bit intimidated with TradeStation at first but gradually figured...

    SP500 Only

    Well, ST buy signal played out initially. I guess the operative words were "short term!" Just watching at the moment and hoping the SPX Blaster is still short!

    I had ST buy signal at close yesterday and still seems to be in place.

    SP500 Only

    My short-term momentum is still up at the moment. May be getting closer to bellister's 3020 POC. SPX Blaster -- note that your cycle high really may come on 9/24 and then we see the move lower.

    Wells Fargo makes it official: Big banks are getting in on cryptocurrency

    Makes it even more likely that McAfee will not win his bet.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't your cycles actually suggest a move higher into Sept. 14 and then lower?

    Medium Term Trading of SP500 with Cycle Analysis

    Yes -- I actually had USDCAD on my monthly "short" watch list but missed the entry.

    Medium Term Trading of SP500 with Cycle Analysis

    That one is less obvious to me but let's see what the cycles do!

    The narrower your time cycle focus, the more variability you're probably going to get.

    Medium Term Trading of SP500 with Cycle Analysis

    I had oil come up on my charts too yesterday as a long trade. Pretty "slick" analysis! :D

    Medium Term Trading of SP500 with Cycle Analysis

    Sounds good. I understand the margin for error. That's where I think my oscillator work comes in as I won't take a trade unless those line up for me. So don't worry, I won't blame you or the cycles. But like today in AUDUSD, I think when a cycle supports something I'm seeing it just gives me...
