Great call. As you can see, there is a lot of nibbling on the long side at these low, low levels. Fierce support at Dow 11800 I would say. Also, the fact that Bear stayed near 30 was pretty impressive. Monday of course could be a whole different story.

If you buy em a drink or two, will the sex be free then ?

Without seeing your code or implementation, you are probably on the right track in blaming COM. I had experience with implementing COM using IB's TWS API and it was slow as heck. Bottomline: There is a lot of overhead in the COM calls and callback processing. It's best for you to consider a DLL...

Of course we will pay for these moves dearly down-the-road. All he has done here is transfer risk to a larger audience.....the taxpayers....who will eventually pay for this. It's all "smoke and mirrors".

Yes, and soon the US will be a third world nation. Ironic, isn't it ?

Yeah, but they've got great TV commercials ! At least that's one positive thing about them.

Omigosh - that is great ! LMAO !!!

The Tradebullet API will work with Excel. However, I would be concerned about the fact the API has not been upgraded since August 2007. Also, for IB/TWS, it requires a fairly old TWS release.

It appears to be possible to send orders from Excel using the XTAPI. However, a comment in the forum from an administrator indicates that TT does not recommend nor support such usage....i.e. you are on your own if any problems arise.

Lookie here...short covering rallies in BEAR MARKETS...are: 1) SWIFT 2) NASTY (for the shortS) 3) SHORT-LIVED (for the well capitalized) If you get "caught short", you have two options: 1) GET OUT IMMEDIATELY for a loss 2) HANG ON - you'll eventually be rewarded.

Sorry...but you need to go back to school....basically Econ 101. I came from THE GREATEST school of free market economics...whose professor recently passed-away. (Go figure it out from that....your homework assignment has been given) He taught Futures trading over 35 YEARs ago. He'll tell...

OMIGOSH...that is so precious...and TRUE. Bill and Ralph Cruz are just so obviously waiting for the day they can finally just sit on the sands of the beach counting the number of string-bikinis go by. They were once far ahead of anyone in this area...and then they decided to screw their...

There is a huge bug in Opentick's subscriber agreement online: https://www.opentick.com/index.php?app=users&event=agreements I am unable to get past this screen. I agree to everything, and then hit the "agree" button and it just takes me back to the same screen....resetting all fields to...

Really ? Wow - impressive.....and the fact that Tradestation never improved it's EL performance is "telling". What exactly have they been doing since they dropped TS2000i ? Does anyone know all of the new features in Multicharts 3.0 ?

I've been preaching this mantra ever since I left prop. Prop is about stocks, not futures or options. That is where the money is. (for them).

BINGO ! This would account for the attitude towards the smaller traders and the fact is they have a ton of institutional business to keep them profitable. We're like gnats to them.

Time to rename Cramer's show to "Sad Money". All of his listeners are crying into their cheap Budweiser beers. The shorts are drinking Dom Perignon. Too bad Cramer never sees fit to recommend a short ultrafund or other short-biased ETF. Looks like Cramer's career may end similar to Joe...

LISTEN UP. This is the very same problem I experienced with QCharts years ago: SOME SERVERS WERE WORKING GREAT, others lagged badly. It all has to do with the distribution of the workload and the data. Apparently, ESignal has not figured out how to optimize the load by server-switching...

No. If he does not use my code to check his MarketPosition, he will just increase the size of his long position.

For daily bars, that will basically work because the orders placed will most certainly result in fills. So in this particular case, MarketPosition is not really needed unless you want to place these orders only when already flat. In that case, just qualify the orders: If MarketPosition = 0...
