    Bracket Trader- be careful!

    Wally, the same thing happened to me today. I also have v 2.14c. It happened more than once too, except I had the TWS open also so I saw that no reverse had occured and the stop was still in effect. As a friend of mine says, "I paid some tuition today." At first I thought I had hit the...

    Anyone trading Hong Kong futures?

    FWIW: IRD told me they do not offer service to US based US citizens. Bummer. Esignal has foreign exchange service and IB interactvity.

    Qcharts v. RealTick

    mdmbud, the reference of fre data wasn't to you, there are a number of threads where people are asking about free data. I have been with Qcharts for three years. Early on before the server farm rebuild, the feed was pretty spotty... . Now it is very reliable. And user friendly. I use the...

    Using P/E to determine shorting opportunities

    birdog, Thank you for making my point about tech stocks with no earnings and ridiculous P/E's. Remembering that this thread is about using P/E's to determine SHORTING OPPORTUNITIES, presentation of opinion about buying low P/E's is somewhat off topic. And since investors buy stock, and...

    Using P/E to determine shorting opportunities

    Right Dan. And P/E's are very relative to the industry also. A low P/E is a very relative term. On the other hand, I think a high P/E is easier to determine. :)

    Using P/E to determine shorting opportunities

    Disguised as a strategy topic - I'd like to also pose the question to be discussed in this thread.... why do we pay price multiples? As I mentioned in another thread, it has always seemed ridiculous to pay multiples of earnings. Historically this multiple is around 12. I ask you - does anyone...

    Say what you want about the Wave...

    Jolly Jack, I agree with your conclusion that Price deflation in the wake of consistent earnings would probably depict a poor economy. Yet price multiples have always been an enigma to me. I relate it to this question: does anyone pay you 12 times the earnings you generate? It seems...

    I'm looking for a new Flat monitor

    LOL :D :D Now that is funny! My wife says she would. It surpised me. I mean after all, who would want to leave this happening hotbed of excitement? Leave some for the rest of tomorrow nitro. Lord knows with your setup, if you set that thing on autotrade IB and TS will have to dedicate...

    Say what you want about the Wave...

    You make me think nitro, as always. If the Dow gets to 1000, what jobs will be out there for us to get? On the other hand, does a collapse in P/E, from the P side only, depict a poor economy.... or a more prudent one? Hmmm....

    I'm looking for a new Flat monitor

    I know what you mean. Our last home was built in 1913 and had hardwood floors. They are stronger than ceramic tile. I know you have the nice high ceilings there too. Hardwood floors, high ceilings, a trading station that's , in mktwiz's term, the bomb... and a Subway down the street. You...

    Yes but don't "bear" feet scratch the wood? You know it's one thing to love your football team, but for cryin' out loud!!! :D

    I'm looking for a new Flat monitor

    You are the man nitro. That looks nice. Hardwood floors... fresh air... I see your pairs thing going on there. Where's the pic of the family? Hey what's going on over there? Is that some screen real estate not in use on that Monitor 4? What...you takin' a vacation or something? Maybe I...

    Bear Market.....

    Corso there has been a lot of volatility in the market that can make even a 10 minute method look silly. Also, at times, the total lack of volatility following some gaps creates days where the entire market is nothing but churn and burn. Even the scalpers have had difficulties of late. No follow...

    Say what you want about the Wave...

    Yeah, what are you thinking? Everyone here knows that trading with the trend is wrong. Especially the long term one. What a farce. There's no money to be made trading with the long term trend. Certainly no big money. The big money is made scalping ES 1 lots. Yeah, that's the ticket -...

    Rapid Fire Swing Trading and other Ebooks

    In the words of Larry the Cucumber...... oh maaaaaaaannnnn! I checked out the post re: cftc.gov and Stephen Pierce. What a shame. There is no reason to lie in this business. It is not that hard to make money. And one thing is for sure, this is an easy game to coach. Tough to play, but very...

    Rapid Fire Swing Trading and other Ebooks

    Daal, is that the one about NR days, and Inside days, and Volatility Ratios? I purchased that, and I get the free email alerts. Most of the alerts come on commodities like the grains, meats, and precious metals. I trade stocks. Although they do have stock alerts too, I don't see them much...

    Do Indicators lag?

    Nope... goldenarm is accurate. There are leading indicators and lagging ones. Each of his/her posts is entirely accurate. Probably the best known one is the Stochastics oscillator. While it is derived from "historical" data, it is considered by the experts in mathematics to be a leading...
