Madoff is under house arrest, but they haven't pulled his internet connection. Figure it this way: What has he got to lose?

Okay...you figure....what are the odds that somebody employed by TD Ameritrade is going to have trading skills sufficient to coach someone to profitability. If you figure those odds at less than zero then you have the correct answer. Other than "work at home" and "how to get rich in real...

You question here is regarding InvestorRT. The answer is yes, so long as you save the software when you quit and restart. Obviously if you don't save the data, it can't property calculate. But you can also set up automatic saves periodically in case you have a system failure. Think of...

I was short MVV for three days at Interactive Brokers, and had them called back. Strange.

You don't need to take an hour. Take 3 minutes. Go to: http://waysandmeans.house.gov Click on "Contact", then write as a small investor/trader and let them know how it will impact you.

I suggest that everyone go to the following address for the "Committee on Ways and Means", and email comments to the Chairman, Charles B Rangel. http://waysandmeans.house.gov Click on "CONTACT" in the upper right. TAKE A MINUTE, and send your comments in your own words. It can make a...

Look into InvestorRT at www.linnsoft.com. You can interface IRT with InteractiveBrokers via Autotrader. To be very brief, in IRT you can develop your strategy and place it into a quote page, which will track entries and assign exits, which will then pass the orders along based on your...

Thanks for the response, garak.

Gosh, seems like I've heard those words before.

I trade a couple ES systems that I feel may do well with DAX and/or EuroStoxx. But a couple questions for those of you into Eurex. 1. What are the trading hours in the U.S. Eastern? 2. Are there any problems with spreads, assuming I am not scalping large contracts? 3. I had heard...

A fool and his money are soon parted. Interesting - and sad - that the OP has posted a question, then ignored all the best advice that those with a head on their shoulders bothered to take the time to post. Enough said.

Of all the lame ideas I have seen here on ET - and believe me I have seen a lot - this is near the top of the list. If you're going to place a bet against yourself - and pay a commission and spread to do it - you really need your head examined. Because this is nothing more than a...

Ah, ignorance is bliss.

Or, just turn the chart upside down depending on the season. and you'll always look like a winner. Like they say, "Even a broken clock is right twice a day."

Including, I assume, YOURSELF.

There are ALWAYS voices. It comes with the territory.

You will find that commissions and slippage are definitely a factor with that number of trades. So don't buy the Porshe until you are realistic about that. You don't mention the type of system, but you can assume that yes, your system will probably not perform in a normal VIX environment...

Yikes! Can you imagine a car manufactured by Fiat and Chrysler? Will it make it out of the dealer's lot and around the corner before it rusts?

It was the first I've seen. And their bite is not really all that bad. Because I live in an area built next to a desert preserve, many of these little critters could have been built right into the homes. They've been here a few hundred million years longer than we have. I've enjoyed...
