    forex scalping

    That's perfect. I hope you don't mind if I use this myself, I like it a lot. There is only one small problem. When we get to may, it has 31 days. Can you make it so it can account for the 31 days in May and/or 29 in Feb. Awesome stuff ES

    forex scalping

    Color now looks strange, but you just gave me an amazing idea on how to create a color template type thing for each month. It won't add any quality to my trading, but at least December can look like an icey blue and june an orange type color. Woohoo. I need to pick up a book on excel. The...

    forex scalping

    Awesome ES, works perfectly. Now if only I could figure out how to program in Visual Basic to make those macros then I could automate with the Laser platform ;)

    forex scalping

    I just got one question ES. How do you do the automatic color formating? I've been interested in that awhile. BTW, I attached a basic Excel SS I have been working on to keep track of my trades for the Laser platform. I will add in all the formulas when I can. But still new with...

    forex scalping

    Hey ES, if I you don't mind me asking, what broker do you use and what is the spread on the EUR/USD and the USD/JPY, and how many trades do you average per day? Also, how are the options trades going?

    Strange question for traders at home

    lol.... sure it isn't different from many others, except while up at 2:30 in the morning, i'm watching eSignal, and pretty much the rest of the day. The markets are my life, so that is the life I choose. :-P Eat, Sleep, Trade...... it is what I love to do now.

    Strange question for traders at home

    I usually get about 6 - 7 hours of sleep....I'm up at 8:30 est. Go grab a pop-tart or a bowl of frosted flakes. Watch CNBC until open. Then at 9:30 CNBC goes off and I am trading.

    eSignal 8.0, 8.1 & QCharts

    I actually tried the demo of Neoticker with the eSignal data, it worked great. I like Neoticker better than eSignal. It is a shame how a small group of programers can put a big one like eSignal to shame and just make me want to laugh at them really. Owell, in the future eSignal will get...

    Fidelity Active Trader Pro

    False statement.... Genesis Securities is the Micheal Jordan of brokers right now. I'm still waiting for another broker to even come close. *Note the above was not meant to be fact, just an opinion* BTW, you can't beat Laser, IB's platfomr is horrible and buggy. C'mon they still use...

    eSignal 8.0, 8.1 & QCharts

    [/B] It's nearing middle of April, where is eSignal 8 at? Or are we going to have an excuse for this one, or better yet... a delay. Always love to bash on eSignal more and explain why eSignal deserves no new users. So what's the story this time. We getting a delay on eSignal 8, or are...

    cpu usage at 100% ???

    "TWS can be run from Windows, Mac OS (9 and X), Linux, and Solaris." But the fact it can run on Linux entices me. Anyone here have Linux that can demo the IB TWS on their system and compare it to Windows?

    cpu usage at 100% ???

    IB uses Java.... It made my machine run horribly slow as well. Close all other tasks that are not needed. Run MSConfig on the run menu and go to the startup tab and disable all tasks not required to be running from starting up, I had a bunch of crap that didn't need to be run, like...

    A Question for Scalpers

    Hey Ripley, how's the trading going, haven't talked to you for awhile. And yeah, 60% of your losses from commissions, that is where commissions will not allow you to be successful no matter how good at scalping you are.

    A Question for Scalpers

    I don't even know how to use order-flow to my advantage. I use support and resistance to determine a bias as to where the prices might go. Maybe I'm not in this category of scalping then. In that case, I'm shutting up :D I missed a lot of good moves on AAPL chatting it up :p
