    scan for volume leaders

    TC2000 is reasonably priced, something like 30 a month. And Ameritrade's scanner is nice too, about the same price i think.

    ETF (Sectors) swing trading

    For example IYR which was on your watch list. It has traded 7900 shares today. My usual entry is 2-4K shares and then build from there. I don't want to be a significant percentage of any market. And there is a 25 cent spread there right now. A number of the ETF's trade very low volume that way.

    What Font do you use in IB TWS?

    I use a 14 or 16 Arial Black. It makes the numbers nice and big and bold. And I uncheck a lot of the stuff too so there is not a whole lot on the thing.

    Trade this Chart III

    Let's see, that looks like about 20+ points on your 5k shares over 6-7 weeks. Well of course you have to subtract commissions from that, that would be 1 round trip and I use Ameritrade so $22 total. Hmmm, maybe this "investing thing" ain't so bad. Of course, can you call it investing if you are...

    Trade this Chart III

    Here is the last chart! You all did a nice job. From your posted strategies, I suspect you would have reversed your long position to a short when the low was taken out of that last candle on the previous chart. And look what happened! This is the ADBE weekly chart.

    NYSE limit fills going to the dogs

    Actually NBBO, for the one's using NYSE, the order might never reach the specialist. Trim/nite likes to fill out of Boston a lot Not only that, but for the online people like Ameritrade, if the market moves away briefly, their orde gets dumped onto Island, and NEVER gets in to the specialist's...

    NYSE limit fills going to the dogs

    Yes this same was discussed the other day. If the penny or two is important to your profits then DO NOT go to Ameritrade etc. Trimark/Nite is the culprit. They will not offer your short or bid your buy. Seriously, what are your thoughts about contacting the SEC?
