    Keeping It Simple

    Hey Banker, I know that Jasper, and BracketTrader do it. Also, the TWS has just recently included this type of order so you are right. I don't have the documentation to do it on TWS. You might PM def for help. He will be way more reliable than someone you get on the phone. :)

    Adding to a losing position..right or wrong?

    That makes four axioms for the record: 1 - You will lose 2 - You will leave money on the table every trade 3 - Cut your losses quickly 4 - Do not average down As far as number 4 goes, if you are averaging down, this is widely regarded as a bad idea. However, if your trade...

    If I recall accurately, Larry Swing uses the Pristine Setup, ie., the 3-5 bar pullback method discussed in the book The Master Swing Trader by Oliver Velez. It is very straightforward. I don't know anything about the options part. :)

    Time Honored Predictor

    Oh that is too good. This is a strategy that will rack up some nice wins if you spot it and play the right breaks. One caveat: if you get in too soon you will lose, I guarantee it. There are other drawbacks too, but mostly you can leave yourself in a good position for another go. Not...

    Time Honored Predictor

    Always leary of locations that might somehow whack my computer, I tend to just mouse over the link and check its location first. But you are right, this is a time-honored predictor.... irrefutably one of the best ongoing prognosticators.... unchallenged in simplicity. I wish you hadn't...

    Keeping It Simple

    The Caddy trade is an excellent way to drive the market. I see it as similar to driving a SmartCar. Get in, go, it makes the turns for you. Your decision is when you want to go. Otherwise, sit back, enjoy the ride. Could you get there in a million other ways? Sure. But who cares, you got there...

    Jasper update ? (for Aphie)

    I have used all three re: Jasper, Tws, Cyber(trader)? Of course scalping with Cyber will kill you commish-wise, even trading several times thru the day is expensive with Cyber unless you are taking bigger profits. And I do not think Cyber supports OCA orders which platforms like TWS, Jasper...

    How do they know??

    They probably don't. It is your superior mind bert, that is probably putting the thought in their heads. All they see is this big number and they turn it. Those guys are probably down there scratching their heads saying, "Wow, that was weird!" :)

    What good do daytraders do to society?

    It hasn't been so long ago that we as individuals were scratching out just enough to provide for our own families. Not everyone owned a bazillion acres on which to farm. Or an auto plant to build cars. They were sweatin' it out. Many still do. Probably most given a world view. Even if not...

    Profits, religion and politics

    stu, I'm not sure where we disagree about truth. What I know to be true is my truth. I said that clearly in one of my earlier posts, and you are saying the same now. Many people, ie., Christians, share a belief in the same truth that I believe. For me, Jesus is the Truth. I have to laugh...

    Profits, religion and politics

    I don't claim to speak for all Christianity. I speak for myself. I have nothing to defend. I know what is true for me, and it is very, very similar to the same truth others know for themselves. There is nothing to defend. There is nothing to prove. For you to say that I cannot, or one...

    Profits, religion and politics

    So whose truth is the truth daniel? That will never be decided here because the very Truth I and a whole lot of people know to to be true, is not what you know to be true. I agree that there is only one truth. The question is... is it the truth you espouse, or the truth I espouse? I know...
