    Lie Groups and underlying trading

    The issue with attempting to apply Lie groups is that the symmetries implied are both continuous AND linear. But, the markets are the farthest thing you can get from linear. Same thing with the notion of quantum logic. This is also why signal analysis (Fourier, wavelets, etc) won't get you far...

    Volume Indicator

    Use the SESST (session statistics indicator) on MarketDelta or Investor RT. It's a fabulous platform for doing this sort of thing with OUT custom programming.

    Interactive Broker frustration! help with options

    Hi Newguy, Sorry, had to run out to dr appoint. You will find a lot that is "hard" to find at IB because there is just so darn much stuff they have built in to TWS. I believe what you want is part of the Interactive Analytics package. If you haven't already found it, here is the page...

    Interactive Broker frustration! help with options

    Go to the IB web site and look for the section with all the archived webinars. There you will find (3 I think) webinars that describe and demonstrate all the various option oriented features. Just look at the titles of the webinars that have word "option" in them. There is a TON of...

    Why do people use Volume, Range and Tic charts?

    I have atttended Prof's class. The statements about what Prof does and teaches contained in this PM are simply not correct. Nor are the statements about what he claims to have done. The PM loosely uses some of the same words Prof uses, and manages to mangle the truth significantly by rearranging...

    Any1 interested in making a real time chat room?

    http://vyew.com/site/ I've tried Vyew and it works pretty good. Haven't looked carefully at current offer, but it was totally free for smaller groups. No live charts thought. Hotcomm will cost a small amount, but you can do live desktop sharing to the whole group.

    IB datafeed and constant volume bars

    This is wonderful news. In the past when I tried this no backfill occurred. I will start experimenting again, using Opentick for historic and IB live. Would be fantatic if this works, as I have no love loss with esignal, nor do I enjoy paying them monthly:)

    IB datafeed and constant volume bars

    It probably does work just fine.... until you get a disconnect. Then you're screwed as IB offers no historical tick data which is what is used to build the volume bar charts in the first place.

    Hate to be the grim reaper but are looking at a possible depression

    We may indeed be in for a hell of a depression...... or we may not. Over a decade ago a rather convincing (and long ) book titled "Blood In the Streets" provided a most convincing argument for depression, back then. Equally, you can find many great arguments that the world is on the verge of...

    Spydertrader's Futures thread

    Hey numb nuts, I asssume you're aspeakin to me. I am not allowed to post in the thread. I annotate channels and gaussians just fine thank you. No one does it perfect, and there are many ways to skin the channel cat. Likewise, if you don't know what resolution I'm annotating, you can't possible...

    Spydertrader's Futures thread

    It's not whether I or someone else with no credentials believes it. The more useful question is: what would an expert in education say about it? Now, I do claim to be a bit of an expert on the subject, but I'm totally biased. So, go and look at what other teachers (particulary subjects that...
