the problem with IRt is that you can only scan a max of 1000 stocks right? Its vital to me that I can can the entire universe at one time. Why would you keep yourself short? That was also the problem that I encountered with another filtering software. They were charging way too much just to be...

Most professionals around do know of ETG. They dont spend a lot of money on advertising nor do they have a booth at the show. They are small, and like to take new traders in and train them, and try to keep them there for a few years until their contract expires. Like most firms, they have...

thanks winsum, i was just about to post that link. Its just a matter of time, maybe another quarter that most software will have openbook. But to be honest, there are ways floor traders and specialists get around the open book, so if you see big offers and sellers, it can easily be a trader...

Banker, I was just using .007 as an example, and you are right, who would pay that if they were doing 3 million shares a month. Thats one of the reasons why I goto expos in NYC. Its much easier when its in my backyard. I try to talk to about every BD that is present to see their latest...

Open book is roughly $50 for me if that helps. To be honest, Open book isnt going to make you anymore money than what you are making now. Its like driving with a radar detector, is it going to make you drive faster? once you are hit with a laser, its over....
