Has anyone here ever used ionDesk Robot for automated trading? if so what do you think about it? Thanks!

Stocks, ETFs, Options. However, based on my phone call, as a Canadian - they offer 50% on stocks and 75% margin on 3X leveraged ETFs. They said over night margin's the same as intraday, however I'm still not 100% on that - the guy didn't sound too sure, so I'll call them again this week...

Hi, Can anyone please refer me to brokerages in Canada which offer MT4, MT5, and Multicharts? I'm interested in automated trading for stocks, ETFs and options, and would like to find a broker with margin requirements at 30% or lower, for stocks, but also for 3X leveraged ETFs & ETNs. In...

Hi, What's Interactive Brokers' intraday, aka same day margin requirement? I know it's 50% overnight, however their website doesn't indicate margin requirements for day trades. I'm interested in rules for Canadian accounts, however would be nice to know what their rules are elsewhere. Thanks!!

Hey everyone, I'm interested in finding out which broker has the lowest margin requirement % in Europe? It would also be nice if it offered NinjaTrader, Meta Charts, or Multicharts for automated trading of stocks and ETFs. Thanks!!

Diversification isn't the only way, you guys are missing the #1 best way to mitigate this problem..

I'm considering switching trading accounts to Interactive Brokers for their automated trading apps. For those that are familiar with IB - is it possible to use their automated trading apps to buy stocks based on specific technical criteria based off of stock charts? Also what's the name of...

Still looking for either: 1. Software that takes control of your browser and executes trades after reading signals from investools' ProphetCharts or 2. Recommendations for custom software developers Thanks!

Hey guys, Can anyone confirm whether they also experience delays of around 10-30 seconds for so called "real time streaming data" from Investools' Prophet Charts? My broker is Questrade and the real time moving limit order feature - seems to be substantially faster than the data feed from...

Anyone?? :)

IB doesn't offer margin for ETFs due to FINRA's regulations on the issue. Because Questrade is located in Canada - FINRA's margin requirement regulations are optionable. Questrade is the only broker that offers 30% margin for 3x ETFs that I'm aware of - it's a nice capability to have when you're...

No it's through Questrade, but my rules are very well defined and straight forward

Hi, Does anyone know of software that could execute trades through an internet browser - while at the same time getting it's trade signals from charting websites such as Investools' ProphetCharts? ProphetCharts is a java app that loads in internet browsers and can be detached from the browser...

I looked into OnDemand and found out that I'd have to open an account with TD's thinkorswim and that to gain access to this program I'd have to maintain a balance of $5,000 USD. The other problem is that TD has very strict margin requirements for certain instruments so that $5k would be...

I tried to enter this week however I was stopped out. I took a relatively minor loss and it could have been considerably worse had I not acted. This feels like a build up - at first I felt the pain of seeing my strategy work repeatedly but fail to take action; now after taking a trade and taking...

You're misunderstanding what I'm looking for. I'm not looking for simulated data - I'm looking to simulate historical data again so I could put myself in the situation and improve my reaction times and strategies.

Hey Guys, Does anyone know of trading software that re-simulates historical data? Thanks!

Thanks for your suggestions, I've been putting some serious thought into this over the past week and am slowly piecing this together. Thankfully trade opportunities come up fairly frequently so I think I'll be able to have another go at it next week [swing trader] My edge/system is solid...

Hey Does anyone have advice on how to get over the fear of simply placing a trade? When a trade opportunity comes up and all my criteria are met, for some reason I'm not pulling the trigger. Under my system, after buying I'd place stops to keep the possible losses limited and known...
