Don, this thread was not intended to promote or hype yourself or Bright Trading. The intent was to discuss alternate trading strategies. Please try and remain on topic.

I am not attempting to harass or bash anyone. I'm just merely pointing out a trading strategy that may have some profit potential.

This strategy really seems counter-intuitive. I realize the people trading this strategy are convinced that they're gaining and "edge" by being on the same side of the Specialist. However, most of the time there are underlying reasons why a stock is out of whack. Yes, it is because there is a...

Are there any free or inexpensive simulated futures trading platforms?

Can the Jasper program be used for simulated trading? How would I go about doing this? Do I have to have an existing account in order to get the futures feed? I currently only trade nyse stocks, but I'm interested in learning to trade futures. I would like to practice with simulated...

if you're a novice, my advice would be to run away... fast. unless, you have significant $$$ reserves to get you through tough times that may last up to a few years. right now, we're all fighting for crumbs, but it'll get better... just going to take a while.
