Wise words. Lot of it makes sense. Thanks

I think it has the same rate of failure as in all entrepeneurial fields. After three years most of them are gone. I don't say it's easy to succeed, but if I'd listened to all people telling me how hard everything would be then I'd probably be working on my 15th year as a grocery store...

Thanks, good idea. I got a twitter account, same name as here, but haven't been very active user. I'll check it out.

Thanks for good inputs! I have been trying to see parallells to hunting, but of course fishing is more realistic. I seldom hear about hunters that lose their rifle. But fishing gear I lose frequently :-)

I shall not say for sure that I can stick that long without profits, but I lost my job - so the timing for taking the steps into trading is good. I'm not sure I'd done the same if I had to quit a job that paid me $100k a year. I sort of got help with making that desicion :-)

Thanks for the advice. Anyone who got some thoughts about those trading groups that are online, are there any good ones?

Thanks both of you. And yes, even if actually have been aware of the time perspective and the learning curve, I am glad to be reminded on it. It's easy to forget in the rush for success. Wanting to make a living of trading stocks is not the first thing to bring up at the family dinner...

Hi guys I've decided that I really want to work with trading stocks full time. I've been thinking about this for 6-7 years, and now I have taken the full step. Opened an account at a prop-firm which I was recommended by a colleague. I'm trading in a Sterling Trader platform. Case is that I...

Thanks for the update Bob111. I now have a tool ready to merge the intraday-data into EOD, and will make a comparisement against EOD data from yahoo and others to see how it looks. Merry Christmas :-)

Thanks for all links. It seems that this is the best solution considering price: http://pitrading.com/intraday_ascii_data_stocks_edition.htm Kind regards Espen

Thanks, I already have an account at EODDATA, but I was hoping to find a better solution than paying $450 for 30 months intraday, for those three excanges.

Hi I've been searching for intraday data for NYSE, AMEX, and NASDAQ. But it seems like all I can find is pretty expensive. I'm trading on my own, and doesn't have access to a large pool of resources for developments. Does anyone have some ideas to how I can get free intraday data...

Thanks nazzdack Do you daytrade?

Hello I would like to hear from those of you that trades active every day. Do you prefer technical analysis, like bollinger bands, moving averages, RSI etc? Or do you go for a quantitative and statistical approach? I'm no expert, but I have been using some technical analysis on...

Hi I ended up with a VBA that pulled data from Nasdaq: Sub Macro1() Dim wb As Workbook Dim ws1 As Worksheet Dim ws2 As Worksheet Dim ticker As String Dim i As Long Dim lr As Long Set wb = ActiveWorkbook Set ws1 = wb.Sheets("Tickerlist")...

Hi I try to eliminate dates where a stock has its earnings relased. Does anyone know if there exist a "complete" list with dates and tickers that could be downloaded and/or work with Excel VBA? Kind regards Espen

My trading software is called IQBroker :-)

If you find some I would sure like to hear from you. I'll start on this project some time this week. Kind regards Espen

Hehe, you're right. I'm just not that experienced yet, so I don't know how to do it. But I got some clues to work on now, and I think I should be able to get somewhere from here. I cannot use R because this code will be integrated into a tradingsoftware that's built on C# structure. :-)

Hello I'm searching all over to find a open-source code that can do the calculation of cointegration between stocks.... Language: C# Does anyone have a code like this, or a link to where I can find it? FYI: I cannot use this one, as it is written in Silverlight...
