    Are interest charges unavoidable for trading indices using CFDs?

    CFD interest rate is ~3%. That is 30% of your money (given 1:10), and if the underlying grows, so is interest. So you have to be constantly profiting 30% per year just to get breakeven, if CFD is the standard choice of vehicle, especially on the long side and swinging. Sweat the small stuff...

    My experiences with tc2000

    TC2000 was addictive, the UI is really good. Finally got rid of it in favor of TradingView* Pro. They have lot of tickers (stocks, fx, futures, economic). They miss few market symbols and many important market underhoodish tickers including volatilities are only EOD(!), so there's a price. But...

    My experiences with tc2000

    Cheers. I've just noticed another important shakeout :( The alerts (on trendlines or any other conditions) are now disabled in both versions if using BATS. Damn. How can they cut functionality for the customers who once had it.

    My experiences with tc2000

    Not sure. Still can't show gaps. They now focus on collecting extra fees via 1. v16 requiring market fees to get realtime data 2. trading capability with their sucker trading brokerage (it's rebranded IB) No other broker is allowed, so its trading potential is killed. I stick to v12 with...

    SureTrader - Providing sensitive information

    Every US broker has PDT, even with international branches, even for foreign customers - PDT applies for every broker which has main (tax) residence in US. Simple. To the rest of the world, PDT is unknown. "New to trading" + "Want to make SureTrader account" = "excellent" start. Will not hear...

    Karen the Supertrader - TastyTrade Hybrid Experiment

    Excellent. Unlike people who need to follow someone else, I don't follow anybody and easily go against smartest people out there (if they tweet their ideas for example). So May was the best month YTD, took credit oil spikes with CL calls precisely (like 1 fails in 6), scalped ES hundreds times...

    IB TWS taking a lot of memory

    "TWS is not taking enough memory" what's the best settings nowadays? i want it to utilize as much memory as possible, of course. It takes just 1gig. Sometimes too high java mem size values can be contraproductive. So I wonder who knows the good values for current tws.exe.
