I have been using Price Action Lab since it was still APS. If anyone wants to chat and share some ideas, let me know (PM). @gianno: PAL lists their data sources on their website: Data for Price Action Lab

You cannot go wrong with C/C++. Once you master it, switching between languages is easy. Every trading platform has its own API or scripting language. Just get the basics down. If you are looking for a good intro to programming, try PHP. Free and much of the syntax can move you to C/C++.

Will it be similiar to RadarScreen?

Is opentick accepting new customers? I just signed up but it just said we will contact you soon?

Looks like they just updated their data DVD for July 08. Need to pickup the market disc. Anyone know where I can get historical options data?

I have found experienced programmers will charge between $60 to $150 depending on the complexity of the project. You can always try going offshore to find a contractor for cheap, but as always, the pros and cons must be considered. If you do a search on ET, you will find links to...

What kind of answer is that? Again, my question is: Why would a programmer with a winning system sell it to you when they could just pimp it themselves and not share any of the revenue? In fact, it doesn't make a difference if a system works or not. Many public vendors sell systems that do...

What is in it for the programmer/trader? Why would anyone with a long-term winning system sell it to you for you to market and profit from?

saganna, I sent you a PM. I have the R3-R4 method. Typical tradingmarket course. PM me what courses/systems you have in return for trade.

virgin, AustinP will not post his trades because his public system just does not work. AustinP maybe a successful trader, but the tools he sells are not. If he does trade, he is using techniques not revealed in his public system. Like most vendors, his system looks better on paper than...

Amazon finally has Vista available for pre-order (amazon sent out a mass email this morning). Here are the final prices: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_sw/002-2683868-3840035?url=search-alias%3Dsoftware&field-keywords=vista Prices are very similiar to XP. Those buying new boxes will not...

Has anyone noticed that Michael "Waxie" Parness (trendfund.com) looks just like Rep. Henry Waxman (D-Calif) Michael "Waxie" Parness Rep. Henry Waxman (D-Calif)

All true. Funny that is he writes this on his home page, "Our Motto is Friendship, Camaraderie and Support"

ER2 had some great swings today. I always find the channel days easier to trade than the trend days. Something to think about: Was your negative return today due to it being a Thursday or because today was a channel day vs trend day? If your bot is looking to catch a trend and you don't...

Don't forget the I-Master bait-n-switch. If your curve-fitted system fails to work after a few months, just optimize it further and call it I-Master Plus. And don't forget to charge another fee for it too. http://www.tradingblox.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=611

Take 10k, learn how to trade. Don't plan on mega-bucks. Just try to learn how to trade. You will most likely lose all 10k but you will hopefully learn something. After you have a plan, trade anther 10k. See how you do. If you still have no plan, you only lost 20k (10k + 10k) and take your...

frostengine, Great posts... Could you answer this: When your bot finds a signal, do you enter at market or via a limit order? I know from manual trading, the ER2 has some fill issues. You previously said you are at 1 contract, so I guess this isn't a problem.

TS2000i is fine. Its globalserver that is crap.
