    Trading in England ??

    Hi, Thanks DEF, I'm so glad I'm with IB :-) I was born in the UK, and now carry dual citizenship with the US, so the taxes are something I've got to check out. For some reason I'm not excited about finding out what ;-) Of course when I hit 72K I'll be more than happy to pay Uncle Sam...

    naz 100 futures

    Hi, my 2cent's, I've been going back and forth trying to trade the Nasdaq mini's. I've been using a 1 min and 3 min charts with EMA's. I was hoping to just use the EMA's crossing over, but found the actual point of entry tuff, because of the movement of price until the time had passed...

    Problems with TWS, futures ?

    Hi, did anyone else have problems with IB's TWS today ? My stock one was fine, but my future TWS wouldn't show any prices till around 1pm, just the ask price, nothing else. I just used Q-charts for prices, the TWS worked fine for sending orders, account balence, I just couldn't get it to...

    Can anybody cann tell anything about the executioner.com?

    Hi, The Executioner was my first RT3 broker/software (ahhh, those were the days;-) but I think you'll find all the same stuff at MBtrader with just as good if not better "backroom" service, plus commissions are a lot less. There are also other RT3 broker/sorftware venders that I think are...

    Why Optimization Won't Kill My System and Will It Work In The Future?

    Hi Dave, just to give you an update. The funny thing is either using the 5,30 or the 4 and 40ema, the signal comes out about the same. I've pretty much given up on using 3 different EMA's. The two seem just as good and a lot simplier. Also as far as using two contracts to close the...

    MyTrack ?

    Hi, has anybody used or heard how "MyTrack" software and charts is ? Their prices seem good, but maybe it's a get what you pay for :-( Right now I'm looking for a realtime charting service really just for the mini-futures with just some simple indicators on it (at least a couple of...

    IB for futures

    Hi Dustin, who are you using for charts ? And if Q-charts what server are you using ? Are you daytrading the e-minis ? I'm still having missing data with the Nasdaq mini's using 1min' charts. Guess I'll call them again and see what they can do. Thank's again, Andy

    Why Optimization Won't Kill My System and Will It Work In The Future?

    Hi Dave, thanks, no rush. It's actually given me some time to run them as best I can, live. The 9,18,50 seems to leave some big moves on the table, by getting out on the 18 instead of waiting for the 50 doesn't seem to save too much especailly considering how it missis big moves. The 4 and...

    Why Optimization Won't Kill My System and Will It Work In The Future?

    Hi Dave, thank you so much for your time in answering and also in running the test. I'll go over the system I'd been trying to test "live" I guess, just in case you see something that might add or take away from what you ran. As far as when I would enter a trade, I'd wait for the...

    Why Optimization Won't Kill My System and Will It Work In The Future?

    WOW !!! Talk about a brain overload :-) Though you have me hooked :-) How long does it take to run a test ? For example the crossover MA's. Can an inter day 1 min chart be tested even for the mini's ? Which sortware testing do you think is suitable for the above, didn't you say you were...
