    Best Charting Software?

    Medved Trader with IB, day/swing trading equities, futures, been using MT for 7'ish years (IB 9+). MT is very intuitive to set up, very stable, has all the indicators one might want, in addition to chart trading, DOM (Matrix on Tradestation). Support is second to none. Highly recommended!

    Anders Tegnell and the Swedish Covid experiment

    Interesting article. Sweden’s death rate: “That has given Sweden the fifth-highest death rate per capita in Europe, five times higher than neighbouring Denmark and about 10 times more than Norway and Finland.” Swedish GDP 1st half of 2020: Appx -7%. About the same as the other 3 Scandinavian...

    Datafeeds for learning and experimenting

    Medvedtrader.com, has a free option (2 weeks I believe), $25/month after that. Need a feed with it, use Webull (Datafeeda & Brokers), no credit card is necessary with Webull, just an email/password. As you can see on that page, Yahoo can also be used. Hope this helps.

    1. Keep a day job until consistently profitable. 2. Trade around your job...930am to 11am, or 2-4pm, eventually including pre/post market. 3. Trade what makes sense...to YOU...breakouts (long/short), pullbacks etc. etc. 4. Don’t worry about HFT’s, algo’s etc., you’re worrying about the wrong...

    TradeStation Trading Hours?

    No, I'm using IB. As far as I know, TradeStation is the only broker that starts that late, which in itself is strange...but that's another discussion altogether.

    I use Fidelity Active Trader Pro Platform and I feel Like I am living in the Stone Age!

    They haven’t upgraded ATP since I first started using it, 20+ years ago. These days I use IB for day trading. I wanted a better, and an easier platform for entering trades, easily changing from 5-min to 60-minutes chart, or daily/weekly, with my Fidelity accounts. So enter Medved Trader...

    I use medvedtrader.com as my front end with IB, trade YM & stocks. I'm using Quotestream Connect for equities only, appx $290/year, no issues, I use IB's feed for futures. Not sure what Quotestream would be charging for futures. Link on the site for getting to Quotestream. Hope this helps.

    IB's charts suck -- any recs for better intraday charting sites or software?

    I use IB’s API for medvedtrader. If Excel works for your charting, maybe that’s all you need. Good luck.

    IB's charts suck -- any recs for better intraday charting sites or software?

    I use medvedtrader.com with IB. Superb charting package, very reasonable priced. I believe they even provide a free version, for checking it out, if you don’t wanna pay the $20’ish to test it out for a month. I trade futures and stocks.

    which brokerage i choose for stock and forex trading?

    I’ve used IB for almost 8 years. Rock solid. Their charting, for me, was cumbersome, using Medvedtrader.com. Lots of others also, look at 3rd party on IB’s site. Should all be listed there, I believe. (ToS/Ameritrade is being bought out by Schwab, e*Trade by Morgan Stanley, so who knows what...

    Browser/IOs based International Stock Charting platform for Interactive Brokers?

    I’m using medvedtrader.com with IB, for several years. Rock solid, superb support. Chart trading, DOM etc. Think you can get to try it for free for a week or two with certain limitations, or pay for a month for something like $20 bucks...a full year is under $200 bucks.
