I don't know what the CE test is. When I was licensed, there wasn't any such thing. If it is necessary, I'm sure you can take it here, since you can take the Series 7 here and any other licensing exams here as well. You can also take the GED, the SAT, and the GRE here. Higher fees and fewer...

Since the Series 7 is carried by your prop firm, they would handle the renewals for you. If you sign up with a different firm, they handle the license transfer. As long as you're a member of a firm, your license will be active. I believe there's a 2 year grace period during which your license...

There are no NASD issues. You can get a Series 7 in Israel too. Whether you'll find a firm that will let you trade remotely with no upfront cash is another story.

It's 4:30 to 11:00, not 11:30 to 4:00.

Yes, it's on cable.

We're 7 hours ahead of EST (GMT +2). That's means 9:30 a.m. is 4:30 p.m. here, so regular trading hours are 4:30-11:00. You don't have to be an early-riser to be a trader here. Of course you can always trade the DAX if you want more normal hours.... If you can think of another question...

I'm not near either of those places. I'm in the north.

I pay about $50 per month and that includes the charges from Bezeq (the phone company) and Barak (my ISP). That's it. The connection is excellent. I don't know who told you otherwise. The phone lines here are some of the best in the world. I get my data from e-signal and I use PATS for...

I also live in Israel and trade from home. I don't think it's any different from trading in the U.S. I have an account with a U.S. brokerage and a DSL line. No special regulations that I know of. I know several other traders here as well, some trading from their homes, some from a trading...

I hate to admit it, but I was once a retail stockbrocker. We got calls about old stock certificates regularly. If you contact a Merrill Lynch-type brokerage (what used to be called a full-service brokerage, now more like over-priced-for-the same-or-less-service-brokerage), they usually have a...

I guess this is the reality of the wild and wacky world of electronic futures trading. I remember the old days when I traded equities (I wasn't a big client then either) and the broker could just journal a trade to the error account. Does this kind of thing happen often? Is it more likely...

ahaa...

Nice to hear from you Quah! Hope all is going well. I can understand that I'm responsible for my mistakes (I've made plenty of those), but if I call the order desk BEFORE the order is filled and try to cancel, then am I still responsible?

Something weird happened today. I trade with Global using PATS standalone system. I finished an e-mini trade and wanted to cancel the unused stop order I had in place from the trade. When I clicked to PULL the order, the order status changed to CP (cancel pending) and it remained an active...

I'm another Qcharts user :( who doesn't have tick charts, so I'm trying to see if this would work on time-based charts. I'm not trying to fix what isn't broken (SVSS). Just trying to see if I can get it to work with what I've got. Quah has opened up my mind to new possibilities. Before Quah...

Trading ES from home in Israel. Retail.

Looking at today's ES, I combined ctrader's idea of trading the direction of the previous bar with I think it was macal's idea of trading every 15 minutes, EXCEPT I went in the opposite direction of the previous bar. It's working so far today. I don't have the ability to backtest it, nor do...

I think Quah's system deserves a more elegant name than Quah's Fib System. My first two entries in the Name This System Contest are: 1. The Quahlude 2. Sine Quah Non Any other ideas?

I think your system sounds great. I would love to trade in a way that removed all subjectivity from the entry and exit decisions. The short amount of time in the trade is also great because one of the challenges of trading is simply staying in front of the PC for so long. Would you be...

I had the same problem when I upgraded to XP. My broker sent me the standalone version. It works fine. There IS a standalone version. You should request it.
