    Pivot Point Analysis

    Also try using the midpoints between the daily pivot and the S1 /R1, they are quite good for choppy or gapping markets

    NYSE bigcap trading

    I trade with Bright, mainly large caps and read the tape. I agree it has not been working very well latelly. However, you should try a role reversal with the speacialist, if you only trade a couple of stocks, after a while you kinda figure out the speacilist, and start thinking the same way...

    Any traders in Brazil?

    Daal, are you a native or a gringo? Sometimes I kinda try to swing trade, but I guess I am to cheap for that, so I just daytrade. Como dizem sou uma puta barata.

    Trading the NYSE intraday

    My impression is that in low volume stocks you can most of the time lean on the bid or the ask and hit the other side However on large volume stocks, old maxim "trade goes to size" holds true. I mean the specialist is not going to show 10k bid on GE if he does not expect to get filled IMHO

    Trading the NYSE intraday

    TXN,GS, IBM, most of the brokerage stocks, they all have pretty nasty specilists. As is orders held, a lot of shake and bakes (spread'em whack'em) and what a trader friend calls max pain trading, that is if you get in the wrong side at the wrong time, they will not let you out easy, first they...

    User Names On Elitetrader (a fun thread)

    The price movement of stock prices over time can be considered as being a RandomWalk... Or as my physics professor would describe it, like a drunk man walking . Also the book by Malkiel, a Random Walk Down Wall Street, which suggests that a blindfolded monkey would have as much success in...

    New Nasdaq Fees (Echo vs. Bright)

    It's like $20 a month or so, I think it is cheap, if you take into account that at least once a day, I am able to get in or out of a listed position, at a better price than using NYSE AS far as I know and based on what happens to the orders I send, the ISLD orders go straight to ISLD, and I...
