I'm been a long time customer so I get some discounts but I think it's $200+Exchange Fees for non-brokerage clients.

The programming language (Easy Language) is indeed easy to get used to. But it has some strange limitations. However, there are some workarounds. They might have free trial. Give it a shot.
The software is over all easy to use but coming up with a system that works is not. I've been working on it for seven years

Well, I needed this run up after all of the chip chop I got into earlier. Old Chinook would have exited long at 1.3399 and then start shorting full blast over 1.3400
Yes, I can remember the "flip-flopping" sometime back.
It seems there are still days when this syndrome could return, but today was a good day overall - even though I only got a small part of the day right - it was the important part for me.
Otherwise, I think the rise today was a little sick - although not hindered by any great defenders to be seen in the EuroFX at least. One can only lament the situation and the speed of it - but sometime "soon" it will reverse.
63 ticks on 9 trades is not half bad - even for today with the great range we saw.

oef.
I just went over my trades for the day. It's truly mind-boggling. How come I shorted EURUSD almost every time, as well as longed the USDJPY, and still got those 63 ticks .. ?
What WAS I thinking ? Goes to show how being in the middle of it all sends you all kind of signals - but stepping away from it - and wearing those 20-20 hindsight goggles - you see a totally different "reality".
When I look at the 5-min chart today, it does not even remotely resemble the "reality" I was trading. I guess it really was some kind of stairstepping chop all day long.
I guess trading and reading signals is just as useful as the results one can make out of it oneself. My signals and comments are probably little worth to anyone not trading EXACTLY like I do. And there doesn't seem to be that many fast scalpers around here.

Yes, one has to carefully watch out for "madness" symptoms!
