Yes I did in fact check out today's post on your site. I like to check it out and see if I've looked at somewhat similar trades as you. I am in fact paper trading and then move to 100-200 lot trades with cash. The thought of only risking a handful of dollars per trade to start vs the sometimes...

I think I might have over traded today as well and picked a few no so good stocks. XIV +10 UVXY +4 TSO -11 SNDK -29 SFUN -67 KERX -13 AMT -7 ABT +13 Shameful, Shameful day :(

I think the bracket orders are going to be a good idea. I have always used bracket orders when trading futures (ATM strategy in ninjatrader) but thought I would try trading naked as Richard does. TWS is a little clunkier than Ninja and Im still getting the hang of placing orders. For the most...

I second that! I managed roughly the same trade (74.29 to 74.80). I chickened out when it staled and attempted reading of L2. I also took a few more trades on FAS with both some minor wins and loses. If it wasnt for FAS today I would be in the red pretty hard. Every other symbol I tried to trade...

Hey Mr. Charts, If you wouldnt mind checking you PMs, I sent you a message. I know you've stated you dont answer PMs but I don't have enough posts on T2W at this time -- havent been very active on this forum :( Thanks for all the help you've given the community, Stefan

Hey everyone I thought Id have some luck asking on a multi instrument forum so here it goes. On forexfactory theres a thread and system called Symphonie Trading System and I was wondering if the metatrader indicators could be converted for use in think desktop. It really is an excellent system...

Hey everyone, Im not sure if this is the right place to post but I thought Id ask here. I've scoured google for the Traders Dynamic Index for the Thinkorswim platform but have not been able to find a proper one. Of course it's readily available on the MT4 platform for forex but I was hoping to...

wackypete, Ill see if Im able to even trade with em first. what kind of volume is necessary for discounts? I trade anywhere from 2 to 10 round trips on any given day. TOS definitely has an A+ platform. I current use it for charting. I just cant stand Interactive brokers way of dealing with...

Ive never heard of Fast Brokers. Does anyone on this board have any experience with them?

Isnt thinkorswim 7 bucks round trip?

wackypete, maybe I can I forget whether or not I had asked the rep from Thinkorswim Canada if I could do that. I think since Im in Canada I have to be with the Canadian arm of TDameritrade or what ever it is lol. Some please correct me if Im wrong idetkov, I havent used their charting but Im...

checked out Global Futures, they have some great rates but it seems that thier futures and forex accounts are separate and not "universal" like IBs. Is Interactive brokers the only one to do that? I dont want to have to choose between one market or another since I swing trade forex and day trade...

Thanks for the reply Peter, I have in fact already checked then out....their Canadian counterpart.. unfortunately they only offer a limited assortment of instruments, mainly stocks on the tsx.

Hey everyone, So Im in search of a broker that deals in both Futures (es, 6e) as well as Forex. Im a Canadian whose been demoing forex and then Futures for a few months now and about a month ago decided to open an account with Interactive brokers. Keeping in mind that they are connected to...

Hey everyone, Im not sure if this is the right area to be posting my question so when in doubt, use the general section haha. Anyway, I have recently stumbled on to two blogs, eminimind.com and then eminiaddict.com. I believe the author of eiminimind.com has posted here before. My question is...
