    ODL Markets

    I'm looking at ODL Securities as an option for SIPP trading ... but they seems to have different platforms for everything! How "close" are ODL Securities/Markets??

    ODL Markets

    I'm surprised to hear that! I have yet to find a web based interface which allows custom indicators. so have you considered using the complete Metatrader platform as an option :cheesy: The votes for MT4 are stacking up !

    Idiot's Guide to Level II

    A thread for silly questions from new folks who really haven't got a hang on the "whole trading thing" yet. (or the "hole trading thing" if i'm referring to my account). We'll reserve this thread for the most mundane questions, likely to be of no use to man-nor-beast other than the asker, but...

    Bid/Ask Analysis

    Exactly, Frugi. And to quality further, i don't scalp or trade from tick data directly, but i think i'd need a tick source to get the info i need. Thanks for the link.

    Bid/Ask Analysis

    Here's the possibly off topic and probably silly question of the day. But it makes sence to me: Is it possible to compare the volume of trades at bid vs. the volume as ask to get an indication of buying/selling pressure? You don't really get this from price of volume. And if it is possible...

    Best Thread Capital Spreads

    simon, just seen the thread and perhaps there is a lesson to be learned here ... have you noticed that the barrage of hostile comments ended as soon as you stepped up and took the heat on the forum? i reckon next time something happens (and there will be other times) you should spend a few...

    Cs ! The support at capital spreads is excellent! I've been learning the ropes with them for a while now, and despite the fact that i am almost always making the minimum trades allowed, and therefore not really a "valuable" customer, their customer support has been absolutely amazing. Even...

    I'm looking at forex, cable spread is 5(daily) and the stop distance is 15 from current market. So if i buy @ 1.8000, my closest stop is 1.7980. Thats a minimum loss of 20 points. I know cable is pretty volatile but (particularily with ifDone) a closer stop would be appreciated. I...

    August '04 Forex Trading

    Morning All I've been getting hammered on cable recently. Had one really nice day and nothing since then. Today i'm looking for a low of 1.82 to go long with a target of 1.84. But then i've been wrong a lot recently so i wouldn't count on anything i say coming true. I'm waiting for a nice...
