    Stops and Limits

    I've watched my positions with D4F go way below my stops occasionally and whipsaw above and below several times before being taken out of the position. However, I have generally found that the stop price (or close to it) was honoured even if the current price was quite far on the negative side...

    A QUIZ for all members

    :D OK, Now I'll say 3, although I could argue that a negative approach could still be lucky occasionally and might win a few initially.

    Pairs Trading

    This is an excellent thread. Thank you for setting it up. Does anyone know a workaround to draw a VWAP line in either TS or e-Signal? TS says their VWAP is available only in a Quote Screen and e-Signal doesn't seem to have anything close. Thanks, Bob

    Brilliant choices, Mr Charts. Can you share with us how you made the stock/pair choices and how you chose the entry and exit points? Thanks for your posts.

    Trading the US the Naz/Mr. Charts Way

    Thanks Mr Charts, I was looking at RIMM, but missed the opportunity. Now I have some material to help me figure out what I should have been looking at. I understand why RIMM was interesting, but what lead you to look at SNDK?

    Tradestation?

    I've had an account with TS for a month now and am very happy with it. The data feeds are always there (something that I haven't experienced with Updata) and their help desk is quite good. I spent an hour with them on the phone once. At 3p a minute, my cost was £1.80, so I got good value...

    TradeStation EasyLanguage

    I'm looking for an alert that a pivot point has been reached early in the day. I've been directed to some code in the TradeStation Forum that can be modified.

    TradeStation EasyLanguage

    I'm new to TradeStation (1 week), but would like to write a small strategy to identify entry points. I can write the pseudo code, but don't know how to translate it into EasyLanguage. I suspect it would be really simple for someone proficient in the language. If you will help me, please drop...

    Trading the US the Naz/Mr. Charts Way

    I'm new to the game and this board, but I am finding the posts to be invaluable in helping me come up to speed. The only problem is the number of negative people who fill the threads with nonsence criticism which make it harder to find the good information put out by the experienced and...

    Getting rid of spam

    I used the free version of Mailwasher for a few months and was so impressed, I upgraded to the Pro version. I have it set up to automatically delete and bounce any address or domain in my blacklist. I have disabled the spam filters. It checks 5 accounts for me every 2 minutes, is easy to use...

    Birmingham and South

    Are there others in the Birmingham South area (I live in Redditch) who are actively trading and would like to get together (physically or virtually) to talk about strategies and trading plans? I started trading a few months ago, took a few good courses, but would like to share ideas with others...
