    Using Spread Betting to invest??

    Thanks, What am I missing - I can't follow all of your numbers? Maybe I misunderstand how things work. I think you meant to type 20x leveraged, not 2x. If you have a 23500 position do you not pay 4.5% on that, = 1010.5 on the year? Are you balancing that against the 4.5% you can earn in the...

    TradingView - it must be simple

    Thanks I don't see which numbers you're referring to - 17%,18% Your table looks credible though For "silly" I'm referring to eg Microsoft 244% over 1, 3 and 6 months. Geog filter is USA + UK, Those tickers come up if you add UK. I don't know what they are, It has a London code for Microsoft...

    TradingView - it must be simple

    Tradingview contines to be a mystery. On one screen it says you have to pay for intraday preiods., then you find they're free, etc etc. What's going on here? At first look, the numbers look like absolute garbage. But the "symbols" aren't familiar I don't know what it's looking at, to get all...

    Intraday (1 minute, 5 minute...) screener?

    I just spent 15 minutes looking at Deriscope. $48 of course is approximately nothing. Some of the Demo videos aren't even watchable unless you're prepared to sit though several minutes of advert about someone's marvellous scheme, first. It looks powerful but I found the explanations...

    Yes. the lack of their (T212) previous bid/offer spread display has caused many people unexpected losses. For anything but the most liquid, the wick on the candle is likely to stretch to your disadvantage as the transaction goes through. Limit orders are vital, or you can get a minus two percent...

    Intraday (1 minute, 5 minute...) screener?

    @cassiopeia I didn't use it for what you're doing. I was overwhelmed by its problems. If you download their program and run it on your pc and look at the data with Firefox, the numbers on the screen dissolve into unreadability. TV were absolutely useless at helping. They didn't know theor...

    Intraday (1 minute, 5 minute...) screener?

    @DuMotier Thanks I'll look again at Yahoo. I though they only had daily intervals. I can do standard Python, never seen R. A search returns a number of useful looking articles. Did you have a fave? Same with Excel - I thought that was only daily. It is just a question of refreshing the sheet...

    Intraday (1 minute, 5 minute...) screener?

    I'm looking for a live data, 1,5,15 etc minute screener. UK based. I found Tradingview worked, but unreliably. Tradingview seems to have changed. If you start from say https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/NASDAQ-AAPL/ you can click on Supercharts. From there, it WAS possible to go to a screener...

    TradingView - it must be simple

    Errrr... ! Baffled - modes??! I'll search on that. Presumably you can switch between modes. I know that if you Google TradingView Screener you get one where you can't select 5 minute, 15 minute etc columns. Pay, they say for sub one day. CTRL-scroll works in your mode, too. It's just for the...

    TradingView screener. How do I 1) switch to the chart for an instrument 2) Increase the screener text size Online help says "click the settings button". Where is it! This is the free version, Chrome. . (Just noticed the screen shot tool included the little panel centre top for the screen...

    Swing Trading

    Where do you trade ETF's? That's instant (and free) on Trading212, but they don't have a huge range. Elsewhere (ii. IE. HL. AJB.) they hang on to your money for a week. 10% a year? That's not very ambitious!

    Swing Trading

    Well done to both of you, good for Forum Spirit. @1nvest, I'm sure many of us would appreciate more info about the strategy which was used. Would it be possible to see that document you kindly sent to Robert. I've read through the thread, and I'm sure I'm missing something. So far for the Long...
