    Archived 1 Minute Charts?

    Looking for a free service where I can view past 1 minute charts for the purposes of backtesting. The best I have right now is Tradingview.com but the 1 minute charts only go back about 2 weeks. Any ideas?

    Anyone Day Trade From a Cruise Ship?

    Guess I'll play it by ear, as far as trading from the ship. If I can get away with making a swing trade here and there I might do it.

    Anyone Day Trade From a Cruise Ship?

    I guess it's all relative. Low risk compared to trading gap ups in the first minute after open; a strategy favored by some people I know. I find reversals pretty predictable, and if I time them right they rarely run away in the opposite direction.

    Anyone Day Trade From a Cruise Ship?

    Found some cautionary tales from people who had, but that was in the early 2000s. Months ago my girlfriend talked me into a 2 week south pacific cruise that's coming in September.

    If You Had To Live on $4000, How Would You Trade It?

    Fun topic huh? :rolleyes: So I'm a former IT guy who became enamored with stock trading back around Christmas. IT had become stagnant and unpleasant to me so I saw trading as my chance to take command of my own destiny and devote time to writing my series of fiction novels. Unfortunately I got...

    Is There a Real-Time (not 15 minute delayed) Standalone Scanner?

    Getting a better sense of the day-trading world as I go. And it seems to me that I really need a live scanner to find opportunities. I've tried a few 15-minute-delayed scanners and they have a slight tendency to tell me about an opportunity after it's already run its course. Mr. Charts...

    Any TSX Day Traders?

    Hello all. I first landed in this forum because of Mr. Charts' epic thread about making money day trading. Very informative. I've been soaking up every bit of knowledge and preparing to try it out. Being Canadian though, I'm naturally more inclined to trade on my home stock exchange, the TSX...
