I have a question about the way IB posts orders on otcbb stocks. I am trading KORE which traded 1700 shares today, the problem seems to be in the past when I enter an order with their smart routing it does not show up in any book, but rather waits for someone to enter an order that it can hit...

my mistake, it looks like the first half of today no trades were made, so I was getting the closing price from yesterday, that's what made me think it was not trading.

I am short Kore Nutrition Inc. (OTC: KORE.OB) and it looks like it's not trading any more, at least I can't get a current quote on the stock. anyone have an idea where I can find out what is going on with this stock and why it's not trading?

the daytraders I have seen who were making the most money, never looked at any charts, they only watched level 2. some of them did have an idea what the closing price from the previous day was and some other prices in their heads but no charts.

I found a stock that had a market cap of $190 million and according to their SEC filings the company has around a total of $500 in assets and no income. and I am pretty sure this is the one where the owners issued themselves an extra billion shares of stock. yes it's a billion not a million. so...

I knew a guy who was making around 10k per day, he let me go through his account statements and I added up a couple of weeks of his trades and they worked out to be successful around 54% of the time.

I have personal issues with this system, since I lost over $250,000 of real money with it. 200 tiny winners, one massive account crushing loser. Hope your luck is a lot better than mine. and buy the way, your odds of losing with this system are the same as without it.

I have started using http://www.howthemarketworks.com/ for testing out new trading ideas I don't want to spend money on. I was really surprised to see that this site has real time data, and for liquid stocks it's pretty close to my real account for fills.

nope, you got it, that's exactly how it works. Some people really believe there are nice people out there calling around looking to help them to make a ton of really easy money, with little or no risk.

I don't know much about China other than I saw a video where they had a building with an entire floor of day traders there, there must have been a couple hundred people trading, so there are some people with good trading set ups over there.

I have tried this strategy with the ES and here is what I came up with. when the market is moving in your direction, you don't get filled because your using a limit order. So most of your good moves you will make nothing. When the market does fill you, that means it's actually moving against...

I am a daytrader, but recently I have been looking into shorting penny stocks and holding them for a day or two. What I wanted to know is what happens if I am holding a stock that get's halted by the SEC? if the stock reopens at a later date then I can close out my position, that I understand...

you could try something like freeforums.org

yeah, I was thinking about trying that, but unless this is something specific to my computer, it seems with all the firefox users out there, others should be having this problem too.

TDAmeritrades command center and firefox and that's it. but I think it has happened without command center running (not exactly sure?) OS is windows vista I have a quad processor Q9400 RAM is 8 gigs DDR3 disk free space 250 gigs so this computer should not be grinding to a halt with what it...
