    They are winding down; APS rights are being transferred to another outfit, but I do not know to whom. Anybody knows anything about which company is holding the rights for APS? Eduardo.:)

    help in Meta Stock Formula Plz

    I would suggest that you download and study the Primer on the link above, and take it from there. Also I suggest that you contact programmers such as Jose Silva on the link above, their experience and ability are well beyond my own. Eduardo.:)

    Pairs Trading with Metastock?

    Keep trying, don't give up. Programming isn't easy; there is also a forum for MS users, and this one is useful too: http://tradersconsortium.com/community/index.php I strongly suggest that you visit them with your query, there is a habit of helping others MS users in those forums. Eduardo.:)

    Metastock 11

    By testing my own strategies! At least, I know and understand them; but something which already comes prepacked is not my cup of tea. I prefer my own ideas, at least I can trust them. Something psychological I guess. Eduardo.:)

    CMC and guarateed stops

    Here is a tip - read the threads on CMC in this forum and make form your own opinion, as it is the best for you! Personally I wouldn't touch CMC with a bargepole, but that's me. Eduardo.:)

    IG market or IG index?

    This is not about blaming, but about being realistic; CFDs and Spreadbetting firms do make their own prices. And yes, it is true, if you win too often, they'll close your account. This, I suspect, is because the "punter" (or trader if you prefer) has found a way to get round the house...

    IG market or IG index?

    No, it's worst than the X-Files! These guys are nothing more than glorified bookmakers; why do you think there are so many of them mushrooming about? They set their own prices and in some cases (CMC, for example) will create spikes which are seen nowhere in the market just to hit your stop loss...

    IG market or IG index?

    It just pisses me off that I am charged for the trade; if I am so good that they mirror the trade, they should at least reduce the spreads charged, don't you think? Also, they will process first their trades, then yours - making you less money than they themselves get out of your trade! In any...

    Metastock 11

    I've got the EOD and no complaints so far. I had to upgrade from v.9 because they don't support the monthly upgrade file on codes anymore for that version. You get a pile of (useless in my view - I'll be damned if I commit my money to a black box system!) indicators, Rahul Mohindar et al., a new...

    IG market or IG index?

    This is what it mean: 1) They'll get you given half a chance, so be careful where you put your stop losses. 2)If you win consistently, they will copy your trades so as to make more money from you. These are waters full of sharks, where nobody will think much about parting you from your money...

    IG market or IG index?

    Now you have raised a very important point here - check what happens with the money in your account; I know that spreadbetting firms segregate the money, ie., is kept separately, but I am not sure about CFDs. If you are given a price and the market for the underlying is close, then clearly the...

    IG market or IG index?

    You really are asking questions that only yourself can answer; why don't you sit back, relax, and do just that? CFDs and spreadbetting are pretty much the same in that you take the price the broker gives you; futures and shares, on the other hand, reflect the true market price. With this info...
