Here's a link to the specifics of FutureWise/CCI suspension. http://www.nfa.futures.org/news/newsreleases/nr02072002.html
Wow! I only traded with them for a couple of weeks. The software wasn't stable enough and when their server was down for me it was down for...
So my whole post gets deleted? With the idiotic runaround most futures brokers give you I thought details would be helpful. Some of them don't...
I suppose my perspective is a bit skewed since I've been trading the Nasdaq100 e-mini which had a 60 point non-Fed related spike last week (on the...
Sorry, I didn't check the board last night. If you're refering to my "popular discount broker and their handling of stop orders" comment, yes....
You didn't say which e-mini you are trading. The S&P500 usually has ~30-40% higher volume than the Nasdaq100 e-mini and is considered the most...
I usually trade NQ but I'm not trading today. After seeing that NQ spike I'm glad even though I may have been long into the spike. A spike...
I haven't touched ENE since it went < $1 and its volatility went exponential but I'm wondering if anyone was loaded up on it looking for a bounce...
Yep. Thats how I use the various indexes and measurements. I look for divergences between futures action (Nasdaq in my case), SOX, tick-q and...
I'll trade in my stuff for older crap if it gets me to the 7 figure level! If it ain't broke...
I don't get the resolution of current LCD offerings. For charts I use 19" monitors running at 1600x1200. You can buy laptops with 15" LCDs that...
allesim, I don't use esignal so I can't help you with their symbols. The SOX is not Nasdaq specific and includes several NYSE listed companies...
Short answer, the SOX index. From my experience (using Realtick) I'd say that if there is a leading indicator(s) of the Nasdaq 100 futures it...
I've shopped futures brokers recently and your figures look like they're based on the old CME overnight margin requirements (recently lowered)....
As we all know, Globex ain't the pit. Its hard to teach an old trader new tricks. Thats especially true if they've had a degree of success using...
My thoughts exactly. I'm also wondering about tax implications of trading futures as an LLC member (i.e. would it negate the partial long term...
IB will allow you to trade larger ES & NQ positions intraday (daytrading margin) as mentioned in other threads.
Has anyone gotten a reply from www.ird.com ? I e-mailed them but never even heard from the bums. Daytrading e-minis and swing trading stocks, I...
You can paper trade futures for free or $30/month. QQQ moves are usually small and 100 shares won't give you much profit potential. Simulated...
Don, I'm sure most of us enjoy your contributions to the board whether or not we agree with what you say.
