That's basically the same question I was asking to open this thread so I'm going to ask what specific question about the responses do you have? I...
Technically speaking yes but for me I prefer tracking one intermediate trade mechanically and placing hedges on pull backs. Also, over the...
Wow! That was quick. Thanks! Dang! Why didn't I think about that? Hmmm. I'll have to look into what variances come into play with using...
Tried to decide where to put this question; in broker? trading? Just decided to try here. I have an IB account (used to have two open) and...
I'm trying to setup two charts of the S&P E-mini; one with 1-day, 3-min and the second with 2-day, 15-min. I made a copy of the CME ES timeframe...
Tradebolt wasn't mentioned but I'll throw it in the mix. Am just beginning to compare the three as a potential front-end to IB (if I even decide...
Hedge yes! Here's the intent. A system I want to try calls for trading a primary contract (SP500 pit traded) and hedging adverse moves short...

Thanks for all the suggestions. QuoteTracker looks pretty close to what I was thinking of but I'll let the kinks get cleared out first. Doesn't...

All my trading permissions were set correctly and greyed out. My account status had everything correct. Leave it to me to come across yet a...
Defer, A little history for ya. The wire was sent before noon on Monday 8/12/2002 (that's two weeks ago). By the time I got home from the bank...
Egusc, My account is recent enough that it started out as a Universal and the online helper at IB spent 1.5 hours this morning before forwarding...
