    Yahoo charts are delayed and that's why they are ok for the daily analysis not intraday. I do not use them, but if a person is looking for decent charts for longer analysis, they are fine

    Quote Tracker is free. It requires an outside source/feed in order to give you real-time charts for intraday trading, which you should be able to get free from Scott Trade, during the installation process (you will be required to register with them and provide your url and a password).

  7. i know it sounds kind of corny but, what i do is practice consistency i set rules for myself based on past experiences and and i don't make the same mistakes twice. If i do than its my own fault for a losing day, I just started a new strategy of pairs trading and put a net day 4 outa five days this week. So basically stick to your guns and don't overtrade.
