Hi there i was just wondering is it possible to trade the ES and YM using your black berry or pda like TREO Is it possible please let me know you experience wit also Thank you
You might want to ask MarketSurfer, I think he has a TREO. I have one (Treo650) but I wouldn't use it to trade.
yes, i use the treo 650. it's great for quotes,charts, and monitoring swing trades. however, it would be very difficult to trade eminis from it. i use snap dialer with a laptop when i need to trade from the road. http://www.futuredial.com/Products/snapdialer/P_SD.aspx it enables you to use your cell phone's unlimited data plan without paying xtra for net access via aircard. its great ! http://www.futuredial.com/Products/snapdialer/P_SD.aspx best, surfer
Hey market sufer thank you for you promote answer who is your broker and what kind of software do u use for trading if u dont mind and how is it going Thank you I am planing to swing trade only I have account with Gfuture
i have used hillcast ( no longer exist ) and qoutrek by esignal for charts and qoutes. qoutrek is a great service. http://www.quotrek.com/ with the snapdialer and laptop set up you can use any broker/platform--i have even scalped eminis with xtrader from the beach. surfer
Hello market surfer Let say if i want to just make a trade and i dont have a laptop is it possible Or do i have to have a laptop to trade from the b berry or treo
I owned a Treo 600 and traded with IB's web-based TWS and chartbook.com's free, delayed emini charts. It was far inferior to my usual setup, so I used it only as a backup. Even if IB were to offer a full-featured Java client for the Treo, it would be too hard to execute the fast trades on such a tiny screen. The data speed would be fine, since the Treo features GPRS. In the end, I sold my Treo, bought a Sierra Wireless Aircard 750 (GPRS) mobile data card, and trade to this day using a small tablet PC and my T-Mobile connection. Even though GPRS speeds are like those of a 56K modem, they are sufficient for emini real-time data (provided you aren't downloading large files at the same time). I can and do trade from coffee shops, in my office, at home, and in the car.
