I would start here: The Price / Volume Relationship http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/technical-analysis/6320-price-volume-relationship.html

I trade through IB. My stops are usually spot on.

I don't know who is telling the truth... statistics can be sliced different way to create different "truths". The Top 10 Percent of Income Earners Paid 71 Percent of Federal Income Tax

scary, isn't it. the scariest thought -- the domino is falling one by one, and USA is somewhere in the line !!!

how could you know certain reaction was due to certain news? is that a subjective decision?

how could you know the context has changed?

.......... what is context?

depends on what you trade, and how in depth and detail is your analysis. I use IB for datafeed... that's all I needed. YMMV.

I thought IQFeed is owned by eSignal.

my suggestions (pick one): 1. hit the manual... go through the examples and exercises. 2. post the code that needs help 3. hire a programmer

one of my chart uses 102 minutes. I am sure you have never heard of that either.

what is the theory of your analysis?

ES is very liquid, the fill time is very fast. If you are entering market orders, expect some slippage (1 tick for sure, be prepared for 2 ticks.) if you are in a distance locale (ie not in North America), you should test your internet for latency. if yo uare new to trading, you should use limit order instead of market orders. You will have better control of your entry price. Good luck.

you should put the article in a quote window.

how true. most people fail because they over analyze.

Re: How Much Weight Should One Put on Market Direction? if you are an option trader, NONE. if you are a trend trader, what is a trend to you? can you define it? describe it? articulate it? quantify it? visualize it?

is that a prediction? or verbal diarrhea?

you are easily annoyed?

2 basic rules to profitable trading: 1. don't argue with the market... 2. don't confuse yourself.

can you post some examples (charts) where you found inconsistency? capturing inconsistency is the 1st step to recognizing the consistent pattern.

some gamble, some don't. some have an edge, some thought to have an edge. some predict, some anticipate. some analyze, some postulate. some trade, some push buttons. such is the wonderful world of trading.
