Hey januson have you had any problems running Tradestation indicators in Multicharts? I've read it's 'compatible', but I was wondering if you could give me an idea if you have any custom easy language indicators that have given you any trouble. Thanks George

I am considering opening an account with Infinity. I looked around their site an found very little information regarding brokerage and markets available. Basically I want to know 1. What is the minimum account balance I need to trade a contract on the YM? 2. What are the commission costs per round trip. In one of the other threads the commission was negotiated? What would be considered reasonable for someone not trading with a lot of volume? From what other users have said the platform seems very good and I like the ability to simulate trading while I learn the nuances of the software. I figured I'd ask you guys before asking the salesmen....brokers:) Thanks Rossi Fan

Thanks for the replies. Learnt something new. I'll start trawling through the VSA thread. I figured tape reading would be difficult, well not difficult just time consuming to master. I've seen some of huberts videos on trade the markets and Souls here and I like the 'simplicity' of tape reading. In any case Im definitely open to any ideas and strategies Successful futures trading is a long term objective of mine, Im definitely not looking for a quick buck. I'll be posting plenty more questions

Hi, New to the world of trading. Thanks for all the information here and the great videos Soul. I have a question regarding software. I notice you use tradestation for all your charting and tape reading. Do other software platforms show the tape in the same way that tradestation does? Is it just a time and sales setting in other programs? If anyone has used or is using software that can display the tape in the same way tradestation does I'd appreciate it. I've seen tons of windows that look like the attached image, but none like tradestation. Is this even the right image? Im asking as it seems a lot of traders have 2 accounts, trade ten times to get tradestation free and continue with another broker. I'd prefer to have one account with a really good/fast broker. No-one seems to use or recommend tradestation as a broker. Thanks Rossi Fan

An interesting article/video doing the rounds. I saw the video about 2 weeks ago. It features Jim Cramer in an interview where he talks about how hedge funds use rumors to raise or lower the value of stocks. Here's the article Jim Cramers Guide to Market Manipulation - Mergers, Acquisitions, Venture Capital, Hedge Funds -- DealBook - New York Times Youtube YouTube - Jim Cramer and Stockwire.com Enjoy
