bigg: That's just a scrolling example on the homepage - none of that is real time. Been there for years. 

I remember when ToS was solid and their customer service was exemplary - that was before they were bought by TDA. Guess I'll fund that TS account once Matt gives us the go ahead for his indicators.  

It's $99/mo for the platform. What I'm going to do when Matt says everything is ready is pay the $99, download the platform, trade with the indicators for a month using my TDA brokerage account, evaluate how I did, then decide if I want to open a brokerage account with TS, or continue paying the $99/mo to just use the platform. Open a brokerage account with a minimum deposit of $2K and the platform is free: https://www.tradestation.com/pricing/    Might be some minimum trading requirement as well not sure about that

Matt, if the Earning Calendar link updates automatically, would it be possible to also add it to the Newsletters Drop Down below Trade Ideas? That way we wouldn't have to open a Newsletter to access it. Thanks

Great news Matt. Thank you

I had it for a few months about a year ago - it was $99/mo and around $5 or so for data without have a brokerage acct. 

Matt, where is the link to Zoom room?

Thanks for the explanation. I don't have Stockcharts so I just redraw your lines and set alarms on ToS. Seems to work okay for me. I'm for anything that makes your jobs easier. 

Jason, Steve would tell you

big follow through on MOBL

Jason, Steve would tell you to trade your plan :-)

 erikvik, PRTS is moving about 63 cents a day. The range of that 1 minute candle was 70 cents, more than it normally moves in a day. Your spread  was 29% of what it normally moves in a day, which should have been plenty. In addition the next 1 min candle had a low of 9.16, so price came back in your range. Seems to me you should have been filled. Sucks that you weren't. I use ToS. I've gotten some REALLY bad fills when I've just done buy stop orders, so I've switched to buy stop-limit orders. I vary the stop-limit spread based on the ATR of the stock. For example, for a stock that moves $1 a day, a 5-10 cent stop to limit spread should get you filled, at least it usually does with ToS.  A stock that moves $10 a day may need a larger spread since it can generally move quicker in a short timeframe. 

Possible resistance zone going way

GDX not a sweet candle

vinylchild, you can trade ES

market extended

Posted by craigm on 6th of Feb 2020 at 10:05 am

vinylchild, you can trade ES Futures on TD (ThinkorSwim)- symbols:  /ES, /MES (micro ES). You have to apply for a Futures Account to trade them but you can still chart them without the Futures Acct

Great Trade Matt! Thanks for the early Christmas present ;-)

Nice trade, thank you Matt. Looking forward to when you bring the ES system online for members as well.

Matt, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
