Good Pat.. Quite a few seem to believe we have "a few hundred points" in Nasdaq coming.. How in the world this market can come to be worth as much or more than Sept 10 close is something.. Somehow it will get there.. If Nasdaq touches that Gap... can't say what I'll do in public.. About the government.. yes.. good to be very vigilant of what freedoms we lose.. we'll never be completely safe anyway.. The problem is the changes become permanent, even if their effectiveness is unknown/fabricated.. Remember how long we were stuck with 55. Rashid

Hi Patrick Sorry to hear about your long/mid term accounts. Concentration is very important in this volatile market. The TS platform seems very good...I haven't figured out how to program on it yet...but used the historical data(goes back to 1970 on daily)...to look @ some past bottoms. Their L2 is a hair faster than eSig...so I use their L2. The order entry is really easy to use after you get used to where the buttons are...1st 2 days lost ~2K making mistakes with order entry etc in the fast markets...but made up for the losses in the last couple of days. I find myself overtrading, making ~30-40 trades/day...with an average ticket ~20. I haven't traded 1/2 of today since I hit 40 trades...although I'm long VPHM. I like the order entry, as you can use many options, eg: show only, discretionary, PEG, Non-display, subscriber only, all/none, buy on -/sell on +. It has realtime account stats...although I can't seem to find the commission cost...I've been calculating them manually. I haven't figured out how to use trailing stops yet, but been using normal stops via HRZG & placing and canceling them in seconds. In the top right corner of the system it has a position bar which states whether I'm in the $(green in color) or under water(red in color), as well as the high/low $wise for the position. Overall, I like it...the speed of execution allows me to trade more effectively (although a couple time yesterday it froze and then unfroze in a second or two...maybe they were reseting their servers?)...BWDIK? Best of Luck, WHG?
