EMINI DAYTRADING COURSE
CHARTING SOFTWARE & REAL-TIME DATA

There are lots of charting and data feed products on the market. Most don't do what we need for daytrading. Having tested most of the better data feeds and charting software packages, my top recommendation is to use eSignal data, and chart the eSignal data on NeoTicker charting software.

But first, a little about eSignal data. eSignal gets its data directly from the exchanges, eliminating the middlemen and ensuring that you receive every tick, speedily, even on the busiest days. Supported by two ticker plants and 4 additional co-locations sites, the eSignal server farm of more than 200 servers is load balanced to manage traffic even during peak periods of market activity.

The eSignal ticker plant is manned 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. eSignal employs advanced range-checking algorithms and proprietary compression routines to better manage the data and ensure accuracy. eSignal was voted best real-time data feed 11 years in a row...Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities Magazine Readers' Choice Award, 1993 - 2003.

I'm a Certified eSignal Educator Partner. eSignal only endorses those instructors that meet their strict standards.

Call Scott Wilks at 800-322-1819 or 510-266-6000 Extension 1629, or click here to email Scott, or click here to go to eSignal's web page to order eSignal. If Scott is on the phone, leave a message and he'll promptly call you right back. Tell Scott that you were referred by DayTradingCourse.com and he will give you the maximum discount on your new account even if you don't take my course. Or, you can do like most people do and we can contact him from my office on Monday of your week and set it up in 5 minutes over the phone.

That takes care of the real time data feed. Now let's look at charting software.

(Note: The free charting software that comes with eSignal is inadequate for our purposes.)

The best charting software on the market, hands down, is NeoTicker at $1497 from Tickquest, Inc., or at a $100 savings from me at $1397. I am an authorized Tickquest Neoticker dealer. Neoticker charting software works great with real time eSignal data. That's the combination I use.

"Neoticker is "The Best" .. Hands down ... Their support is great." - M.S., SLC, UT

Note: If you already have TradeStation7, it will work as I have indicators and workspaces for it. However it can't do 30 Second charts, which is our main daytrading chart.

Thus the best combination for data and charting is eSignal data, charted on Neoticker charting software.

Neoticker also has a Simulated Server which allows you to play back data into any chart, tick by tick, later in the day. So for training purposes, if you can't watch the live data in real time, you can play it back anytime you want. That means you can see the same live chart you would have seen at the market open at 9:30 a.m. Eastern, in the evening, at say 8 p.m. Eastern.

Additionally, Neoticker has a built-in Trading Simulator so you can practice trading. Plus one more feature which you'll love, which you'll see on day 1 of your 5 days when we set up your computer.

Be sure to print out this web page because you'll probably want it for convenient reference to this information.

If you have any questions about data feeds and charting software, please call me at 770-382-9656 (Eastern Time Zone) or email us

I'll do all of the setup for you so all you have to do is use the software, which is easy. This will save you lots of time and frustration.

INTERNET ACCESS

For daytrading you'll need fast Internet access such as Cable or DSL. Ask around and find out which one is more reliable in your area. Our main concern is reliability.

If you can't get a good high-speed Internet connection in your area, such as Cable or DSL, get 2-way satellite. You can now live where there's no Cable or where you're too far from the phone company's central office to get DSL, and still get high speed internet access without a phone line or cable connection. The three vendors are: www.StarBand.com, www.WildBlue.com, and www.HughesNet.com. Of the three, my current preference is HughesNet.

In my area, neither Cable nor DSL are reliable, so I got a business class T1 Internet connection. It's expensive, but ultra reliable and it has very low latency. If you have an interest in getting a T1, just call me at 770-382-9656 and I'll cover how to get the lowest price and best service on a T1.

If f you have any questions about internet access please pick up the phone and call me at 770-382-9656 (Eastern Time Zone) or email us.

COMPUTER SPECS

Most of the newer faster computers work fine for daytrading. I recommend 1 Gb of RAM, and a Dual DVI video board.

If you want to get a computer that I helped design, there's a rock-solid dealer near me. I helped them design daytrading workstation computers. Click here www.daytradingcourse.com/computer if you're interested in getting a new computer. If you have any questions about this, please call me at 770-382-9656 (Eastern Time Zone) or email us.

Laptop computers are fine if they have a monitor with a minimum resolution of 1280 X 800. You wouldn't be satisfied with a lower resolution laptop. See www.daytradingcourse.com/computer and Laptop Computer Specs at www.daytradingcourse.com/laptop.

It's important to bring your computer, as we'll be setting it up for you and using it for teaching you. I strongly recommend bringing the same computer you'll be using for charting. All we need is the box. No monitor, no keyboard, no mouse, no cords...we have all that. If that's impossible, then as a last resort I recommend bringing a laptop so you'll have a reference for the setup when you get back home. This isn't nearly as good as bringing your charting computer and I strongly don't recommend this approach, but it's much better than bringing no computer.

If you have any questions about computers, please pick up the phone and call me at 770-382-9656 (Eastern Time Zone) or email us.

MONITOR

Flat Panel monitors are now much more popular than conventional CRT monitors. The minimum recommend size for ease of viewing is 19" Flat Panel monitors. These have 1280 X 1024 native resolution.

Due to recent price drops, my favorites are the 20.1" flat panels because they have a higher resolution of 1600 X 1200. A pair of these is nice. You can see what these look like in the first picture at www.daytradingcourse.com/computer

When looking at monitors, see our list of Common Display Resolutions to help you decipher the graphic codes.

Call me at 770-382-9656 (Eastern Time Zone) or email us if you have any questions about monitors or just want my current monitor recommendation.

Bring your computer...

We'll install the charting software you bought and set up your data-feed for you on your computer. Many people never get their computer set up correctly, but yours will be set up perfectly. If you want a new computer and get it from my local dealer, they will bring it to me and it will be here waiting for your arrival.
