spy options

I've found options on spy to be another good choice. The spreads are acceptable, they track well and they're cheap enough that you can scale in and out, even with a small account.

Good solution. Having the bar numbers show up in the analysis window takes most of the effort out of repositioning. Hope that's what you meant.

draggable indicator

Hi,

I have an indicator that begins calculating at a certain bar. It's a formula, not a line tool, but it has a starting point.

The problem is that there are hundreds, sometimes thousands,...

leverage amount

I wonder if anyone knows of a contract with considerably less leverage than the S&P e-mini, perhaps 1/5 of that?

To put it in practical terms, the typical daily range on the S&P is about 10...
