| | I am considering Tradebullet. I have 2 questions:
1) Is running TB in background while using PC for other things realistic or problematic???
2) Is it possible to quell TB fill signals?
3) Although it sounds odd, is it possible to set TB to perhaps enter NEW orders on BTC/STC, not just on BTO/STO? |

1) I did that a few weeks and it caused no problems. But I guess it depends on what you are doing with the computer. After some weeks I bought a cheap new computer for trading and I feel more comfortable with that, because I am sure that I can do with my first PC what I want without affecting trading. I connected them with a switch cable so it looks as 1 PC with 2 cases: I have only 1 monitor and 1 keyboard. I also connected them as a small home network. The advantage of that is that I can use the trading PC as backup for the other one.
2) I don't know what you mean.
3) No. But if you missed an open signal and opened it manually you can let the position be closed by autotrading if you synchronize manually at C2. |

"2) Is it possible to quell TB fill signals? "
so not getting bothered with fill signals while using PC for other things. |

Do you mean beeps and alert boxes? I never saw one after being filled. So I guess they can be supressed if they exist.
Perhaps you are ready to use the trial period? I think the program is quite convenient to use. I can have it running for weeks without any need to interfere - but perhaps that depends on the system you trade. |

What is the C2 Score?
Collective2 rates every trading advisor in its database and assigns a score between 100 and 1000.
In general, a rating above 500 is good. A rating above 700 is excellent.
Collective2 Ratings are recalculated daily based on the entire performance history in our database. The exact formula we use is proprietary, but there are several key variables that go into the Collective2 Rating. One of the most important factors is the length of time we have been able to observe the performance of the trader. Another key factor is the amount by which the trader over-performs or under-performs the S&P 500 index. Finally, the choppiness of the trader's results is taken into account. Certainly a more consistent trader will be rated more highly than a trader with erratic results.
