Funny that someone popped up this old thread now. I just rented a 16x16 office in a class B building 1 block from the Sears tower. Its a large space for one person but it's a corner office with large windows and the price was right. I was thinking it would be nice to have at least one other...

I looked at that site before - was thinking along the same lines - buy a small office condo. I didn't see anything I liked and the I am on the fence about tying up trading capital like that.... Thanks for the suggestions! -eLindy

Hi ofthomas: Thanks for the CBA suggestion but of course that's already done. Changing brokers is not an option and, frankly, I am very happy with my current [broker]. Thanks. -eLindy

Hi KingDong: Yeah, I guess there aren't too many independent trading offices in Chicago. So, for now it seems as if I am going to get shared office space using Regus or Amata - they have nice 1 person offices. I really have no interest in opening up a shared trading office - trying to find...

Hi FCX: Yeah, no changing brokers - current broker is Tradestation/RJO. Looks like I might end up in 150 N Michigan or 401 N Michigan...they're the best one-person offices within the budget that I've seen so far... -eLindy

Hi: I was thinking about getting office space in Downtown Chicago (River North/ Loop). I've looked at the shared office space companies (Regus etc.) but figured there might be an office building that houses a few traders in the area. Before I commit to an office environment that doesn't...

I like that curved desk - what kind is it? Looks perfect for the 270 degree display in-the-round. -eLindy

ummm....the performance of her fund according to Barclays paints a vastly different picture than what has been stated in this thread so far. In fact, it looks like, over the years, they ranked her fund in the top 10 in various categories multiple times. (Sorry if I've suggested doing this...

Hi: I'm evaluating multi-charts and have a couple of questions that maybe some users on here can answer. I can't post these questions in their support forum since I'm only a trial and tech support has provided answers of "NO" for them so I'm curious if there are work-arounds. 1. Just...

Not sure what you need it for but if you need it for back-testing then you'll want to look at compustat's point-in-time database. It gives you the data as of the date it occurred and not just the date it is applicable to. For example, 4th qtr earnings would be announced, lets say, January...

I've used a sonicwall for years. They are VERY reliable - but can be daunting to set up if you're not used to dealing with routers and understand technology. I just upgraded to the first model in the NSA series - I needed to upgrade because I got a superfast internet connection and the TZ...

Hey Folks: I haven't seen anything about this conference on this board so figured I'd post the info. It's being held in Chicago this year and price wise it's a lot less than prior years though still pricey ($1500.00 for 2 1/2 days). FYI - IFTA is a non-profit umbrella society of technical...
