    Which one leads, index or future?

    The cash index time scale in your chart, is shifted 15 min. to the right. The indexes close @ 15:00 CT. :confused: Or am I a little thick and it was a joke? :D

    3 Monitor Hell

    I had the same problem, only with 4 monitors and 1 not showing up. The only way I was able to fix it was by removing all the newer Matrox drivers I had installed, rebooting, and then going to Microsoft update, and letting it install the drivers. It installed a little older drivers, but it...

    Whats the catch? (Metastock for a buck?)

    It looks like a free 30 day trial on Metastock with the Reuters DataLink data feed. It's end of day software and if you decide you don't want the $59.00/mth subsciption, you can cancel it, but most likely the software becomes useless without the Reuters feed. SP

    warning about G450!

    Matrox recommends you uninstall the old driver. You can use their powerdesk uninstaller from here - http://www.matrox.com/mga/support/drivers/files/ftp_util2.cfm After you reboot, you might want want to go onto Microsofts update sight. It will automatically detect latest certified driver...

    warning about G450!

    No, Matrox OEM cards need updated bioses and drivers from the OEM. Which are sometimes very difficult to get, and if you do manage to get them, there is still no gaurantee it will work with your hardware (OEM's often use only predefined sets of hardware - motherboards etc...). So yes, after...

    Current Qcharts Accessment

    adding a third monitor

    You have the right idea. Don't waste your money on triple or quad cards. Most people have an extra PCI slot available. Just pop in another G450 PCI card. You can buy one new, for $69 dollars. I know you can do this with Win2000, just not sure whether it offers plug and play...

    Leasing exchange membership

    Thanks, Pabst, TG, that's very interesting. Appreciate your insights. It's funny, for an outsider watching, during a faster market, it always looks so chaotic... It would seem to be that much more stressful, than screen trading. I don't think there's any way in hell, I could possibly do...

    Leasing exchange membership

    This is very interesting to me, having never pit traded. What would say is your biggest advantage; being able to witness the order flow, or maybe being able to see what some of the "very large" players are doing? Which pits are you trading in? SP
