Thanks Rodney! I am going to try Stock-Spy out. Bob - I use VMware Workstation, so I can safely surf or install suspicious software on a "virtual PC". If I get a virus or the software is spyware, then I simply click a button to revert to a previous snapshot. In the past, I would have to...

Perhaps you can ask yourself "What other charting applications can do the same on a 32bit platform?" rather than wondering why a Porsche 911 only has 6 cylinders and not 8.

Sold, Moderator, please close thread, thank you!

I have a set of commodities tick data from like 1983-1993 on 110 floppy disks. If anyone is willing pay the shipping+handling on these, you're welcome to have them. $20 The list of files is attached, and comes with conversion utilities in DOS. They are provided as-is. These are the...

a setup like this with 4 x 22" LCDs should be about $1500 new. just shop around, buy a PCI dual video card, and a PCI-e dual video card, avoid Vista, and you'll do OK.

Many times I'll see a large move on the chart and not know why. It might be just a technical move (which I'll fade), or it might be a real news annoucement (like PALM's PRE). Since I'm not on a trading floor, information flow is lacking, and I thought the best alternative was to use something...

The program I was thinking about goes to yahoo, msn, bloomberg, reuters, cnbc, etc all at the same time so you don't have to navigate to 12 windows and enter the same stock symbol 12 times...

About a year ago, I found a program that uses Internet Explorer to access multiple websites to pull news on a symbol. For instance, if I typed the symbol "IBM", the program will access a dozen websites and get news on IBM. I can't find this program any more. Has anyone heard of such a program...
