Set a daily target. When you reach the daily target stop trading after the first loss.

Thanks to all who contributed to this thread. IDS from IB sent me a solution which seems to have worked. here it is: Java will try to use as much memory as it needed in limits set from the command line. Even if the memory is released, it will not be visible in the Task manager. Java garbage...

Thanks kiwi Where do you find the info on the Java build suited to TWS. I don't see a mention of it in the Release notes

I meant by system crash that TWS hangs and stops working. I have to end the TWS process with the Task Manager and restart. I believe that is a problem because TWS operates slower and slower and then crashes. I don't know how much memory TWS will consume when minimized and I will try...

TWS Java Bloat or do you have any other ideas? I am running a P4 3.2g with RAM recently upgraded to 2 gig from 1 gig. In the last month or so I have noticed that the longer TWS (Standalone) javaw.exe runs the bigger the memory use to the degree that after 6 hours of trading the system...

So do you trade/invest on your thesis or is it just for interest? How many people on this board actually invest in Cramer's picks?

Do you trade using this logic or are you looking at stocks just for interest?

Beware of your assumptions. Word of mouth in trading is not the same a word of mouth in buying a car. Many many people on these threads are net loosing traders. They will blame everyone else for their losses instead of the actual cause i.e. their own thinking. remember, trading is totally...

Here's an idea Don. Why don't you sign up for the free trial and make your own mind up instead of letting some name on a website tell you what you should think. YOu will not survive long in the market if you cannot make your own decisions

Yeah Corded is the way but it is a pain. The microsoft laser looks good but does the laser make a difference? What causes the cordless to give so much crap? Poor technology?

Recently my cordless mouse died. I went back to a conventional mouse for a week and got quite bad wrist pains so I am in the market for a good mouse. Anyone got any experience with a laser mouse or can suggest a good ergonomic one? What’s the deal with this 1000dpi spec? Does it make any...

How about a feature like IB's chart trader. This is a great system which could be taken a lot further. (Click on the chart to enter orders at that price point. )

How about being able to change a default so that you can switch Layouts without having to confirm saving every chart and quote window. In my case of course I want to save all the changes all the time and it is an unnecessary delay during trading. If you could change the default when you have...

Somehow I don't think so or maybe I was subscribed to another qCharts for three years. A quick browse through the ratings here on et also shows about 80% dissatisfaction. When I left around Dec 2005 they were still using the hurricane as an excuse for the delayed data feeds. I did a quick...

Ha ha ha THis is the funniest post I have read in a long time. So your position is that everything was perfect before eSignal got involved? What a load of crap. I never had as many problems with ANY product as with qCharts when the jokers from lycos ran this company into the ground. But ...

So let me get this right. You don't know how to fix your credit. You don't know what a lease is. You don't know how to rent an apartment. But you are an expert in what IB is doing wrong You are an expert in what eSignal is doing wrong and you are an expert in what all the other...
