I was in the muni futures pit (which was next to the bond pit) in '94. Some older traders may remember the bull market in stocks from '82-'87. In the stock bull, the market would selloff the 1st hour and rally the rest of the day. Nearly every day it seemed. In the '94 bond debacle, it was...

Ok. Apology accepted.

I received e-mail spam from Transact futures. I make it a rule not to do business with spammers. Why reward bad behavior?

John, You were right. Today I went to their website and plain as day there was a link to "Remove real-time exchanges."

www.taxesfortraders.com I found Lenny to be very knowledgeable, helpful and responsive.

And I just received an automated response that tells me how to UPGRADE/ADD exchanges. :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

Thanks John, I'll try it. Meanwhile I sent them an e-mail.

Inandlong, I would have never figured that out. What you described allows me to add real-time exchanges, but it does not allow me to delete any of my existing exchanges. Thanks for your post, though. I've said it before and I'll say it again...their website leaves a LOT to be desired.

WTF! I just spent 15 minutes on their webste trying to delete a couple of real-time exchanges that I subscribe to. (I have Qcharts basic.) All I ever found was upgrade this or that. It showed me what real-time exchanges I'm subscribed to, but never gave me any options to drop any of them...

I've been trading on X-Trader for 2 months, and tonight is at least the fourth time I've seen crossed prices (bids and offers at the same level or levels). The bid/offer volumes are incorrect at most price levels and many of them do not change for hours. It has always been on the eCBOT. I...

Give them a fake name and address (or maybe a P.O. Box), pay cash, and buy a TracFone and give them that phone number.

I think the G550 is a great card and I've had no problems with mine. I have the G550 and a G200 quad pci in the same computer. Works fine. There are 2 diff. versions of the G550, so look carefully if you're buying on eBay. The G550 does not have a fan on it.

Check everything carefully. My yearly statement did not contain a 100 lot option purchase that was on one of my monthly statements. (I spent a lot of time using Excel to find the error.) Also, the 1099 had my dividends collected correct, but did not subtract the dividends paid out. Shouldn't...

thanks!

Did you find out the system requirements for xtrader pro? What are they? Thanks.

I received one of these clocks for xmas: http://www.gormangiftgallery.com/radconclocwe.html

Yes, great explanation. Isn't 256kbps upstream (DSL) a big enough "hose" for trading using TT's Xtrader? (assuming latency is ok) Sending an order doesn't take much of a hose, does it?

Thanks for your explanation. All of the internet tech terms are spinning in my head! I keep repeating to myself: "more bandwidth does not necessarily = less latency."

Cable vs. DSL...does either one "typically" have lower latency? I have cable now and am seriously thinking of adding DSL as the primary (or backup) connection using the Hawking dual router. FYI, the Hawking FR24 dual router has been discontinued and will be replaced by the H2BR4 within a week...

me too. :(
