    huge slippage on IDEALPRO

    Whether the OP is a newbie or not, what he has posted demonstrates some very rookie mistakes - He's put on trades in two relatively thinly traded instruments at a time of day when European and Asian banks are closed, US banks have just closed and only New Zealand banks have just opened, and...

    Largest Larceny in History, today in AIG

    I hope you realise that the value of a company is not the amount of assets it has on its books! Something called 'liabilities' might also need to be considered...

    Graphics card for 30 inch monitors

    There doesn't seem to be any great soutions for setting up four 30" monitors. It seems intuitive that the modern gaming cards would work when two are installed, particularly if they are SLI ready, then they are designed to be installed as pairs. But you may need to just try it and see...

    Techno Dumb Question

    The term 'dual link' is a somewhat misleading and certainly poorly chosen term that just refers to the amount of data that can go through the connection between the video card and the monitor. That amount of data limits the resolution of the monitor attached to the video card. In other...

    Firefox bug

    In my case the banner ad was the normal size, it was just by itself at the top of an otherwise completely blank page. The issue only ever occurred on the ET site. It happened frequently, but not every time, when clicking on a link to a forum, and as described above only the banner ad would be...

    FX Pivot Players: Do you chart S4 and R4s?

    Certainly that could be the case if you were to calculate pivot points from the high, low and close of one particular session. However, most often the pivot points will be calculated from a full 24 hour day. Thus the full days range provides appropriately wide S and R, making it very rare for a...

    FX Pivot Players: Do you chart S4 and R4s?

    The calculation for S2 is PP - Range, range is (Hi - Lo), S3 is S2 - Range, S4 is S3 - Range, and so on... However, as common-sense would suggest, it is because of the trending power of forex that these levels are very rarely reached.

    Most respected PP timeframe.

    Hi bkveen, I assume by 'time frame' you mean which session's closing time is used to define the single day period for calculating the pivot points? I use 5pm EST as the end of day for my pivot points, but some traders refer to all sessions and just swap over as each one opens and closes...

    Firefox bug

    Yes, I was getting this too. Regularly (but not everytime) when I would click on a forum link, it would show a blank page with only the sponsor's banner ad at the top, and after clicking the back button it would show the actual forum page - with the same banner ad at the top. Since then...

    beginners question...

    Sure, possibly that's it depending on how the central bank maintains the fixed rate. If it does so by buying and selling on the open market rather than by restricting how and by whom the currency is traded.

    beginners question...

    Presumably because of interest rate differentials. If the interest rates in Bahrain were higher than the US, and you were to use US dollars to buy Bahraini dinars and put them in the bank in Bahrain, you would earn more interest than if you put your US dollars in a US bank. In the case of a...

    Single Click Trading!?

    That's right, the user input is not restricted to just using a mouse, and there's no reason why it should be. However, if you read the claims you will see that the use of voice or thought control would not infringe this patent.

    Microsoft hijacking your computer

    You could try editing the registry as described here: http://www.pctools.com/guides/registry/detail/1176/ But you should really download Service Pack 3 (manually if you prefer). So you'll get the updates for the last 5 years (since SP2) at least...

    Where Can I "Replay" the Day's Action?

    Ninjatrader (including the free version) has a market replay option. You just need to turn on the 'run market replay recorder'.

    Single Click Trading!?

    Actually, what I was saying was that to be not inventive, the combination as a whole (every integer in total) must be not inventive. To be not novel, there must be a prior disclosure in a single document or use that includes every integer claimed. Naturally many of the integers by themselves...

    Single Click Trading!?

    That passage in the specification is making sure that when the term 'user input device' is used in the claims, it is not read as only being a mouse - it may be any user input device. However, going back to the claims, you will note that it is an essential feature that the 'user input device'...

    Single Click Trading!?

    Hi ML_QUANT, What you need to first understand about patents is that the monopoly they provide is defined by the words of the claims, and the words of the claims may be defined by the words of the patent specification. In order for any action or product to be an infringement, it must...
