    Requesting Help Before Ordering Hardware!

    If you are really only going to have one monitor - then it will make no difference what so ever which video card you pick from that list in regard to what you see on that monitor. Seriously no difference at all - they all provide a digital signal that tells the monitor what it is suppose to...

    FX Incubator Fund Journal

    If this account balance is real, then he has obviously been very successful. So I don't know what you're all complaining about :)

    IB - Booktrader 906 no more single click!

    The TT patents that I've looked at (there are a lot of them, so it's hard to know which ones are being enforced against IB) explicitly state that the price ladder can be horizontal or vertical. Although none of them mention 45 degrees...

    Minimum Targets Based on Pip Spread

    I'm not aware of there being an accepted 'rule' regarding the ratio of spread and minimum target. I've seen some discuss the spread vs volatility ratio as a measure of which pairs are best for scalping. - I don't see any reason why you couldn't attempt to apply the same strategy for trading 6...

    EUR/USD Trades - Wealth Building Journal

    I had a look at FXCM's SSI - it does seem a little tricky to interpret as apparently the large trades are filtered out, and only the small trades are used to construct the index. Although the result does appear similar but more to the Oanda version, which isn't filtered. I guess it is a...

    China technology - a military threat to the the US

    The communication itself isn't instant - the message is carried by the photons in the same way as a normal radio signal or fibre optic signal would be, with the same speed of light constraint. The extra information carried by the entanglement is instant - so by observing one photon it causes...

    IB - Booktrader 906 no more single click!

    Unfortunately it isn't that simple. I would suggest that the financial instrument being traded is probably the least important aspect. The most important aspect from IB's perspective is that if they supply the software within the US they are infringing. If they supply the software to...

    Tax & fees for blogging

    According to the original article, the city sent out notices requiring the fee from those people who had indicated in their tax return that they had received revenue from their blogs: http://citypaper.net/articles/2010/08/19/blogging-business-privilege-tax-philadelphia The claim that it is...

    The Movie Thread

    Some fantastic comedies in that list. The most troubling selection for me would be 'The Jerk'. When I saw it as a kid, it was the funniest thing I'd ever seen, just thinking about it would make me laugh. But when re-watching many years later, I was very disappointed to say the least...

    IB - Booktrader 906 no more single click!

    The internet does make territorial rights a bit messy, but I think the problem would be that TT's lawyers would simply argue that IB, if supplying their US clients with the software, would effectively be importing the software into the US - which would be an infringement. It would be difficult...

    Review my newest EUR/USD system

    Hi Eugene, Your trade results appear a little dubious. To me the system seems to be completely curve fitted. The reason I say that is from looking at the number of trades and the consecutive wins and losses. It is obviously a day trading system, and trades on average 9 times per day, yet...

    200,000 traders around the world have already chosen InstaForex

    Hi Katerine, I note that on your website it states that Instaforex is an ECN broker, and as you have also claimed, that it is not a market maker or a bucketshop. However, you have also mentioned that Instaforex makes it's profits from the spread - I have also noticed on the Instaforex...

    IB - Booktrader 906 no more single click!

    Although I have been an IB customer, I'm not very familiar with booktrader as I always used buttontrader. Assuming the patent we discussing here is actually the one being enforced against IB, perhaps booktrader is infringing because it includes the option of manual centering as well as the...

    Ways to speed up computer

    It's quite common for a windows machine, especially XP and earlier, to slow down after a long period of use. - One issue that can cause sluggishness is fragmentation of the data on the hard drive, particularly the paging file and the registry. The paging file is where the operating system...

    Fair enough - not meant personally , but merely as a way of expressing my own frustration with what I saw as the same repeating arguments that you were posting, which appear to me as unfounded. But moving on, I will go through the claim construction process for US 6,772,132. The standard...

    IB - Booktrader 906 no more single click!

    It's not uncommon for the uninformed to jump to conclusions based on a one line description. All too often someone will read the title of a patent and think that's the monopoly provided - it's not, it's just a title.
