    My Simple CNBC Strategy

    About 196,166 people. I know this because my rank reported on the contest web site is 11770, or in the top 6%. How I'll knock out 11769 people sounds like an impossible task :cool:

    You may be on to something. Take a look at really active stocks also, such as QQQQ, etc. Look at the open tomorrow, as you suggest. remiKane suggested that more ram is good. It sure could not hurt :)

    You're right, I misunderstood. Almost did that too, but then the quad core came along. Originally wanted to go with 2 quad cores for a total of 8 CPU's, but Digital Tigers only had 1.86GHz quad cores for the Stratosphere Elite hardware and I wanted to avoid what remiKane was talking about...

    Great to hear Bandit! Very cool :cool: I knew my pc was overloaded in the past by watching the windows task manager performance and program behavior. Consider having a look at that. Here's my quad core shot. Where in the past I was pegging at 100% with my old PC, now the very worst...

    Agree with you minmike. Going to battle with daytrading requires an edge. I watch about 60 pre-selected stocks at every open, looking for opportunities. I "pick my stocks" before the market opens. Bought the quad core because I had the money to burn. After reading about it and watching...

    Thanks for the concern, but you have no clue and have not read my prior posts. I have other software running while trading. I make money trading to purchase extreme hardware and that is all that matters. Now I have someone that thinks they are a computer expert telling me my setup is not...

    Thanks. ScottradeELITE works fine now. There was a time when it liked to freeze and dump on me. It's been working fine for almost a year now after they did a revision on the software and cleaned it up. Almost went over to Tradestation but then realized all the programmability would not...

    I like that idea, six 30's!!! :cool: Let us know about the bandwidth of Tradestation. I use Scottrade and finally narrowed my bottle-neck down to them! Bought the fast quad-core PC and even paid more money to the cable company for an even faster connection. I keep my data on a diet as...

    No problem with this at all. This is why I bought the 2407WFP's. They have huge 178/178 degree view angle. The older dells (05's) have much worse view angle (175/130) than the 07's. Try to get the newer versions if possible. The 07's are also faster. This is also why Digital Tigers uses...

    Yes sulli, but geeks that trade and make money to buy even more trading hardware! Since the wife is out of town Bandit, it looks like you're on vacation :D

    The 12 volt fans are 3.5", single bearing. Added finger guards. The resistors are 56 ohms 1 watt and two are wired in series for a total of 112 ohms 1 watt, and in series with the fan voltage. The fan actually receives about 5 volts, and thus the slower speed. These values may vary depending...

    Great! The pole I have is 22". This length varies depending on the distance between the two crossbars. Since you have a 30" panel, a 22" may be fine. I measure a minimum of 18" for my 24" panel array. I think ergotron sells a short pole, but not for this purpose. Since I did not want...

    Very nice! Here's a picture of the back of my array with over-extended arms. One can only see part of the panels as they curve around out of view. To overclock your stand further, add a 1.5" diameter short pole to the center of the stand as shown in the picture. The pole is not visually...

    You can give it a try. I just measured my stand and it looks like I can go out another 6" on each side (12" total), which may work. If one looks at my stand picture, it can be seen that the right arm is out past where it is designed to be positioned. The picture is before I had the stand...

    Welcome. Thanks for the Nview info. Just downloaded the latest display drivers for my three GeForce 7600 GS cards. I'm working on setting up the display profile options right now. Great idea! Thanks!
