    Is it just me, or is the .50 drop BAD for the econ?

    Agreed, Bernanke is a Bush appointee so the liberal mantra must be "get that son of a B anywhere you can". I remember the "get Newt" days, then it was "Hate Bush", etc. there's no end to it... Oh and the economy sucks will be another repeated load of vomit from those idiots right up to the...

    Living and trading in Mexico

    This thread is bringing back memories of Tijuana. Talk about getting treated like shit.. I used to go over there to drink when I was underage in the US. The moment you appeared to be running out of money they would run you out of the bar. I recall some guy that was holding me off the ground by...

    Multicharts User Thread

    A data window would be very nice too. I do a lot of research by scrolling across charts and with TS it is a LOT easier to set up the data window with a nice large font and sit back and arrow key my way through a chart reading the data window rather than trying to make out stuff off the chart.

    Any motorcycle riders?

    Inexperienced drivers are a problem for motorcycles. Being seen and heard is probably more important than being aware. I had a car that was a tan color at one point, people were constantly turning right in front of me, I thought it was a driving fad or something until I painted it a yellow...

    Now I understand the Rate cut anger at ET

    You said: "Anyone living in the US is, by definition, long dollars" Then I said: "people in the manufacuring for export sector are not long dollars" because they do better with a weak dollar. In the 1980's with the dollar at about 85 yen the US steel industry was exporting steel to Japan for...

    TS 2000i help

    I think TS8 will export ascii format data and I know that TS2k will read it. TS2k has a program with it called GlobalServer that has the arrays for all your data. Your data feed feeds GS and GS feeds your charts and radarscreen, quite nicely actually, when everything is working. Look up...

    Is Bernanke a criminal?

    Inflation was a worry since I can't recall when... it never has happened much in the last couple of decades and personally, I don't expect much of it for the next decade either..

    Now I understand the Rate cut anger at ET

    Alan Greenspan has a video on Fox currently. He explains that people want the irresponsible lenders punished but if the Fed tries to punish them they have to punish everybody. The punishment will have to come from the private sector maybe, in the form of lawsuits.

    CBOT down?

    CBOT is not going to spend on maintenance, the sale is final, it's all deferred maintenance with them for awhile most likely.

    So what's ECBOT written in, Visual Basic?

    Fortran maybe

    CBOT down?

    I like the YM and I really don't know why... just familiarity I guess... these outages are disconcerting but can be dealt with ok.

    Frosty Strategy Development

    Regarding earlier comments on volume bars, I learned something recently. I could take an intraday strategy that was a nice winner on some volume bars over a few days and turn it into a disaster by offsetting the start time of the first bar in the series, give it a phase shift as it were. The...

    Linking bank accounts with brokers. May not be a wise idea.

    Those idiots at Ameritrade still had my information 8 years after I closed the account. I was getting Etrade statements long after I withdrew all the money and requested closing the account too, and I requested a number of times that they actually close the thing and send me the remaining two...

    NewYork Times online service goes bust

    Papers like the NYTimes and the LATimes and television news [keep the idiots glued to the set until the next headache med commercial is over] have been so dismal/uninformative/one sided/dumbed down for so many decades that they are self destructing even as we type. I've always preferred radio...
