    The Surf Report

    Then an apology you will get! I'm always on the look out for good ideas, but so many times in the past I've taken the time to carefully read scores of pages to find an "empty" thread. It sounds like it's time for me to buckle down and read ALL the pages before the chat tomorrow. And btw-...

    The Surf Report

    I read the first 34 pages of this thread just now. My question is: what is the point? Did I miss something? Is there any actual information to be gleaned? I think it's a waste of Baron's server space to have 165 pages of threads devoted to saying how a system happened to work today. I'd...

    Matrox G450 with WIN XP?

    Jay, welcome. And sorry. I could have sworn I typed in Home, I guess only in my imagination. LOL

    Matrox G450 with WIN XP?

    To repeat: I'm running XP Home and 4 monitors. According to my sources the ONLY diff between Home and Pro has to do with big time networking stuff, and that's it. PM me if you have any specific setup questions when the time comes and I'll work through it with you as best I can.

    Matrox G450 with WIN XP?

    Win XP by definition is multi monitor capable. I run two (2) matrox G450's (4 monitors) with WINxp. Athlon 1800 with 256mg of ram. As to card memory, I've gotten into more arguments than I care to think about. Everything I've learned about this stuff (including speaking with a graphics card...

    I thought eSignal's data was so much...

    When I get a response like above, it shows me they're sincere about making it right. Frankly, I'm surprised. I'll let you all know how this turns out.

    I thought eSignal's data was so much...

    better than qcharts. As far as I'm concerned it blows. I only trade Q's, DIA and SPY. Almost every single day the closing prices on the daily chart are way off from the intraday charts. Also, when I complained about their tick filtering not working correctly, I was more or less blown off. I was...

    Modification/Cancellation fees are illegal

    qdz, What if you just started to begin to notice how what used to be not the way it was before really began creating the notion of orange tuesdays not suppressing them until you were absolutely sure. Right?

    Sound

    It's not inconceivable you're sound card has an intermittant that's heat related. You may be getting a dropout if the circuit that handles the output overheats. If you, try subbing a different sound card (even a cheapie) for a day and see what happens.

    Multiple installs of TWS

    Anyone know if I can do this: install a second TWS with a different server. I'm in US and trade during the day, but want to trade HK without getting kicked off the servers at 11:00 or so when they automatically shut down.

    Does War Make TA Irrelevant????

    News only changes one thing, the speed with which you move from one area of supply/demand to another. TA is working more predictably now than any time in the past.

    Anyone interested in getting together?

    Self-hypnosis

    Simple ideas can be deceptively powerful. Take trading as an example. Smart money consistantly buys at support, sells at resistance. It's incredibly obvious where to buy and where to sell if you look at a chart. But how easy is it to do that? The difference is all inside of you, not outside...

    Self-hypnosis

    The most important first step is a clear, precise statement of your outcome in writing. Next is removing any doubts surrounding that outcome. Remove the doubt, everything else will pretty much fall into place with the proper committment/effort. Removing doubt involves a process of changing...

    eSignal question

    Thx, some of this stuff is not very intuitive, but the more I play with it the more I like it. If anyone is willing a couple more questions: 1) is the first or last 60min bar of the day set to 30min, and is this changeable 2) if a title bar is hidden is there a way to double click to...

    eSignal question

    Just trying out eSignal. Do they have continuous futures for emini's and if so what is the symbol. Also, is there anyway to change candles so they are outlined in black, the default appearance is horrible compared to what I'm used to in qCharts. Thx

    Candlestick Patterns for Daytrading

    My experience seems to be very different. My methodology specifically refrences candle closes on 2 and 5 minute charts. My entry signals are off of patterns from these same time frames. This method is consistant and highly rewarding. I didn't invent it. A floor trader with some great success...

    Temp files vs. Temporary internet files!?

    The implication that a larger drive reduces or eliminates the need to keep the temp folder clean is misleading. I don't care how big your drive is or how much free space you have: it's a good idea to clean out internet temp folder, temp folder, and don't forget about the deleted and sent items...

    Candlestick Patterns for Daytrading

    Just to show how different folks can have different opinions on what works and what doesn't: I use candles exclusively on an intraday basis. I trade two basic patterns. But, the same patterns mean totally different things depending on where they are on the chart. I have a high batting average...
