Not intuitive which one you "should" buy or which would be best. Just determine how much of your $30,000 capital you're willing to risk on a stop, and buy your put there. KISS, as always.

It likely isn't worth it to put "any" money into an old T3500... except if you're desperate to keep running your software on a T3500 so that you don't have to setup and transfer everything onto a newer one just now, you could take a chance on buying another T3500 if cheap enough on the hope it...

You'd be taxed on $25k gains. However... your $15k is wash-sale losses would be added to the cost basis of future trades such that you'd be able to make up those losses tax free. In general, wash sale losses have no net effect on you overall... EXCEPT (1) may shift some gain/loss from one year...

Prolly trying to direct attention away from his boner.

True.

Xandman mentioned "mobo battery"... suggest you try testing/replacing that first before doing anything else If your PCIE slot is really bad, shouldn't run at all, not "run for weeks, then fail"... that's something a weak battery might cause.

Yes. Often overlooked. Sometimes you get intermittent, squirrely problems which are hard to pin down.... not uncommon for those issues due simply to low mobo battery.

For a trading rig, I'd forego the GTX 1660 (graphics power overkill for trading... besides, it's a 2-slot card... and you want run 2 of them?) and get something like the Nvidia NVS 310 or NVS 510. Low noise. Low power draw. More than adequate for trading rig. Buy your NVS cards on eBay...

Electronic parts don't last forever. 5 of my network machines were T3500s like yours... 2008 vintage. And while I expect workstations to run for 10 years (which is why it's a good idea to buy them off-lease at 3 years and save 75-90% of the original cost).... our T3500s are now 12 years old...

Ethiopia is upriver from Egypt. Probable friction over water rights. For example.... In the 1920s, greedy politicos in Colorado sold water rights of the Colorado river to downstream communities. Picking a numerical example off the top of my head to illustrate the point... It's like the 1st 10...

Too small to mess with for anybody with more than mini-money at play.... which should exclude hedge funds.

Unlikely. Hedge fund wouldn't be playing a stock so small that its shorting could affect the price enough to be worthwhile.

Kept Hellary out of the WH. That alone was worth it.

You can buy DP-HDMI adapter on eBay or Amazon. Cost <$10. Works, sound comes through to the TV. I use one myself.

Not possible. Mostly because forecasting a top is guessing when people are going to change their collective minds. However, you have a chance of catching a top with TA. Likely you will have to take more than one stab at it.

Yeah, well... so far we are not "fighting". More like, "letting them do their thing and hope they burn out and get tired of it before we have to take action against them". The mayors and police are letting them riot... as it supports their Leftist political agenda.

So what! Your "involuntary reflex reaction" to a stimulus is going to be ~ 700ms. Any monitor latency relative to that is insignificant. As a trader, you LEAST consideration should be any kind of "monitor latency".

Market today appears to be "front-running the Fed". If they say positive things about economy or anything else.... YEAH! Something is getting better! If they say reference anything negative... then YEAH, more Fed stimulus! It's a "can't lose market"... unless you sell or short something. :(

The hour is getting very late When I was growing up, I was taught to love America. My father was in the U.S. Navy, our family spent six years overseas as he served at a military base in a foreign land, and every day I would say the Pledge of Allegiance at the local school for military...

Intuitively, can't see why that would be the case. Text res should be the same for a 43", 4K monitor and a 43" 4K TV. A number of ETers have posted they use 4K TVs as monitors with no complaints.
