    something wrong with IB tws 882

    Yes. Try renaming that directory jtsold and doing a totally clean install after downloading 882.8 again. riskfeed.jar on the 882 install is 68,006bytes

    zone alarm users

    shortie, Its still worth looking at comodo as a replacement. It will provide you much better security than zonealarm (I'm an old za user but haven't now for some years).

    New pc, with "issues"

    I like the "it gets warm and switches itself off theory." Get into the bios and turn off the temperature based shutdowns (after observing that the temp is actually ok!) Then perhaps run something like mem86 to stress the system a bit and after 4 or 5 minutes exit and check the temps in the...

    What is up with IB margin, how dare they entrap people

    Tums, Providing us with liquidity is good. They should be trading. In fact, every idiot and his brother should be. Hmmm ... judging by ET they are so my wish has been granted.

    Ib Tws Ssl

    Some people who were having issues moved to the latest beta (24 at the time I think) of 6.0_10. You might try the latest version: https://jdk6.dev.java.net/6u10ea.html

    Installing new power supply?

    You can actually add the wattages for the cards etc together then add a 10% safety margin. My pc is using under 200w normally, perhaps 350 under maximum load but the chosen 650w quiet power supply runs without the fan under normal load which is why I went to 650.

    Installing new power supply?

    Yes, you just plug it in. A quiet one is a good idea. I recently bought an Antec 650W Blue (not the std 650, the blue one) and it has an excellent set of modular plugs for different boards and interfaces you might want.

    Sierra Multiple Display

    You can do it. One approach is to install SC in a directory. Then install in another directory. That way the data directories are seperate from install point. Look in the helps - there are a lot of different ways to cut it depending on which one (or ones) you want to collect data. Note...

    Hong Kong markets closed 6/24 ?

    No. About once a year they get a storm bad enough to justify closing down. Today. All IB traders will have received a bulletin well ahead of opening.

    Bad Advice, Retirement and your Mortgage

    Its not always false. I spent 1987 paying off my mortgages despite good interest rates and everyone else buying stocks (some on their mastercards). I was a very happy punter in November 1987. Remember: trade with what you can afford to lose.

    The Truth About Commodities, including Oil - Complete Speculation

    I am with BuyLoSellHi. Why? Because so many people came out against him in the first few pages. This is just another good example of the ET contrarian indicator: if all you guys think the market has topped, go long (and vice versa). My god. You are the weakest link!

    Internet Explorer 7?

    Yes it is ok. But. You might get more from googling firefox and downloading firefox3. It really is a better browser. If you do that, be sure to explore the add ons (tools menu) and get addblock plus and a good dictionary in your language at a minimum.

    IB TWS chart

    You can chart options with SC ... I recall seeing people working out what the correct symbols for different strikes were but don't do it myself.

    Sierra Chart (google it) is a good choice.

    SATA Hard Drives.. high pitch tone?

    I have two seagate 500G HDs and 3 Western digital 500G HDs. All are less than 14 months old (one is 2 weeks). None whine (and I have sensitive hearing) but the seagates are louder than the wds (more of a thump when moving heads, click about the same). FWIW, if you don't like noise the...

    QuoteTracker Slowing down my Internal PC Clock?

    As much as I am unimpressed by Qt this really doesn't seem to be Qt's fault. Something very weird is happening with your system so it might be time for a fresh windows install.
