    How much different Is forex from the stock market

    Forex is different to the stock market in that volume is likely to have limited or different impacts on the market ... largely because you only ever see a fraction of it. Forex is not different to the stock market in that if a trader studies it diligently then many methods that work with...

    How much different Is forex from the stock market

    LMAO :D 1. Another n00b who defines technical analysis in its own special way to exclude its holy grail. Pretentious? 2. And then says "any market trader will never rely one ta" ... which by definition includes his holy grail. Unsane or perhaps just stupid? Defn: TA = the...

    How much is the going rate for someone to build a computer?

    You're right about the installation instructions ... the pictures make it easy. I built my first one just before Xmas. Core2Duo e6600, 2G of 800Mhz ram, etc etc. It cost 30% less than it would have cost from dell and I could choose the best motherboards, OS, etc (no Vista crap if I was...

    Cheap, 'safe' drug kills most cancers

    It seems reasonable that govt would provide money for trials .... but: - how long does it take to get that money? - who influences the decisions? I would have thought that Bill was the guy to approach about this. A lot of things that were not trialled previously have been tested...

    Ad killer for IE7

    As a long term advocate of avant and ie I changed to firefox with v2.0 for one reason. And the reason stands. AdBlock Plus. I used host files. I've tried the IE7 addons. But nothing handles adverts better than AdBlock Plus. All of the manipulation of names etc is there but it does it...

    Serious Question: Can Stops Fail In A Market Crash?

    Assuming you trade short and long then a major market "event" has a reasonable chance of making you happy. 911 killed me on swiss francs but I made on euro and gold. Overall good despite having to wait days to close those positions.

    IB Secure Device

    The limitations I proposed were: Security device for withdrawals, wires, etc. Security device for action outside of the tradables you normally trade (or some way of limiting this). I would add the one that I think IB intended anyway. Security device for changing account settings...

    IB Secure Device

    Sal, Thanks for the replies. I don't trade an automated system but would prefer to avoid using a token for normal logins. If you can implement some type of strategy that either: - limits tradables to a predefined list, only alterable with token; or - limits tradables to only those...
