    Better setup for heavy use Excel

    there isn't enough information to clearly understand the workload so that one can give you an opinion... but based on what you stated about the Core2 Duo being faster, here is what I would do on the i7-960 in your bios... - disable threading - disable VT and VT-x - enable Execute Disable...

    Looking for trading space in NYC

    hmmm... you do realize that this is the "Community Lounge > Hook Up" section of the board... and also, that not everyone is out there begging for money to trade but might just want to be with those that might be like mind and not uptight asses...

    Blocked from trading by 'Pattern Day Trader' restriction...

    T+3 refers to settlement... just because you sold it doesn't mean that it was over... anyhow, the reason for no funds is because you had no funds, as they had not settled... http://www.sec.gov/investor/pubs/tplus3.htm anyhow, IBKR always provides the best explanations for some things...

    Looking for trading space in NYC

    have you looked at regus, Empire, or Stark Office Suites? they might be cheaper, unless you find a firm that is willing to sublet an office or a desk.. which might not be as easy... or you can always just find a cheap studio and rent that..

    Trader P/L 2014

    I care little for his service, the point is that changing one's stops/targets, assuming one has already modeled their trades and has a given expectancy with each trade, just messes up the model and the probs... so while I don't subscribe to his service, I found what he says of value to some...

    Trading algorithmically a folio without stops (with IB), real $$$

    benchmark wise, one is either compared to buy-n-hold or against peers... so you could look at any three depending on the type of fund... broad market (S&P), MSCI Country Index, Hedge Fund Index... that is what I've seen for funds... lastly, for margin calls using PM, it comes down to position...

    Trading algorithmically a folio without stops (with IB), real $$$

    if the account was $151K and you are using PM, you should have close to a $1MM for buying power... assuming you are conservative and not use it all... .5MM... anyhow, perhaps the position sizing algo needs to be looked at to ensure that one is not trading too big of a size... as to benchmark...

    Rithmic Announces Nonrenewal of Zen-Fire Use

    realistically, anyone that is with RCG/RJO can just call either of those two FCM's and open a new account with them without Mirus as Intro Broker and transfer the funds in the background.. a heck of a lot faster IMO... but you might be out of luck with the whole MC on ZF... I dont think RCG...

    Rithmic Announces Nonrenewal of Zen-Fire Use
