    IB TWS app closes on its own?

    I am pretty sure this is the problem. Is there anyway to prevent auto-logoff? I set the logout time to time + 2 minutes. A popup came up and I tried to cancel it, but it still persisted and shut down TWS.

    Why I am A loser

    Not too far. Used to live in Davis in 2005 (Davis/Sac City) also making minimum wage. This is not the case any more. It also took me a little over a year and $10,000 in losses before I figured it out. I am just going to be blunt so here it goes... 1. You are out of your league. You simply...

    Anybody know how to paper trade Tradestation for free?

    Running Ninja on a UBS stick ?

    What's the best gigabit router for home use?

    I got this one because of the QoS features and VPN support. It is targeted at gamers, but clearly QoS that is desired for gamers, works out for traders also. http://games.dlink.com/products/?pid=371&#DGL-4100
