No. This is what the issue turned out to be for me when I had a similar problem last month.

Have been connected to their EUREX, CME and CBOT feeds for over six hours now without any problems. You may be having an internet/ connectivity issue. http://www.internetpulse.net/ Good luck.:)

Another good call - very nicely picked.:)

:D :D :D Ripley, You have my vote for being the funniest poster on ET. Please do stick around and keep posting. Happy to hear that you have found work that is more in line with your calling.:) EDIT: Once you have replenished your grubstake, I think you'll be back. You can leave the...

http://www.cbot.com/cbot/pub/cont_detail/0,3206,1213+14389,00.html Each contract is 5000 bushels. The minimum increment (tick) is .25 cents. Hence, for every tick the contract gains or loses $12.50. At current value of corn (240 cents/ bushel), each contract has a total value of about...

Good post. A good example of the above is Gary Bielfeldt - a "Market Wizard" profiled in Jack Schwager's original book. He started with less than $1,000 and turned that into tens of millions. He also proceeded to lose those tens of millions. This is how things turned out for him...

Very good call, sosa. Well done.

Ditto. Besides, I have grown to love the isolation (from people) that this type of work allows.

Exquisitely said, Buy1Sell2. Very interesting journal. I am not a 'divergence' trader myself but I enjoy reading your observations. It took me many years to realize the significance of what you said above. To me, embracing the movements of the market was really all about becoming...

You are getting very good advice here (particularly by gnome). I'll add a few points to those already mentioned by others: 1) Instead of getting one AGP and one PCI card, get both PCI's. The AGP slot is being phased out. 2) Nvidia is a very good brand. I also highly recommend ATI...

Nice work Rickshaw.:)

And plenty of them. Agree with you there. Just gotta let the market come to you. Cheer up and have a Bud. This bud's for you.:D

Mishwar, ES is traded at the CME. Visit the CME website and read all the info about ES and CME rules. It will be of much help to you. If you are serious about learning to trade the ES, you need to start using a good 'simulator'. Knowing what to do is not enough. Getting good fills is...

Nice call. BTW, rollover days can be a bit disorienting for indicator-based traders - especially because of the way most data-providers patch up the two contracts. Good luck. :)

r-in, FWIW, I have been running the same combination, XP Pro SP2 on four Pentium4 machines for over a year now and have not had any issues with this setup. All these machines also have ZoneAlarm Pro installed. A fresh install is always a good idea. However, do make sure that you have...

Yes. You can trade insults all weekend long right here in the ET chat forums.:)

It may be true but please do not disregard the possibility that the attitude of the former group may be the cause of the discontent of the latter.:) Kind of like the people who never get headaches but give plenty to others.

Yes, very nice area. Excellent cuisine & wine. I also agree with your views on Thailand. I have spent some time in Bangkok, Chiang Mai and Phuket. Low cost of living and very friendly people. Internet connectivity was not very reliable though. This was a few years back. Have fun.:)

I suppose "different strokes for different folks". You go all the way to Thailand to have your fun while I travel a long way every year to spend my summers in your neighborhood - in a house on Lake Garda in Brescia.:) It is not as inexpensive as Thailand but I have always found enough...

Quite true. In >95% of the cases, the biggest known threat to the account is the trader himself.:)
