    ZN Tick Question

    CPTrader thanks for taking the time, esp when about to call it a day. The form: " ABC-XYZ where Z is always 5 or 0. When Z is 5 it means half a tick. X can be any number between 0 and 3, Y can be any number between 0 and 2." Makes sense if one assumes the maximum value of XY is 32 and...

    Internet Information Services IIs - spyware?

    Unfortunately IIS gets installed probably too much. It is not spyware but a service used at first by Frontpage and then later by Office. For the typical person disable it and the indexing service and the MS office in the startup. MSconfig and regedit are your best tools. --cheers

    Limiting position risk w/o stops

    If you are looking at the 2% case where a stop would not work, then the solution should be setup accordingly. i.e. If a stop limit with a huge limit will not work, then consider an option position at that huge limit, which should be close to out of the money. I would not get too extreme in...

    I am sure he does. He owns a business. What is the largest medical bill you have seen? My Mom got a liver transplant and had complications. Total cost about 250K. That was 10 years ago when ICU was about 10K a day. Probably 50% more now. Cheers!

    What is the best way to become rich

    Something everyone earning a decent wage can do in America. Work at being the best in your field. After you have $$$ if you have any self worth, you realize it is better to earn it than be given it. I know a guy who sells B grade vegetables on the road side. He works everyday, and...

    MSFT

    Got to break that pre split 65-72 area IMHO. Otherwise still in range. Solid fundamentals in software (42% margin) and scalabilty in manufacturing. Probabably not until Longhorn ships, 20 months or so. Cheers.

    Wi-fi Trading

    Wifi has too many issues for Day Trading, but if you just need a connection it is okay. Too many things can go wrong. Connection is just not strong enough for realtime trading. Don't be too cheap on only primary means of communicating with the markets! Cheers!
