    Screening and Watch List

    Steve, I've been looking at that site, might give it a try. Had these lists built a number of years ago, when I was first learning. For some reason, I got away from that system. Now, it seems that I am looking to go back to a similar operation. Some one else had also mentioned Worden...

    I just opened an account at ThinkorSwim. Moving from OptionsXpress

    Wish that I would have found this thread before transferring my IRA. Moved it from Wachovia/Pru, and they hit me for about $100. They also charged me $125 for some account management fee, which was supposed to have been discontinued over a year ago. Trying to get a refund from them, but so...

    Screening and Watch List

    This has probably been posted before, but would like to build a watch list of optionable stocks, primarily NYSE. I have found the optionable stocks lists on different sites. Is there an easy way to filter them, and then save them to a watchlist or portfolio on a site such as yahoo, so that I...

    How much do you make a day

    Motion: It's probably possible, but as you no doubt know, it takes alot of talent and practice. If you are serious about it, keep doing the homework, and work, work, at it. Prepare as much as you can, keep learning. I say this not knowing where you are on the learning curve, as we are all...

    Computer lockup

    Hi guys, Don't think that it is a permanant fix, think it's either my Macafee or something else that's running on my computer. It has happened twice now, but only during the morning session. Think that it might be something with my ram needing to be cleared. Just guessing, b/c after...

    Computer lockup

    Recently purchased Dell, with Windows XP media. The only change we made, was in the bios, to recognize the ATI card, otherwise it would default to the Matrox quad card. I'll have to try the ram test after market hours.

    Just got my quad monitor set up running. Have a Dell 5150 with 3 ghz 80 gig hd, 1.25 gig ram, Ati radeon 300 e sx, Matrox g200 quad monitor card. Everything was running fine for about an hour. Then the screens froze, and I had to do a hard reboot. Was running, Quotetracker with charts on two...

    Slow quotes

    Can't help you with your situation. But it's taking forever to backfill my symbols this morning. Usually sucks them down on dsl, like 16k. So far it has taken 10 min, and only running about 200-300 on bandwith. Think it either Mozilla or my ISP. gordo

    Twin monitor problem

    Thanks WD, the card that I bid on and won, appears to be a universal. And I think that it will work with my system. It is a Matrox G200 Quad monitor card. If not, it will be for sale. Gordo

    Twin monitor problem

    One last, ignorant question. When looking at the cards listed as PCI, it looks like some have one notch and some have two notchs( one on each end), in the part that fits into the PCI slot. Does this make a difference with my system? Just want to make sure that I am getting the right card, and...

    vitamins mineral and foods good for trading

    Have to say that there is some great advice in this thread. Several years ago, I had similar problems that some had mentioned. Drowsiness, need for caffine to get started, etc. When I was up to two pots of coffee a day, that is when I drastically started cutting back. I've cut back to about...

    Watch List Features

    Wondering the same thing myself. My lists on the IBD and Clearstation sites are filling up. Would like to be able to create different lists that would allow me to scroll through the charts. Instead of viewing a chart, then going back to the list and picking another chart, etc. I used to have...

    Twin monitor problem

    My system is the same setup as the original poster's. However, I am currently running dual monitors flawlessly with only one problem. I could use more screen space. I would like to add at least one more monitor, for order entry and chat room if nothing else. A fourth would be ideal for extra...

    What is your single biggest fear in life?

    1. Failure, not having accomplished anything worthwhile. Not having left a contribution. Not having lived the life less ordinary. 2. Believe in self, learn to trust self/others, and take more calculated risks. Overcome the fear of losing. Encourage others to pursue their dreams. Gordo
