    Which stocks would you hold for 30 years?

    Great thread, I actually posted a question about a strategy where you buy the DIA and short the 30 stocks in the dow believing that stocks in the dow will fail over time. With that being said, stocks(not companies, its clear that the IPO's of the recent old money partnerships have changed...

    Day Trading Thoughts For Wed. May 13

    I have enjoyed Erik morning news briefings. He will sometimes have news that I have missed. Can anyone honestly say that these morning posts are worth bashing while posts about how goldman is taking over the world, or another thread about the PPT flourish?

    QCHARTS 6.02 Download

    Using () doesnt work either. Here is an example. Also pull up quarterly data of a few symbols and see if it look right to you. No one has the 6.02 install lying around?

    QCHARTS 6.02 Download

    Pairs trading is what I use it for. If you do a formula, say KO - PEP on a 5 min you dont get a correct scale. It rounds the price scale to whole dollars. So for KO - PEP for 4/14 the prices are either -6 or -7. The setting forcing 2 decimals place does not work. This problem had not...

    QCHARTS 6.02 Download

    The new version(6.03) is killing me, does anyone have the download for 6.02? 6.03 is slower, when you do pairs it rounds them to the nearest dollar, plus a few other problems.

    Recommend a 6-8 monitor setup

    I was told by front end software that having crossfire helps for tick data redrawing on level 2's when you have 16 on one monitor, and the other monitors are doing less. I will turn it off and see if it matters.

    Recommend a 6-8 monitor setup

    That should be totally fine for eminis. There are a couple upgrades that you could do that would make a difference. 1. DDR2 memory is so cheap you so go with the motherboard max, or near the max of 16(4x4). Even 8gig(4x2) would make a big difference. 2. XP pro might make a difference...

    Recommend a 6-8 monitor setup

    Also one other thing that I wanted to say is that when you get to 6 monitors+ it really becomes an issue of graphics cards, motherboards, heat, and power supply.

    Recommend a 6-8 monitor setup

    My understanding...could be wrong...is the the SLI Crossfire allows graphic cards to intergrate together so one supports the other. So if he has a trading application monitor that is redrawing super fast that gets supported by taking resources away from the other monitor that he is checking...

    Recommend a 6-8 monitor setup

    That dell quote was a serious rip-off. For the mother boards with 4 pci express slots make sure that they are spaced out enough to get 4 cards in there. With 4 cards and an i7, you are going to want at least 750w power supply. You could probably get all the components and build it...

    The real people at fault for this mess: The Ratings Agencies

    I also have been saying this for sometime. It doesnt make sense. A bank can only legal do something if a private institution says it can...ie slaps a AAA rating on something. It seems to me that when you have a profit that is dependent on a ruling by a private entity, eventually the...

    Pair Trading Platform

    LEK's trading software has a pair trader that I think will preform what I was looking for. I dont think there would be a third party problem. Too bad I dont clear them. I have never used redi+ but other traders have told me that its not quite what I would be looking for, maybe they are...
