    zero sum game?????????????

    To say that a company doing an IPO is the equivalent of creating a short position is hard for me to swallow. If you create something in your garage, say a sculpture and then sell it to someone would you consider that you are now short the sculpture? Not every sale is a short sale, to...

    Even the lowest end video card should have all the cpu horsepower required to graph 2D charts from eSignal. All of the focus these days is on 3D performance, doing 2D graphics takes minimal cpu. So while I agree with your overall premise (even reasonable low to mid-range cards have gobs of...

    Let's talk about "Real Forex Trades" Here

    http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1015235#post1015235 In the other thread, roberk (Moderator) pointed out that scoresomepips was the same person as Tradevector which Real Forex Trades then admitted was one of his (many?) aliases. So following that lead I simply did a...

    Maxtor Drive Died

    In my experience with ATA drive manufacturers, no, I don't know of any that would replace your used failed drive with a new one and you paying for return shipping is par for the course as well. I wouldn't take much stock in anecdotal evidence about drive failures, I have only seen a few...

    Real Forex Trades

    What I find funny is that I have made no comments about your claims, your system or you other than some trivial typing gaffs. Yet you automatically assumed that I doubt your claims and then you proceeded to attack this strawman that you created in your mind. What does this say about you?

    Real Forex Trades

    I'm honored that you felt the need to start searching through my old posts just like you did with Bitstream. I hope that when the day comes when I am "extremely wealthy" that I will have something better to do with my time.
