85 Watts, this is an Intel i7, 4GB, 4 hard drives but does not include the monitor (which isn't attached to the UPS)

Interesting, I leave 3 machines running 24 x 7 and consume nowhere near that much power - you would need to average 500 watts 24 x 7 to hit $26 for a month at 8 cents/KWh. If you use a SmartUPS (that tells you current draw) or a Kill A Watt type device I think you will find that a PC...

If you use said office for anything other than trading (even rarely) then you cannot take the home office deduction therefore it follows that they would not expect every professional trader to take the deduction.

You mad bro?

False choice. A return that contains a schedule C has a higher chance of being audited than a return that does not (all else being equal). Putting questionable answers on the schedule C raises your risk much more - no argument there.

FV up, market goes down, FV down, market goes up.

Since its well known that filing a sched C does increase your chances of being audited I guess you are saying that the home office deduction also increases your chances.

There is a story floating around about someone who claimed the home office deduction, got audited and then brought in a picture of the claimed home office space and the auditor noticed a dog dish on the floor and disallowed the whole deduction based on that. You'd have to be really careful to...

Your indicators appear to be lagging the market rather than predicting it.

Current positions: 10-05-11 03:34 PM S SPX 1140.65 10-07-11 08:31 AM Added S equivalent of SPX pre-market 1172 10-12-11 03:02 PM Short third unit 1220 SPX Assuming equal size positions the current basis is 1177.55, so its about 40 handles underwater (SPX 1219 right now)

Or at least close out your short position! Shessshhhh

big jump, ballistic, explosive rise, colossal move, oh wait, you used colossal move on Monday and then again today, how repetitive. If you need help with fresh adjectives to describe your model's moves I can recommend this reference: http://thesaurus.com/ "enormous, gargantuan, giant...

You're holding short positions from 1140 & 1172 but are convinced the market is going to 1220? I guess if the market goes down you will be right and if the market goes up you will also be right.

Consumer reports found no laptop brand as a stand out in reliability. Apple had the best rating (9% requiring repair or having a serious problem) but even the worst, Dell, had a 12% rating and according to CR differences of 3% or less are not statistically meaningful I've had good luck...

???? I quoted your post and the date/time. :confused:

You are cherry picking data, FV was 1056 on Friday ("10-07-11 09:52 AM - FV 1056.75") - so it's only 40 points higher now....big deal.

The whole mid-morning update was confusing/unnecessary. A 7 point move in FV (1084 to 1091) is ballistic?

Bullshit Marketing Might be worth considering if you were going to overclock your rig and wanted to push it the absolute limits but otherwise just ignore it

Instead of responding to this troll, why don't you nuke his account? If you look at the inane threads he is creating none of them make an sense.
