    Iterative Refinement

    Spy posted this chart on 5/1. I have a question on the color of 3 bars in it as annotated in the attachment. If based on either current bar open, or previous bar close, I think the color should be different. Did I miss the memo on the new bar color rules? :confused: <img...

    IB API disables TWS UI?

    So I guess I am alone with this problem? An update: I removed all traces of TWS, Quotetracker and Java last night. I reinstalled Java 1.6.0_03 and TWS 882.2 and QT 3.89a. It locked up TWS with my first trade. Had to use Windows Task Manager to close TWS. Talked with Angel @ IB...

    An Excellent Article From the NY Times

    Don I wish I would have saved it, but I searched out a DOE report on corn based ethanol that showed at a "system level" that it was a net BTU loss. In other words it took more BTU's in fossil fuel for fertilizer, tractor tilling/harvest, transportation, fermenting and processing than we got out...

    More Proof of No Inflation

    We need to quit the screwing around and embrace a nuclear base for all domestic electrical power. Fast breeder and/or thorium cycle. We have had the technology since the 70's... We should have been at 90% of our domestic electric base load from the atom at the turn of the century. We should...

    When there is nothing more to learn in life, its time to go

    Dear Cold, There are a lot of children that could use your help! Think about trading a day a month, or a day a week for them. Start that charity you talked about. Come and see them, help them with their treatment, with their fears. Share your strength with them... they sure need help...

    IB - Interest slashed in 1/2 since Sept.

    I have never thought of fine tuning this part of IBs account structure. But Chriz got me thinking... IB's Account Configuration states: "Base currency is determined at the time of the opening of an account and may be changed at any time through Account Management." Has anyone changed...

    Does any trader have Tinnitus or any other ailment

    I've had it since being in an explosion 30 years ago. I tend to run a fan in the bedroom and the den as white noise generators. If you concentrate on it, "it" gets worse... at least in my case.

    Hacking questions

    It's not a bad idea to ensure the "secure logon" box is checked. It is in Control Panel, User Accounts, Advanced tab, and of course, use a logon id and password.

    Signs you have made it as a trader

    Jack, thanks for the confirmation on the public charity as the preferred vehicle versus private foundation. It is time for me to think more like a board chairman or director and start organizing instead of being a lone wolf... Need to get enough 2% contributions to get above the 33% public...

    Signs you have made it as a trader

    Jack, it was my understanding that only a Public Foundation could gift to individuals under 501(c)3. Since this is a private foundation, not getting xx % donation from "public" sources, they could not make tax deductible gifts to individuals, only to other 501(c)3's. Ref:The public support...

    Software Used to Trade Jack Hershey Methods

    Perhaps I am the only one with this problem on QT, but I would like the "sweet spot" for picking up lines either smaller or adjustable. I am constantly getting line "B" when I try to click on line "A" to adjust it. If you are giving Jerry a JHM/Spyder enhancement list you might consider this...
