waggie, you have made your point numerous times. Please try not to bait people so much. It brings threads into non-productive places. Thanks.

update: I traded most of the day today. I was connected through my Verizon cell phone and laptop. I used TWS with between 15-20 symbols ticking and also continuously retrieved quotes and minute bars through the MyTrack SDK for over 70 symbols. The connection rate says 230.4Kbps. I am...

Pabst, are you and The Answer one in the same?

One clarification question -- when are the nine years? Is it a current streak?

I have to admit that I was laughing out loud when I read it the other day in the feedback forum. All who want to see it can read it there. Post a link to it if you want.

Or, whoever is the best at Photoshop wins. :D

Good point. I've been watching the price of this thing for almost six months now for fun and if anything, it has been going up. They seem to be increasing their profit margins.

Guys, please try to keep the language and attacks to a minimum so this thread won't have to be moved to chit-chat. Thanks.

Where's the option for somewhere in the middle of these two extremes?

I deleted the one from "trading", but can't do anything about the other forums this person chose.

I have. My understanding is that you are supposed to build it from bars (30 minutes in what I read). Just calculate the high and low for each bar and plot all of the prices in between. Then you won't have to worry about missed prices.

I really want to get a WUXGA (widescreen 1900x1200) laptop, but my current one won't die so I can't really justify it yet. That would be my recommendation.

As long as you're not using up your ultra-limited bandwidth by surfing the net at the same time and are watching a limited number of symbols. Streaming quote data is pretty low bandwidth. Obviously, you wouldn't want this to be your every day trading platform, but it works in a pinch. In...

There is a pretty good possibility they wouldn't have the appropriate firewall port open (4000 I think). This would be the first thing to suspect if you get stuck on the login screen. There's also the fact that if you do get going, your account number can appear in different files in the...

If you are looking for low-cost, then there are these two, both under $100/month: http://www.mytrack.com/sdk/ http://www.iqfeed.net/dev/index.cfm If you are looking for more expensive feeds, there are a bunch more. Try looking through the archives, searching for iqfeed or mytrack. You...

Welcome to Elite Trader. Weekends are typically slower on here. Don't be discouraged.

I don't get asked. I don't know one person who trades. This is one reason I enjoy this board. It's the only chance I get to interact with other traders.

You're killing me with your typing. See the difference between you're and your? Maybe you need "Grammar from A-Z". dbphoenix was being helpful. Try not to be so rude in return.

I haven't been keeping up the intraday e-mini data in my database, just EOD. I trade stocks and use the e-mini data as an overall market reference to try and trade on the correct side of the market.

If anyone ever gets a chance to see the "movies" in the new Natural Museum of Science Planetarium in New York City, they should do so. The one that Tom Hanks narrates can make one feel very small.
