Qcharts 4.3 (which I use as my backup datafeed but looking to change) needs to be stretched across the monitors just like TS. There may be a way to float the windows but i haven't found it. I don't know the answer for E-signal - I haven't used that in a while but last time I did, I could...

I got a bunch of emails with corrections and suggestions so I took another pass at this (some days it's just better to not be trading - for me, today was one of them). The document has been uploaded in "revision marking mode" or "track changes mode". This means you can see all the changes...

Actually, the backup program is running with full Administrator rights to the machine on which it's running - that's what makes this error all the more confusing. I suspect it's something about the way in which the rights are mapped between users in a workgroup but I sure don't know what it...

I started to write a review for TS 7.x and realized that it had gotten way too large. So, I just started this thread so I can attach the review and then reference it in the Software Review Section. See attachment - it's six pages (yeah, like I said, I got a little carried away). It was...

I'm trying to backup a set of files located on a remote computer. I've mapped a drive to the remote computer (drive X:) and I can now read and write to the directory and files I want to back up. However, when I run my backup software, I get an error message stating "A required privilege is not...

Does anyone know what the ES commissions (ballpark area) would be with a Globex Terminal? It looks like the base fee is about $400.00/month according to the CME web site but nothing is mentioned about the commissions. Also, thinking along these lines, does anyone know what the rates are...

Quicken Doesn't. I ended up having to enter those transactions as misc. income and expense in the brokerage account. -eLindy

Try "Trading for a Living" by Dr. Alexander Elder. He outlines the formula step by step - Page 135 - 139. -eLindy.

I trade through Tradestation and I have multiple accounts - 1 for stocks and 1 for futures. Each have their respective limits for active trades - I believe that for stocks it's 30K and for futures it's 5K. As far as I know, there are no PDT rules for futures accounts. They clear through Bear...

If you're testing using 15 min bars, turn on the "look inside a bar" option in TS7 (it's called something else in TS6 - I don't remember what though). With this option, you get better accuracy because TS7 turns the 15 min bars into 1 min bars internally and does the strategy analysis on those...

A couple of folks on TradeStationWorld..com tried throwing additional hardware (i.e.: multi-processors) at TS7 optimization. It turns out that optimization in TS7 is still bound to a single processor. Radarscreen claims multi-processor support but I don't know anyone that has tried that yet...

Yes.

I'm looking for remote control software that will allow the client to span multiple screens. The two that I've tried so far restricts the client to one screen so in a multi-screen setup, I can't expand [the client] beyond 1 screen to make good use of my screen real-estate. I've tried...

Nope - OCO/OCA orders not available in TS7. -eLindy

From what I can see in the specs, The WRT54G can connect multiple wired and wireless computers (or other ethernet devices) simultaneously to the same network since it has a built in ethernet switch with four ports. It also has a built in internet sharing capability (i.e.: all computers attached...

With all this talk recently about Worldco, Andover etc. I was wondering if anyone would start a new firm now assuming they could raise the capital necessary to do so. In other industries some good companies were started when chaos was reigning supreme - why not this industry? Along the same...

Does anyone use Quicken to track their Futures transactions? If so, how do you enter those transactions - as misc income/expense? In it's current state, Quicken only seems to know about stocks. Thanks. -eLindy

It improved. The Profitability went from approx -24K or so to approx -20.5K or so over the two year period (1 contract). -eLindy

The answers are: 1. 1849 Trades. 2. $4.00/contract/side (8.00 RT) for comissions 3. Some trades were held overnight. It doesn't make a material difference if they're not. "My guess is you're not going to be Jack's favorite fellow!" It's not my intention to contradict anyone...

Ummm...not sure that I'm saying anything Gordon. I just put the rules into TS6 as I understand them and see what pops out. I could very well be way off the mark in my understanding of how the rules should work - that's why I provided the code and my interpretation of the rules. -eLindy
