further developments, heard back from Worden tech support:

another new finding:

I have only heard negative things about TigerDirect which have kept me from buying from them. Someone I know bought from them for a while and realized they were charging a monthly unreported fee to his CC. He later found out that they most likely sold his CC info to a 3rd party. I have...

More info about Blocks:

Still waiting on a response from Worden. Did some research on that Q6660, so far I like everything I see. Having some trouble finding a motherboard for the Q6660 with some tweaking options that also comes with onboard SATAII or SAS SATA so I can hook up a SSD or SAS SCSI drive. Any...

Tums, instead of a Xeon, somewhere around a Q9550 about right then? Q9650 worth the extra few hundred? The Q6660 is an attractive choice as well. I will consider how important the slower FSB over the Q9550 is (1066 vs 1333). jdeezero, always nice to chat with a fellow producer :D My...

I am no expert, but it looks like my CPU is not maxing out at 100%, and that there is a lot of disc I/O going on. However, take into consideration that in order to merely *run* Blocks on my machine, I had to slim Blocks down quite a bit, disable a lot of features I would like to use, and lessen...

Here is a quick screenshot from today with just Blocks running:

Thanks dcraig. I'll keep an eye on that tomorrow and try to grab another screenshot during normal use.

TM means......"total memory"? Keep in mind that is during non-market hours...it gets BAD during market hours.

Do you mean a single quad core dcraig, or dual quad-cores? This is not during market hours, but I just did a small test on my current setup (an AMD Athlon 3400 single core cpu with 1GB ram):

I'm looking to build a rig to run Blocks (StockFinder) from Worden. Worden staff had this to say about Blocks: I have a separate dedicated trading machine, so my platform would not have to be run on this Blocks machine. I might, however, run Firefox. I use Blocks to run real-time scans of...

NoD, I wanted to start a conversation with you on the topic of "characteristics of entering a long". Given the current economic environment, I feel that longs are a bit trickier than putting on "safe" shorts in the form of a fade. Would you agree that fading a sharp rally to the short side is...

Great numbers NoD. Keep it conservative and keep it going.

Very impressive day NoD. Well done.

what a comeback! nice work.

Have you considered scaling out or covering/selling half as it moves your way? Waiting for a violation or "clear reason to sell" along with scaling out as it moves along is what I (try to) do.

You must have pretty low standards for quality then. Your statement exposes your misguidance/ignorance to such a high degree that it is not necessary to even argue. Yes, America is like Ford, and that -- comrade -- is sad. I suggest you read this...

ZoneAlarm firewall appears to have been doing *too* good of a job :cool:
