I seem to have lost the original disk that came with my Dell... somehow, my control panel got corrupted/ can't delete programs to install new version. There is a fix but it requires the XP Pro Disk. I heard it is available for around $100- but where do I buy it? How do I know it is...

Yes, spoke to a good NYC Lawyer that specializes in this kind of stuff. Basically, the agreement I had did not protect me properly, so a lawsuit would have probably meant throwing good money after bad. I plain did not expect the huge drawdown because he used to blather on a lot about position...

Not myself, but the famous (famous on ET that is) master Trading Wizerd, Guru and world class financier John Carter traded money for me once and went from a 200k account to a 120k account in a little over a week, nonchalantly ignoring clearly agreed upon risk guidelines ("2% of account max risk...

I called what New York Magazince rated as "the best computer repair shop in NYC", described the components to them and asked what they would charge to put it together. They quoted me $ 250 total, said it would take about a day... so very reasonable I thought... I see no reason why I would not...

Didn't I see you in the Subway Station at Grand Central hawking a Jehova's Witness brochure?

:) :) :) ! ... and, like somebody said, the Europeans end up as the houseboys of the Chinese...

Thanks!

Too much time (for me)... that's about what it takes me in Excel... hence I am looking for something that let's me do it in 10.

Thank you, just checked it out. Seems good for tax reporting, but my ideal software could do the following: - automatically capture trades from the broker or from Buttontrader (which I use) and trade stats (pretty much like Ninjatrader does) - stats to include: MFE, MAE per trade, per...

Probably a silly question, but do you have to add the cost of Windows XP to the above total? Thanks.

? What is a "clone shop"? a local computer repair shop?

Thanks for the input! Now all I need is someone who can put this together for me...:)

Thank you. 2 questions: how complicated is it to download your trade data from e.g IB.. ideally, it would do that automatically? Does it offer Fixed Ration Position sizing? Couldn't see that at the website? Best

This is about 8 years ago. He had a room then, and offered to trade members money... what can I say... made it back in the meantime. Expensive lesson.

It is. And I am quite sure I am not the only one. Now and then, when I see his name pop up or somebody says what a great trader he is, I might post my experience. And yes, of course I was stupid not to protect myself/ research better. So- be smarter :)

Snake Oil Salesman is a compliment. Carter lost 80 grand of my money a few years back (out of an account of 200) within the space of a week or so. He completely ignored any risk control settings we had agreed on. Perhaps he has learned how to trade in the meantime (there have been miraculous...

Bullshit. There has been very little built in the last 10 years. Manhattan is an island, with no room to go. One of my clients is a top real estate guy. He felt that even Harry Macklowe was not really in trouble (notwithstanding his huge loans coming due in February) and that Harry would be...

You need a bell that goes off whenever you feel the urge to trade a strategy that has a target of 2 ticks.

In Vienna. There is Mozart everywhere, even in the showers :)
