    Does Ninja Trader and QuoteTracker also retrieve historical data?

    I have an IB account am considering using Ninja Trader and QuoteTracker but so far it seems like they only show charts for data that they collected when they were up and running. Am i correct in this assumption? Or will I be able to retrieve daily 6 months charts or 1 hour charts?

    Obama vows crackdown on energy speculators

    Well Obama is a smart politician. If he says the futures market is fair then will you think he will get elected? Especially when John McCain is crying that only he cares about cash strapped Americans? Oil Market can't really be regulated, I mean who is to set a price for the market?

    Intraday FX Player

    Are the spreads on EUR/USD same on CME as they are on OTC Forex, i.e about 2 pips? And do the spreads increase when there is less volume? I am thinking of trading currencies through CME. And what about other major pairs? Thanks!

    I have traded Forex and hate the fact that unless I place a market order, my order is sitting at the mercy of some dealer to be executed! But still i have always heard its better to trade OTC Forex then through the exchange because of the liquidity. What is the typical spread for major pairs...

    How can I build a system where one monitor sits on top of each other?

    Right now I have couple of monitors besides each other. But I would also like a monitor on top of another monitor! I don't want to spend a lot of money buying expensive systems.
