Thanks, SL - I'm a bit "technologically challenged," but that sounds worth looking into. So far this morning, since making the changes listed in my last post, there haven't been any further problems - we'll see how it goes closer to the close.

Just thought I'd try to be part of the possible solution to this as well as bitching, so just got off the phone with Support. Here's what we did, and what I learned: 1) Installed the 10.2 version. This came out just this month and was apparently put in to address this freezing problem. So...

Well, I use only one Page, but have multiple charts and windows up on that Page, floated a cross several monitors. Wanted to do more then one Page, but the people at LiveRep said you could only open one Page at a time. So, the way to get 20+ charts, and 3 quote windows up is to put them all...

Running 10.1 - I think there's a beta tested thing, but haven't tried it. It was even worse in the last 20 minutes today - long freezes of several minutes at a time. I'd drop eSignal like third period French (one of the best lines in Ocean's 11) if the next jump up wasn't the expense of...

Just out of curiosity, what are you using now?

Anyone else having these periods where this freezes up for anywhere from 2 seconds to 2 minutes? This seems to happen especially the first and last hour or so of the day, so while my MM windows are scrolling away this thing just sits. All other computer applications work great, over 2 gigs...

Tony Crable's book, and Logical Trader by Mark Fischer (though straight out of the book, this is tough to make work, I'm told by a fund guy who works with Fischer).

It's certainly been "pretty obvious" since March or so of this year on that failed rally attempt (go look at the daily and weekly charts) where you and Hedgefundturkey (Day7793 whatever) were all screaming about "rally mode," and being long.

We won't know when we finally hit bottom. The first rally up will look just like another rally in a downtrend. Remember when that tool Hedgefundturkey was screaming about IBD and "rally mode" back in March? If history is any giude, the market may bump along the bottom going sideways for...

Agreed, LOL - how'd that rate cut work out for ya' "trad3r?"

Agreed - the last couple of weeks have been very good - lots of movement in both directions, great trading.

A real trader doesn't like argiung on ET because he's rarely talking to other real traders any more. Most on ET now are pretenders, fakes, and kids out of school who want to "get into" trading. While I rarely visit this site anymore, every few weeks or so, like staring at a bad car wreck...

Keep working on, yuo contradict yuorself, but are on the right track.

Nonsense. This sounds lofty, but only an academic, college kid, or grad student, most of whom don't trade and have never traded, would buy into this. This is fractal geometry at its finest. Go re-read my original comment about the fractal nature of markets. Also go read Benoit Mandelbrot.

Point taken - yuo're right, he's not too abusive, just arrogant and uniformed. I'm convinced that like so many here on good old ET, he doesn't actually trade. He might have 100 shares or so of something in an E-Trade account somewhere...

More bullshit. None of this matters if yuo know how markets work, unless yuo're trying to be an edge trader who's not on the floor.

Bullshit. This is akin to saying that markets move for no reason whatsoever, and that trades are taken "just to see what happens," or for no reason at all. This would be the definition of insanity (of course, this ET, isn't it). Markets move on supply and demand. If there is not enough...

Magna, how about tackling the Hedgefundtrader2/stock_trad3r/Day7793/etc/etc multiple, abusive aliases? If there are any threads that bring down the board, are inflammatory, and abusive, it's his. Check out the one recently by Hedge that starts out with "Fuck You" to everyone who's ever...

Very well said, and witty to boot! Oh, and I agree with you 100%!

Try Charlie Cottle at riskdoctor.com. He developed and taught the courses for Tony Saliba's company, ITI, in Chicago. He's also written a couple of very good options books.
