It's difficult to find a balance point between capitalism and socialism. Can you list the contries that have better systems than US and tell us what we should learn from them?

For those who are using Reflector in J-trader, how do you compare it with DOME? I think the static ladder is better. GHCO still offers DOME in J-trader.

The title of this thread should be changed to: Capitalism requires Democracy, which protects the interest of most people. Capitalism without democracy can become a disaster.

If you look at yield chart, the current yield's still at the same low level as March 2004, when the Fed hadn't started to raise rate. This makes me really puzzled. Could anyone explain? Thanks.

If you start a hedge fund, can you still trade your own account separately? Will that cause any legal dispute?

I use J-trade from Man Financial, the DOME feature is missing recently. Does it have something to do with the patent?

What's the advantage of using Excel for automation? VBA is not as powerful as .net languages, and most platforms don't provide an Excel API.

I agree. Using a DB with exsiting class library like ADO in .net is the easiest to program, certainly not as efficient as flat files. With flat files, you have to write your own class library to manipulate it.

Just curious, what kind of program you are running that requires such tremendous computing power?

Could you tell us more about RTS? I use both TWS and J-trader. Sometimes my order in TWS can get filled but the same one in J-trader can't. The next version of J-trader called TradeMark is likely to be available in the second half of this year, according to PATS. Hope that can fix the...

How much does it cost?:confused:

Of course, I would shut it down after market hours. The inverter is directly connected to car battery, right? Any inverter brand you would recommend? Thanks.

I am also thinking about using an inverter to get power from my car. Can it power the computer for indefinite time as long as the car is running? Thanks.

Does CBOT have any plan to support native stops? But right now, I have to depend on the trading platform to provide simulated stops. I am using IB and J-trader, which I do not really trust. When the market moves fast against you and your stop is not triggered, it can cost you big money. I am...

Generally, bond and stock prices move in the opposite directions. But when do they move in the same direction? That's the case for yesterday and today. Is that just a coincidence?

eSignal's data feed quality is definitely better than Qcharts's. The reason I stay with Qcharts is: 1. Charting is better. 2. All historical data is available, while eSignal has only 60 days. Mike, Please ask eSignal to copy these merits from Qchats. I'd surely switch if they are implemented.

Does it provide stop orders for exchanges without native stops like CBOT? How is it implemented? Does it provide deeper discounts for high volume traders?

How do you compare Refco Pro against J-trader? Why it is not as popular as J-trader? Refco is the only major broker that has adopted it.

I had short positons from yesterday, but closed them at yesterday's closing price before 8:20 am. Because I don't trust the stop orders provided by J-trader. CBOT doesn't have native stop orders, if the market moves in the opposite direction and your stop orders are not triggerred fast enough...
