Melatonin is the hormone the body releases associated with sleep. You can get it in tablet form to help sleep - Its natural, and non-addictive and works a treat for me whenever I'm travelling in different timezones, jetlagged and struggling to get my sleep cycle right. You can get it in...

My Dells have been running 24/7 for years - only time they go off is for upgrades. There is a school of thought amongst IT guys that switching PC's on and off is bad for them anyway and can cause reliability problems through component stress with all the bits getting hot and then cooling off...

yep, you got Interactive Brokers, TradeStation, Man Financial, GNI Touch... no shortage of big brokers available to us here in the UK.

yes - ppl often get this confused - the ping time is the transit time from your comp to your broker - the order latency is how long the broker then takes to process your order, risk assess it against your account, send it off to the exchange, confirm fill and send it it back on its way to your...

not that I'm aware of - at least, whenever i've wandered across the road from 155 after a good/bad day i'd always been able to walk straight in - its in the bottom of the gherkin round the back if that makes any difference. I've never been there really late tho, dunno what its like in the...

They do. 1000 applicants for an advert such as that is not uncommon at all, I heard.

I got the chance to work with a private client money management firm that was simply too good an opportunity to say no!

i'm using ZA latest version with no problems. you can check your system for vulnerabilities using the "shields up" service at www.grc.com - its very thorough, and you might be surprised at what you have on display to the outside world (and any script kiddie with a port scanner) "Shields...

the physical distance from the exchange will be the main factor affecting latency - the transatlantic hop typically takes 60-70ms when I've analysed my own traceroutes from home, for a total ping time of around 120ms using a cable connection and a US based brokerage. The best latency for CME...

I was trading at Marex/Refco till christmas. Nice office with good facilities, excellent IT and a great back office team. Marex are probably one of the best arcades in London, but as dogfish said, they can hence afford to be choosy who they train and back.
