    F-ing Tradestation down again...

    You've got a very good point there, chinook! TS is an awesome platform, this cannot be disputed - I use it everyday. But the symbol scanning must take enormous bandwidth! Imagine all the upstream/request + downstream, requested by thousands and thousands of users n'sync! This just has to...

    F-ing Tradestation down again...

    I've had that plenty of times with TS. Shame that. TS feed is not very reliable. I'd recommend you use eSignal as a backup / addition / solely if you trade very short-term, they're the most reliable feed available, and will be even better with the restructurization of IDCO, making eSignal the...

    Sometimes I think that trading is a very bad job

    Thanks a lot. I have added Nietzsche, Pascal and Freud to my list - Although they are amongst my top favourite authors, they are possibly not as monumental even as the other ones I mentioned. I have Nietzsche and Freud "The Interpretation of Dreams" on my bedside table. I read them in both...

    Sometimes I think that trading is a very bad job

    I don't think you're trying to be fair. You've criticized me with a bunch of invalid and subjective statements, that's fact. Regarding "Zero-Sum society", YES, it IS as zero-sum society. The only reason why it grows is because we're growing more population are exploiting more resources...

    Sometimes I think that trading is a very bad job

    Well, if I've read so many books, chances are I have had a few more different opinions to refer to. "Extended life given by Medical Science" is completely relative and still doesn't mean that life is given by science. Today, we have reached a point where more life is being destroyed by...

    Sometimes I think that trading is a very bad job

    LOL! Couldn't you find anyone more pro-science than Carl Sagan? Do you have ANY IDEA how many books on science and creation I've read? I tell you something my friend, and I suggest you carve this into stone and hang it over your bed: Life was there LONG before Science. Science is an...

    Sometimes I think that trading is a very bad job

    I say it again: Trading is Trading. What you trade in makes no difference. Science is exactly the reason why the zero-sum game doesn't work in everybody's advantage, including that of Neanderthalensis. Science has created advantage. This advantage logically creates disadvantage for those...

    Sometimes I think that trading is a very bad job

    Disagree! Of course the economy is zero sum! Entirely! The reason you think it's not is probably because you're not counting the amount of time invested into growth. You think that economy grows out of "cooperation and mutual reaction". This is not the case. The reason economy grows because...

    Sometimes I think that trading is a very bad job

    I fundamentally disagree. Of course we create jobs. In the educational sector (books, publishing, websites), Finance Sites, Finance Forums (i.e. EliteTrader), Brokerage, Charting Software companies, Technology (who makes the monitors, computers etc?), Telecommunication (how do you get...
