I have.... it rocked..... I remember gathering in the town square near midnight and kissing about 20 or 30 ladies who didn't have a clue who I was....... those were wild days.

Ok... I tested out both Skype and Ventrilo. I'm going to go with Skype. It worked beautifully. Unbelievably, in fact. One of the things I wanted to pick up is the squawk coming from that computer. I couldn't get it to come up on the remote side of Skype until I ran a patch cable from the...

Will this transmit any .wav files playing on the server computer at the office. I have many alerts set up for highs/lows on oil as well as cash close warnings and others. They are all running on the computer I will be using to remotely listen in. Will it do this or will it only transmit sound...

Thanks easy. I was just looking for Voice at the moment.

Do you think a regular Creative Labs mic plugged into the mic port of my sound card will do just as a good a job? I haven't heard of USB mics before. Is there a difference? I will be doing this same thing you are doing on the office end and taking a mic headset for the remote side. I just...

Jeez, Bsulli.... I'm sorry I asked man. You don't have to try to make me feel like a complete idiot by throwing out all these incredible options at me. :D :D Man... this is great. I have what I need now. I just need to test it. I will stick with just the simple Skype with auto answer and see...

Excellent.

OK.... there is probably a way to get it to answer every day. I won't be able to leave the call going on the remote side, so I will have to dial in every time. I can see how a macro might do the job. I will try it out tomorrow and see. I'm sure Skype has to go through a gateway in the UK...

Skype sounds like the thing to do the job. Do you know if you can just set it up to run on the computer in the room and it will automatically pick up the call from the remote Skype and go to work?

Great questions. It will be an open mic and speaker set in the room. No headsets in the room. It is not a big room, so I can hear everything over the speaker phone without a problem. I want to do this over IP, however. I do this over a regular phone line now, but it is pretty costly. I will...

Thanks easyguru, This looks like a Paltalk type deal where I have to subscribe. I prefer to have a Netmeeting type of application that is stable and a one-time pay deal. Maybe a server app that runs on the machine in the office and I can log in and it would just give me a feed. Can you...

A question for the tech savvy guys out there: Is there an application I can run on my computer at the office where I can log in and be able to listen to what is going on in the room and at the same time be able to talk back over IP? I will be travelling quite a bit soon and will be trading...

Brandon, I enjoy reading your updates and journal. It is obviously extremely difficult and insane to call a bull or bear market and not have the sense to change your bias if prices/volume prove otherwise. However, I was looking at an S&P 500 Futures chart adjusted for the Euro and it shows a...

Thanks Scientist.... I'm actually still in freezing Canada. I'm enjoying it though. I wish I was in my office today for that up move in the DAX though. I hope you did well today. Stick your toes in that ocean at your doorstep for me today while I freeze my a** off up here. :D

Constant Volume Bars. In CQG, you can set these to show up when the preset volume is reached or for a set number of ticks as discussed recently in this thread. I only really look at charts to make sure I'm not buying into double-tops/bottoms or other S/R areas. Other than that, I keep it very...

Kinda sad in that really good moves in the DAX only occur on economic numbers that are waaaay out of whack or some explosion or airplane falling from the sky or something. Other than that, it seems like chop then push then chop then push with the occasional correlation with the US markets...

I only trade the DAX from 7 am (Chicago time) to the close on most occasions. How did everyone do on the rally this morning after the US opening? It would have been a good day to catch a recording of the trading for my journal, but I'm travelling and don't have the horsepower to record on my...

Not to join in the argument here, but 100% a month on initial margin is not uncommon for a scalper.

ROFL.... The roll over witch has gotten me also. When I started trading my own money (I finished with the prop thing), December rollover had come around and I had a nice fancy rollover chart on top of my desk and calendar warnings about the contract expiration date. Of course, like a perfect...

Most prop firms now will charge a desk fee which includes the cost of the equipment you will use, phone charges, IT staff, software, squawk, news services, charting, accounting, etc. The desk fee covers the fixed overhead charges of the firm. I have interviewed with firms that gouge their...
