not my style. Yes, maybe you can run 12 (or 20 for that matter!) monitors w/ one CPU for some applications - but not for serious trading. I have been trading for a living for many years (pre-bubble!). Todays trading platforms are serious "system resource hogs" (particularly TradeStation...

System Resources depletion makes it impossible to run 12 monitors (depending on many things - Trading Platform (I use TS6), number of java applications running, open IE windows, e-mail, etc). I've switched to WIN 2000 PRO and am now running 4 monitors w/ no problem. However, I've heard of...

How many monitors can you run off of one computer (w/ Pentium 4 chip). Thanks

I trade equity pairs frequently with good success. Do you feel using SPY and DIA is a bad pair?? Please expand if you have a chance. Thanks.

Who told him he was an equity strategist?? Pathetic. The only guy that I ever listen to on CNBC is Art Cashin. He's the only one that has any idea how the market works. And when he truly doesn't know something he utters those seldom spoken 3 words: "I don't know." -- He's also pretty...

Spiders and Diamonds?? Anyone trading SPY and DIA pair on an "intraday" basis?? Just pulled up some quick charts and at least for the lsat several days, it looks like they converge and diverge fairly regularly (albeit not by much). Thanks, GreenDog (not an alias)

Thanks for all the input -- very helpful. A few more questions for Nitro: (1) Are you using Win 2K Pro? (2) Where did you buy your system -- particularly your flat screen set-up. Thanks again. (I'm starting to think that maybe my problems w/ my 3 monitor set-up might be related...

I would like to upgrade from 3 to 6 monitors. I would really appreciate any input on the following questions: (1) Can I do this using one CPU (say a P4) and still have the system remain stable?? I use Tradestation 6 which is a huge System Resources hog. In addition I have several Java...

long PYPL, short .39 EBAY Risk premium high (~ 2.5 points). easy money:cool:

at around 62.85 Not playing this pair today. Covered all intraday shorts as of 10 AM PST. Expecting a violent PM rally. (NYSE TRIN approaching 5)!

It's obvious that many here are not experienced arb players. That's OK. Learn from this one. Green Dog - over and out! It's martooni time. PS - ARB plays are very simple -- if you let them be simple. Don't know that much about the Bright boys -- but I'll bet Bob is on this one!!

Today was the easy part on this arb play. Will keep an eye on the risk premium -- chances are it will fluctuate enough to trade in and out. ... if not -- then on to the next play(s). On M & A spread plays (as well as my normal pair trading), I set up my Tradestation charts and note the...

Spread went from ~ 68 to 61.63 at the close! Nice little bootie today. Closed out the "pair" at the close. Hopefully get a nice range established with decent volatility. Anyone else playing??

Should provide a lot of opportunities! :D
