    Ken This was the exact problem I had. Stupidly, I deleted the file EMM486.exe and removed it from my registry without thinking first. The reason that I removed it from the registry was that it was created just after I ran trader.exe and I therefor assumed that it would not affect my operating...

    Virus Problems

    It was from the ebook download that the problems started. I've already warned people on that thread. I've also ran a virus scan that didn't pick anything up.

    Yesterday I stupidly downloaded a program from another thread on ET. When I started my computer this am, Zone Alarm asked me if I would allow Remote Access for a .exe file. I realized that something was wrong and deleted the .exe file and tried to remove it from the registry. Since then i...

    BEST_ECN Missing?

    I was always under the impression that BEST was basically the same as BEST ECN but also included SOES. Since BEST was intoduced I never saw the point in having BEST ECN. I don't see a problem in getting rid of it.

    MBG Use the hot keys. You can program in both small price increments and big price increments. You can also transmit your order using a hot key. Sorry, just reread your post and realized that you meant rapid order entry. I can't see any way to change price using the rapid order entry...

    Edge

    My biggest edge is having a fully supportive wife. Both emotionally and financially. She has been a tower of strength during this long, long learning curve. I couldn't be doing this without her.

    Question about IB Symbols

    El Cazador You can check for symbols under the help menu (symbol lookup). According to IB the symbol is 'NCI' for the Composite and 'NDX' for the Naz100 Index. I couldn't find the S&P but I didn't spend much time searching. Hope this helps.

    Learning to trade by scalping?
