It's coming back. It will only be another day or two until it's back online. That applies to the broker ratings and book reviews as well.

I can't make the Vegas show but I'll definitely be at the NYC event. I would definitely be interested in getting together at some point during that show.

I have two suggestions: As mentioned already, you should upgrade to Win2K. Win95 and Win98 both suffer from memory leak problems which can lead to lockups like what you've described. The other thing you should consider doing is adding more RAM. As a general rule, you want to have at...

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I'll briefly touch on a couple of points that were brought up just so we're all on the same page. Probably the most important thing to understand is this: On the last version of the site, there were the words "home" and "discussion" in the green bar at the...

It won't be long now. The homepage is being revamped and when that is done, I'll put up the self employment forum. It'll be about one more day before it's done.

I think Babak hit the nail on the head when he said: "The interesting thing is that he hasn't noticed that 'dumper' plays are much better sold short in a bear market than bought." Playing bounces is a legit strategy but like all techniques, it's certainly not one that works well in...

I've made a proposal to IB that I think would be beneficial for everybody. Def has said he will present the proposal to the steering committee either tomorrow or the first of next week. The outcome of that will determine how things move forward. I've corresponded with def and he's said...

For the last several days I've been working on a new version of the homepage. The page will be more explanatory for new visitors but yet give experienced members one-click access to the latest threads and posts in the forums they are interested in. Also, private message status will be on the...

All three of those changes have now been implemented. Thanks for the feedback.

This will definitely happen within the next few days. Thanks for the suggestion.

After going through the Direct Access Retail forum of this message board, it appears that it has become a sales and support forum for Interactive Brokers, which was never its intended purpose. Elite Trader is not IB, and IB does not support this site in any way whatsoever. In fact, you will not...

Click on the word quote at the lower right hand corner of the message you are replying to. There will be a standard reply form, but with the message you want to quote already in it. The message itself will be surround by certain "tags", or words with brackets around them. If you only want to...

I went through the PointDirex demo. Frankly, I didn't see one thing revolutionary about any aspect of it, order entry included. It's a fixed-page, java-based product with very few configurable options. In fact, it seems to be extremely similar to tradescape's low-end product. I've never...

I don't consider programs like TWS from Interactive Brokers and the Watcher as trading "platforms". Sure, they might have some decent order-entry features, but to put them in the same category as Realtick would be grossly overstating their capabilities. TradeScape's high end product is the...

I have not received any other DNS-related complaints. Since you are going through your ISP's DNS servers, it's possible that there is a problem on their end end. Don't know for sure of course. I'm just speculating as to what would cause you to be the only one experiencing a problem.

I just want to say that I really appreciate your positive comments, and I'm glad to hear that Elite Trader has proved to be useful to you. The comments you guys make are insightful and the help you provide is sincere. It goes without saying that the the quality of the posts here at Elite...

WarEagle, A chat room is now more of a possibility now that we are on a new server. I'll be investigating the available options over the next few weeks. Regarding being notified of private messages, you can a have a box pop up automatically to notify of you new messages no matter where...

tom_p and ddefina, I agree. The brokers ratings need to be authenticated by the membership system. I've put it on my list of stuff that needs to be done. nemo, You can now adjust the number of messages displayed by going to your account at...

The distinction between Magna's and Bucky Lee's comments is simply this: Although the NT4 does not have bulit-in support for multiple video cards, you can still pull it off if you have third-party software to manage the video cards and multi-monitor functionality. Hydravision, the software...

I think you are wrong for several reasons: 1) In the case of an office-based firm, you are relying on the office internet connection to access the TAL, PC QUOTE, or Comstock quote servers. If a firm has a T1 line for all of the traders in the office to share, when it really should have...
