What kind of plan? Unlimited? Use a download/upload monitor to make sure you know how much data you will be transfering per month.

Oh ya, that's fast enough for your timeframe.

Thanks for the responses guys. This laptop will be for general use and won't need to be a workhorse so I don't wanna spend a ton. gnome, isn't it WUXGA for 1920x1200? Dell seems to list it as Widescreen UXGA, I assume they mean it supports 1920x1200 then? Because UXGA is 1600x1200.

I'm looking into buying a laptop for all my non trading related apps/files. I would like to use the external VGA to connect to my center 24"(1920x1200) screen. I talked to tech support from HP and they said they didn't carry a laptop that would support 1920x1200. So my question is, are there...

I was just replying to many of his posts. It really had nothing to do with the question and maybe should have been reserved for another thread or PM. Anyway what's done is done. stock_trad3r - If you really want to trade for a living, continue your search of knowledge, things will begin to...

Everytime I read one of your posts I pray for Mr. Market to swoop down and wipe your trading account out. Now you may be saying "Well that's a horrible thing to say". In reality it's the best possible thing that could happen to you stock_trad3r. Learning to "trade", invest or whatever takes...

Disk in drive error? Java error? Sounds like you need to reformat. I've never had problems with IB.

Hahaha that's great. Optioncoach is very wise indeed. Follow his wisdom if you want to BOOK a lot in profits.

Some good advice from the thread. My 2 cents... - If the guy is asking how to keep a computer clean he shouldn't be trying to overclock his system. Even if he did, why bother? Anything new these days is fast enough to run your trading programs unless you have 200 charts up. - Run disk...

stock_trad3r would you please STFU. Everyone on earth knows your damn stance on the market. Please for the love of God just shut up. You clutter up the board with your useless cheering and drivel. Save bandwidth for real conversations.

Yep by now he should be a bitter, jaded old man :p

giles - Send me a PM with some specific questions. Thanks.

Trading software? Just TWS standalone and Medved QuoteTracker.

No you don't need one right now unless you feel like you want to keep up to the newest tech. (In which case you might wanna fork over the big $$$ for a quad core...j/k) I run an AMD 3000+, 1GB RAM, (2) 128MB Vid Cards and I am fine for now... But if you want to spoil yourself go ahead :D

Personally I haven't run Vista yet. I won't on my trading computer until they get some more bugs worked out of it. Vista will be a bit slower compared to XP because of it's new sleek design etc etc. Honestly, I doubt you would notice it being slower on your machine though ... you have fast...

Yes that computer will run Vista. You don't NEED dual core. Do you find your computer slow in any way?

15K in 4 months? :eek: No wonder you're flipping out. You probably didn't even make a rational trade. Take your size down ... wayyy down. You have to start very small and when you're profitable and comfortable move your size up, then repeat. I've been trading about 4 months as well, only...

Slick, Take time off. Review all your trades. Pick up 'Trading In The Zone' by Mark Douglas and really work on the psychological aspect of trading.

I would like to thank 2manywhiners for spending an endless amount of time and effort helping me out. My first 3 months of trading have been pretty much even, some of that can be contributed to 2many. I will be able to dedicate more time to trading so hopefully I will keep improving through...

Congratulations Uptik :eek:
