    Dual monitor configuration on Presario 5000 with Windows ME

    Tom_P I actually had a Compaq I bought and had a computer guru friend of mine gut it. Taking out the good parts while installing a new motherboard/case. Computers that are custom built are 10 times better than what you can buy in the store. rtharp

    best broker?

    On the software I find it outperforms RealTick. I can get just about any indicator I want on the charts if that was your question. I tend to just use candlesticks , volume, and the time and sales window for my trading. rtharp

    best broker?

    Echo is a Professional Firm. Pre. I was definitely sold on Echo very quickly after doing some research on the different firms around. Rob Keller is a great guy. The big drawback to a professional firm is it requires a stockbrokers license, Series 7, to trade with them. rtharp

    Bullets & Conversions

    You guys got it right I will add just a little bit. From DEf "A purchase of stock and the sale of a Call combined with a purchase of the same strike put = conversion (the opposite would be a reversal)." This is usually done by option players to exit an existing position. There is...

    broken trades

    Happens all of the time on the floor from my experience. One of that nature was so far away from the bid /ask spread though that Pre you would have lost in arbitration. Limbo they have a lot longer than an hour. It takes 3 business days to clear a stock. Usually something like that would...
