    Monitor Response Time

    Gamers like 5 mls or less. For trading, I don't think I'd woory about it (unless you're firing off bunches of trades per second).

    Pictures of your trading stations

    How come the majority of folks who have posted pictures of their trading setups have such tiny desks. I've been going through the thread looking for something and it struck me how small many of the desks are. Its almost like a contest to see how much stuff one can put on the smallest available...

    Trading CME currencies v Forex.

    The absolute biggest advantage is transparency and a regulated exchange which is what the CME provides. Trading spot forex, with very few exceptions, is a sure way to drain your trading capital in a very big hurry.

    Pictures of your trading stations

    I'm almost ashamed to post mine. One monitor. Horrors! But its all I really need (i've also got a laptop that sits to the left of the monitor, but its at a friend's house temporarily). I used to have a bunch (4) of monitors, but slowly got rid of them. My neck was really starting to hurt...

    Be careful with that website. My anti-virus program blocked an attack while I was perusing those pictures.

    EUR/USD vs. USD/CHF & AUD/USD vs. USD/CAD "Divergence" Trading

    This is a well known phenomenon, especially in the case of the EUR/USD vs USD/CHF. Google "reverse correlation" re: FOREX pairs, and you should come up with quite a bit of information. See below as an example --

    Darn! That was supposed to be a secret. Now you've let the cat out of the bag. Uh huh. All the brokers got together and conspired to do this. Controlled selling. Right :D

    Why Not Interactive Brokers?

    What I would do is quit trading spot and trade the futures instead. That way you can use IB's feed for trading and match it up with whatever historical database you want. There won't be any discrepency if they are futures. I agree with the others regarding IB's charts - they are next to...

    DayTraders Must Stay Connected!!

    IB Reuters feed

    Can someone tell me what exactly this feed entails. I assume that for just $2.00 bucks a month its not a live, streaming feed. Is that correct? TIA If someone can post a screenshot, I'd really appreciate it. I've scoured the IB site and cannot find anything substantive that describes this...

    Blackberry or IPHONE

    Wow. Thanks for the info. Maybe I did have a bad battery (I did ask about that before I got rid of it and was told the battery was fine, and there was no offer made to replace it). Actually, I'm not that heavy of a user which is why the short battery life really irritated me. Couldn't...
