    Bronks, You got it made in HA!!! Europe comes on right after all the good prime time shows go off! Trading the US must be traumatic at first. In regards to computer noise, either you have been around a real noisy one or you have not. When you do come across one. You will see what...

    Alienware PC's

    Good question. I do not know squat about computers really. I have a Compaq Workstation right near my foot right right now and cannot hear a damn thing! However, I was on a trading desk and you could hear many of the machines. Some are just louder than others. Maybe someone could make a more...

    Alienware PC's

    An acquaintance of mine had a custom machine built by these guys www.tradersworld.com (Hannikers). They are on the east coast I believe. They have several different options for multi monitors. However, their pricing is not bad for the parts you are getting (IMO). I have never had them...

    You can get a actual dell workstation for 800 bucks. Compaq/hp for a little more. They both work fine. I have not had any problems with either. Some traders swear by the cheap systems. Some dont. I personally do not care as long as they do what they are suppose to.

    Is that really Coinz? I wondered what happened to that meathead. Whoever it is ---he is making a bad attempt to sound like an Asian.

    I have not had a pet in a long time and I have never owned a cat. Maybe something to look into now that I do not go to an office everyday.

    Does that Pussy Cat help you make more money? I have read somewhere that having a cat (or was it a dog) can bring more tranquility or something like that?

    I LOVE the HSI futs!

    Thanks for the Feedback! LOL...I have an IB account open and am looking for a charting program! Direct opposite of you! I can get my technical goodies done for Sierra (my indicators). So I was looking at it. This seems like a good option. It is so cheap of an option it scares me! I am...

    I LOVE the HSI futs!

    Jim, I am looking at Sierra. Out of curiousity, do you use ScMagic for data back fill? If so, how do they work? I cannot figure them out (pricing wise). I am trying to find a solution to hook up with IB for hang seng data. Sierra seems very customizable. However, I am not a techie and it...

    EurexUS, will it work?

    Yes that is right ---the Nybot! That does not count tho. They will never be competitive. They do not have a platform folks can trade. Unless, Cbot buys the Nybot they will not be a Russell contender. The Cbot offering Russell is interesting. Sounds like a fight is going to happen.

    EurexUS, will it work?

    I agree. The Merc will have to get competitive. Either way --traders WIN! Competition is GREAT. 4 exchanges???? Who?? I only count 2? I know Russell does not have an exclusive with anyone (like Standard and Poors does with the Merc). However, I cannot imagine one futures product being...

    EurexUS, will it work?

    Futurestrader71, Thanks for keeping us informed! I will not have the EurexUS ER2 up day one so keep me informed of what you think about it. The CME is debating a response. They are looking at the lack of success with EurexUSA's treasury attack and trying to think through IF they need to do...

    Hey now! Actually, I started trading around 1994 (shortly after I got out of college). I am not that old----or am I?

    I LOVE the HSI futs!

    I have the same question. Cqg does not offer Hong Kong data! I can hook up this Quotetracker and pipe in data from IB for free. However, I do not have any history! I guess it will just have to build it?? FYI, anyone looking for a cheap front end that seems to work good with IB...

    I LOVE the HSI futs!

    tradersavy, I am going to start trading this myself. Just got the IB account open. Never traded with them before. Out of curiousity, what are you using for charts? Did you get any backup for the hang seng?

    Health Insurance

    I just priced out a HSA through Fortis. It seems like a good deal. 87 bucks a month and I am covered on everything above 2500 bucks a year (2500 is the highest deductable you can have with a HSA). I can use my HSA money (pretax) to pay for everything up to the deductable or even dental...
