    Pristine ESP Alert System-any comments?

    As promised, I went to their seminar this friday in Irvine and I'm reporting what I have seen: 1) Their presentation was pretty good, except that sometimes they had problem with the installations and slides. 2) The presenter seemed to be very knowledgeable in Technical Analysis, but...

    Regarding the Existence or Absence of God

    Someone issue a restraining order against Mrs. Science and Mr. Religion from getting within 50 feet from each other. As for custody, the child of Science & Religion reserves the right to visit and respect each parent. Mother Nature and Father God need to stay divorced, they weren't meant to be...

    Scalpers Using Direct Access Trading?

    Nah, definitely not a new "craze", it used to make a lot of sense when scalpers would shave teenies here and there when Nasdaq stocks move up and down on 10 point swings every day. Now it's a lot harder but some are still doing it successfully.

    Scalpers Using Direct Access Trading?

    I don't see how you were able to scalp with an online broker? What was the average slippage on your trades? What's your turnaround time? I think in order to successfully scalp you are going to have to have direct access connection, you can't even choose your own order routing trading with...

    Data delivery-Frame Relay, what is it?

    Close El Cazador, but the CIR is actually not guarranteed but based on best effort because the Frame Relay cloud is so oversubscribed that SLAs no longer cover that kind of guarranty...but ATM cloud is a lot better because hardly anyone uses it except for DSL if you can get it (you must live...

    Building a new tower ???

    Be aware that putting together your own custom machine may introduce intermittent errors due to incompatibility issues...no matter how great your parts are, if they have not been burned-in for long testing period of times, you never know whether you will run into problems down the line...if you...

    Partial T1 Internet cost?

    only if your DSL / Cable is reliable, lots of people ain't that lucky

    Partial T1 Internet cost?

    Just want to point out that DSL does not get hooked onto T1, etc...DSL is the last mile (local loop), and they connect to the DSLAM and the packets are converted into cells and travel through the ATM Switch WAN through the ISP...this is the reason why some lucky people living close to the CO has...

    Partial T1 Internet cost?

    Just want to differentiate Frame Relay versus T1 (fractional or not), they are not the same thing. Frame Relay is a packet-switching WAN service similar to the old X.25 except they don't do they error-checking/correction because that slows everything down (which is why X.25 is pretty much...

    internet questions

    Yep, when you drag files to the Trash Bin and empty it, all you did was erased it from the OS's "memory", the data (the 0s and 1s) are still in the hard drives' blocks and until those blocks are overwritten by other data, it'll stay there and easily recoverable by companies or FBI...the only...

    This is awsome

    Cool but its usefulness remains to be seen...much like speech recognition system, it may generate a lot of "typing" errors...in the end it may be worse than simply writing with graffiti.

    I want to get into a prop firm... how should I do this?

    I think you'll have a few months once you are in the prop firm to pass the 7, 55, 63...not hard if you are serious about trading as a career, but definitely question the firms that say you don't need it (you don't wanna go through your previous experience again)...if you are joining a sub LLC...

    Lynx Capital Partners

    Those three points are probably the best summary of the entire thread! And I know some traders are asking, where would I begin to "do my homework"? My recommendation would be to look at whether the subLLC has a backer that's financially stable. Lynx Capital in this case is the subLLC, and...

    PC's vs Workstations

    Actually there's not much advantage for a single user to benefit from in using RAID or SCSI with today's ATA performance you can get from any desktop or workstations. RAID allows servers to have redundancy such as mirroring, duplexing, etc... Level 0: Provides data striping (spreading out...
